above & beyond put on a very solid trance set! best i've heard in a long time! Great tunes all around. Stephano played a more progressive set then what i'm used to from him, but nonetheless, a great opener! Good times to be going back to dragonfly again!

I must say that drive home to hamilton is a little hazy though, if you're tired on that stretch of QEW, it can be quite dangerous since its dark and feels like you're driving into a void.

Oh man what an awesome night! Just woke up (5 hours of sleep) my body is sore from an amazing night. I loved how the venue wasn't packed at all and the intimate setting with Above & Beyond, their energy and crowd interaction is just unbelievable. Few points of my night I was totally stunned and dazed by the music.

Got to meet a few TAs for the first time: Mortyman, Oldman1313, Jer,Purplehaze, it was great partying with you guys. Also with Peter (Coxx) thanks for the pics.

One complaint about the night though, is the damn bouncers at the front. A few of my friends tried getting in and was denied because their hair didn't look like them... They drove from Toronto and bought their tickets online just to be denied. One bouncer asked if my friend wore contacts and to take it out to prove it. Apparently they do this on many different occasions, I've talked to a couple people who were trying to help my friends and they said it happens all the time.

I'll post full review later just woke up still kinda tired...king of my castle was definately one of the highlights of the night I was jumping around going mental, and Im glad I could do that with all that free space around

Awesome awesome awesome time, awesome crowd of people and friends to be there with, fucking AMAZING set, bomb track after bomb track and the highlight of the night for me:

I asked them to play good for me which was the track I wanted to hear all night, and he gave me a big grin and thumbs up so i was pumped to hear it...then the dreaded fading out came around 3am and i still didnt hear my track and it was early so I was kinda emo, we chanted and begged for another track and guess what they played......YEP, GOOD FOR MEEEEEEEE MY BABYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

omg i just felt totally complete for that 5 minutes, singing along, hugging people, bowing down, BLISS

need to gather my thoughts right now, great meeting new TAs you guys are the bomb

Yeah you were all over the place yelling "I REQUESTED IT!" I know how you feel, I asked them to play Satellite for me in Montreal for Bal en Blanc and it's an great feeling having them play it for you.
