So this is the first event I can remember since somewhere back in 2005 that I went into feeling like a bag of ass and exited feeling awesome. It was just that good.

Lee (it was Lee up there first, right?) actually played a great warm-up set, WAY better than the nonsense at Skybar. Kind of slow progressive but more on the quirky and mysterious side than the elevator music they normally open with in clubs. Luke Fair played even funkier tunes than his Footwork set (a little more downtempo IIRC, more like his Kiss100), it was absolutely perfect afternoon boat music and there was even room to dance. Nic got a little on the chuggy side for an hour or so but returned to some more bangin' classic house tunes afterwards.

And Star Guitar <3

Musically this was a stellar event. Add some perfect weather and good friends and - so far at least - this was the event of the summer for me (we'll see if I'm still saying that after SOS).

And no G-outs, as far as I could tell! A little bit of sketch in the form of pushy off-balance shirtless dudes near the end, but nothing unexpected.

Quite frankly, anybody who missed this on account of being tired from the Guv made the wrong choice. But hey, more space for the rest of us!

Haha that explains why it sounded different... I only remember seeing one person though?

Just forget I said anything. I was still trying to wake up, didn't have the brainpower for complicated mental tasks like recognizing faces.

It was a fun cruise, not my favorite
Wasn't feeling any of the music.
Best set was Baby Joel.

I honestly had more fun at Reign.

AGREED

Baby Joel's set saved it for me and was the only one I really danced to. BUT the people I went with were awesome so i still had a good time. BUT was a much bigger fan of the music on the last beats ahoy cruise.

just curious, did you find the music more 'commercial' then if they had played at a club?

i've never been on a boat cruise, but personally i don't think i'd be down for hardcore minimal beats on a beautiful sunny day, save that for the sketchy clubs.

ps. anyone know where i can see some pics from the event?

Friends + Fun + Sun + Fanciulli = What I was looking for goin on my 1st cruise in 4 years.

I got even more than that.

I got to hear Star Guitar at the close. (Been waiting for that for years!)

Top marks to everyone on the boat!

(I won't even complain that we let the dock nearly an hour late & got back 30 min early)
