-- Goldclub @ GUV last night!!!
Pages (2): « 1 [2]
wow, this event is really getting mixed reviews... 
I personally think that Guv is trying to shade away from the trance and more towards the progressive/mellow stuff. Why? it obviously attracts the older crowd. A huge reason why Guv is doing this is because of Oliver, who refuses to play any new trance at all.. I feel that they are purposely trying to get away from the "raver" scene and tryng to start an underground clubber scene, hence the renovation..
However my predictions: Guv and Oliver are forgetting about their roots, Guv is great now because of the raver scene; they are the ones that made the Guv as big as it is today. Most of the crowd that populates the Guv will grow out of clubbing within 2 or 3 years. Guv will eventually see a decline in attendance, since other competing clubs will go the trance way, and will bring back trance muzik as the norm...
THESE ARE JUST MY PREDICTIONS!!!
However, Guv looks awesome, so does Kool Haus. It is definitely the best setup in the city. They just have to figure out their recent sound problems and the rest will be fine...
It definitely was not worth the $35 I think. Timo Maas was the only DJ I enjoyed listening to the whole night. The Guvernment although looks nice had no nice music all nite long!! I agree with most opinions here....
except that I didn't like the guy stilts either, I found his appearance disturbing....maybe its just me!

just one concern here...you all knew that this event was all about house and progressive, so why bother going and paying 35 bucks if you KNOW that you wont have fun? 
if you dont like progressive or house, dont bother going simple logic.
Interesting how divided the reviews are.
Reasons why this was one of my best nights out ever, and definitely the best at Guv\Kool Haus: Had not had a good dancing night in quite a while, Timo Maas had a great set, Green Velvet was quite entertaining (although I agree the voice is very annoying, I was able to stand it for the 50 minutes they were on), one of the best crowds ever at a party, much improved sound and lighting at Kool Haus, more room and better sound (less loud and less distorted) at Guv except for the beginning of the night, big enough crowd yet enough room to dance, enough light in both rooms so you could see people's faces (I hate it when they make events\clubs really dark, takes away from the social atmosphere) more coat check people and door people to minimize line-up time (finally!!!), the party going late till 7:30, and my group of awesome awesome friends.
Reasons why this should have not been a good night: Well, music was just pathetic overall. In fact, Guv was shit all night (I got there at 11:00) except for the last set which was quite trancy for a change (don't know who was spinning then). Very disappointed by Sharam (from Deep Dish) and Josh Wink. But, the other factors made up for the music, though had it not been for Timo Maas to start me up (I could totally not get into it before that) I probably would have had a shit night.
Only other thing that lacked was more TA's!! I ran into dietcocaine, malice, liquidchick, and heatscore, and that was it. Too bad we didn't arrange a TA meetup.

I absolutely hated Saturday night. The only good thing was the renovations. The GUV looked so amazing, everything did. Too bad the music sucked big time!!! I've never had such a bad time at an event. Malice and I left at like 3 a.m. I hate house music and that's all I heard, oh and that annoying voice of Green Velvet. I'm so not a fan of progressive. Oh, how I longed to hear trance. I wish I was a big time celebrity who attended the event so I could give it bad publicity. What's even worse about the night is that I had to suffer through it sober. Oh, and I'm sure those who went saw the loser go-go boys with their little gold bikini bottoms dancing like strippers. Hey, now all those EC dancing ginos can have a goal to work towards. HA! HA! All I have to say about that is has anyone ever watched Queer As Folk??? All in all, that night is not even worth rating. Waste of time, waste of money. If I was a house or progressive fan, my review would be much different but I'm not so there!!!
Once again, it was great seeing the TA's that did show up. Arcticboy, it's always a pleasure. Heatscore, same goes for you. And Dietcocaine, glad to finally put a face to a name.

but for me, well sharam's set was really good, maybe coz of the fact that during his set, i went into the new acid lounge and just chilled there 
i didn't find his set boring at all, it did kind of lack from energy, but we know that House doesn't consist of energy (at least the house that was played sunday night). Saeed & Palash, prolly gave the best set from the main room, too bad i had to leave earlier, after they played that 1 tune! SORRY, i wanted to stay so bad

Do Not Attempt To Leave The Dance Floor! During the party an unkown frequency has made its way into our system and is now taking over! and the DJ will run a test through the system! I repeat This Is Only A Test!" there was a bit more to it, and the lyric didnt go exactly like that, but thats the jist of it. That song was fuckin sick!! |
