man, im gunna be completely honest, i didnt like Steve Porter's set at all... i was expecting something else, but for Crobar New York, it just didn't seem to belong... now before you go on saying "hey, there's always tech and tribal and dark stuff going on in Crobar, it's good to have a break every once in a while", well this is true, and this is why i'll say i loved Hernan's set last week and Sander K's sets the times i've seen him but as far as last night, i wasn't feeling the music at all, and the pretty ignorant crowd wasn't either (it was reeeeeeeally a college-promoted party so you could tell half the crowd was out-of-town college kids that just went out because it was so heavily-promoted in their school)... the school theme was nice, i think they did a good job with it, not sure about the show, that was kinda out of place, or maybe it was just the killing of the house music into Pink Floyd that was a little awkward (not the DJs fault, i'm sure Porter really didn't feel like having to stop his set for the show)... but with that being said, i still think the music was subpar compared to basically all of my other nights out in Crobar... i love fun, upbeat, energetic, and feel-good house music but for me, last night, it just wasn't connecting with me... maybe i would have said "he rocked it!" had it been another venue but the Crobar vibe just wasn't agreeing with the music...



...on another note, i got 8 guys kicked out before i even walked inside the doors haha... i was on line with 3 girls, and 4 guys and there's this group of guidos from Queens (one of my friends recognized them) behind me, 8 of them, drunk off their asses... one comes up to me and is like "this is my fuckin hat now" and they all laugh as he takes my hat... granted, i did drink but i was so no where near any type of mood to fight, so i turned around and said "who are YOU?" and the kid goes "haha.. who the FUCK are you? i'll kick your ass in 4 seconds" and he shoves me and his friends had the decency to stop him, and eventually i got my hat back... 3 minutes later, the dude's friend takes my hat again, puts it on his head and that was that... i turn around and inform them that "you guys are on the wrong line, DNA is in Queens, and i think it's closing in an hour, you better hurry up, you ****s... what is it, your first time to Crobar?"... and the kid goes "i'll fucking kill you" so i turned around calmly and didn't say a word because i'm a regular at Crobar and i know how to get what i want without fighting... my group gets our ID checked and i tell my friends to go ahead, i'll meet up with them in a second... the group of Queens guidos approach the ID check... i walk up to the kid, take the hat off his head and say "next time you take someone's hat, know who the fuck you're taking it from, the bouncers here know me" (not personally but they know i'm a regular, they say "welcome back" every once in a while) and alas, i had my hat... the dude bugs out and tries to punch me but the bouncers take care of him, and his 8 friends who are so visibly drunk, yelling at me and cursing my ma out... they throw them out and what do you know, there's cops RIGHT there who saw everything... i scream out "never come back to Crobar, DNA's where you belong, you ****s" and i walked in and got my comps 2 minutes before 1AM...

Wow, good thing I went home for the weekend and missed that disaster. I'd be pretty pissed if I heard The Wall dropped in the middle of a house set. That said, I'm hoping the 18+ crowd at G&D next week is better.

Also, I want to take this opportunity to defend the minority of us 18-21 who are there for the music and not to jack anybody's hat. We do exist, just wanted to make that known

Finally, not to thread-jack, but does anyone know how the crowds at the Roxy would be when Rauhofer is there? I'm into that kind of house, but I have to admit that, as homophobic as this sounds, being hit on by a bunch of gay guys isn't my idea of a good time.
