Yeah like Gabriel and Dresden.... their song selection when they spun at Kool Haus was good but their mixing was sub-standard.... I'm not complainin I ENJOYED that nite... I heard Deep Breath Love by Motorcycle (WHEN IS THAT SONG EVER GONNA RELEASE????? ) so my nite was made.... so far I think the Ferry Corsten set in March has to be the best party ever for me.... his mixin's A-Class and so is his production.... out of the newcomers on the scene I think my best are Filo and Peri.... brilliant tunes those 2 produce man! Hope they come back to TO for another set

no late review here, but a couple questions.

does anybody record these sets? sometimes with all the hustle/bustle of avoiding crazy glowstick kids, and those profusive sweaters you seem to miss a good part of the set. yeah i know its wishfull thinking here, but uhm, there's no set available to download, right?

sometimes i get this feeling there's this secret TA society where every good set is stashed away and enjoyed by a select few . ok i'm kidding. its just that every good rock concert is always recorded off the soundboard, and at times made available to fan club members or the general public (eg. Pearl Jam). just wondering

I haven't even seen a complete cue sheet, or track listing for the set yet.

I was there, and I had a great time. I liked his track selection, and his mixing. The acoustics were setup perfectly, in my opinion anyway. My ears weren't ringing when I got out, like they have been before when I've been to Guvernment.

Overall, it was a good night.

i'm working on a tracklist tonight. on the way to syracuse, greg and i were writing down all the tracks we remembered, and now i have to look up tracks that i heard from the prague set. set was very similar (high energy and bpm)...

opening track:
marcos - red bullet

he also played sander van doorn - punked


don't know what the encore was. :/

will post a more complete tl for everyone tonight.

great party! not too crowded, sound was great, and paul played everything i wanted to hear. heard 3 mixes that didn't sound quite right, but at least he's human! everything else was spot-on. he sure didn't let us down.

Caryn- how did the NY shows compare? (aside from the rain) Did he spot u in the crowd & wave hi?

Didn't anyone else feel kind of ripped off by the 2.75 hours that PVD played?
Oliver seemed harder and funkier.
Maybe my tastes have changed.

He didn't have the '5 gigs in 5 nights' excuse that Tiesto usually has either.

Paul always plays short sets, unless he's doing a 6-hr one at the Roxy in NY.

I guess I should have saved it for this weekend then.

ha , i called that red bullet opening all the way from here.

central park was almost a no-go for me. we left syracuse at 1:30, and due to lincoln tunnel traffic, didn't get into nyc until after 7. had to pick up both of my sisters (delayed due to lincoln tunnel traffic as well) and check into the hotel.

it was pouring out, but my sister jessica and i went to central park about 9. greg and lara rested...

the hour was good, but jess and i got really cold because we were soaked from head to toe.


spirit was one of the best (if not the best) set i've ever heard him spin. paul came on a little before 2 and went until ~6. had a little more depth than the guvernment set, and a totally different feel. soo many new tracks and really amazing tunes. hearing 3 completely different sets in two days, but all great, really proved to me how great paul is.

towards the end of his set at spirit, greg and i went to the side of the booth to catch paul as he was leaving, and then a ton of kids swamped him and crushed us. i just wanted to say hi and thanks again, and let him know i'll send a copy of the picture from after guv, but i was just too tired to deal with the groupies...and he looked so very tired too.

up from thursday 7am until saturday at 11pm and in the car for 20 hours. i don't regret one minute of it. one of the most memorable weekends of my life...

Had an amazing time on thursday...set wise I would say oct 03 was more epic compared to this one..But still this one kicked some serious arse...recognized a few choons...was very nice to see PVD smiling as well as being focused at the same time...The OLe ole chanting was totally unnecessary and thank god it stopped after a while....All in all a great night..

T - 3 days to Armin Madness

Yes, his set was definitely missing the 'epicness' from it. There was no way a Nu-NRG track coulda been dropped in that set.

How is that tracklist coming!!??
