Will try to get my pics posted tomorrow evening- needed a day to recouperate, & I'll be working tomorrow, but there are some fun shots on there.
1st off, thanks to Techead & Docks staff for helping me arrange the sneaking in of the cake b4 the party, Marg for helping hand out the slices, and Beh for beautifully capturing the moment.
Congrats to all the TA's who played last night! Good tunes heard from all. With all the good talent happening in different areas, it was hard for me to stay in 1 place for long, and asess the sets. Only wish I could've 'enjoyed' the party, instead of doing paparazzi, dealing w/the cake surprize, lugging heavy camera gear around, which takes a heavy toll on the back & legs.
Ray-still waiting for that Michael Jackson sample in your set. Dennis definitely had the Liberation Lounge rocking, even with stiff competition in the main room. Stilez has the greatest range of styles dropped, starting off w/techno, and ending it on a much smoother note.
I really wish I got to see more of Scott Stubbs, cuz the beats he was dropping were ill, but the cake had to be delivered. (P.S: Put lights in that DJ booth in the Tides room- it's wierd enough having a DJ behind the bar, but when u can hardly see him...  )
I also wish I'd spent more time listening to Matt H, but I divided my time w/Dennis's set. So many nice vocal tracks in Matt's set, a great Filo & Peri tune, and he brought a MUCH needed smile to my face w/his closing track, "Dark Side of the Moon". Matt is so darn sweet too, remembered me from Viva, and admited he couldn't eat his slice of cake cuz he 'still gets nervous before spinning'. Too cute!
Kai is definitely a looker.... no wonder so many people (of both sexes) are so in love with him. What eyes....!  A few songs dropped during his set that I wouldn't have expected ("Just Kick" & "Rocker" & some breaks mix of that Prodigy tune "Out of Space") cuz I was expecting a pure hard trance set.
Walter still managed to drop a load of great tunes, even if Kai played 1/2 of what he was planning on playing. Tune of this set for me: "Sosei"!!!!! 1 of my all time faves....
Very nice of Matt & Kai to meet all the fans before and after their sets.
Props to all the out of towners that came in from places like Rochester, Syracuse, Chicago, Detroit, NYC, DC/ Virginia ( < and they DROVE!) to name a few, just to attend this great party. Always great to party w/the usual crew, see some faces from the past, and meet the new ones.
Highlight of my night was meeting the producer TA DJ_Ampz introduced me to (ID again), who made me feel like a celebrity, he was so happy to have met "THE tatgirl". He is my new best friend, now. 
Happy 5th b-day TA!
