What a night! I'd been bigging it up so much this week, and I can safely say I was not disappointed in the least. I gathered up a group of friends who have had a passing interest in trance in the past little while, and got in while Gareth was spinning. I've been listening to his podcast religiously for the past year now, and I enjoy his style, but what he produced last night was something else. He completely blew away my expectations with bomb after bomb and great energy in pumping up the crowd, so my level of respect for the guy has been completely elevated to a different level.
Then came Menno. I couldn't agree more with Elyot that his set was A LOT harder than I was expecting, but it was still impressive. I was moving the entire time, and closer to the end he started playing the stuff I was a lot more familiar with, so I was very happy. I even got to meet him later on in the night (which was awesome), and he's so humble, he didn't even mind that I had to throw a water bottle at his feet to get his attention! The inside scoop: We can expect an Intuition Vodcast in the not too distant future. 
'Wow' is the only thing that comes to mind when I think of Jennifer Rene (what a hottie!). As was said, she emptied the dancefloor pretty quickly, but she really started to pick it up later in her set, and had me going until close. Barring some questionable transitions, to put it lightly, she played a lot of tracks I was hoping to hear throughout the course of the night, so I was relieved about that.
With this being my first time in the Guv, I saw some whacked out stuff in the crowd I've definitely never experienced before, but the energy was so intense, I had an easy time ignoring it. Also met some friendly TAs, which was a great experience because people were so warm and welcoming, but I'm definitely looking forward to a lot more events like this. Cheers to everyone that came.
Oh, and memorable song of the night had to be Leon Bolier - YE (dropped by Gareth Emery). 
Edit: I just remembered Jennifer Rene having her own cheering squad behind her. What was that all about?
