I almost got into a fight with a chinese fem (not like I wanted to), but she grabbed me by my shoulder HARD, and starts shoving me towards this chinese guy friend of hers smushing our faces together.. I back off and go "What the hell are you doing"!?.. then just left it be, and turned my back.. continued to do my thing... then she does it AGAIN!!!!!!!!........ I couldn't believe the nerve!!!!! I knew she was on something... but STILL... I fucken pushed her and said "WHAT THE FUCK!!!!!!!... Fuck off!".. and she kinda got the hint!
That was one downfall.. nobody's fault but hers..


yea Endlesswave was tellin me about this happening .. really sucks to hear it. and no offense taken i gotta agree that a lotta the pplz there that nite were somewhat annoying. altho i suppose luckily for me i didn't happen to bump into any of them .. maybe cept for seeing that E'd out 65 year old woman ewwwww.. i coulda sworn this lady was old enuff to be my grandmother!! it was totally disgusting and i saw some older dude pop a tablet in her mouth as well .. just insane. Anyways so yea itz too bad you had to run into that kinda thing Wax.. you did seem pretty stationary on the most part. maybe next time we should move up closer to the DJ booth cuz it did seem like most of the E'd out peeps were closer to the walls gettin their "lightshows"..

ah wells.. anyways i totally know what u mean about the draining club parties. the other nite at Viva was my first major party in a very long time. they are totally way too tiring now.. i find myself mostly hitting up chiller events like lounges, houseparties and what not.. i think it also comes with the age as well. i coulda sworn i had way more energy for this kinda thing back when i was 18/19.. my how things change..

I thought that Johan Gielen's set was amazing !
This was the first time i actually got to go to a party of this kind, the music and everything was too good, the system, the lights, everything was beautiful. I've wanted to go to a trance party for years now, but because of my age i can't, good thing it was all ages. Too bad i didnt get to meet any TA's, but i didnt know there was going to be a place to meet up. Hopefully next time i will get to meet some of you out there. I will, for sure, go see marco v, just because i had such a good time at Viva. It was truly amazing!

I should have given you my sunglasses those lasers can definitely be a problem for the eyes at times

No offense taken. I usually find myself saying the same thing too.. I find that there are some Chinese (mainly FOB) that have major attitude disorders and could really care less for anyone other than themselves... I heard this story from EndlessWave and all I can say is that it really sucks to see this happen that girl will eventually pay her dues in life for getting fucked up and being such an ass

Im sure a lot of you noticed me just standing there over 1/2 the time, well it was because of a few reasons.. I have a bad back, I was tired, and people were just pissing me off. I would have spurts of energy where I would dance.. but I love my space.. so most of the time I will just stand and admire. Besides that.. I had a pretty good time.


I hope I wasn't one of those ppl that pissed you off, lol.. I remember I accidentally stepped on your toes at one time I was a little irritated with the people in front of me as well, because they persistently crept further and further back, knowing that I was right there behind them. Anyway, I'm just happy to see that overall you had a good time

I didn't mind saturday, I think he's a good dj, but I thought the venue was sortof a hole. The light show was more or less killing my eyes instead of making me dance, but luckily I got used to the blinding sensations of the lazers darting into my retinas.

I liked the bubbles coming out during the uplifting parts of two songs (can't remember).. I thought that was beautiful.
I liked seeing all the TA's like usual.. and yes AZ is a TA Beacon!! We (me and stylez) would always just look for AZ if we lost everyone. lol ... I'm seeing that a lot of newer TA's were there, that I didn't see. Nice to hear that you are representing though.

And to top it all off, I got to meet the man himself. He seems like a gentleman and respectable dj as he signed the picture of him and kissed my hand. There was a mutual respect between a dj and a fan.

I somehow doubt I will be at Marco V, only because I haven't heard the best of the best about this guy, and I noticed that I am getting tired earlier when I go to these things because of my new job... and maybe because the whole club scene is tiring me and wearing me out.

Oh i understand i was tired too waxen. i had done a 2-11 shift and i came back to sauga from northyork and then came to markham with biz i was shit tired when we reached 8 am., yes even i do get annoyed after a long day of work , but ihave learnt to take it in stride and enjoy myself.

Well if you get tired next time i think i should bring one of those beach chairs.

oh yeah the other thing fucking people kept walking in between when i was dancing. that also pissed me off. but once again i loved the music when i was high.

You guys should invite me to go more often clubbing otherwise i wouldnt know since i am at work. i could bring more friends.

No, i don't mean the Sensation theme. The 21st of september there will be another Trance Energy. The theme song from this event has been played very often in Gielen's latest sets. Unfortunatly i don't know the title of this track.

What you said of Sensation is also wrong. There's one track called
Sensation - The anthem 2002. For the white edition there was a remix by Armin van Buuren and Johan Gielen. For the Black edition there was a remix by Dana. In that part you hear a voice say Black out. So i think you mean Sensation - The anthem 2002 (Dana remix)

The party overall was sensational, but i have to admit that the majority of asians there also pissed the heck out of me. I just can't believe how ignorant some of these people are. Due to that fact I doubt that i'll be hittin Marco V. I don't wanna come off sounding like an asshole, but a percentage of these people are just scary.

peace

there's gonna be a lot of jerks at any club you go to, so i don't think its fair to make note of their race... i mean, its markham its ALL asians so it makes sense that most of the punks will be asian. you might run into the same kind of people at guvernment, and chances are they'll be white. would it be fair to say that the white people at guv pissed me off? no... jerks come from all races and backgrounds, =P.

WOW! What an amazing night that was, definitively one to remember for a long time to come. First of all, I'm glad that I ran into so many TAs (Swamper, Nrg2Nfinit, DJ Stylez, time2brn, hardcore trancer, hansolo, DJ El Kay Dee, Waxen) and all you others I missed, you know who you are. You guys helped to make this event really intimate and memorable. Its great to be in a club and have awesome ppl around you everywhere you look.

As for Gielen, he was just phenomenal as well as enchanting. He played a perfect mix of classic favs along with banging new tracks. Highlight of the night would be a tie between the time he dropped Vengaboys - Kiss (airscape mix), and Gouryella - Ligaya. That was absolutely off the charts!!! The basic fact is that I couldn't get enough of Gielen that night, and can't wait for his return.

Homefully, I will see most of you TAs at "Labour of Love".
Till next time...

Peace
