OK, I'm definitely disagreeing with stevebutabi on his evaluation. I guess we just have different ideas of what a good Sasha night is because i remember that he liked the Crobar set which I thought sucked.

As for us, we waited in line from about 9:45 until 11:45-12 to get in at $50 each for Christina and I. It was soooo worth it. I thought his set was really good, and seeing Sasha in such a small venue made even more worthwhile. His first few tracks were really good, and from 3 on, he really banged out, dropping quite a few tracks I knew note for note, but don't know the titles of now or when played. Maybe if I listened through a few recent sets, I'd recognize them. His last track before the encore was Mad 8 - Work This Pussy. He closed up at 4:20 with a track that I know, but can't name at the moment.

Willie Graff sounded like a really good DJ from outside. We met a couple of cool people outside and had bonding experience. Also, it was really fucked up, but Sasha and I were bathroom buddies. I swear, except for once, every time I went to the bathroom tonight, he was there, even during his set. It was very strange.

Also ran into Steven Neil and Sheila, who we'd met at Howells when fairly trashed. Good to see them in a more sober circumstance on both Christina and I's ends. She thanked him for carrying her out the last time they saw Sasha together.

The most ridiculous part of tonight was asking about bottle service and being told that 4 people needed to buy 4 bottles tonight. Yeah, I didn't want to drink a liter of Grey Goose, nor did I feel like dropping $300+ for each of us. The second most ridiculous was some guy asking Sasha out on the smoking area (right before he went on) if he was going to play Xpander tonight. Sasha just looked at him and said "This isn't really the venue for Xpander."

Steve, I assume we talked in line. Which guy were you?? I was the guy in the black leather jacket and jeans with the Taiwanese/Filipino girl in a red jacket.

well sounds like i just missed the best parts, as i got in at 1 and left around 3. the 2 hours i caught were quite uneventful and even downright substandard

dam... i was happy with the 15 mnute wait for FERRY, i cant imagine more than 15 minutes, i woulda died... a couple friends of mine went, said he was really bad (they went to see him at every other Sasha night at Crobar too) and left for Rock Candy afterhours, which they said the DJ there was twice as better and they paid 1/4 and waited 1/24 of what they did at Cielo.... i wasnt there tho, so i wanna hear some more TA reviews!

It really wasn't that bad. Howells at Cielo was worse and the megaclubs are usually worse. At least you could walk around.

Same here about Work this Pussy. I actually hated whenever I heard it. Then I heard it out and thought "Hey... this isn't really that bad!"

yep, i always skipped it in dekays set to get to his remix of belfunk. live its a fuckin tune tho.

lol sasha was singin along to that shit in LA at avalon

shamez did you go last night?



butabi its interesting to note that a couple of months ago you were singing sasha's praises in MD for playing "darker" and having seen him only 2 weeks ago, he most certainly is playing a lot darker, dirtier, and more driving. its hard for me to imagine that he changed his sound that much in 2 weeks that you were compelled to leave after only 2 hrs.

mind you im just calling it like i see, obviously i wasnt there, and of course only you can form your own opinion. im just saying.
