Head is pounding, eyes wont stay open, kinda dizzy, BUT IT WAS SOOOOOO WORTH IT!! We all agreed last night that no one would ever believe us when we say how amazing Jim Rivers set was....
We were all slightly apprehensive and full of speculation before the night had begun. Like everyone else we had only heard his transitions sets and some of his own tracks. We really had no idea what to expect in a club environment.
His set was banging right from the get go. I knew that his set was going to go somewhere unexpected but this was just WOW! So many mind blowing tracks that Ill leave for the boys to ID. It was hard, banging, fast, sometimes kinda dark. So many incredible build ups, I think there were points where we are all about to explode. I danced way too hard/too much for a Thursday.... definitely paying for it today. Mikey was humping the DJ booth.
We stayed till the very end, I think he played until just after 3. We all got a chance to briefly speak with him/hug him/take a picture with him after his set. He extremely humble and appreciative of our praises. He told me that he was working on getting some more sets recorded (which is AWESOME!). He is such a cutie. I got home at 3:40 and my ears were RINGING LOUD. Sleeping was impossible. Woke up less than 4 hours later.
As Sasha mentioned the Junkies were pretty good too, they really impressed me near the end.
I havent been to Hotel since it was renovated, its looks very chic, the decor was beautiful. The people were a mix. Some really cool chilled out people, some overly pretentious ones, and some odd balls. We arrived at 11 and it was DEAD but it filled up nicely, but never got packed, it was perfect.
Barb and Jay, super good seeing you guys again! I got to meet Joe which was a real treat
Geoff Im really glad you had a great time and THANKS SOOOO MUCH FOR BRING ME THOSE CDS. What a treat. listening right now and its the only thing making this day seem possible.
And Mikey, Sasha, Sagar... You guys rock <3 tooo many funny moments around the drinking table (i love that table) and the rooftop (I really love that roof). Cant wait to see the pics. SHLAUP THE HUUNDA hahahahaha
Overall Im REALLY glad we decided to jump into the River, none of us wanted to get back out. 3am came too fast.
PS. I woke up this morning and was like "Pete Tong" BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
