can't get enough of paul

glad the attendees enjoyed themselves. considering pvd has been generally subpar this year, it's good to hear he dropped a bomb set

now where da tracklist at?

Yeah, the cops came when people started yelling to be let in after waiting on line for nearly 2 hours. What can I say? It was an exodus of some really pissed off people. But if you hung out at the diner on the corner or just avoided the cops in general (who continually told people to GO HOME!), they started letting people in after the cops left, though admittedly it wasn't all that many people left. That was around 3:30, luckily for me since my ride was already inside. But definitely a nice set and that encore of Mindcircus was off the f'ing hook.

wow

WOW

WOW

WOW

thats all i really can say at this time. fuckin WOW


proper review to come after..10 hrs drive..6 hrs of work...rank1 @ guv...sketchy sunday


to all the NYTAs we met..u guys rock..so friendly and hardcore.


-spitty-

sick set, great TA turnout, more later when i get off work and wake up


Track of the night: Freefall - Skydive

wow... an amazing night, truly mindblowing beats from start to finish... surprisingly good (and different, by New York standards) opening set from Jerry Bonham, some nice acid, breaks, and dark prog, i was LOVING it.... if u saw me, i was the one with the white shirt and gold lettering "big daddy hustler" and the white hat hahaha... but yeah, PvD was just toooooooo good.... and, cmon, you gotta be not that smart to think you can get into PvD @ Roxy past 1AM, i dont care if youre the owner of ClubPlanet, it was just so packed, it was physically impossible to let anybody in....

....on another note, did ne1 see those business men at the VIP table along the dancefloor nearest to the main entrance (right by the speakers) hahaha i thought they were pretty funny... some 45-50 year olds in suits drinking martinis with 20 year old asian chicks, while bopping out to Paul Van Dyk, soo funny.... crowd was decent, a lot of FOBs but what canya do, ive grown used to it.... just put ur shirt on tho, please, i dont care how hot it is.... they shoulda turned those god dam fans on, it was just beyond unbearable... also got to say hi to Peri of Filo and Peri, really nice guy....

my tunes of the night

"summer dream" (White Room remix and then faded into original? mix)
"close horizon" by Tomas Bronzwaer
"pictures" by Maas and PvD remix
"i feel wonderful" by Cosmic Gate/Johnston dunno which remix
"must have been a dream" by Drax/Scott Mac and Mac Zimms remix
"yeah" by Steve Angello/Seb Ingrosso
"ghost" by Deepsky/Jes and Filo and Peri mix



some tunes by Jerry Bonham
"discopolis" by i forget who
and some more i gotta remember, i ID'd a bunch of tracks he player, he did a sick job... loved the moments of acid and breaks... too good, and very refreshing from a DJ outside of NYC giving us stuff we never hear in clubs

ok... here it is
GADDDAM ! ! ! !

just got back to Baltimre (10:50am) - left here at 9pm last night for the show... still haven't slept... I'm amazed I didn't fall asleep @ the wheel after dancing for six continuous hours...

met phuzzyfish12 (happy b-day again) - saw some faces that looked familiar, but was content to just dance my ass off... lol, I danced so hard for about an hour straight that I started gaggin' (and I was piss sober the whole time)

I liked how there were three 'acts' to the set... you know if you were there

Fav of the Night : Murder Was the Bass ! ! !

And Paul, once again,
Thank you

Damn I wish I was there... I almost decided to go last minute, at like midnight, probly wouldn't have gotten in anyways..

one ?...

what's a FOB?

I understand that DJ Eco but I actually got there a little past 12 and had to get on a seperate line from my friends because i was the only one with an online ticket (wasn't sure I'd be able to make it till thursday). And get this...They cut the line off for the backdoor right in front of me a.k.a. I was the next person across the street to go to the backdoor and guess what? They decided to shut the back doors and made it so everyone had to go on the same line to get in. So I was shuffled with everyone else in shocked amazement to the main line, and the rest you know: Fire dept.>Angry party goers>Cops>Lines dissolved.

yeah, around that time, they made the backdoor a smoking area and moved the front door as one and only entrance.... that really messed things up... the 2 door system was working well until that happened

emjay - real high

FOB: abb. for Fresh off the boat

So basically, asian (mainly chinese) immigrants who speak little to no English who feel a bit too liberal about the comfort level in a club and decide to go bare-chested, much to the chagrin of other club-goers . It's an eye-sore but what can you do? Just ignore them or, if you can't do that, just move to another part of the club as they usually congregate together. Please understand I'm not trying to stereotype here, I have friends who speak little to no English and they don't feel the need to go Conan in a club and do the epileptic-twist.

omgggggggg - what a CRAZY night...6 hours at roxy "home sweet home" what a SWEET reunion TA's and Roxyheads alike...packed to the BRIM and fuckin' hotter than *HELL* -- when we were outside chillin', we saw guys walk out with steam literally coming OFF their backs...aND you could feel the suffocating heat emanating from the door of the main room...but yeah the beats were banging, Jerry Bonham spun DIFFERENTLY than I anticipated but i loved it (!), and PVD...GOD himself -- oh man...no words can describe this night. Definitely better than Summerstage --

...and DAMNS if that wasn't the absolute SICKEST remix of Skydive - Freefall i've ever fuckin' HEARD!!!! with that, he blew the whole motherfuckin' place UP! And I don't have to mention the lasers here...i know everyone on here will have a lasting memory burned in their brains...red, green, blue coming from ALL directions, sometimes all at once -- holy sh*t!!!! armin at crobar/spirit did not hold a candle to this. GREAT JOB MADE!!! (not so great about the lines and the overbooking, HELLO February 2003 wtf :whip

Happy bdays to phuzzyfish and langxazn, awesome seeing eLipSe (u look awesome btw), avikonen and the TOTAs, reddog, hitokiri, mets4012, colibri... even NY1004 and Drummerboy (total SHOCKER!). great times

btw did anyone else get a little pvd pin last night, there was this girl passing them out, and i was gonna say no cuz i couldn't see it at first... but she plopped it into my hand. lol.

it was a good slowdown at 330... definitely needed it to rest up for the last 2 hours

Originally posted by colibri yeah i agree somewhat the tedious period was from 2-4 then at 4:14 a new standard of power precision balance and trancenergy began ... great seeing all of you i felt connected thentire night ...

what happen to you man ? you disappear ? what a insane night the laser was sick , yea around 4 it was pure power and energy. place was fawking hot , you'll start sweating just sitting down or standing, and if you dance you will be drenched. very nice crowd tho alot of teenie's but it was all good, when i was coming home, i was thinking wouldnt it be great if it was an "endless night?" anyways im glad everyone had fun and sorry to hear that they stop letting people in after 2, for these events always head out early and get in first , I got there at around 11pm no lines, i walked right in with advance ticket.

you didnt go ?

note on crowd....there was a nice brawl of some asian guys on the dance floor....those boys were getting lose!

I thought there were alot of sound factory types (i'm not knocking them)

roxy has got to be the best fucking club in ny!!!! at least that i've seen. i am shocked as to how much better of a venue it is than any of the other mega clubs. definately more like the guvernement than anywhere else in the city, which is awesome... they even had mass amounts of the signature guv cracked out asians of all generations!! such good vibes all round, i've never been surrounded by so many friendly new yorkers, COMPLETELY different than avb a month ago. perhaps that is because there was actually room to not butt fuck the person you were standing behind everywhere you went. lol did anyone else have to put up with the nonsense in the bathroom lines early on?? i think it took me about 50 mins to get a stall... all & all, i had a great time, though i am a little relieved to see i'm not the only one who thought pvd's set started dragging a bit.
