I totally forgot to mention the orange room to, no need for that crowd to be put between those 2 rooms, they should have that crowd fenced off in there own little room. It would have made more sense to put that music in charlies. Walking though the orange room was like an instant trip to philty mcnastys, big bucks, or billy bobs 
Woah...
Ok, I was so pumped for this party ever since I heard M.I.K.E was coming down, and I knew I was gonna enjoy myself no matter what.
It took us forever and a day to get there due to traffic on the DVP, but I finally got in just after 1am (you da man John!). Now Marco V was good, but nothing spectacular imo... he played a few tracks I thoroughly enjoyed, but the rest I wasn't feeling...
So killing time back n forth from patio to the KH was a must, and socializing with the very small group of friends that actually came with me to such an important event (damn you wemf!)... but I have to agree, the hip hop between the rooms totally killed the buzz... I'd RUSH my ass off to get to and fro.. 
AP... well, whats tehre to say that nobody else hasn't mentioned... I think their behaviour was outta line, but overall they were very entertaining... I wasn't feeling most of their set, but a few tracks really impressed me, to say the least. I guess I didnt really care for any of the other headliners and just wanted to M.I.K.E to come on.
Then finally (and late mind you) he came on, and my perma smile which set in earlier in the night was justified... M.I.K.E was amazing... a 5 year wait well worth it! A few of his own productions that I remember he played were:
Push - Legacy 
Push - Universal Nation
Push - Strange World 
Plastic Boy - Live Another Life (OMG!)
Active Sight - Take The Day As it Comes (Made my night for sure!)
M.I.K.E - Turn Off The Lights 
M.I.K.E - Sunrise At Palamos (mmmmm)
I was also pleasantly suprised to hear another fav, F Massif - Somebody (Ferry mix)
Anyhow, another BIG highlight of the night was all the great TA's I saw and the new Ta's and just new people I met overall! The vibe was incredible when Push came on and I connected with so many people... There's too big a list of names to mention (never mind rememember ) but I did make some new awesome friends! And I guess there IS a purpose to having my ugly mug as an avatar (nice to meet you Tordan) 
There was a very slim changce I wasn't gonna have an AMAZING time that night, and it truly was a memorable experience for me. I just wish M.I.K.E wasn't on too late, and I wish the other headliners were better in order to improve the overal caliber of the party itself..
Now, J00F Anyone? 
omg, you guys are the biggest freakin whiners...orange room has always been hip hop, and i actually like it that way...you know why? i actually hate hip hop, but lots of my friends do, and aren't as fond of EDM...so this is the best way for us to compromise...thats why i like guvernment so much...we can get some awesome house on the skybar, the drink and the acid lounge, some amazing trance techno and prog in the guverment and kool haus and a mix of top 40 and hip hop in charlies and the orange room which are the two of the smallest rooms at the guvernment! so whats the big deal...your buzz was ruined by walking through there? maybe you should pick a room and stick to it a little bit longer if thats such a problem...i love guvernment for its diversity, and stop being so damn selfish only wanting the type of music you want to listen to, theres a place for everyone in that building

| Originally posted by redrum i completely agree, having to walk through the orange room was miserable, and completely would kill the buzz. difficult to walk through, lots of sweaty people not moving for you, and hip hop. reminds me a lot of the more popular clubs in buffalo, which i avoid. ick.  |

Here are some more pics taken by my friend Amy...she already joined TA as glittergirl but is still waiting to get approved.
Just to add a bit more fuel to the whole Hip Hop argument...
The guy in the White Hummer who was shot on Sunday morning, had just left the Orange Room, when he (presumably) was killed by someone with whom he had an altercation at the event.
Doesn't make me feel all that safe about walking through the Orange Room on my way between Koolhaus and Guv... I mean, trance addiscts are too relaxed and happy to get into any kind of altercation (can't even think of the last time I saw a fight (other than a couple asian chicks bitch slapping each other over some guy at Tiesto) at a real trance event.
But Hip Hop fans seem to shoot/knife each other with alarming frequency.

The hip hop room has always been there. There is a following in that room. How would you like it if the hip hoppers took over a night at your favourite club without warning just for a special event?
Oh and to the person from Washington who didnt like Toronto the city. What exactly didnt you like about it?

| Originally posted by High on PSI OK, come to a party next, lemme spray champagne or water all over you, and then we'll see just how happy you are. They should be respecting their fans. Thats my opinion, if im a computer geeks because of it, then im a fuckin geek. But if someone pour/sprays shit on me, dont care if its AP or Tiesto, ill get pissed and make a big scene. I'm just glad that plastered AP guy didnt try any of that shit with me, or else im pretty sure i woulda done sumthin that woulda got me kicked out |

| Originally posted by trancechaos fuckin hell, is this for real. its crazy to hear that someone was killed sunday morning. can anyone please tell me why hip hop culture is soo violent? why do those fuckin wankers wanna act like thugs and dont they think of the penalties of shooting or stabbing someone? dont those idiots think of the future, they might make fun of us by saying that we are E heads that dance funny and go all night. but the fact of the matter is that we have fun and the rooms are filled with energy, we dont start stupid fights coz someone grabbed somebody elses girl and tried to grind with them. i guess none of my questions will be answered but i just say the purpose of going to a club in my opnion is to listen to music and have a good time. |
Every visit to the Guv seems to be getting better and better for me.
My first event was Paul Van Dyk (which was fairly good, but I had to leave about 30 mins after he came on), then US4 (this was a great event, I'd say better than when PVD was here) and now I got to experience Ultra Spin 5 ... WOW!
Although the night started out kinda crappy for me (didn't get much sleep the previous night, had lots of travelling to do and then major traffic on the DVP, didn't get in 'till well after 1am).
However, everything soon came together...recognized a friend that I've met before outside the club scene...before I knew it I was partying it up with a number of TAs...met some other people on the dance floor...I've never danced so much in my life.
From what I've read, many people dislike the orange room...and I see why...it was a real pain have to go through it...ruined the buzz, the crowd wasn't too bad, but definately not as friendly as in the Guv or KH...
Marco V and M.I.K.E. were great! The last 20 mins in the KH will probably stay with me for quite awhile as that was the highlight of my night/morning...heh
Can't wait for LoL!

Well, i had a great time, and everyone i went with also enjoyed the whole night! I loved Marco V. he was amazing my first time hearing him live...and well astral projection i thought was very intertaining...seemed like they knew how to party, i talked to one of the guys for a bit on the dance floor seemed really cool! and i didn't really know much about MIKE, but was i ever impressed, i was so tired after driving to TO. and partying all night but i still danced my ass off! i loved it.!!! great night! The bar wasn't too packed either that was a bonus...went over to guv after kool haus closed and well it was alright but i was sooooo tired by then 
whats up guys, here are some pics, i wil post more when i get them from my friend

wow i just read this whole entire review and i cant believe all the complaining i heard! what ever happened to just going out to a party with friends to listen to some good music and have a good time?
iv'e read so many rude comments on here about the israeli
people...so what if they were chanting israel...or holding up their flag, and people saying they were acting like maniacs?? they were having a good time! whats so terrible about that??
as for astral..so what there were a few fukk ups..owell..shit happens, but the music was still amazing, and if you dont like psytrance you didnt have to hang out in that room, and BIG deal if they like to drink, and as for the squirting champagne on people..well its a PARTY! how can you go to a club/party and get pissed about something getting on you? it happens ALL the time, people sometimes bump into me and spill drinks on me, but i dont let it put a damper on my whole nite! if they did "fake" their set thats a little messed up but i was too busy dancing and enjoying the music, not analyzing every move they made, as for fukking up the other dj's sets i do agree that is disrespectful.
and the people complaning about mikes set having too many classics??
cmon, some people just seem to have to complain about something. well my only complaint about his set was that it should have been earlier, cuz by the time he went on my legs were hurting so bad i couldnt even think about dancing, so sitting there and hearing all those amazing tracks and not being able to go crazee was torture..
and then hearing that i left b4 universal nation? well that sucked too! other than that mikes set was great!
its just that after reading all the complaints on here i wonder why some of you even go to parties..it seems like some people are so busy analyzing every little thing that a DJ/ARTIST does or what other people are doing, they cant let themselves have a good time.
JUST CHILL PEOPLE!! DANCE ENJOY THE MUSIC AND HAVE FUN!
