Overall a perfect night. This party was what WMC and trance music are supposed to be all about. Perfect tunes, great venue, and awesome vibe.
I caught a little more than 2 hours of Armin, and he absolutelty leveled Twilo. His set had everything a set is supposed to have: great track selection, perfect transitions, energy galore, and a flow and direction that took the crowd on the ride we all needed to close out a week of madness. No one was standing still, everyone goin off, the vibe was just amazing. And let's just say Armin stayed true to trance, with lots of energy and no prog at all. 
Then came Markus, and with Armin setting such a high standard with an upbeat fast-paced set I knew Markus was gonna bang it out properly, and he did. No fluff, playing harder than I ever remember hearing him play. Nothing slow at all until around 1 1/2 hours in, and that was just a couple of songs to let everyone take a breather. While Armin took the cake, Markus also dropped a great set.
Finally Rank 1 (Piet) came on around 6, and started really techy and hard but kinda slower tempo stuff. Yet he knew what he was doing because by the third or fourth song the crowd really started getting into it and then an all-out frenzy ensued. Hard nasty closing set up until 7:30 when I left. A perfect closer for this night and great choice to do so. Happy that after the prior fiasco, Piet finally got to experience and play at a proper Miami party.
