Sorry about my delayed response but I wanted to finalise a couple of details before responding.
What a night. By gosh the Sydney uplifting trance scene is alive and kicking. A Night Of Trance completely packed out ARQ with huge numbers coming through the door. Around 100 more people came through the door than at the July event. In fact the numbers were so high that for the next event we will be selling tickets.... more on this later :)
It's quite weird as I was really worried that we couldn't top the July 2nd event, but by gosh we didn't just topple it. It was buried!
I thought the lineup worked fantastically. All the sets flowed very well into each other and all the vs DJ's worked seamlessly together. Diggs n Morro had the floor absolutely pumping by 11:30pm! Myself and Marishka worked everyone up into a frenzy. Scott Richardson and Cameron O'Shea played a top quality 100% professional set and Rob and Stama what can I say. You guys kept the crowd till 6am which is a really hard task to do especially for a Friday night event.
Their was so many people left in the club at 6am that I ended up playing a special morning anthems set downstairs till 7am.
I am also extremely happy that Scott at the last minute, convinced me to hire extra lasers for the event. I think it really filled the space much better than the standard ARQ laser setup.
I must congratulate and thank all the people who made the event possible: Scott, Karren, Gabriel, Nikki, Amanda, Johnny, Doni, Michelle, James and of course all the DJs (Scott, Cam, Stama, Rob, Diggs, Morro, Muli, Adam, Scott Baker, Eddie).
Finally Doully that T-Shirt was amazing definitely free entry for you to the next event.
Well what next????
On September 24th 2004 Sydney's biggest uplifting trance night will be joining forces with Melbourne's biggest uplifting trance night. Prepare yourself for:
A Night Of Trance with 5am!!!
Featuring:
Steve Strangis (5am)
Albert Mangler (5am)
Scott Richardson (A Night Of Trance)
Diggs n Morro (A Night Of Trance)
Joshua van Aalst (A Night Of Trance)
Please note that more 5am and A Night Of Trance DJ's will be announced in the coming weeks. In fact we are flying most of the 5am crew up for the event!
The lineup for this event will probably so huge that we will have to spread out across both floors.
As mentioned above full details for this event will be announced in the coming weeks.
Finally thanks to everybody who has come to the events and made A Night Of Trance so special. It is you all that makes the event what it is!
Josh
P.S. The large T-Shirts will be available in Central Station Records and One Stop Dee Jay next week. Smaller and tighter sizes are coming. Their arrival will be announced via the mailing list. |

Pretty impressive night. Was glad i went. Lasers were full on! Loved 'em, you should have had more! Upstairs very good, downstairs amazing. Didn't really get the whole lemming facing the stage thing when i walked in..hehe..but it was funny...looked like everyone was hypnotised..(in a trance?). But as the night went on so did the dancing and the great music. I do wish more good vocal trance was played, (addicted 2 it, + I don't think Josh's set was 'cheesy'.. though i guess people have their own definitions of what is cheese and what isn't etc), but i guess you can't please every1 :happy2: .
One thing which you should do Josh, is get the music being played upstairs to pump into the mens/ladies downstairs (that's what usually happens at ARQ, and i was suprised to hear it wasn't on the night), i know that sounds a bit dumb...but it's just good if you're downstairs you can listen to what playin upstairs when you're in there trying to fill up your water bottle with ARQ's fukt up taps.
But yeh thanks for a great night, I think we're all pretty lucky to have events like this in Sydney.
:happy2: :happy2: :happy2: |

I had a great "leemur" moment. At one stage I was in the middle of the crowd, completely smashed... Popped my head up above everyone and slowly looked around the whole room.... there was frickin lasers coming from every angle, all around!
damn, those lasers! awesome lighting! and a great night :) |

| haha sorry guys that came across the wrong way. I am no way against gays haha, in fact probably one of the most , i dont really care if your gay or not person. I just dont appreciate it when they TRY so hard to make it obvious, i mean it is a mainly straight event they could at least try and act a little more decent ? |

*sigh* i don't really want to clog up Josh's thread with this crap but 'gays' (aka people, aka human beings) don't have to 'act' in any other way other than how they want to, and the same goes for everyone else on the planet.
Fair enough people have issues with other people and how they pereive them, but you are so grossly over generalising it's..well...mean.
Anyway.. not gunna preach...up to you or to whoever agrees with you to figure out how hurtful comments like that can be.
