i think my reply would b something along the line of the perth review (pretty average first two hours, topped up during the last).. and the vibe didn't seem to b as great as when judge jules played there about 1-2 months ago. that said, some of the tracks he dropped were great (similar to tracks he dropped in perth)... and first time i heard "for an angel" spun live

PvD in Sydney = fucking amazing

he is the best DJ in the world

WOW!!!!!!!!

That was the best set I have heard seen live. All the new PvD tracks were there ..
the new untitled one he dropped at Gatecrasher NEC
PvD vs City - Suzann
Space Brothers - Everywhere I Go (PvD rework)

If you want an idea of the tracklisting, grab his sets from Knebworth, Rosenmontags 02, Gatecrasher NEC and Mayday, combine all the best bits into one .. and that's what he spun last night.

I actually thought the vibe of the crowd was pretty good, but there were too many people on the floor of the main arena. I was about 3 rows back in the centre when PvD took to the decks, and it was more like a mosh pit than a nightclub. It was just that packed.

But still .. waaay better than last year..

heh .. ur right well spotted

foxy mate ur in for a real treat when PvD visits in a month's time

Posted by webmeister on May-11-2002 03:56:

ack forgot to mention .. what did everyone else think of PvD's mixing?

I only noticed one total trainwreck .. there were a few slipups and slight galloping beats, but aside from that I thought he was pretty much spot on...

Posted by Chewy on May-11-2002 09:56:

yeah. i was thinking the same thing. too many ppl = mosh pit.

hey helen_k, we await ur report of ur nite in melb, in all its glorious details

yeah i only noticed one slipup but it was covered up quickly, other than that it was erfect.

i noticed the centre was a mosh pit i was to the right of the dj box against the barrier, i had a clean view from the side, plenty of room to.

of the subject, did anyone saee stephen bradbury there? the guy that one the speed skating gold medal? he was next to me at one stage i had a chat with him, it was weird. lol!

Posted by waXology on May-11-2002 12:21:
