What a night! I'll post a full review when I have the patience but basically I'm going to say Ferry and the TAs made the night for me - was great meeting a whole lot of you and seeing those that I've already met again.
One question - hopefully someone has the answer - what track did Ferry open up with? It was amazing!
Again, full review to come later, but hopefully someone can answer this question for me!

SET OF THE NIGHT:
TOMMY SUNSHINE.... YA, BELIEVE THAT.
Um EFFIN RIGHT!!!
I heart the tent and I heart Tommie Sunshine. He is the skechiest looking dj's EVER!!! I love it, I could just watch him dj for hours and dance my ass off.
Other than that, I hate Guv all access. Never again. Ugh, too sweaty and disgusting.
I saw a bunch of TA's, but I didnt really say hi. I'm too shy You wouldnt really recognize me as a TA. I'm more recognized as DjSketchbags gf. Hehe. Which is alright with me <3 But I'm a TA too!!
Big <3 to the people I did see. Hope to see all you guys out and about soon.

I cannot remember exactly how we first met, but we ran into each other like 20 times that night. I believe-though I cannot remember for sure-that he said his name was Mike....He was wearing a green or grey hat with a lip last night: I definitely wanna get his ID confirmed b/c I soooo wanna party with him again. It seemed like once or twice every hour I'd look down and see this guy having the time of his life with a huge smile on his face, I musta shook his hand like 20 times haha. Such a friendly guy. He definitely knows how to enjoy a trance build-up: he was moving like the music was rocking throughout his entire body. Dood I hope you read this, I wanna kick it with you again, and I really hope I get a chance to see the pics you took (especially since I'm in some of them haha). |

Digweed ~ the absolute finest of the finest! it was an honour to be part of such excellence of talent and skill.
a little piece of heaven for my birthday.
hernan was good but the last half an hour he seriously slowed down so much i thought i would have to lie down and sleep. he completely strangled what he had built up. too bad. i'd never seen him before but he was definitely good ... but still not as good as my masters digweed & sasha. no one holds a candle to these two. NOONE!
luke ~ i hadn't seem him for two years. same with brad. both of them have improved their skills immensely so it was great to see our two local prog boys again. luke however - a new digweed in the build. great job!
benny - omg! this guy is so weak! i had to leave after 2.5 tracks. couldn't take it. what a shame on behalf of the guv to have someone like him close the nite, - which however on the other hand was not so bad in the end b/c i got to see Ferry who kicked my ass for the next 4 hrs. TUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNES!!! OMG! at that point in the nite i had not sat down for 8 hrs but i could not sit down. impossible! this guy is a machine behind the decks! took me right back to my early ARIA days of dancing my soul out ... i thought i'd never say this but i think i'm going to have reconvert to some trance - but only to some. 
in overall, to my surprise, the nite was a fantastic experience. this was also my first LoL. what i expected to be a horrible cesspool experience at the guv was actually fairly acceptable. not too too crowded, not too hot and the people were actually not the typical freaks that come out at nite. ... oh and for some reason my name was on neither g-lists?!? w t f? thank god for the g-list girl who ended up just giving me the reduced pass. bah! 
great meeting some new TA's as well! Shade - Nat's look-alike lil brother! hihi! :P was nice meeting you & partying with you! the clowns, nuera and some TA's in disguise (aka lurkers) that i just happened to talk to. funny!! Karlo ~ what happened to you??? and Fahad my towelboy!! hahaha! thanks for the thorough towelling off from time to time. you'll make a good dad one day! 
k, that's all i can manage for now. back to sleep. my legs are broken. need my beauty sleep. 33 tomorrow. 
my cousin (who i see fairly regularly) had his wedding in Guelph yesterday so I knew in advance I couldn't go. I wish I had gone but family (usually) comes first and I'd never live down blowing off a wedding for a rave. I was contemplating leaving at 10pm because a few of my friends were there...but I pro bably would not have got in and finding them would have been quite the task. Plus I didn't have a stash, which I find necessary for these type of events.
Ah well, sounds like everyone had fun. I would have been up for seeing Ferry until 10am for sure. He's never disappointed me all four times i've seen him in TO.
I havent been on TA all day and apparently "I" started this very thread. LOL
My Review:
Got in early. Regular line moved fater than guest list line. No surprise there. Was packed from early on. Like crazy packed. I've never seen the KH so bloody packed. So Armin came on and it got even MORE packed! 
Seriously, he wasnt doing it for me. So not liking the music and not being able to move, I took off to Guv for abit.
Guv was actually cooler and there was room to dance! I was shocked! But there was one thing missing...the music. Hernan Canyonaro or whatever his name is was bored the living hell out of me. It got so bad that after an hour I gave up and went back into the hot and packed Koolhaus. Armin finished up and Junkie came on. I really liked his set. Alot of energy from him as usual. Too bad there was still no room to dance. I wish he was on longer than an hour.
After Junkie, the man I came to see came on. The music was good from the start and by this time there was some room to dance. But by this point my night was shot. I was tired and frustrated from a crappy crowd in a crappy venue playing (mostly) crappy music. So at 5 we left.
Summed up:
Music: 6/10 (granted I didnt visit all the rooms and I heard that tent was pumping)
Venue: 0/10 (this is no surprise, why do I keep going back?)
Crowd: 7/10 (I only give this such a high score because there was plenty of TA's helping me to salvage my night. Otherwise it was the usual Guv garbage)
oh whoever was asking - that pills song is The Matrix - Take the red pill, take the blue pill and probably is Junkie's own remix

| Originally posted by Selenium what was the opening song of junkie xl's set that kept saying "take the blue pill , take the red pill" ? if somebody knows let me now it rocked my night |
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the first thing that needs to mentioned
Vera-fucking-cocha
Carte-FUCKING-Blanche
if its anything about this party is the surprises the dj pulled, dropping tracks like "the colour is black", and armin ending his Beutiful set (DONT HATE) with SEVEN MOTHER FUCKING CITIES!!!!!!!!!!!
cosmic gate - Should have known dropped twice... im loving the cosmic gate comeback, always good to have some old flavors back in the cone!!!
Armin was spectacular 9-10, yeah he was harder, its better than the boring shit he pulled last time he was in the K/H...
I fucking loved JukieXL, i thought it was AWSOME how everyone was signing to "today" and the rest!!!
FERRY "the master" CORSTEN killed, KILLED, 15/10
strange worlllllddd... oooooooooooooooooooh
this is the greatest GUV event ever,
bennasi aint my thing but he suprised me cuz i thought he was shitt, (Courtesy of his shit song satisfaction), digweed was aight, same with cateneo, house aint bad but it sure as hell aint TRANCE BABY, and trance was delivered at the K/H!!
met TAs here and there, been partying always but never really talk to any, TAs, always a nextime
oh and dunno if i metioned this, but
Carte-FUCKING-Blanche

i really enjoyed armin's set, but i think that i was either too sober or getting to old to be able to really enjoy myself in a place as packed and hot as KH was.

I got in around 10:30 pm. It was my first time @ Guv so I was just blown away by the entire complex. I just walked around the place to see how it was. I totally forgot about the TOTA meetup . But I still managed to run into some TA throught the entire night, which was good. I finally settled down at the koolhaus to hear MO.
AvB (10/10)----> Un freakin believable! Awesome and fairly solid set that just kept me dancing almost the whole time, the thirst, heat, and dense crowd couldn't stop me. His set slowely sucked me closer to the stage. By the end his incredible trance and epic parts got the best of me. I Felt like passing out. So I rested when Junkie XL came on. Armin was the highlight of the night. It teases the shit out of me when you hear a really good song(like the ones at the end) that you never heard before and you may never hear it again. Does anyone know the names of the songs that were played near the ending?
Junkie XL(8/10)----> I heard some of his set it was good. I went on the dancefloor and saw his leg on top of the decks ready to jump when the chrus of the song came on..lol. Crazy. I hope someone video taped that...lol. It was A good song that I heard in the hype material on the roll call thread. lyrics were talking about (taking pictures from the lense of a camera) Does anyone know wats the name of that song? Thanx
Benny Bennasi(9/10)----> Now, I never planned on hearing that guy. I wanted to relax and watch the sunrise in the skybar. But I got lost trying to find it and ended up in a room at the top that over looks the Guv mainroom. So I just stood there listening to his set. I thought he was gonna play crap similar to whose your daddy. Instead he layed down some really good stuff that totally took me by surprise and went beyond my excpectations. I especially liked when he played Oxia - Domino, it sounded better than Armin's version. That particular song sounds better housey beats. I listened to him until 8:30 am. Then Went to catch Ferry.
Ferry Corsten(9/10)----> Right after Junkie XL, I stayed and caught almost 2 hours of his set. It was good but I was really tired and wasn't feeling his music much. After coming back from the main room at 8:30am I was so tired that I couldn't remember how it was. I remember him playing On Fire twice though. Which kinda annoys me. I don't like it when DJ do that. But considering it was a 6 hour set, its okay to do that. Ferry had a really good ending which ROCKED tha place!! Wow.... He made me stay till the end!!!!!
crowd (9/10)----> I thought I would hate packed venues like koolhaus or Guv. But instead I liked it b/c they create a good vibe and energy. The crowd was pretty friendly too. Lots of beautiful ladies too. I elbowed so many ppl on the head and step on their feet( by accident of course) and they turn around I apoligize they smile and just keep on partying. Some gave me water when I needed it. Some treat me like I already know them but I don't. I think its b/c I was surrounded by E users 
. That was more obvious during Ferry's set at around 9:30am.
Overall (10/10)----> Simply the best clubbing experience in my life. I'll post more when I remember more.
PROPER REVIEW SOON.... BUT FOR NOW
ARMIN VAN BUUREN
+
ABEL RAMOS - ELECTRO FUN (ORIGINAL MIX)
------------------------
OHHH MY GODDDDDDD !!!!!!!!!!!!!
In the meanwhile, horrible pic of me (everytime i take a pic with a performer its brutal !!!) as usual but ....

Armin played a flawless set...everything was perfect from KH being so packed that it almost felt like the entire complex was in there at times it was beautiful with all the lights and the decorations GOOD JOB GUV!!! there were no groupies on stage...there were no distractions; ARMIN ONLY! he was there 100% from start to finish he delivered his best set for me this year! FUCKING AMAZING!!!! some of us were actually contemplating leaving after he was done cuz really it was that good ! hahahaha he played these track towards the end | quote: |
