Great times all around. For its second (i think) week in opporation the Colluseum pulled in a fair size crowd.
Ampz, Andrew and Greg completly blew me away!!
Always good to meet some new TA's, you guys were awsome!
Spread the word folks the parties are in London

Colosseum's been around for a little while now, but this was a relatively successful night from what I'm hearing.. Which is good news for sure.

Great to see our London TAs out, as well as our other TA Brethren.

Awesome night for sure.

Great night.

Started off the night with a lovely dinner with Ampz and Irishaddict. Great food, great drinks, great company.

Then we headed back to my place to review some new tracks and have a mini spin session

Arrived at the club by around 10ish to set things and chat with the amazing and awesome promoters Sugar Ray came on with his flavor or house and a touch of breaks. Good times for sure.

Barry hit things off by about 11:30 dropping some monster house tunes. "Swing to Harmony", "Say Hello", "Groove is in the Heart" Just awesome. People were filtering in, the dance floor was filling up, things were off to a great start.

Then Greg arrived and everyone got pretty pumped. His traditional style of the crazy spiked out hair was in full effect There was a slight problem though. The DJ's seemed to think that there were going to be needles supplied. Unfortunately for them, they weren't. So, off I went on an emergency journey back home (since I was one of the few London DJ's) to bring in some needles. Made it back in time... to realize Greg didn't even need them

Barry finished up and in went Greg, dropping track after track of proggy-house. It was pretty sweet, but being a total TranceAddict, it was lacking in energy for myself (and unfortunately a lot of the dancers).

Things picked back up near the end of Greg's set as he started into a couple trance tracks (namely "Eighties"). Then NuERA hit the decks and bam, the place went wild. The people were there for trance, and trance is what he brought.

Unfortunately the people I were with that night decided to hit another party so I had to leave and didn't get to hear his full set, but from what it started out as, rocking set for sure.

Special thanks to the Paradigm crew for bringing this night (and hopefully many others) to London. Barry, Aaron, and all the others involved with the organizing: it was a great night, things were great.

To all the DJ's, great evening, great energy, and a great turnout. To all the TA's who came out to support this, you are what make these parties so special (Irishaddict, Jer, shortyamanda, and a slew of others), great seeing you all.

NOTICE - For anyone partying with Laura (Irishaddict): BEWARE. The girl is out of control. She CANNOT stop buying drinks for other people when they have to DRIVE HOME or DJ. Stop this girl before she gets too out of control she doesn't know what to do

Thanks again everyone

BAHAHAHAHHAHAAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAHAHAHAH

I am so hungover.

It was decent night. Mind you, only because I'm not very into prog and house. And I was pretty tired.

And antibiotics on empty stomach plus alcohol make me flatulent. Sorry Andrew and Aaron.

Good to see there are some TAs in London. Next time though, introduce yourselves to me. I wear a TA t shirt for a reason.

Cya all next time I hope.

PS: Tune of the night: Push - The Legacy. Yep. you people who left early missed it.

First of all for all those that turned up. wicked night. Found myself unable to stop smiling a few times in the night.

Those ta's that showed up it was great to meet and or party with you once again. Alot of very very good people at a very nice venue.

The club itself has gotten off to a new start for the fall semister and those that did promotion for the night i truely thank you. Without you (aka Michelle, Jody, Dima) it wouldn';t have happened without you.

As for the DJ's, Benz was very good. Little confussed with the cd players but damn every mix was spot on. NuEra was a pleasure to have you play, yes trance to finish the night was a good idea Appreciate the ride home aswell Long nights for good party people.

Thanks to Chris Allen for bringing the Needles.

We look forward to being back soon look for an announcement very soon about this

Ampz

I had a great time while I was there, talked to Greg for a bit about how he used to spin at our little London parties. Good crowd too!
