Didn't boa have a fresh fruit platter in the morning?
Boa had the absolute WORST location in terms of emerging from the club. Chinatown sketches me out on a good day as it is.

(The 9 hr one was the longest I believe....and it was all bangin back then.) Caught parts of DT but I don't think I've ever stuck it out for more than a few hrs of one set. Basically I don't think I've done a marathon set that wasn't during normal waking hours (ie piknic) in over 5 years. This sums up the insanity of the Sven night - one of my top 5 parties of all time. Holy fuck was it ever good. Graham...you would have loved it. I think this was around 11am, and I just noticed that sounds like me screaming like 4 times in the video. |

My first time going to Stereo, I went to bed at 11pm, woke up at 4 or 5am and got there around 6:00am, first time doing anything like that and the vibe was killer inside - I miss those days 
Did a NYE marathon party there also that ran for 48 hours. I left to sleep / shower and come back 2 or 3 times over the course of that, but you could tell that some people had stayed start to finish without any break :P

If diginut had half a brain he would realize that "DJS" tour not so much because of connections, but releases put out. You can be the greatest dj in the world but 99 times out of 100 you will not get booked elsewhere unless you have material out aka contributing something more lasting than a live set to the dance music community.
Then again, has beens like to reminisce.

My sets:
Danny Howells (8 hours, System Soundbar 2005 & NYE 2005)
Danny Tenaglia (12 hours+, The Docks 2005)
(12+ hours, Pawn Shop Miami, 2006)
Richie Hawtin (8 hours+, Detroit)
Steve Lawler (7 hours(?), System Soundbar 2005)
(Sunrise sets 2005 & 2006)
(Halloween 2005 @ Guv)
That's it - DJ's I've seen spin 4-5 hours (which is what most in the US would consider a "marathon" set I bet):
Danny Tenaglia (5 hours, Beta 2008)
Steve Lawler (5 hours, Space 2006)
(5-7 hours, Ruby & afterhours San Fran, 2007)
(5 hours, This is London Jan 07)
Richie Hawtin (6 hours, Masonic Temple, 2006)
I want to see Sven Vath something horrible - especially one of the long sets. Graham - get him to come to Toronto and I'm there.

| Originally posted by The Highroller Boa/270 Spadina had a couple of those. The first one I went to (in 2004) was one of the most epic party experiences ever. 36 hours (although I think it went closer to 40) of party with Demi David Morales Saeed Younan Cevin Fischer Tom Stephan Chus & Ceballos +amazing locals in the lounge I think I did like 3 shifts there. Does anyone else remember that party? |

Damn that pesky need for basic things such as food and drink! and sleep.... I ended up napping for a bit at Stereo on round #3 :P didn't feel like going home yet again.
I respect marathons, in fact I usually don't like seeing djs for anything less than 3hrs.
Well the Dannys win this hands down for me.
Tenaglia
- 17 hrs, Stereo 2003
- 14 1/2 hrs, Space Miami 2002
- 13 hrs, Industry closing party (the bar re-opened at 11am!)
Howells
- 12 hrs, Aria 2003
- 10 hrs, Stereo 2007

I love when the bar re-opens during a marathon set.

Yep, I do. When are we doing that again? 
3 hrs is my bare minimum these days unless it's something like a live PA or a dj who does great shorter sets like Porter.
