Always a good show. There with bells on.

I'm so in for this. It's been almost two years since I've seen him.

Does anyone have an idea of set times for this event?

12-3 am I assume. Usually the headliners spin during those hours at Tantra.

I'll be next door at David Guetta.

Review:

Armin spun a mediocre set. It sounded like another episode of A State of Trance. His set consisted almost entirely of monotonous filler tracks with a few quality trancers and a dash of cheddar. Armin is dropping the quality bar in the programming department, and if he keeps this up he’ll likely follow the same path as the other number-one ranked DJs before him.

I did not enjoy this at all. I thought Blake played an amazing set. GG to the crowd for chanting Armin for the last hour of Blake's set (he played for about 75 minutes). I even heard some Tiesto chants. Come on guys, really....

We left after 90 minutes of Armin's set. I found it to that point to be uninspired and boring. Armin still can't mix to save his life, what the hell was that he tried to pull out of 'White Sand'? I agree with the previous poster that his programming leaves lots to be desired. He might be the most popular dj in the world but he's far from #1. PVD is by far and away the best on the planet.

Tantra is a horrible venue to have such a large dj. The dancefloor is tiny and it's impossible to get a good vantage point without a speaker or a pillar in your way. We gave up our stools at the railing on the balcony so people could kneel on them to see what was going on. They have video screens everywhere in there, why not set up a camera and stream some video?

Here are a couple vids I took last night.




Linkin Park - Shadow of the Day (Blake Jarrell Remix)



Shadow of the Day singalong



4 Strings - Take Me Away (Re-Ward remix)

Hopefully Armin will be better here as it's a Saturday night show and, well, Edmonton is just better But in all honesty, all I wanna hear is Shadow of the Day... i don't care which DJ plays it.
