Originally posted by neogaia We were going to go have breakfast with Menno at Denny's but the promoters or club owners insisted that he not go, cause he had a flight in the morning. But he is super chill guy in that he was willing to go hang out with us trance addicts/crazy clubbers at Dennys.

wait, seriously? cuz my friend Koong was trying to organize that get-together (we were hanging out with Koong the whole time), he actually called the promoters/managers, and then asked Menno personally if he wanted to go to Denny's again like they did back in 2006! Of course it was too bad about the early flight BUT understandable, but yeah Menno definitely was agreeable to it and I felt he was soo personable in that he spoke with Koong on the phone himself and even remembered him!! Drew n I were just listening to the conversation on speakerphone, amazed. hehe

i didn't go up in the dj booth cuz i was too busy dancing, but yes i saw how easily it was for ppl to go up in the dj booth as well, my bf Drew went up briefly to take pictures of Menno.

Hmm I hope ppl post pics up from the night! I'm sure Drew will put his up when he gets the chance.

Glad you had a kickass time Maybe we will have the chance to meet in person the next time we head down to DC again.

Oh I probably saw you! I was hanging out with DLW and he was chatting with who i think Koong is. (We were hanging outside afterwards. We were a black guy (DLW) & a hispanic girl (me) and we started talking to a group of asian people outside of fur)

So I think we saw each other!

Dunno what happened with the whole Denny's thing, all I know was that Menno was willing to go, and I heard that the promoters or whomever else told Menno he probably should go to the hotel cause he had an early flight. So definitely thanks to your friend Koong for almost getting us to hang out with Menno!

Yeah hopefully I'll see you next time you are down in DC, or next time I am up in NYC

AT the time though I hadn't really met or talked to DLW till the house party afterwards. lol oh damns. hahaah! it was interesting cuz after i wrote my post, I thought about it and i **WONDERED** if that had been you next to DLW. rofl!!! YES i was the only girl there so yups you definitely DID see me... and my bf Drew1127, he was the one wearing the grey fleece and black-rimmed glasses, not sure if u recall him being next to me. lol.

It wasn't the club or promoters We don't mind what after parties Menno goes to with the fans, he is a free man

In my opinion you missed one of the best parties I have been to in a long time. 10/10 !!! Definitely in the top 5 thus far!! Yes, we're part of the party but the vibe was just amazing! The atmosphere was perfect, you could feel the energy from of everyone in the room. I didn't tracklist his songs but I really enjoyed the variety of tracks he played. I think it was a combination of the crowd energy and his set that made the night exceptional and one not to forget !! Everyone was cool!! No fights, No problems. Considering we were up against Chrisopher Lawrence accross the street I was very happy with the turn out. To some of you that came at 2am (get there earlier!!! You missed half his set haha) Normally we do not like to pair up trance party to trance party but this was the only date that we could get Menno. I hope the DC people were able to appreciate the party!! Menno is real friendly and cool guy. Afterwards he took some time to sign some flyers, and take some pics.
Hope to see the DC area people at Andrew Parsons / Tim Grube show this Saturday for more of a progressive night and then the week after, full on trance with ATB - Feb 23rd!!!!!

Here are few pics from show and a video clip..

Then Swamper and his entourage of 30, who were all wearing TA monogramed Rolexes, left the room and flew to Hawaii for a few hours because Del wanted fresh coconut. To his defense, Trump didn't even really look like a bum.

oh of course not. Menno had told Koong while on stage during the party then on the phone personally that he wanted to hang out afterwards and told us to talk to JavD about getting directions to go to the breakfast spot. it was JavD he was too busy/tired. lol. really too bad, i wouldn't have minded meeting JavD too. great job in getting him to DC folks

well its totally 'different type of events' so right, Wai did niot miss out by far, just seeing him in a month. His party at DC was good for what it was, especially within the environment of the revitalized DC scnce. and yes agreed very lucky to have gotten him. kudos!~ thank god hes making a stop in NYC too this year as well.

the Montreal show is sure to be kickass!!! esp since it *is* Bal en Blanc. the vibe is going to be incredible as they are at massives like that!! Can't even compare the two, period, and most djs spin so much better/differently at events outside of the United States!! man i wish i was going lolz...ah wells.
