I took my jacket and camera back to the car because I thought that they were not going to allow cameras in there. I got back and they didnt even check, so I tried to go back for my camera and one of the security guys said that If I went outside I was not coming back in. :whip: I was pissed to say the least. |

Yeah they were asses abotu re-entry. They were apparently being asses to the Spundae guy with the flyers out front too. And they were promoting an event sponsored by the HOB.

I had an awesome time. I would've stayed down on the floor with you guys that were down there, but my right ear was seriously starting to hurt. So about an hour or so before PvD stopped, I followed Nick up when he left the floor and went and found Anthony since I'd left him back by the stairs.
There was some girl dancing back there that was ing awesome. And there were some that were terrible. Especially the fat dudes that were tryin' to bust a move.
Glad I got to meet ya all. I'm sure I'll make it back up to Chicago again for another show in the near future. :) |

wow, i had a great time. definately what i needed to finally put me in a better mood. his set was great; his mixing amazing as always, although there weren't enough breaks:tongue2 . the atmosphere was great, but there were too many pretentious pricks in the crowd for my liking.
also, i just want to say that the highlight of the night was when he took of one of the final scratch vinyls and put on another way. wow; definately put a smile on my face. |

Partial tracklist compiled from a few threads (I tried to put in somewhat order):
Digital Pressure - Aftershock (Paul van Dyk Re-Edit)
Nu-NRG – Connective
Paul van Dyk vs Second Sun - Crush
Agnelli & Nelson pres. Ultra - Holding On To Nothing
Wolfsheim – Wundervoll (Blank & Jones remix)
PVD – Connected
Modulation - Spirits (Cosmicman Remix)
Carlo Resort vs. 4 Strings – Unknown (I have the 1 sided vinyl from early this year but it doesn’t have a name on it…not sure if it has a name now or if its on the new 4 strings album)
PVD Feat. Vega 4 - Time Of Our Lives (PVD Club Mix)
PVD - Nothing But You
PVD – Another Way
New Order – Confusion (Remix ?)
Three Drives – Carrera 2 (Nu-NRG remix)
PVD Feat. Vega 4 - Time Of Our Lives (Time to Chill Mix)
Encore: Paul van Dyk vs Second Sun – Crush (remix?)
Tracklist Help Please!
PVD was f’in ridiculous. He came out banging and didn’t stop for 2.5 hours. I could NOT stop dancing. It was way too packed but on the floor in the front it really wasn’t that bad. Everyone I talked to (mostly PVD fanatics) were amazed as well and were all saying it was the best they’ve heard. I think it was better than last summer’s Riviera set…which until now was the best set I’ve ever seen from any DJ. It was a bit harder and more driving than this other sets I’ve heard…yet still very PVD-ish. It was cool to hear him play about 20 minutes of techno. I wish I knew some more of the track names. The energy in the place was amazing…makes me wonder why Chicago is considered so “anti-trance”. The best parties of the last year have beenPVD, Tiesto, Armin…all trance.
There was some track he played exactly at 3:30am that I think was the best track of the night. I really want to get the name - all I know is it had a very “heavenly” synth sound. It was 2 tracks before one that kept saying “energize your soul”. Maybe someone can ID based on my great description ;)
I thought Johnny did a great job closing. Considering he doesn’t spin trance…he had to go out and buy some trance tracks since he had to follow PVD (I can’t even imagine the pressure involved with doing this). I’m sure its pretty hard to tell just how loud it is on the floor when you are on the HOB stage…isn’t that what the sound guys in the back are for anyway? I know he played these (I think they were his last 2) -
Rafferty & Kershaw – We are Connected
Cern – Baileys (GTR)
All in all an amazing night. Can’t get enough PVD. |

Nice its great to see part of the tracklist:)
Another memorable track for me of the night was when he played The Lost Brothers-Cry Little Sister(club mix?)pretty early into his set. My friends and I went nuts. I remember hearing judge jules spin it in some of his sets and haven't heard it anywhere else until saturday night. |
