Are you trying to say that PvD surprised you? That would be: "PvD überraschte mich!" To be honest, I hadn't seen him live before. Although his Rosenmontags Liveset will forever be in my play list! :) On that note, I guess he surprised me too. ;) |

It took me nearly five days to post a review but I'll make it short and sweet.
-After years of waiting to see this guy I expected better. Don't get me wrong.. it was good, but not as good as I thought it would be (the set that is) He's still an amazing amazing dj to me, but I wish he played more of what he plays on his compilations etc. etc. It's always good to hear new stuff but some of the songs kindof irritated me and I found to be kindof cheesy like that song w/ the guy singing but it wasn't in english. IT was like he was chanting in another language or something. I think he played it twice. Know what I'm talking about ? - wasn't my cup of tea. I don't know.. I liked about 75 % of the trakcs he played which is pretty good.
-Thank you pvd for playing "Modulation - Spirits"
-Thank you pvd for signing my arm band (the only thing I could get on stage at the time)
-Overly crowded, but not really surprised
-It was nice to see you all :D - although I'm not sure if some of you could SEE me. :p hahah .. *cough*
-I wish I got more pics
-John I'm not a ing Gina :whip: :happy2: ASS!
Everyone seemed to have had an amazing night, but I didn't have such a great night - maybe because I was overtired.. who knows. Sometimes I feel like I'm losing touch w/ the music and I'm not as interested anymore. IT really sucks, so my reviews are pretty much depressing :(
I still love trance w/ my heart and soul, that's the only music I work on (production wise), and I still listen to it mostly all the time, but I can't take these long nights out anymore.. the standing for 6 hours, the sweat, the lack of oxygen - annoying people stepping on my feet or pushing me. I know it happens but I leave a club now wishing I never went in the first place. I don't regret going to pvd at all.. like I said I wanted to see him for a really long time, and I'm glad I finally did, and I'm glad I saw all the TA's. - things change in life, and it's like no matter how hard I try and have a good time at an event like that I feel exasperated (spelling :( ) after like 3 hours and I seem to get very very bored. My mind also tends to drift when I'm out and I start thinking about my daughter Chloë and wonder if she's ok, then I start to miss her and I just want to leave. haha.. sounds gay but true. IT never used to be like that w/ me. Ugh.. *blabbing*.. I just found that this night made me see that I'm out of the loop. If I had the time, I would party every weekend and go out and see all these dj's like most of you do - but I can't.. so when I do eventually go it feels weird to me. Anyways.. all in all it was good, and I still love pvd.

p.s. so much for short and sweet :p |

Yes, PvD is surprising.
PvD was hyped beyond belief. I had never seen him before - and had no idea what to expect...
After leaving between 6:30 and 7:00 - and thinking about the night - the event was even better than I thought (and anticipated). I've seen some big DJs in my time - but the vibe going on in KoolHaus was so unified and intense it was surprising. I didn't immagine that it would have been as awesome of a night (but I should have known...).
PvD ist erstaunlich. Keine Frage über sie... |

A neat little tool you can use for translations is the Babelfish feature on Altavista. There is a translate link which allows you to convert arbitrary sentences. Check it out. It isn't amazing, in that it doesn't always translate correctly. I use it to polish my vocabulary. For instance, I wasn't sure what Überraschen meant? I had to check that out! :P |

You didn't enjoy Wondervoll by Wolfsheim?!? :) That's cool. When I heard it, I started to bounce up and down like a bunny rabit! (No offense Joker!) Sorry to hear that you weren't into it 100%! There are times when I'm not into it either, I just usually choose to stay in on those nights. For PvD, I almost felt like that, I was at Armin the night before, hadn't gotten much sleep, spent the whole day eating turkey with my family... drinking some vino! :) That had my energy levels a little low. When that first track dropped though, so did every other thought in my mind! :) I just went with it! Amazing... |

hey Sarah, I really wished that I could hav chilled a bit more with you and Sonny last Sunday ..
you're right, things aren't the same anymore and with time come changes. TOTA used to be quite an intimate group of people, but we've certainly grown and it's becoming increasingly difficult to get to know everyone well now. You've also changed a lot too because of Chloe, but don't let that hold you back in any way. I'm sure when she grows up she'll be happy to know that she had such a grooovy mom .. :D

OK, well Nat's pictures sort of sum up the night. Can people look more trashed then in those pics?!?!?!?
I had an awesome time. From all of the times I saw PVD, this was definitely the one I was most looking forward to since so many TAs were going to be there and I actually knew them. I was looking forward to this night so much that when it came it went by so fast. I thanked the stars for having PVDs set be an extra hour!
Anyways, thank you everyone for being such an amazing group to hang with, eventho its getting so large that you can't talk to one single person for too long.
Next time PVD comes to Toronto, I will be there, even if I'm 65 years old and on a scooter device! |
