PVD debates are always the funniest.
Bottom line is I think everyone who went agrees on the fact the party was good, but the set was way too short. I also believe Melly is right, they should not promote it as some grand event "first terrace set 4a.m. - 4p.m.' blah blah BS false advertising, and then deliver the crap they did.
To me the 'music' was okay, but 'the set' could have been much better considering who was playing, the man PVD, who when on fire takes you on a muscial journey that leaves your legs numb for days. I do think those of you that have seen PVD a lot will agree he has had much better nights; for example old Space he rocked every time, last terrace set in June 06 blew this one away, PAM DJS anniversary set in November 2005 was legendary and 10000000000 times better than this one, as was November 2006 mainroom set where the BPMs were higher than Courtney Love in a meth lab. We alos can agree PVD has had much worse nights, like Spirits in January 2006 and WMC @ Space 2006, which IMO were the 2 worst sets I have heard from him ever, out of seeing him about 30 times total. This weeks set was 100000000 times better than those 2.
So Space fucked it up by splitting the sets, plain & simple, and now LP can get a bigger yacht - mission accomplished congrats. Worse yet I think that resulted in what I feel was a rushed PVD set where he scrambled & tried to do too much in too little time in terms of 'genre jumping.' So I blame Space, period. They should offer PVD free next time, just like 93.1 of all people did on July 4th a few years ago. Then tell me LP is a bad ass and keeping the scene alive, because until then he is just another used car salesman trying to make an easy buck with a 'bait & switch' job for the ages having gone down this week
