*hug*

so i will write my tiny yet very important review about this party.

i am so glad we got there early. got in without any issues.

the rest is just highlights:

1. Demi is my new best friend.
2. Digweed had the set of the night but only very marginally.
3. Jaspa enjoys water.
4. Armin is tall.
5. Marcus is not as tall.
6. Sharam and Ali have a LOT of energy.
7. Sharam doesn't like when people swear.
8. Demi is my new best friend .
9. Cold canon is THE SHIT especially when you are trying to grab some bums.

What time did Armin play until?

Armin ended around 8:30am after 2 encores.

Yeah, I just remember looking over onto the dancefloor at like 8am, and see demi grooving it up in the middle of a pack of TAs. Demi, you're the man, when's the next extended set we'll see from you here? I like it best when you've got a ton of time to work with.

And margs, you are just trouble.

what are you talking about?

Really Great Party the Guv threw we came from Montreal a Bunch of People and I was pleasently surprised By Markus and Blank and Jones were sick even more so then Swirl. Armin well Its Armin I Loved his set even though it was too hard sometimes I even got to chat with him a bit. For people that think that Armin Only plays same old school trance forget about it hes changing a bit his style and I think its pretty good not that before it wasnt. Hes a Dj not necessarily a Trance Dj like everyone gives him that title. I gotta say the energy in front of the Dj boot while he was On WAS SICK Digweed was ok but looks boring in person Deep Dish I ve heard better.

Dance Like You ve never danced before

wow amazing party, better than last years

glad i flew up for this


blank and jones stole the nite----unreal pure trance energy.........ive never seen a room go off like they had it going.....i was shocked

armin played like a champion, banging it hard, best set ive seen from him in two years....about time......if only the asot fluffmaster played like that all the time....im hoping for a repeat performance at his SPACE debut in october.

so the party was streamed? are the sets going to be available?

Unfortunately, due to the long lineup for the KH, i missed all of Markus Schulz. Usually the lineup is long (length wise), but in the past it would move rather quickly. THat wasnt the case tonight unfortunately, and i missed one of the DJs i wanted to see the most.

Grayarea - Dont know why they were even on the bill. A couple of songs were ok, but for the most part, i didnt like it at all.

Blank & Jones - The DJs a wanted to see the most that night. Absolutely great set. I loved the whole thing, they owned the night IMO.

Armin - Once he came on, it was obvious they turned the system in the KH a lot louder. I think they should of done this when B&J came on. I can only comment on the first 1 1/2 - 2 hours. Honestly, i was dissapointed with it. There were a couple of good tracks played, but overall i didnt like it so much. Armin has a tendency to save the good stuff for the very end, but my gf and I didnt really feel like there was much reason to stay longer.

Overall, a fun party =)

Media guestlist screw up - took me half hour to get in...no biggie I did not mind waiting. Thank you PAT for being aggressive because I was just going to go home...This happened to a few of my friends - thank God everyone made it in o.k.

DEMI KILLED IT - for me: BY far the BEST all night. Kind of reminded me of Lawler...Special mentions to Grey Area (very cool shit) and Andy C in the DnB area....

Congrats to ETN fora successful live streaming...hugz!

WAY TOO crowded for me...did not like that there was such incredible music but I could not move....Set up as far as the way you had to go around the entire club kind of sucked.

Loads of love to everyone I had met and seen....LOVE YOU DETROIT CREW!!!!!!

*** This is MarkT posting from chrismack's account because I'm a dumbass and can't remember my password and the post-party has not ended...beer + thai + uber trance tunes spinning all day and night long ***

solid solid night...I'm always wary of these big events, but this one rocked.

Marcus *ripped it up* in KH to open the night...hadn't heard him since his appearance at Guv in '04...this man is a brilliant producer and a wicked DJ...aweseome set!!! I would love for him to come back on his own in Guv...one of best nights for me was that '04 appearance for sure...love his style!

greyarea...never seen them...great idea, unfortunate execution...the sound system was *fucked* for their set, so I took off for the tent.

Nathan Barrato was dropping some great tracks...This is Sick...WICKED TUNE! that almost made my night...cool to see Steve (cereal_something ) and Sara in the tent

Headed up to the lounge, ran into Graham, RJ and Margaret (send the pics!)...Digweed was rippin' it...dropped a track or two from his recent Essential Mix which was *awesome* to hear as it's in the regular rotation at home...very very happy that I managed to catch a bit of his set.

2am...time for Blank & Jones...and HOLY F**K...UBERTRANCE!!! Hate to say it, but B&J upstaged Armin in a big way...such a good set of pure, no-nonsense TRANCE!!! My first time catching them and they were beyond amazing...trance the way it was meant to be played

Armin is Armin...no offense Tijs, but Armin is the #1 DJ in the world...talented producer, excellent DJ, and gets the crowd involved like few others...his energy and enthusiasm is absoultely infectuous...proggy hard set, as is him norm now...but at the end he dropped some monster tracks...Marco V's mix of Clocks was cool to hear, along with Cafe del mar - Energy 52.

bailed partway through to hit the skybar for some air and to catch a bit of Demi who was spinning some lower key house...nice to see Nat and Frank up there...after a breather, headed back to KH to shut the place down around 8:30. I can't ever remember that many people being in KH when the lights came on.

Hot as hell in KH all night, but plenty of room to dance...sound system was *shit* after B&J...they really need to fix that...otherwise a very solid night...well enough organized and not overly rammed at all in KH.

it goes without saying that I will NOT be at work tomorrow

Marcus was on when we arrived in KH and he was doing a great job. Good energy. The only problem I had with his set was that for many of the tracks he dropped, I'm used to hearing the trance mixes of them so the proggy mixes seemed a bit weird to me. Good set nonetheless.

Second time I've seen grayarea and yet again I did not like them. More than anything the sound was completely distorted no matter where I went in the KH and I couldn't understand a word the guy was saying. So I left KH and took refuge in the tent which was quite pleasant.

Danced on the stage at guv for a good 45 mins to Digweed's set before heading up to the Drink for High Contrast. I had been waiting to see him live since I heard his 2003 essential mix. Unfortunately, he did not live up to my expectations and it wasn't really his fault. His MC Caddy Cad sucked ass... the guy wouldn't shut the fuck up and drowned out the music. I stuck it there for as long as I could then headed back to KH for B&J.

Wow, B&J was throwing down an insane set. I'd have to agree that this was the best trance set of the night (sorry Armin)... everyone was going abusolutely nuts. I'm no good with tracks names but the set was high energy and had good flow. That's all that matters.

I didn't want to leave in the middle of B&J's set but I could not miss my reason for my being at LOL4... namely, Andy C & GQ. OMFG... they had the Drink jumpin. They never disappoint... absolutely love these guys. "someone gimme a lightah!"

For the next 4 hours I went between KH (Armin), Guv (Deep Dish) & the tent. They were all hammering out great tunes and drained me of whatever energy I had left. The last 2 hours of Armin set was great... lots of classics which is what I wanted to hear!

Big up to all the TAs... you guys were everywhere. Saw some faces I haven't seen in a long time... you know who you are! Yet another LOL with my best buds loconet & loca... wouldn't be the same without you guys. My next party will prolly be Carl Cox next month. See ya'll on the dance floor.

edit:
damn, how could I forget the best part!!
So we're walking back to the car after leaving KH. I had my head down becuz I was exhausted. Suddenly I hear Lauryn who was ahead of me say, "thank you, Armin" so I look up and right there in front of me is Armin, less than a foot away! All I could muster up was the same thing Lauryn said and shook his hand. hehehe... that was pretty cool.
