you toronto losers think you're all that because you are bigger... your scene in comparison to ours doesn't even come close... I have 4 really good friends, of them my best friend, move down to toronto because of a job (all 4 of them at the same place, heh), and it has been about 3 months, and let me tell you, they hate it... the only place they found that came close was guvernment, but even then, the people there, the energy felt, and everything esle related to that was garbage compared to a night at aria, or sona... you know how it is at certain clubs and bars in montreal, the attitude is so flowing that i am beyond words when there isn't a fight or an argument... its the same thing there... they all had the same impression... the people you are dancing for 4-5-6-... hours, which are 2 inches from you the whole night, if it isn't a relaxed, happy, cheerful experience, it ruins the night... I'm going down to TO in a couple of weeks to see them, and we'll be going to the guvernment, to see steve lawler... I can't wait, but not expecting a night similar to the one that I would have at aria or even sona (and you guys know how i feel about sona)...
other than that (quoting Biggy):
Many festivals and party like:
Black & Blue
Bal en Blanc
Cream
Gay Pride Week (over 1 million people, biggest in Canada)
Arrivals
Formula 1 week-end (Canada biggest event and money from outside the country)
Jazz Festival (World biggest)
Cart Indy racing week-end (thats Toronto Biggy)
Just for Laugh festivals
Francofolies Festivals
And some party like:
OASIS
Swirl
Celebration
and all other underground party (less than 3000 people)
Clubs and afterhours like:
Aria
Sona
Stereo
Red-Lite
Level
Ilume
Sky
Unity
Groove Society
Jet club
Living
and many many mores...
Absolutely no comparison.... look, I'm not saying that the toronto scene sucks, i'm just saying that you guys don't come close to the amount of house/techno/trance music festivities that we have, let alone all the other stuff quoted... fine your city, I have to admit, the last time I went down, which was 2 months ago (was the first time then in about 10 years), I was very impressed by the city size, and how it resembled so much New York... all the shopping centres, Younge street, queen street, no comparisons to St-Catherine boulevard, or St-Laurent... very dynamic, and all that, but still i have to go back to the people... when you walk on montreal streets, you can feel the warmth of the people... Toronto has none of that... and it is reflected to the underground scene very much so, and it is the major downfall... when I am at a rave or after hour, when walking around, I love to see people with smiles on their faces, looking like they are having a good time, and when i see that, i tap the person on the shoulder, and we have a wink... the same thing as saying I'm happy that you are happy (drug or no drug)... and the person taps me on the shoulder, it is mutual... I get most of my energy from that... and that is what drives me during the night... of course the music is also a main driving force on me, but if there was no mutual happyness (and showing it), i dont like it...
anyways, i've rambled on for long enough... just my thoughts on this subject, which i waited a little, wanted to see the outcome...
