First, if this has already been posted, I couldn't find it, so I appologize.

Second, this is a little out-dated, but I just got all signed up and shit as a TrancEaddict... Yeah!...

Anyway, did any of you fellow TrancEaddicts go to Tonic in Toronto about a month ago to see Paul Oakenfold spin, with Max Graham?

I was all excited about it, went early to line up, and all the groupie stuff.

But, in my opinion, it sucked..

First, I was there from about 9pm (I think that's when I got in, close enough), and I left at about 1:30 am. (Yes, that's early, but I couldn't stand it anymore, it was that bad.)

I heard maybe 1 or 2 trance songs... Now I expected about 90% of the stuff to be stuff I hadn't heard before, and that held true, only it wan't trance, it was house... Maybe a little hard house, and a wee bit of progressive house, but mostly classic house, and boom boom boom - without the music....

As I said, I left early, so I don't know if it got any better later on, but I downloaded a live broadcast from there that I think was recorded around 2-4am, and it sucks too.

Basically, I'm curious if anyone else went, and how they felt about it?

Also, I think Tonic was pretty pathetic as far as security goes... I don't think there was a single minute that I was there that someone wasn't smoking fatty... And I saw some guy walk past me with two BIG handfulls of weed... Just clumps in his hand... I guess he was selling it or just bought it, or whatever, I don't know, but it's sick.

Alright, that feels a little better...

Yeah, i was there...

Got thee at like 8:00! Max graham was very good, kicked Oakeys ass. But as the harder stuff I thought that there would be a more of a banging progressive beat. Progressive seems to be the the craze now.

That night was pretty damn shitty, first of all, I got there really early, 7:30ish, and then waited forever before they let me in. And I was pretty much raped as they searched me before I got in, they even checked my entire wallet. Graham was unbelievable, he played some kickin shit and the club wasn't that packed at that time, but by the time oak came on I couldn't even move. And all these tough ass ginos with no shirts on kept on staring at me everytime I accidently bumped into them. Overall, shitty shitty night
