i had such an awesome time last night. pvd brought it for once. dont get me wrong it still wasnt the best shit in the world like nov05 or actually any set from those days but he did way better last night than hes been doing lately. the first hour he was SLAMMING it out so hard. also the last 30 he was going nuts. soooo nuts. he slowed it down a bit in the middle and there were a couple tracks i kinda slept though but for the most part i knew i fuckin knew i had to go to this because pvd at a new venue? no space for the first time in well forever. i knew pvd was gonna bring it. and oh it was brought so good.
those led screens at mansion were the fuckin shit. last time i was there was june 09 for sander k so that was news to me. mansion wasnt overly packed, maybe it was the rain i dunno but that was nice. it wasnt overly hot either. thank god!!!
sound is well the sound at mansion. its not horrible but because its a big room the bass doesnt kick hard enough. but we all already know that.
beers were $8 a pop but fucking 16% gratuity already included!! so ordering 2 beers yielded $19. first time i added tip on top of that too cuz i didnt know. 19 seemed a weird number to me so i looked at the receipt and yep, 16% tip included. pretty lame. after that i stopped tipping and really only left $1. told a couple people too and no one knew. so yea, be aware for umek and carl cox.
he came on at around 1:45 and finished at like 4:58. so we got a little more than 3 hours.
i got some really nice pics just my damn resize program needs a damn serial# (grrr) so i gotta resize manually in photoshop which is a pain so those will come later. vids are already uploading but yea like i already said 10.2gbs so it wont be all done until like wednesday probably. lol. i got a fucking 13 minute video (2.3gbs) of him KILLIN at the end. my arm was so fuckin tired. lol. some of my vids are a bit shakey too but sorry i was having too good of a time.
some tracks i remember...
we are alive
nothing but you
time of our lives (last track before the encore)
markus schulz - without you near faithless - insomnia (dub)
john o callaghan feat sarah howells - find yourself (joc rework) *barf*
satisfaction (coulda done without it)
pjanoo
either home or we are one (i hate em both so i cant remember which is was) but thankfully he only played one of the two and only once. not at the beginning and then again at the end.
mgmt - kids
new york city
underworld - born slippy (durand played this last weekend too)
seventh nation army (like 30 secs right at the end)
and the previously mentioned tune of the night... PASSIVE RESISTANCE - PRAISEWORTHY TUNES
and thank god he didnt drop silence. i woulda booed like no tomorrow. no one other than tiesto should ever drop that. tiesto plays it EVERY fucking show. if you wanna hear that, go see tiesto.
theres more easy ids in my videos but yea i forget the names.

New York City (Super8 & Tab) never gets old..
those drops after the Insomnia & Born Slippy were so nasty I was like WTF WTF WTF!!
I gotta say.. around 4:20'ish I thought he was gonna start winding it down a bit but I think his last 30 minutes was the craziest he played all night! He sped those bpms up and was just dropping bombs..
Good Times!
