| Originally posted by PatMcGroin a real review from a reliable source... sorry to say but the reviews here just dont cut it... karu was really nice, very high class and upscale but it wasnt the kinda place i would like to party for conference. there were just too many rich people running around who you could tell knew nothing about the music! we arrived around 11 and walked into the outside area which was nicely set up. the dj booth was on top of water with water running above a bar and down behind the bar. it was obvious whoever owns/runs this place has A LOT of money. we walked inside to another room and instantly the smell of seafood hit us. FUCKING NASTY! we walked around and quickly realized this was a club/restaurant. fucking terrible. all the way towards the back we found the main room where above&beyond, svd, and b&j would play. WAAAAAAAAAY too loud in there. i had earplugs and still i felt my ears bleeding! the opening dj (michael myers or some shit) wasnt playing bad but seriously had the bass turned up to the max. this place was smaller than space but had the same sound system. nice try, but it was too much being that is was that small. we spent the majority of the time just walking around to the outside area because you couldnt smoke cigs inside the main room! WTF?! a club where you cant smoke inside? BULLSHIT! further in the night, people were smoking in the mainroom but security didnt do anything. despite this michael myers played well even dropping a sander van doorn track (sun goes down). above & beyond were scheduled to come on at 12:30-2:30 but didnt come on until 1 or so. the first three tracks they played were banging but after the slow-dreamy-put-me-to-sleep trance came on and i was bored out of my mind. one track for sure was air for life. TOO OLD MAN! they finally ended at 3 and then SANDER VAN DOORN came on. the man of the night. the reason i paid $30 for this event! he only played for 1 hour and 30 mins but lemme tell you, best money ive ever spent! even more IDs than the fifth set (which was longer!). some tracks included were king of my castle, control freak, are you fine, who is watching, direct dizko, lethal industry! he blew it away! to be honest he messed up mixing in at least 3 tracks but i dont care! the way he brings the tracks in and the way he fucks with the mixer on the breakdown of a song waaaaaaaay more than makes up for it. his crowd interaction is incredible and he just seems SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO happy being up there! i took a bunch of random pics where his smile is HUGE! after his set he even took pics with EVERYONE that asked! even said a couple of words. COOLEST dj ever and this is why hes my #1 now! in the past couple of years, all the shows ive been going to, pvd, armin, holden, zabiela, fanciulli, kleinenberg, THIS IS WHAT IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR! nonstop, start to finish, amazing sets. two times in one week! sander van doorn has caught and reeled me in! onto blank & jones.... when sander's last track (direct dizko) was finishing, b&j tried mixing into it for 30 secs, realized they couldnt and let sanders track play to the end then started. they killed the vibe so bad it was funny. we took pics with svd then left. didnt even hear two songs of b&j. svd.... the perfect way to end conference!!!! funny that tiesto was there, we heard he was gonna be there but left after svd knowing it couldnt get ANY better! pics + vids all coming tomorrow!  |

| Originally posted by Gjorgji Anyways, before the I wasnt sure who the King is. So, several days ago I randomly bet my friend that The King is Tiesto because of the umlaut in King. And guess what, I WON  Around 7am i was chilling in the main stage, and a dude with several bodygards passed through. It was him. He did a small set (which I didnt get to see till the end since I was dieing after 24h without sleeping).So, I AM SOOO GLAD THAT I WENT THERE. I would say the worthiest party I went to during the WMC (after Ultra, of course). |

| Originally posted by requiemofnanqel After looking at your reply for the Tiesto @ The Setai and this reply right here I can assume that you tend to be one of those Tiesto fanatics who will say and do anything to defend their favorite DJ, even when an event sucks!!!! The person replying to you previously made no offensive comment, rather stated it was his "best party of conference", and yet you come off with such a smart ass answer for no reason being. Hmmm do I sense someone here is being bias?!?! |
