Well, i'll be the first person to say that I actually thought his set was boring and uninspired.

He would build and build and then instead of keeping the energy high, he'd slow the tempo down. WTF

I left at 1:30, it wasn't worth being super tired at work (where i'm posting from).

If it got better later in his set, thats cool, but his first half was pitiful, imo.

"I’m a dance floor favorite? Great! I would say the passion that I feel for the music I buy and the honesty with how I play it. I play the records I love not the ones that simply work. I’ve never taken the easy music option (which would make me a lot more money by the way) but chosen to push people a little. I try to draw people in a new direction slightly and expand their taste a little more than other DJ’s." - Lee Burridge

To be completely honest, I am guilty of smoozing with people all over the club. Having said that, I thought his set flow was outstanding. Tech trance in the beginning with little to no buildups. In true PvD fashion his opening track is an eye catcher. And then trancier stuff crept in half way through the set.

I've noticed PvD has been working on his stage presence. Lots of hand gestures, dancing and geniunely enjoying himself. The crowd loved it.

After all these years, I've discovered a little secret about going to a PvD party. Do not listen to his sets often. As I religious did. It completely ruins the clubbing experience.

B+ for PvD

i agree with the listening. i would even add to not see him more than once or twice in a year, just my opinion, of course.
