Last night was just simply amazing. I had a blast meeting up with many close friends. I also met up with a friend that came from BELFAST, IRELAND, and I was hanging out with some friends that came from MEXICO. WOW... It was nice meeting many TA's, sorry if I forget your names. But here are the many TA's I met up with... Sweetcandy Girl, Miss Julia, TSG, RavinChunLi, jennavive00, Photobot, Noree, Ninerlove (Thanks ), DJ Faded, The Quiz, Clovis, RedLunatik, Electrophile, Desiree-Lyn, and I know there's more!!!!

REVIEW...

I got there 2 songs before Morillo went on. I must say Morillo rocked! He played many classic songs including... Pump Up The Jam by Dons feat. Technotronic, Give It Up, Hoes In This House, Plastic Dreams... Wow, he took it back to High School in the 90's... Morillo had me dancing...

MAURO PICOTTO...
Wow!!!! What an awesome set... Like Julia said before, it wasn't his best, but it was really good. His first half was Picotto's old style. Those that didn't see him last night, you guys missed out since he don't play like that anymore. Many classic Picotto tracks. Then, he kicked it up a notch when he dropped New Time New Place, and went on to bang all the new hard techno. WOOHOO... What a perfect transition, the song makes perfect sence because he went from old, to NEW... just like the song says... And OMFG!!!! The crowd went nuts with his hard banging techno. And, LA experienced something that he rarely does... he played his own UNRELEASED track DARK ROOM... That track has never been released, and when Chris from Belfast, Julia, and I heard it... OMFG, we went nuts. That's our song, Mauro played it for us last time at Avalon, and again in Miami!!!! The crowd was going off to it too. I think that was the song that got the biggest reaction from the crowd. I was dancing non stop. I even saw Mauro dance on stage while DJing to this song. He was jumping up and down with a big smile on his face. That's something I have never seen him do. It looked like he was really enjoying his set. And off course, he did his trademark weird faces and hand moves. And did he get new headphones? It looked like he had new white Meganite headphones! Awesome!!!!

EDGAR V...
Not a big fan of Edgar. He was playing alot like Markus. Oh well... Sowwwy...

PVD...
WOOHOOO...
Seeing two of my Top 3 DJ's in one night, almost back to back is simply amazing! MAURO and PVD are my two favorite DJs in the world and Sasha is my 3rd. PVD had me dancing non stop. I screamed so much during his set that I lost my voice!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOO... By this time I was already hanging out with Desiree and her cuzin Julia... Awesome girls, fun times with them always. But wow, I'm speechless. I loved every minute of PVD and Mauro... If only Sasha would've been there, then my night would've been even better.

oh my god... Independance Festival 2005 was just amazing... didnt get there in time to hear Swedish Egil, although i wanted to cause ive never heard his sets before.... got there at the end of dave armstrong's set...pretty disappointing so far...nothing that got me pumped up. Steve Angello...BOOOOOO!!!!! get off the stage!!!. Erick Morillo, he didnt start off too strong but his songs and his energy as a dj got me dancin for sure...definitely one of th ebetter dj's that night. Pimped out Mauro Picotto with the cigarette in his hand rocked the fuckin Coliseum. His intro lasted about hmmm....an hour or so...but WHATEVER IT WAS SICK!!! i loved the energy in the sets...each song built onto the next. When Edgar V came on I was just fuckin amazed with that first track...I seriously wanna find out the tracklist. I think it was his last song that he played that really got me movin! MUST FIND OUT TRACKLIST! ...


and then...the Master of them all...PVD!!!!
literally lost for words all i can say is great intro track, YELLOWBLACKBOARD - SUPERFLY was fucking amazing...great tracks ive never heard of before i seriously need the cuesheet for this one...and great encore...

for the people pissin on him that he played shit from his reflections album...IT WAS A FUCKIN ENCORE...hes gonna play shit by him...

got his autograph too!! so overall it was an awesome night!!!

p.s.
hey and if anyone went there and saw a skinny black guy with sunglasses and some fucked up tied back hair...yea that was me! dancin my ass off!

ah well...i'm sure PVD's show at the mayan will be loads better...and i know for sure that regardless of how good mauro was last night, the next he comes back to LA will be even better.....


he played plenty of stuff that will be on TPOD2

SERIOUSLY....it was off and it seemed like he didnt even care...no attempts whatsoever to catch it...80% trainwrecks.

Angello was SICK...some of his tracks got repetetive though (too much the same style) but he COMPLETELY redeemed himself when he dropped Yoshimoto - Du What U Du (Trentemoller Remix)

Morillo...three fuckin CDJs at once plus EFX unit...

= Ownage

I wasn't feeling some tracks he dropped but Pump Up The Jam was SICK and overall his set was awesome.

Picotto played SOOOOO HARD AND DIRTY...I was really fucked up at that point and it was just too much his mixing was ridiculous and his set was great. Towards the end he slowed it down abit and that was really nice...brought me back to earth cause I was somewhere else during the beggining.


EdgarV had a nice opening set...the fireworks at the end were great...

PVD....


FUCKIN PVD


....


Oh yeah...I just want everyone to remember I said...FUCK TRANCE


...since PVD stole the show.




....I have to say THAT MOST OF ALL... I WENT FOR MY FRIENDS!!!!!

Michelle, Kris, Tigo, Tigo (our crew), Lindsey, Krister, Woody, Julia, Ruben, Bob, Kristina, Gil, Mike (DJFaded), Mike, Brett...all the NEW people I met..

I love you guys!
