that said, we prob wouldn't still play it if we didn't make it.
tell everyone to sit down when we play it and perhaps that might make it go away :P

Well, what can I say that everyone hasnt already said
but DAMN that was a good night!
I guess for me, being the Guv-hater that I am, I was absolutley
amazed at what a different vibe there was then ANY other time Ive been there. Every one was SO cool. Usually I leave complaining about everything, but not this time!!
I wanted to see Rank 1 but was skeptical about going...thank god for
Avro who convinced me to go!
My faith has now been reinvested in both T.O Trance parties as well as the Guv.
I thought Rank 1 was AMAZINg!!!! totally my type of trance. During their set everyone was going crazy and the room had amazing energy.
...yes it was LOUD!! I have some earplug that I got from Germany and they are sooo good that i had NO ringning when i got home...thank god, cause I hate when that happens.
It was cool to run into a bunch of old party friends that I havnt seen in years.
So all in all i have to say that this night was a 10/10
It meets all my criteria of a perfect party
:cool: :) :cool: |

same here. i noticed when rank 1 was playing though, the sound was way louder than it was supposed to be. me standing at the doorway between KH and the orange room, i almost went deaf. definitly think G&D and IM were the highlights. i would have to say Rank 1 was great too but by that time i was drained after going insane for 3.5 hours, especially when dk8-murder was the bass came on with 'on a high' acapella. i remember leaving when mike robbins-are you a freak was on. that was like 5.30 |

Ok, so my review is a few days late, but i needed the time to recuperate after a really good night at the Guvvie.
Got there with a few friends at around 11:15, and waited for around 20 mins to get in. Thankfully it wasn't too cold, so after paying we made our way into the KH. G & D were spinning, and although i was only around to catch 30 mins of their set, it was nonetheless a pleasent suprise. In all honestly, trance is now probably my third favorite after breaks and house, but these guys have a decent sound and they had the crowd going quite well. After making our way through the orange room which was blasting some hip hop, i caught the beginning of Anne Savage who i honestly had high expectations from. Unfortunately, i didn't really get into her set, and the guy with the whistle going 24-7 really started to bug me. So...Charlies was the next destination, and boy was it a good one. Breaks was the dish on the menu, and the crowd was hyped. Five minutes into the room and there was already a square off of some of the best dancers i have seen in the Guvvie. The thing that set Charlies apart from the other rooms was that it had it's own coat check, plenty of room, and a ing air con system that actually worked. Oh, and did i forget to mention, some breaks DJ's who knew how to throw it down !
After a few hours in the breaks room, i was able to do the rounds again. So after checking out the acid lounge which was another great place to chill for a few minutes i made it back onto the Guv floor where Anne Savage was holding court. Yeah, the crowd seemed to enjoy her set, but i can't say i was feeling the hard house sound. Must give the guverment crew big ups for managing the flow of people as well. There was a time during Labor of Love when it seemed that just getting from one place to the other would take half an hour. But for whatever reason, for the past few events even though the number still appear to be at dangerous levels, the flow from the multiple rooms is significantly better.
Finally ended up at KH to hear Rank 1 drop their set. Tbe crowd had thinned somewhat from G&D, but there was still quite a few hands in the air as anthems were churned out by the guys from Holland. Once again, it wouldn't be fair for me to comment on the quality, because i haven't really be impressed with the state of trance for the last few years, but it was the kind of stuff that Rank 1 fans expected them to play. Euphoric, hands in the air as lush synths and pads floated overhead...It was good, it had a classic feel about it, it was Ultra Spin 4 !
Thanks for John T for getting me onto the Guestlist ( Didn't get a chance to use it cause one of my friends had a bigger group down...thanks nonetheless)
Shouts to Nat...the only TA i managed to spot. ( Damn you TOTA's...where do you guys lurk anyway ? ;)
BTW. I was looking forward to Deko-Ze and Jelo, but didn't see them spinning...did i miss something ? Wasn't it supposed to be in the KH ?
Breeeeeakzzz....the sound of 2004 !

Me= owned. :p
Dave- Please don't take offence to that comment- it's just one of those songs that just got so played out, even if it's a good song. I am even guilty of singing and dancing along to it that night, but the initial reaction with me is still "oh no, not this song again....!" Aside from that one, I loved every song u guys played. :D
I think my 1st distaste with this song was when Marco V was here in the fall, and he dropped it during his set, just cuz it's a crowd pleaser, though not his style at all.
I think Alec from Ottawa has a different remix on his ASOT mix that's good (cuz it's barely been played by anyone). That one I enjoy at least.
I'll just have to send out a petition to all DJ's to start playing alternative remixes of that song. Who's with me?? :p |

Kytracid- ALWAYS look up front for the TA's, or look for my spelling toy. You won't find any TA's hiding behind the rear speaker without a view, like u were.
Magnetonium- sorry about not getting any pics of you that nite- my battery died during Rank 1, and I saw u after the fact. If u ever want to meet more TA's, just remind me the next party. You know I'm the TA ambassador, right? |
