For sure. I remember the first time I went, and everyone just kept telling me, "wait for Deko-ze." He could work that room like no other. Seeing him going apeshit in the booth while everyone around the DJ booth was also going apeshit, bouncing in sync with him was what made The Zone great.
As for The Zone being Disneyland these days, I would have to agree. Even though I heard its craziest times were around 2000-2002 (when G first started gaining popularity, and people were just dropping like flies), when I started going in 2004 (wow, almost 4 years ago already?!) it was still a lot crazier than it is today. My perception of its crazyness probably had something to do with it, because I had just started going, but I remember that 9/10 times that I went to The Zone, it felt like the place was being held up by a fraying thread. The whole front of the DJ booth would just be losing it from 6-10am, almost every time I went. Nowadays, I still get that feeling every once in a while, but it's pretty rare (ie usually on long weekends). |
im with you on that on Graham. I rememeber it would be a madd house, raining sweat. the place going OFFF at 9 on a warm sunday morning u could feel the bass through the sidewalks as u were waiting in line, trying not to look tired, shielding your eyes with ta hat and sungalsses... i reemmber the line ups being tense, everyone shuffling aroudn outside trying to hide their anticipation, aruging with Alex at the door over trying to get a group to skip the line, then going down the steps. past coat check, u get blasted by the heat and the music..drawn in, and it engulfs you.....
