Maybe because it is my main stomping grounds, I don't find it to be sketchy at Heaven at all. The four huge booths behind the DJ booth were all people I know, so that was fab.

Markus killed it! I barely stopped dancing. He played lots of great harder tracks and a few classic cheesey ones too.

He was a super nice person too. Very humble.


By far the best night I have had at Heaven. The manager says that he is planning a few more big name trance DJs for the upcoming year too!

Nice to see Partygurl, Chris Fly, Dj Charlie, and DJ Charlie's bud Malek I think his name was?

Sorry for any bad experiences you might have had, I sure hope you make the trip again should we get another act that interests you.

It was a great night, especially considering it was my first time in Ottawa. I used to think that the party scene in Ottawa would be pretty lame but I now stand 100% corrected. Heard there would be more trance DJs coming in 2007 so looking forward to more events there. And of course awesome seeing Markus again.

Great meeting some of you guys... RobbieJ, 84th Ave, Oneeleven, and anyone else.

See some of you at Resolution for Tiesto.

i hardly ever make it out to edm events (last one i belive was sundance in the summer) these days but the oppt to see markus in ottawa couldn't be missed!

i had a great night!!! the security was acutally very good and friendly... i felt pretty safe and the sketchiness label some ppl put on heaven is unjust. sure there were some odd ppl but they are everywhere.

Music: hot. danceable. fun. being out of the scene for such a long time it was cool hearing practically all new tracks. i only knew a few remix of Touch Me was awesome! the sound system sounded like it was just about to fucking die. hahaha

overall i expected the place to be half full.. but it was nice to see the size of the crowd. also it was cool to see ppl actually enjoying trance. yey.

oh and whoever complained about waiting outside: its called fucking coat check ok? they cant have everyone enter at once cause it will create a bottle neck at the coat check. so thats why u had to wait in line even if the club was indeed empty inside.

see you next year

I believe I have enough "clubbing" experience to know what is a coat check and what is a coat check operated by turtles.

from how fast i got served at the coat check... I don't think the problem was there...
The bouncer at the door was letting like 5 people get in every 5 mins. Are the coat check girls are that slow ?
this was clearly a situation where the club wanted to show the world they were having a busy night so people walking around would think that they were having a crazy party inside so they would go there instead of another club. which wasnt the case at all.
For sure the club lost money cause it wasn't packed enough to cover the charges for Schulz. Thats what i believe. This DJ isn't playing for free. There was like what... 200 people ??? max 300
is 300 enough to make money that night ? Definitly not !
And knowing their alcohol license stops at 2am. and the club was filled up at like 1am... how do you want to make money ?

Tell me how is this club working on a regular night ? is there more or less people ?

Yes tag you keep thinking that. U're probably the sketchiest dude on this board, always bashing other's fun nights out, while you sit at home and god knows what you do with your spare time...

You wanna know a fact I'll give you a fact EVERY FUCKING EDM CLUB THATS OPEN TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC AND IS NOT PICKY WITH THEIR CLIENTELE WILL HAVE SKETCHY PEOPLE IN IT...

And even so if they don't bug me I could give two shits how fucked up they are.

i dont understand this sketchy thing.
is the Heaven crowd really different compared to those of other clubs in ottawa ?

No pat downs at Ottawa edm clubs so go figure

I dont go to this club on a regular night.

Just logically think about it. At Heaven i noticed that it takes about 45 seconds or a minute for one person to clear all of hte necessary steps and enter the club.

id: 5 sec
pat down: 10 sec (SPIN LADEN they were doing it that night)
pay: 15 sec
check coat: 20 sec

so if you have 20 ppl in front of you in line then you will wait around 15-20 min before getting in. thats how long i waited.

as you noticed heaven is to small to have a queue form inside the club.

but then again the club might have been doing exactly what you said they were... trying make it look "busy". but on a shit freezing rain night like last friday i doubt they would attract much of a 'walk by' crowd. S\

I've been there twice, and i've had pat downs both times....

maybe i just look suspicious.....

Taggers can call me sketchy all he wants. I really don't think Heaven is.

Daylight and Illusions of Ottawa, now **that** was pure sketch. And pretty much any club in Gatineau.
