^^^Thats what I thought of the night. Better review later and lotsa pics and videos.

As always Lawrence was amazing and it is so unfortunate that he spun 12-2. Markus....well.....to me he started off good and then he turned into the suck. Second Sun.....I mean Second Suck....just couldn't deal with them. Yohan came on and picked it up again and got the crowd moving.

I think the biggest problem with G2 was the DJ order...not a proper flow to the night.

Other then that....it was great seeing all the TAs as always...especially the faces I haven't seen in awhile.

And Cam......stop getting kicked out.....you pot head.

Well you could have done a better job then half the DJs in the KH.

I took some heat for saying what I thought of the line-up, glad to see the final product was as bad as I thought it was going to be. Although it sucks for those that went. I'm sure the high light was/would have been hanging out with TOTAs.

Hopefully a good line up/all access is in the future, see you there.

There was no flow or build up to the night. All they really had to do was have lawrence spin last or warm up for JOhan and it would have been fine.

Had 2 parties to hit and guv was still a maybe. My second party ended at 1am, whats with that? Laura couldnt make it out to drive and the $135 cab ride wasn't doin it for me.

So what'd i miss?

Got to Koolhaus at 10:00 ish
Doors opened after 10:30

Nice intimate layout inside.
Crowd was really manageable all night.

Mark Oliver opened nicely.

Markus Schulz
Great set. He dropped a great beat for his set.
Air for Life was good to hear again plus many others

Second Sun
some nice tracks were spun. Live vocals were okay. I enjoyed their set

Johan Gielan
played a solid set
I liked his drum machine during Tiestro Letal Industry
Dogzilla - Without You - so happy to hear this one on a big sound system...

The night started out slowley, but overall I had a great time.
It was worth delaying the trip to the cottage to see Markus Schulz.

Stellar night out. Great tunes, and great fun with all the TA's. Pleasure meeting some new faces...Swamper, itikia, 2famous4u, and anyone else I may have forgot.

So here are the pics from last night and a preview video of many more vids to come. Enjoy!

Are you spoiled or just an elitist?

People- while the order of acts/ flow could have been better, be glad that you got to see all these acts on one bill. Jeeze... I couldn't have been happier to have my top 3 trance DJ's in the same room.

Arrived at 1 since I was waiting on Dark Entity. Got to a spacious KH w/a wicked light set up! Yay for long holiday weekends when everyone's left town! Orange Room was near empty most of the night (busier when Sidney Blu was on), but I guess not many house heads showed up for that price of a ticket.

Christopher Lawrence- awesome, as always, but only caught 2nd 1/2 of set.

Markus Schulz- awesome, as always. Could've used more Markus for sure. "Put Your Loving Arms Around Me"... need I say more? Group hug was in effect.

Second Sun- while I loved their last appearance at the Docks, this set lacked a flow big time. Opening tracks were "This is not Miami/ This is Toronto" and "Another One Bites the Dust", 2 songs I never would've expected to hear come from them. A few gems in there later on, but definitely not their best showing.

Johan Gielen- very nice intro. Made my life complete when he played Coast to Coast- "Home". The 2nd Johan CD I ever owned ('Recorded') was what really made me love him like I do- it never left my CD played for 3 mos, simply for that song & "The Beauty of Silence". My 1st time seeing him at Qontact in Amsterdam 2001, I prayed he would play those 2 songs. He played "TBOS", but not "Home". Last night, the 2nd part of that wish from long ago was fulfilled! As I said to Barry, if he played 1 more of my favorites, my night would be complete. I spent a lot of time then wandering around, socializing w/friends, and came back to the back of the booth near the end of the night, as it was getting close to closing time. I was sitting there thinking to myself: 'I wish he would play Saltwater to close, but theres a fat chance of that happening'. After Johan's mix of U2's "Staring at the Sun", the next song starts up, & he turns around and looked at me and motions to me a 'listen what's coming up' sign. Sure enough......
SALTWATER!!!!!!
Johan knows that's my song!!! So, a big thank you to Johan for playing both "Home" & "Saltwater"!!! Joined all the remaining TA's on the floor to go nuts to the song. He ended up squeezing 1 more track in afterwards, and that was that.

Nice to have met ChrisB and Kayla, and to have seen the NYTA's once again (hey Alyssa & Drew!). Nice to meet you Gabriel! Thank you Sean Cassidy for the hookups. Peace out to all the folks who made my night just for being there.

P.S.- RobbyG- post your pics and video- holy crap, is the quality gonna be amazing!!!
P.P.S- If I never hear "Born Slippy" for the next 10 yrs, I'd be happy. o-ver-played!
