It wasn't that long ago when you liked that song a LOT! hEHE ... well, I feel really really really bad that I had to miss the meetup (I worked till 8PM) and by the time me, my friend and Hami got to Guv it was almost 10, and since none of us were on the guestlist, we didnt even think about going to drop by Scotland Yard. We waited in the line for about 20 minutes.

Noone took any pictures of me or my friend to have a reminder of the great night ... I didnt even meet a quarter of all roll-called TAs (around 30 TAs maybe I talked to - see prev posts) ... that was pretty much the ONLY bad thing overall that night. I was too dam tired for after-party (worked all sat) and my friend had to be at his work by 9AM. I wish I could have met more TAs, otherwise I will still be treated like a newbie and with suspicion, and I am NOT A NEWBIE!!! I want to become a regular member of this community, but thats not possible cause I barely met like 40 TAs ... and I know the names to like only 20 of them . Its just hard to put away the work, chores and preparation out of the way on time ...

Was it Mark Oliver who spun in the main room at around 6:00PM? Cause thats when I got into the coat check line, and I heard some fabulous tunes that are still ringing in my head right now, like Armin's Blue Fear '03 and Envio's Time To Say Goodbye ....


Oh, yeah, I have to add that Anne Savage is HOT, and I cant believe I missed her show completely ... I was getting progged and Infected. I forgot that she only spun until 3, so when I got to the main room at around 3:10, it was all over ...

Hey, I've been apart of TA for ages now 3 years and I still haven't met EVERY SINGLE TA at every event...you cannot possibly meet everybody! I just hang out with those that I know relatively well and then meet others bit by bit...


Posted by Magnetonium on Jan-19-2004 06:53:

Endlesswave, that statement does not apply JUST to that party ... it applies to ALL the TA parties I've been to.

Its my fault I am missing out on many things, but generally a lot of people know me, back here in Hamilton ...

Re: Review: Ultra Spin 4

thanks everyone for putting your hands in the air, etc. it was an awesome time and one of our favorite gigs so far!

josh and i take turns we don't actually both play at the same time. i went first and josh went 2nd.

josh's last song was tom mcrae "you only disappear" he usually plays the song over other tracks since its an acoustic rock track with no drums.

we hope to be back in t.o. again soon!

cheers

All I have to say is that I love Gabriel and Dresden. They dropped one of the best trance sets that I've heard in a long time. I got there around 12:45 with Drgoodvibe, tha_broad, my buddy brendan, and my roomate Mike. Both Mike and Brendan are not really into trance but they absolutely loved G + D's set. Then on came infected mushroom. I have to say that although there stuff was fun, I dont like these guys at all and I kept wishing they would come off sooner. Due to the numerous falls snowboarding on Saturday, my knees were all swollen and as a result I had trouble standing near the end of their set. I wanted to wait for Rank1 but I just couldn't do it. So I left with Mike and Brendan and as I write, this I missing Rank 1. However, while waiting to get out coats we were able to hear them open with what other than Airwave. Oh well, maybe next time. I had a great time, just really tired. Good to see everybody, I'm not even going to try and name anybody as they were everywhere. At one point in the night, Em asked if I wanted to meet any new TA's and I said that I just couldn't do it. It was a bit overwhelming. So I hope everybody had a great time and I'll see you again soon.

Ryan

Thanks for an awesome night!!! Come back as soon and as often as you'd like

This night set the bar pretty high for the rest of the year's events !


Posted by davedresden on Jan-19-2004 07:05:

as for why we still play "as the rush comes" - do you see the reaction it gets? and since it's our song, we like to see that reaction.

that said, we prob wouldn't still play it if we didn't make it.

tell everyone to sit down when we play it and perhaps that might make it go away :P

as the rush came,
dave

I'm pretty sure that I speak for all the TAs when I say, don't make it too long!

You guys were awesome!!


Posted by Endlesswave on Jan-19-2004 07:18:

Welcome to TO Dave/Josh! Glad you guys had fun, we sure as hell did! Too bad I missed the pre meet, would've been cool to talk it up. Your Toronto Debut delivered, come back soon.

seriously though anyone get the tracklisting for g and d???


Posted by SKELETOR on Jan-19-2004 13:54:

night started off amaazing with deko-ze... played an amazing set! i was pumped and full of energy, but then GD came on.. im not the bigest trance head so i was a little calmer at the beginning of their set but then they started layin down some harder tunes and i was gooooooonnnee!!!

THEN CAME THE MOMENT.

INFECTED MUSHROOM.


they bleew me away!!!!

that was one of the best live pa's ive ever herd... simply amazing. i was going crazy for their entire set.. wow what a night to remember.

the party was awesome.. lot of nice ppl, great vibe.


Posted by trancehed99 on Jan-19-2004 14:25:

Holy Moly!!!!!
I had a freckin amazing time

Rank 1 was the best for sure. The entire atmosphere was perfect for that set and that type of trance. I really enjoyed IM too.

I was amazed at the performance by the lighting technician. He played 3 different styles of lighting techniques, during the different styles of music, and he did a perfect job for each. My favourite of course is the long sideways flood lighting, once the buildup comes in, typical to melodic trance. Standing at the chill area at the back of the room gazing at the ca-motion going on was pure heaven for me. During IM the lighting was a bit darker and kept the mood perfect for the music.


Posted by SKELETOR on Jan-19-2004 14:36:

lol.. i didnt even notice the lighting.

i just liked it when it was really dark and the glow sticks were lookin awesome!


i dont really like lazers that much.. theyre more of a distraction from the music for me than an enhancement.





i still cant get infected mushroom out of my head.

AND MY EARS ARE STILL BUZZING!


Posted by DigiNut on Jan-19-2004 15:03:

The real reason I went to this was for Infected Mushroom, and fuck, no disappointment there! Since I missed them the first time around, I had no idea what was coming. I'd say that IM ending with BUST A MOVE was the highlight of my night - no, wait - highlight of my past YEAR! Totally a 10/10 for their performance.

G&D and Rank 1 were both a'ight... not really what I was in the mood for that night, but had I been in one of my "epic" mind frames then I probably would have loved it.

Also gotta give major props to G&D for coming to the pre-meet.

#1 bitch: sound system was way too fucking loud. I'm sorry but what the hell were they thinking? I was wearing 30 dB earplugs and my ears were still ringing for a full day after leaving the club. It was pumped way too high, to the point of distortion. If anyone who works at the Guv complex ever reads this or hears through the grapevine, you don't need to turn the sound up that high to impress us. We know you've got a powerful sound system, but we'll be just as happy if it's half that loud. And yes, I know I sound like I'm making a big deal out of this, but having my ears in constant pain and not being able to talk AT ALL to ANYONE kind of killed my buzz.

Some other things bugged me but I'm not going to mention them because I think if it hadn't been for the volume, I probably wouldn't even have noticed or cared.

It was great to see all of you again, sorry if I didn't seem to have much to say but that ^^ was the reason why. Still, always awesome to party with ya.

I know, my ears we're ringing for damn near an hour after getting out, from now on, I think I will invest in earplugs...


Posted by samhouse on Jan-19-2004 15:17:

wow

this is gonna be a hard one to top....and its only january.
G&D was a lil off i thought in the first 20 mins or so....dunno why i thought this, i just wasnt feeling it...but they gradually improved and the last hour was brilliant.

Infekted Mushroom remain one of my favourite acts to see live cuz of their incredible energy and just the general vibe of the room. Easily my fav part of the night.

Rank 1 blew me away...awesome awesome trance...with my ever growing love for house, it was amazing to hear the tunes coming out of the KH sat night.

AND finally Mark.....mark mark mark..Communication and end of time to end it......didnt catch much of him, but from what i hear he was stellar all night.


Posted by samhouse on Jan-19-2004 15:19:

maybe i just dont notice these things...but my ears have never buzzed after any party ever.....

he's lying! But thanks for the compliment
did you notice loconet is equally hot himself?


Posted by SugarRush on Jan-19-2004 16:32:

Wowsers!

Well, what can I say that everyone hasnt already said
but DAMN that was a good night!
I guess for me, being the Guv-hater that I am, I was absolutley
amazed at what a different vibe there was then ANY other time Ive been there. Every one was SO cool. Usually I leave complaining about everything, but not this time!!
I wanted to see Rank 1 but was skeptical about going...thank god for
Avro who convinced me to go!
My faith has now been reinvested in both T.O Trance parties as well as the Guv.

I thought Rank 1 was AMAZINg!!!! totally my type of trance. During their set everyone was going crazy and the room had amazing energy.
...yes it was LOUD!! I have some earplug that I got from Germany and they are sooo good that i had NO ringning when i got home...thank god, cause I hate when that happens.

It was cool to run into a bunch of old party friends that I havnt seen in years.
So all in all i have to say that this night was a 10/10
It meets all my criteria of a perfect party
