Well, I walk in with my buddy around 9:30(after doing multiple circles around Sonar trying to find it =P) and Luke Fair just came on. He spins a great opener set. I really enjoyed it.

40 minutes after 11, Sasha appears looking high as a kite. I quickly move up front with Limin, Reuben, Dave, and my buddy(Sorin) so we can get a good view for his set.

Sasha bangs it out. Track after track was bangin. Loved every second. And suddenly, when everyone least expects it, he cuts it all out and plays a really chill track right in the middle to give everyone some breathing time, then, the track evolves into a harder track after a few minutes where he returns to his usual devices.

Sasha's set tended to stay toward the Progressive Trance genre, though a few of the tracks played could be argued otherwise.

I ended up having to leave at 1:40(thought it was 1:30, watch was wrong) because my friend Sorin had parked his car at my house 25 minutes away, and then from my house he had a 1.5 hour drive ahead of him =/. If it wasn't father's day, woulda stayed for the whole thing.


Basically, for what I saw, i really really enjoyed the set. Although short, and my first live sasha(and sonar) experience, i had a wonderful time. I am a huge sasha whore, but I can bash the people i like, and I can say there was nothing wrong with what this man did tonight. I loved it. And I hope everyone else did as well.

Rollcall for who I remember: Limin, Reuben, Dave, Erin, Joel, 2 of Limin's friend TAs, at least 1 more TA who I met at AMIT's house party which the name I unfortunately cannot remember =/.

Overall, had a great time, and hope to see Sasha drop by the DC area sometime soon. Next in my lineup is DIGWEED on 8-28 @ GLOW (if 18+).

EDIT: I cannot believe that retard THREW THE SHIRT AT SASHA, WHICH LANDED ALMOST ON THE DAMN TURNTABLES. Freakin moron.

EDIT 2: Found out Sasha was 40 minutes late because of traffic for driving down to baltimore from new york. In a limo of course, what else =P

EDIT 3: Pictures, courteousy limin_li: SASHA PICS

Videos coming soon(most likely on another host).

GOOD GOD Sasha owned Sonar tonight!

That's about all I can say right now, too tired to think . Will post more after i sleep.

The very last track was Matthew Dekay - Higher Thoughts....what a perfect way to end the night!

I hope someone can ID the track he dropped right before that... I'm thinking U.N.K.L.E - In A State (Sasha Remix) but I'm not sure
