Overall all, it was a pretty good night. The place was packed which was great to see. I did have about 5000 sweaty topless guys rub against me as they shoved their way through the crowd, but what ya gonna do. This was the first time I had been to Talbot St. and I guess I was a little dissappointed. The way it is set up you can't stand anywhere on the dance floor for more than 2 minutes without some one trying to push through you to get to the front or back. As far as the music goes, I really didn't like Liquid Todd all that much, so we went into the second room for most of his set. It was much cooler and less packed in there, and I enjoyed some of the local talent until they started to play DnB, which is not my cup of tea. When we went back into the main room Hernan was just coming on and he tore the room off. He alone was worth the price of admission. His transitions were so good that I could barely tell when he moved from one song to the next (I was a tad drunk as well). I definelty agree with everyone about the lighting on the DJ. I couldn't tell when Hernan left the stage and Oakey came on until Reign played because I figured Hernan wouldn't play that. Then once I heard the transition into the next song I knew there was no way Hernan was playing anymore. All I ever saw of Hernan was his curly hair, and I never saw Oakenfold. As far as Oakey's set goes, I was pretty dissappointed. I saw him several years ago and he just seems to get worse as time goes by. I didn't expect flawless mixing or anything, but I really didn't enjoy the track selection either. It was nice to hear Trafic on a large system and the remix of Greece 2000 was nice, but other than that Oakenfold was not very memorable. We spent most of Oakey's set chilling in the VIP, which was worth the money just to have a place to sit and restrooms without a line a mile long.
Seth, what happened to the DJs being in the VIP and the special guest with the initials DG????
