Overall a good night, great seeing / meeting a bunch of you: Trance Addix, Ellipse, YankeeBaby, InterMilan, Ali, Neil. Armin's selection was great and kept the crowd up for it all night long. My only real complaint was that Spirit was way too crowded! I've been there a bunch of times now and this ranks way up there in how many people I've seen there. I was right in front of the DJ booth for the first 1 1/2 hrs of Armin's set, dancing my ass off (when I wasn't potentially being trampled), and then from it being so hot in there, I had to go off to the side for about an hour or so. I made my way back towards the middle of the dancefloor later though and stayed til about 6.

Personally, I think between this and his draw last time at Crobar, that Armin has 'graduated' Spirit and that his future gigs should be in the bigger venues like Crobar or Roxy. I thought his set would have been amazing in Crobar with a bigger space to move around and lasers. Oh well, guess there's always next time.


Yeah nice meeting you! OMG I had an amazing time..girls galore..music awesome time too bad i left at 4

for what reason ?

Remy was good but he just wasn't doing it for me. Armin was amazing -- wish I could have stayed longer but I'd already been up for 24 hours so it was probably a good thing that I left

oooo and i lost my coatcheck ticket and they said they couldnt check for my coat until close, but i couldnt close, i hadda wake up early today, has this happen to anyone before, and if so, did you find it in good condition when you claimed it in lost and found (was it hard for u to claim in lost and found?).... im freakin out, i love that jacket



ohhhhh noooo...that was me up there...sorrrrrryyyy! I don't know who's album it was, someone handed it to me and I tried to get it signed.... the bouncers were such asses.
I had a great time regardless aside from all the pushing and shoving because it was so packed in there. even crobar back in sept. was crowded but nothing like that.

IDK, but the crowd made it better...it had this awesome atmosphere in there...especially during the build-ups!

Wow i just got back to rochester and i have to say i cant remember the last time ive been this knackered....Armin definately played a fantastic set last night... one of the best ive heard from him ... so many tracks i didnt recognize and need to get a hold of ... one thing that was missing though was that he wasnt as animated and into the crowd as he usually is in toronto... i noticed a lot of people giving him their cell phone with requests or messages which im not sure is a good thing to do since djs like taking the odd request once in a while but not all the time... the place was rammed till 4 after which it cleared up a lot and i back the suggestion that armin play at a bigger venue next time ... i was surprised as to how small the dance floor at spirit was and the many guys grinding their girlfriends around the floor like some ragged doll didnt exactly help the sitation

highlight of the night was the black guy on the podium with the WWF championship belt.. at the end of the night when armin came of stage breifly he went up to him with the belt and said you are the CHAMPION

tracks i recognized

perasma - swing 2 harmony
interstate - remember me (terry bones mix)
Armin - communication
Armin - seven cities
Armin - who is watching
Armin - shamu (??? mix)
u2 - Streets have no name (Nu nrg mix)
Eric Pryda - Aftermath
Coldplay - talk (junkie xl mix)
G&D - Tracking Treasure down
Marco v - false light
Alex stealthy - Able to forget
Luminary - Amsterdam (Smith and pledger mix)
Marcel Woods - Advanced
Ferry Corsten - Whatever (Marcel woods mix)

by the way...anyone know what the name of the last song he played? not seven cities. there was one with a female vocal. it was within the 3-5 last tracks he played. maybe 3rd to last?

his set was the bomb. wish he played more vocal tracks to mix it up. he spins very hard in ny.
nonetheless...awesome AWESOME TIME!

ok here's a lil more of a review from me!

Met up with Ben (Intermilan) and Neil (Bad Bad Neil) at the stamford train station. We checked the info. booth at grand central for the CT TA's but we couldn't find anyone! lol!

we got to spirit checked out remy from upstairs for a bit then headed down to get up front for armin. ran into doombot and his girlfriend (hope the show was a great b'day present! )
and then as I always seem to run into colehawk and friend! met Big Mike and BigMike, Sebring Vandit, got to hang out with elipse for a bit. Def. great to see/meet you all!

Neil and Ben will prob. have a different story, hahaha, we were debating this on the way home today.... haha! I def. had my share of drinks and was def. feeling super lit! I was lovin' it! I was just having a great time, somehow I climbed on the dj booth to get someone's record signed and just take pics., but then the bouncer freaked out. ah well.

other than that I was totally loving armin's set! it was awesome! remy, well, he was ok.

we hung out front for a while but kept getting squished by all the people so we chilled upstairs for a bit before coming back downstairs again.

I def. would prefer to see him at crobar again over spirit. I didn't think spirit was a bad venue like I had heard from some, it was pretty decent. just overcrowded.

Neil, Ben, hope you guys got home the rest of the way safely! It was great hanging out with you! Ben, thanks for waking me up on the train and for driving us back to glenbrook! you guys are a lot of fun to hang with!....although I know you think I am crazy for climbing the dj booth and not waiting to get on Big Mike's shoulders instead! lol! it was all in good fun!!

LEGEND...ah-hem, where were you! we were all supposed to hang out!!! could not find you at all! Sucks we didn't get to hang out!

here's some pics. from last night!
