Yes, there was a ramp at the bottom of one of those streets.

Bein non, du monde s'es deux c�t�s, mon chumb. On jazera la d'sus s'une brosse s'tu veux.

I see 110 is the norm in the area. tx

Looks like Taschereau is my only home on the S.Shore.

So, we'll be at the event tonight. If you see me, say HI! I'll br wearing the same shirt and hat.

Originally posted by Abercrombie Buddy has his sights on Crescent, and my understanding is that that stip has changed since I spun there back in the days, so this is why I'm looking at this event, so I need to convince him.

I made the horrible mistake of going out to party on Crescent street last Saturday. If it's general clubbing with crap top-40 music and picking up girls, I'd strongly recommend going to places on St. Laurent instead, since they piss all over the shit-holes on Crescent street (esp in the latter category). If you're looking for Irish Pubs it's not that bad though.

So what's the deal with this event, do I need to get a ticket from someone or do I just show up and get in free? I'm gonna try to juggle this and Audiofly I think.

gonna miss both parties!

good luck tonight maher! kill it!

Oy, missing Porter again..

Damned unexpected hazing!

How'd it go Maher?

When i came in, i was told that porter didnt show up..

wtf

Lots of money was on the decor and everything

A smaller room would have made the party much better

Sound system was good

Lighting wasnt bad at all

Max Graham was on the decks when we came in

Only heard two tracks

I found you - Dubfire remix


Crowd was very different than i thought

Some very young kids and some older people too


Next time if i was bacardi, i'd put more money to bring djs that never played or rarely play Montreal

with one or two solid openers

And the party is going to be kickin

I hope everything went well for maher

Cheers

porter played before max.

Weird

I came in with Dj Driss

When he came back from the bathroom, he told us Porter was a no show



I was coming to hear him

maher started around 945pm and played a warm opener, the proper way to start a night...no complaints on my end for his set...warm, deep, sensual: what a warm-up set should be imo. once again, good job

porter came on around 1115pm i think...lots of fun tracks, overload of energy, it was like he was playing his style from 2 years ago. remember porterhouse in MTL at stereo sept 16th 2005? ya, like that... funky, fun, fast, a little chicago house inspired music meshed up in there...he has so much energy behind the decks. he was rocking out and he enjoyed it alot

dance floor filled up around 1215am and porter was playing to a crowd of people who had NO clue what they were hearing. VERYYYY young crowd (i think mainly 1st year mcgill students). reminded me a bit of a university frat party minus the bad music the crowd was not in any way whatsoever a SAT crowd. but they were all fucking drunk and high and annoying and god knows what. and they were LOVING it. so, good job i guess...whatever floats your boat y'know?

max came on around 1am and i was too tired to pay any attention to his set, so i sat down on those wikkid cool leather couches they had lining the room and sipped mojitos and watched the fools dancing ridiculously around me for my entertainment hehe left at 220am, place was slowly emptying out.

it was fun til next time, peace...

Quality night, showed up at around 12 or so I think, stayed for an hour or so of Porter's set then went to check out Audiofly at Tribe, got back around 2ish in complete gong-show mode. Highlights of the night were slipping and bailing outside of SAT, and then somehow managing to lock myself in a stall in teh bathroom, attempt to climb out despite 15+ people trying to dissuade me (thanks Maher! ), only to have some random guy open the door from outside in one try... GONG-SHOW.

Haha, had a good time though, was too drunk to remember much of Max Graham's set but he was playing some good shit. Crowd was like Erika described, children for the most part, but that's aight because I like acting like a child.

gold review

I just spent the last 20 minutes writing my review here, and I got a network freezup and my browser messed up on me, losing everyting.

So in summary...

Maher did a great warm up set... I head tracks I haven't heard before, some good vocal tracks which dominated the night. Wish I had a track list.


Great night for vocal tracks, a refreshing night similar to my nights with Sandra Collins.

Younger crown, and many people were not as social as the usual Montreal crown known for its hospitality.

My buddy isn't used to the unisex washrooms, I'm used to it.... but the the girl in blue jeans and black boots who sat in the cubicle next to me with her friend... a courtesy flush would be appreciated, as the fart you made probably turned you from a 10 to a 1 in as long a time as it took for you to deliver it.

Nice to hear Porter play our fello TA Deadmau5' harder better faster stronger. Deadmau5 will be performing at the Guvernment next week, so it's great to see this kid shoot up to world attention in so little time.

Graham's track of the night for me was Oxio - Domino... always a great track for me, especially when you are dancing right in between the speakers. It's not the same if you are not in the proper stereo spectrum.

So I was surprised at the small crowd too... Both Porter and Graham deserve much bigger crowds.

and great to meet Pascal! Nice to be greeted by a fellow TA in every city I visit for a party.

shit... just found it....




I just got back from Montreal. The above couple of reviews were right on the money.

However, I could NOT BELIEVE the small size crown to see some BIG names like Max and Steve. These guys pack clubs over here, and people have no issues paying 20 bucks to see them.

I got there at about 10:45 and was there till the 3am closing. Yeah the crowd was mostly young, and many were quite reserved, since the typical Montreal clubbers are very social. I normally have no issues sparking up a conversation with anyone there typically, even in Toronto which is commonly percieved as 'colder'. I did speak to part-time promoter who was there casually, and he said that Bacardi didn't market this even well. There were many from McGill, and some girls I had a smoke with outside came from Clubzone.

It was very refreshing hearing some vocal tracks, which I don't hear often over here. My night was very reminiscent of the Sandra Collins nights at the Guv. I love her.

Porter played our fellow TA Deadmau5's Harder Better Faster Stronger. As soon as I heard the first note, I LOST IT! And it was so great to see the crown go nuts shortly after jumping high to the beat in front of the booth. Deadmau5 will be performing at The Guvernment's Orange room next week, it's going to be a blast.

My buddy Jason doesn't go to Montreal much, so when he went into the washroom downstairs, he got confused. He's not used to the popular unisex washrooms in the city. It's all good normally IMO. However... to the girl who sat in the cubicle next to me in the blue jeans and black boots... A courtesy flush would be appreciated, since us guys are not accustomed to hearing a girl fart like that, it turns you from a 10 to a 1 in as long as time it took you to deliver it.

Great meeting you Pascal! Nice to have a fellow TA introduce himself. I always enjoy hooking up with local TAs in every city I visit. 'wish I met the rest of you!

great review man!!

as for the mcgill crowd, doesn't surprise me at all, most of these yougin's are from the states or from elsewhere in Canada and haven't yet caught up on the social side

word

did porter play daft punk also? i played it as my first track...

having a giant flourescent sign lighting up the dancefloor from behind the dj was a real vibe killer... and all my friends left as they don't drink rum, im all for promoting a product but you need to give people options no?... maybe 2 bucks for rum and 6 for vodka... im just a dj what do i know

nah man you were the only one that droped it i have to say that edit / remix of underworld Cowgirl ... Hot!!!!!! probably the track of the night for me personally kudos maxi

Seriously, that shit pissed me off too. It's not like Bacardi doesn't have any other products; for fuck's sake, they should have had grey goose as the alternative for $10, would have made me way happier.
