Is it me or wasn't it kinda weird everytime they played one of their tracks, they would hug? Not that there's anything wrong with that...

Too much of one thing is never good unless it's minimal techno...too hard or too fluffy when it comes to trance is 
. It's like me going to This is London and hearing NOTHING but vocally diva house all night, it would drive me nuts.
amazing show. even though i had severe back pains, a major headache i roughed it out and stayed til 5 am.
the first 2 hours were amazing. nice and hard the way i like it. kind softened up at the end up still was a good set
last time they were hear was deffinintly better and i was a little dissapointed that i didn't hear air for life. but still i give it a 8 out of 10
pics wil be up soon
Great night! Can't say one thing bad about it!
Mark Olivers opener was great! threw down some sick beats, not to heavy, good amount of prog, good set for sure.
Been waiting since last april to see Above & Beyond again, they definatly didn't let me down. Started the night good, heard black is the colour pretty early which got me pumped for the rest. When Cafe Del Mar was on I lost it, totally didnt expect something like that! Got nice and trancey in the middle then when they played harder in their last hour, it kept me goin, couldnt stop dancing.
Crowd was good, better than ive seen, a little pushy at times but what ever it was rammed everywhere!
And Happy Birthday Karim!!! Hope it was a good one!
Thanks for everyone who came: you're so spoiled to have such and incredible club & crowd here in Toronto!!
I'm still grinning after last night: i hope to be back asap!

above and beyond were AMAZING!! It was packed but there was more than enough room to dance around 2:30-3!
also played:
above and beyond - home
arctic monkeys - sun goes down (svd remix)
was waiting for dt8 project - hold me till the end but wasn't played!
sick night!!
Short and sweet:
INCREDIBLE night for quite a few reasons! Great to see lots of familiar faces and plenty of new ones!
I hoped they'd play techy, and hooboy did they deliver. 'Mystique' was definetly one of my highlights of the set. Mahoosive.
Special thanks to the one and only John Tang for helping me out last minute - It's always greatly appreciated, mate.

OMG!! What a night - totally needed a great night out.
Really disappointing how crowded and hot it was in there. Don't remember it being that bad last year. I did not stop dancing the whole night And my voice is almost gone but totally worth it.
I absolutely LOST IT when Cafe Del Mar came on! Holy f**K that made my night.
Really liked the crowd interaction. In just over a year, I've seen them 3 times now and they never disappoint.
A&B come back soon!!
PS and coat check was rediculous - I hate wintertime and at the moment, the only thing about Toronto I'd miss is the fact the best, world class Djs always stop here and you can see them for no more than $20 (except Tiesto :P)

First off, Pavo is a hell of a guy coming on and making a post. Always appreciated by the fans.
Hope everything is well with the young one mate!
As for the review: They came out firing for the first 1.5 hours. Lotsa bombs, slightly harder edge than expected. Played both of my requests right away(eg aria epica and world on fire). Pure class.
As much as I love these guys, and although they are always above average, the last half was a little surprising. Less anjuna-like really. The pace stayed a little harder but the set didn't really take a journey like they always do. Kinda droned out, and the heat/insane amount of people in there didn't help matters.
Don't get me wrong, was still good....But they have done better. When a group sets the bar so high normally, it is very hard to always reach that level you have come to expect.
Still a very good night.
sidenote: Give some credit to Mark Oliver for playing a pretty respectable closing set.

I was trying to encourage Paavo to play more of the classics cuz I know that's what the crowd wanted! But he did end up playing Ayu - M, although I was telling him to drop Razorfish!
Highlight of the night, well... 8 Wonders - Sex On The Beach ofcourse!
