armins set was monumental!!!

the venue, the crowd and the sound was a disaster
twisted sucks.....over %75 of the poeple in the main room probably dodn't even know who was spinnig....they were to jacked on drugs and flailing around like rag dolls......the probably put the decks 40 feet of the ground to armin wouldn't have to see it..and then the venue is just too big and bright for a good good party....

....man that set would have been so much better in a smaller venue....someones gotta do an AVB goldclub at the commodore

anyway, armin is wicked....you can tell he just loves it!

i thought of something else that really pissed me off.

again, i shouldnt even need to say that twisted sucks ass. another prime example, them turning off running water in the bathrooms. i mean, come on. thats just an all time low.. turning off running water so people have to buy more water. im sorry, but those bathrooms were fucking disgusting after awhile... and i really dont consider supplying hand sanitizer to be an acceptable alternative to having soap and water available at a NICE venue which normally has it, and obviously the only reason it was turned off was for them to make even more money.

the venue, the ppl, the shit aside, armin indeed was loving in. he was so much into providing a good time. compared to pvd, armin was so much out there, dont even have the words to explain it, he's the most energetic dj i've ever seen live and on video.

he droped a really sweet track around 4:30ish. it sounded VERY armin but i never heard it before, it was an amazing track. i dont know if anyone noticed it. i'm guessing its one of his new productions to be on the new album.

some other tracks in the second half that i recognized:
push - universal nation 2003 remake
jurgen vries - the opera song dub mix
masters and nickson - 5th dimension instrumental mix
armin - sunburn
aly and fila - eye of horous (horus??) i dunno lol
from the outside, i thought i heard exhale
pretty sure he also played perpetuous dreamer - the sound of goodbye some dub mix
and motorcycle - as the rush comes
solar stone - solarcoaster midway remix
marco v - c:\*del mp3
we also thought we heard alibi - enternity from outside
eon - pocket dammage

thats all i can think of right now
kinda took some pictures, but my camera got fcked up, so no pictures from me this time :\

That would kick some serious ace!!!!!

Anyone know what the 2nd to last track was?

It was also nice to see him after his set interacting with the people. Getting pictures taken and signing autographs. I tried to shake his hand at the end but all these little twink girls kept getting in my way

Hey Tyler, did u end up getting a picture taken with him?

hmm, sounds like it was an incredible evening. I didn't end up making it out after all, but sounds like the venue/sound was pretty bad.

Sorry I missed Armin though...
Oh well, not too much I can do about it now - guess I'll just have to go see Max Graham, Sasha and Hybrid to make up for it

In Montreal he was disappointing.

Lucky for (some of) you guys who got to see Armin yesterday! He's playing here at Bal en Blanc but the tickets are way too pricy for my liking. Guess I'll have to suffer until June, although I got a taste of him through Sean's cell a few times hehe

By PvD being disappointing I meant for the Montreal show, as that's where Malek is from. PVD rocked it here =)

MIKE - Turn the Lights off
Viframa - Cristalle (Katana Intro mix)

were others he played, I can't remember others but I recognized most.

Pulser - My Religion and MIKE - turn off the lights were the highlight of the night for me, fuck was I ever happy =)

ANd yeah, crowd and sound was sketch. I was talking to Armin's manager who was commenting about how low energy the crowd was, and I explained to him that people in this city, or more specifically at raves, don't really understand the music and just go there to do drugs. I told him to try to hook up with b&h next time for a club show.

Anyways, the DJ area was definitely the place to party at, it's a shame I didn't run into you guys before his set because otherwise I could have gotten you all in there =/

I thought Roc Project - Never was 3rd right after the 3rd Earth?


I found a lot of the stuff he dropped last night had break parts in the breakdowns. One track had a pretty dope breakbeat structure in the build.
