dude

epic night




low turnout but crowd energy made up for that

marco layed down one of the best sets I've ever seen from him.

Louis pumped out some fkn quality... awesome opening!!!

maus is really slamming... she went a lil too obscure minimal tech at times but made up for it with a banging finishing

creator really dazzled me man... some quality choons man and some nice mixing.

crowd became light at around 6... kinda a downer but it was nice to have tons of room to hop around.

props to... wow this is a big one... erika, haki sak the extrodinaire, tag the drunk, selma and her boyfriend who are super sweet, bertuzz, martin, that fkn russian, sketchy black guy trying to offer my friends GHP out of a bagyy... FOR REAL... Gabriel, who it was a pleasure to meet and wouldn't stop dissing my tennis backhand, roomie rocking it on the dancefloor, alexxxx who actually showed... no duuuhhh. A big thanks to Louis for teh hookups. ALLEZZZZ LOUIS!!! :P

good bye aria... its was weird walking out of it this morning... last time that sun hits you when you exit onto st-denis and reality sets in

GOODDDBYEEE ARIAAAA

ps: brendan was drunk and kept touching me in my no-no spot...

Marcus you mofo, i guess i didint show ithere ey? pfff

Wow, what a night, i have to say it was great all around, but the whole time i was so sad. Just thinking of all the djs i have been exposed to over the years because of this place, made me want to just not leave.
Very strong sets by everyone, Maus never stops impressing me, Creators not my style at all but i have huge respect for his mixing prowes, Louis sound has really matured into something special, big props bud. Musically, it was a great way to close the place donw in style, good job to all.

Il never forget the first time i saw Howelles for his monster 12 hour sets, the time Mauro fucking destroyed the place a few years back (2004?), the time i actually got to see Laurent Garnier, the time Dave Clarke didint show but Preach took us to school, the time Zabiela changed my whole perception on mixing, the time Porter and Sasha took everybody in that room to another planet, the time Sasha scared the shit out of me with his airdrawndagger stuff...
I could keep going on and on.


Aria, I will really miss you, you have been very good to us over the years, and you will never be forgotten or replaced.

What a night!!! ....

Lots of good looking women

Had a great time !

I saw lots of people i hadn't seen in more then a year ... including some i never met ... Marcus the movie star ... Enjoy the crazy Russian .. Stereohead who had to go and work at 11 .. Alex who i didn't talk to much but seemed like a nice guy ... Louis behind the decks ... Creator who totally rocked it, you changed styles since i last heard you, great stuff... X-Cube Chilling and wouldn't stop talking about how hot misstress is...


Thanks to Biggy for the club, good luck in the future!

K I really don't like that pic bro; take it off plz.

...

I'm kinda broken-hearted...Don't have much to say, except that the time I was there kinda SUPER sad on the inside...looking at SO much history...GONE, all of it, BOOM, gone. And ya I know I wasn't around for its glory days but damnnnnn, I felt something hurt real bad inside of me when I was watching that dancefloor in my last few moments there.

More later...

OMG soooooooooo nice to see sooooo many people, you guys rock

Excellent choice!

also someone delete that pic too, Enjoy likes finding the worst pictures of ppl when they're hammered.

great night! oh man i was so sad to leave that place for the last time...i didn't wanna walk up those stairs at the end of the night!

at least they ended it off with a quality night! maus was pumping! some very nice beats to get things started!

creator was awesome! great flow, great tracks...I always love your sets man! love that dirty song from the addiction set...tony thomas - extreme i think...keep up the great work! hope to see you around at many other clubs and definately at another after hours!

great to see louis back on those decks again too! nice set, played all the hits! strike me dowwwwwwwn! highlight of my night.

marco was KILLER, loved those hard baselines and the overall dirtiness of it! couldn't stop moving.

miguel was meh, i've never been a big fan of miguel.

crowd could have been bigger, but there were enough people for it to have a nice vibe in there! good to see all the TAs again! like the "old" aria days, of last year lol.

can't believe i'm never going to aria again...of all the montreal after hours it was my favorite and i'll really miss it! thank you aria! gave me some great great times i'll never forget.

I'm heart-broken man...Sooooooooo many amazing memories at ARIA. I still can't get over the fact that it closed..
Walking through the dancefloor in the morning and out of there was the sadest thing in the world...I actually shed a tear..

Great party..Creator blllleewwww me away! ..Awesome set dude, was nice meeting u.

Maus' set was awesomness as well..That little cutie patutie was ROCKING it.

Louis. Great track selection..U opened ur set with some fantastic tunes.

Marco's set was BOOOOOOM BOOOOOM ..He freakin DESTROYED!..It was nice to meet u too.

So many TAs..Partying it up one last time at the unforgettable ARIA (my heart breaks everytime i say that).

After ARIA, me, my hubby, Tag, Bertuzz, and Andre all went to Hakim's house to continue the party there. ..Thanks for your hospitality babe. We had some 10 Coronas each for breakfast. ..Best thing after Afterhours.

Hakim, ur set ROCKED!..CASA BULGA!!! Fuckin love that song man.

I slept till 9 PM today. and still recovering.

Awesome party guys. RIP Aria.

PS: If Stereo closes i'll shoot myself!


Posted by Morales_HIGH5 on Dec-27-2006 04:06:

Crowd could have been bigger...but thats the way it is with Aria.

I really enjoyed Marco G's tracks and I discovered Miguel who was excellent. I hope to hear them both very soon.
Good job to everyone else.

seriously...i was thinking the same thing.

i guess it goes along with the somewhat weak turnout.


Posted by Bertuzz on Dec-27-2006 20:41:

Everyone's pretty much already said what I had to say.

It was kind of a surreal night, the energy was there like it had been in the glory years... but after an hour or so it died out and we were back to the big empty room with 30 people. It's too bad but at least we had one last chance to revisit before closing.

As had been said, it was nice to see all the familiar faces in the familiar places (behind the booth); erika thanks for having us over!!, julius, tag, selma and husband, alex, enjoy, dan, markess. hakim it was nice to meet you finally and for you to have us over after; much appreciated. Props also to the bouncers who went out of their way to help on a night when they probably didn't give a crap.

So that's it, turn the page.
RIP Aria.

Wish I could've been there.....

Ok so the x-mas frenzy is over and I have a little time to write my review... I guess some reviews are missing because it was a big week-end for everybody.

I was so pleased to see so many people. True that people left early, but it was dec 24th after all, I can only imagine if the party was on a normal week-end, it would have been PACKED! Still, the vibe was there, a lot of smiles, and people who came wanted to rock that floor one last time. Thanks to everybody that came and made extra efforts since it was a super charged week-end.

You have put a huge smile on my face. It was the proper and nice way to finish this. You don't how happy I am to have played for you one last time in that club. I was in heaven. Actually, I was so nervous that I didn't sleep before and almost puked (that hasn't happen to me in years!) because I knew inside that it would be an epic night, and something to remember forever.

I was looking at this great DJ team, Maûs who is always so sweet and so refined, great taste in music. Louis who as become a very impressive DJ, I like is sound a lot. What a ladies man! Never seen the booth so full of girls, you are a pimp! Marco G, who has always been so nice to me, always happy, always ready to play. And Miguel who is such a solid performer...

The music was great, and I wish them all good luck.

As for me, I left the place with such a nice feeling. Those 2 years at Aria went by like a flash, but I do keep wonderful memories.

Was nice seeing Erika, Alex, Marcus, Roomie, Tag, Enigmatik, Enjoy and please don't be mad if I forget some names because 1- I have the memory equivalent of a fly and 2- I have a hard time associating user names with faces.

Goodbye Aria.
