My god was his set awesome!!! Right at about 3 1/2 hours!! He signed autographs and shook peoples hands right toward the end of his set...
Just amazing... I was very upset with all of the people standing around... again, if you aren't going to dance move to the back of the room please!!
But overall VERY satisfied!!!

WOW!!!

AMAYZING
OUTSTANDING
INCREDIABLE
WONDERFUL
MARVELIOUS
EXCELLENT

words can not express how good that set was. it honestly could have eaily been recorded, published on CD, Labeled and then sell a million copies.

i went down with a friend and Neo-Geo from TA who came from Baton Rouge, Louisiana. i let him stay the weekend at my place. the club itself is located at a very run-down part of houston and on could easily be missed or mistakened for an abandoned building. the inside was the exact opposite. it looked very 80'ish style club but with super modern lights & lazers. i got to meet excite there agian for the second time and we actually sat down and talked for a while before PvD was on. he's a really cool guy and an interesting mix... half south african, half mexican. we'll meet up in the future agian for sure. PvD was on at around 1:30 and spun for something like 3 1/2 hours. the crowd irrupted so many times its not even funny. i didnt stop moving/dancing for the entire set even though it was really placked but that didnt stop me from jumping around, what a natural high, so amayzing, my face hurt from smiling so much. the music he chose was awsome, pure trace, and by far the best mixing job i've ever heard. so fluid. some songs i noticed were:
4 Strings - Into the night
orinoko - island (moogwai mix)
Marco V - Simulated
Iio - Rapture (PvD remake)
Ralphie B - Massive
David Forbes - Questions must be asked (magica mix)
PvD - vega (starcase remix)
PvD - anthother way (maybe the climax of the night)
PvD - tell me why
PvD - we are alive (DJ icey remix)
PvD - for an angel (sheer bliss)
along with many more progressive and hard hitting PvD style trance i can only spot the epic/uplifting ones. Excite couldnt easly name more seeing as he's a great trainspotter. i would have loved to hear signum - in progress and empire - second sun, but he didnt play those. we also could bring in a camera so i will have no personal pics, maybe ill find some on the net. shame too, cause i looked really spiffy that night, i had khaki cargo pants and a dark blue tight sleeve-less shirt, i got hit on by two older chicks (23 & 26)! first time that has ever happened to me before. It was by far the best set i have ever seen in my life, and i will defintily not forget that night!

It was everything Izzy said times 3. Going into the night I wasn't the biggest PVD fan, but after that amazing set I got to give the man his PROPS!!! That night is a close second to Tiesto at Element, a VERY close second.

peace kev

ya guys i was a great event
im sorry i didnt meet any of ya'll.
bigkev, excite told me he'd introduce me to you but we never found you and i lost excite when PvD was on... once he was on i didnt move from my spot, dancing the night away.

Izzy,

We did manage to get in a camera, but I'm not sure what pics my friend took. I'll PM you and let you know if they turned out. I looked for Excite from 12-1, then I gave up. We were by the bar in the back of the DJ room, then we moved to a back room to chill out. I had a blast too bad we didn't meet, I'm sure I'll see you around. Maybe we can meet up for Destiny...AVB 3 hour set!!!

peace kev

Wow, sounds exciting
Do you think he'll be able to re-create this energy in November, in Washington DC?
I only hope he doesn't spin too much progressive, as it bores me to tears in March I went to see Tiesto and was severely disappointed, because he only played progressive to my surprise.

ya from around 12 - 1 i was with excite the whole time talking about trance at that chill room with the couches behind the bar listening to the resident DJ (who was pretty good).
i would love to meet up with you at destiny. im planning on going to that on Nov 3. we'll see who here at CS is willing to take the ride up with me. i hear AvB is on fire now so we should be in for a real treat!

Actually I would like some of those pics as well if you don't mind... they made us go back to our car to get rid of our camera...
thanks!
