Marathon Sets
Inspired by last week's Danny Howells party...
What DJs have you seen play marathon sets?
Danny Tenaglia (15 hours)
Danny Howells (7 hours)
Richie Hawtin (7 hours)
Luciano v. Ricardo Villalobos (8 hours)
Ricardo Villalobos v. Richie Hawtin (9 hours)
Chus & Ceballos (8 hours)
Deep Dish (7 hours)
What DJs play marathon sets would you like to see that you haven't seen yet?
Laurent Garnier
Carl Craig
Villalobos by himself
Let's try to keep this thread specific to DJs that are actually known to play marathon sets, not which DJs that you'd like to see play marathon sets that don't play them.
Also, a marathon set IMO is 6+ hours.

Sasha and f#$%ing Digweed for 8+ hours please. I would also love to hear Sven play for 8+ hours.
I've seen Dish spin for 7-8+ hours on a few occasions.
Dubfire for 8-9 hours at Stereo.
Danny Howells at Footwork.
C&C at Sonic.
That's all I can think of off the top of my head right now....

Most of the ones you listed.
I have also seen
Vibe @ Stereo
Sander @ Stereo (which was amazing...can't believe I just typed that)
I always thought Stereo was great for that cause they would just let the headliner go until they wanted to stop.
There isn't too many people I would want to see an extended set from that I haven't.
1.Villalobos - but it would have to be at the right venue / crowd. I don't want to see him at an extended set at Timewarp. Outside, beach/pool, starting in the late afternoon going until the it gets really dark. I think that would be one hell of a ride he would take up on.
2.Papa Sven - I have heard so much good stuff about his extended Aria set that I would travel far to see him if he was doing an extended set.
3.Laurent Garnier (simply because of the hype for his 8 hour sets at Timewarp)

Such as when he played on a beach in Ibiza in front of 3000 people for 10 hours after the Cocoon Closing in 2004?!
SOOO jealous of all that were there.
Too bad this kind of stuff doesn't happen anymore due to the Ibizan authorities. (N)

Villalobos in Chile
Or how about on the Weekend terrace in Berlin?
He played something like a 16 hour set that day. Lol @ the crowd going off at the one minute mark even though it's sunset.
Double lol @ the TV with the soccer game going on behind the DJ booth.

Demi at Boa was something like 8 hours wasn't it? I'd call that a marathon.

Checked this place out when i was in Berlin in the summer, Richie Hawtin absolutely destroyed it. If anyone is in Berlin ever i suggest hitting WeekEnd up, its in a random appt building and you take an elevator up to the 11th floor and then when the door opens its pandemonium!

Hmm. All I can think of is Sven 7 hr set @ Aria (2003) and at least 5 Misstress Barbara sets that were over 6 hours. (The 9 hr one was the longest I believe....and it was all bangin back then.)
Caught parts of DT but I don't think I've ever stuck it out for more than a few hrs of one set. Basically I don't think I've done a marathon set that wasn't during normal waking hours (ie piknic) in over 5 years.
This sums up the insanity of the Sven night - one of my top 5 parties of all time. Holy fuck was it ever good. Graham...you would have loved it. I think this was around 11am, and I just noticed that sounds like me screaming like 4 times in the video.

Wowowow. That's one party I really wish I went to.
:O at the tune at 2:30. I can't even imagine hearing that at 11:00am. Look at all the people that were still there too!
