A great night out!
Just what the doctor ordered. Went in thru KH- stayed there till about 3am. It was a night full of pleasant surprises- just when I thought i had seen everyone i knew, there would be yet another partier i had not seen in a while. It was great to see all the fimiliar faces. But you see... something was missing- that was my ability to be one with the beat- to my brain on autopilot and just dance like crazee. Howells was ok and at times very good- but i was missing the consistency in making me want dance hard. Then I tried to find the same in Pete Tong- but alas. While both are great DJs and it was good to hear them spin - I needed to dance and dance hard. My quest for the beat led me to venture into Guv. by myself, ditching the security net that my friends offered in KH. Of course, no night at Guvernment complex is complete until you venture through the Orange Room. Yikes!! So i get into Guv. and after a bit of crowd management- i finally settled down to get my workout at Guv. Scumfrog was just what i needed. The basslines were------- absolutely downright dirty. Fawk!!!! I havent danced that hard in sooooo long. I get goosebumps just thinking about it. Lets just say it took all of 15minutes for my missing smile to return. Then I see FloorWhore & Tyson- together we tore up the dance floor. Eventually Tordan joins us- by this time I couldnt hug anyone cos i was sweating buckets and my top just clung to me. It just got progressively dark and funky and at last! Ah i was one with the beat. I danced with a number of people i didnt know and the energy was quite positive- we were all one happy family all in a trance, dancing feverishly. Bravo Scumfrog!! a job well done indeed- i stayed right till the end when he made a very smooth exit indeed!
And all the party children went home happy!!! |

Well, I finally got to see the Frog.
It was a great party! I spent most of the night dancing with Nathalie on the stage until she ran off to the booth for the rest of the night. Scumfrog was laying out some really dirty beats, and had some interesting quirks to his set like voice overs and digital drums. It's original things like this that make a deejay really enjoyable to see.
I saw a few TAs which I hadn't seen in a while, so it was a great night in that sense too.
Definately the highlight of the night was seeing Erika out again. We missed you!
Another great weekend.
See you all next week! |

Getting to hear Pete Tong MC = definitely the highlight of the night.
I went in with low expectations but I actually had a lot of fun for the time that I stayed (mostly in the Kool Haus, Guv was porno-packed with the usual suspects so I didn't stay for long). Mind you the main room wasn't anywhere near as ridiculous as it was at Sasha so I give the management some credit for that, but I still found the pre-Frog vibe pretty uncomfortable, so I stayed away. I didn't find the Koolhaus "empty" at all, it just wasn't anywhere near as rammed as the main room. 10-20% more people might still have been comfortable but that size is pretty much perfect if you ask me.
And besides, regardless of the head count, the vibe was crazy in there (at least during Howells it was). I actually saw 50 people or so all form a circle and people were break dancing (or just dancing) - which I thought was a in' awesome change of pace from the usual "guys bobbing their heads doing not much of anything except occasionally stopping to hit on a chick". Some people wrinkled their noses when I told them about the circle - but who cares if it reminds you of a mainstream club, I rarely see that kind of hype and togetherness at an afterhours club and it totally had everyone going. The "jumbotron" was pretty cool too, apparently I was on it at one point but I never noticed - must have been a good laugh for the crowd knowing how spastic I am on the dance floor. :nervous: For those who did not bother to visit the Koolhaus from around 1 to 3 am, you really missed out on a lot (by which I am not referring to the preceding sentence).
I got to see the Scumfrog doing some cool stuff afterwards, like someone mentioned the digital drums and voice overs - the beats he was dropping weren't really what I was expecting to hear from him, not my cup of tea, but I'm happy to hear that everyone who spent that part of the night in the Guv had an awesome time.
Edit: oh yeah, I almost forgot, sound in the KH was PERFECT!!
Now, it's time for my break... |

Had a great time last night. I really liked the setup in KH and the sound levels were just right. Howells & Tong had me moving in KH the entire time. Plenty of room to dance, I was lovin it. The thirst finalist came on after Pete Tong and he laid down a good hard-trance set. I was quite pleased with his set.
Moved over to the guv main room after that and joined the TAs up on the stage. Scumfrog was playing an awesome set. He had everyone dancing their butts off including myself. Loved his energy and crowd interaction, and those electronic drums. :crazy: Stayed until the very end. Very enjoyable night indeed. Nice seeing all the regulars out.

Well, it's been over 3 months since I've been to Guvvie and it was good to be back on the dance floor again!!! Tunes were always rockin' throughout the night, in both rooms, although there was much more room to dance in Kool Haus, as per usual. Once again, Scumfrog was awesome, as was Danny Howells... Hmm, tasty...
I'll keep this short n' sweet, as I am still lacking in sleep, but the main thing I want to say is that it was awesome to see everyone again - it's nice to go off and have many adventures but getting hugs all night from a fantastic group of people that you know and love... that's EXACTLY what I needed and it meant the world to me so thanks to all of you who made my night wonderful! Charmscars, Ezekiel, Chinaman, Highroller, Floorwhore, Time2burn, Brian (can't remember your TA name!), Avikonen, Stereoprincess, Gamma - thanks for your company on the stage in the latter part of the night - SO much fun! And it was good to see a whole other wack of TAs too throughout the night and I won't try and mention you all for fear of forgetting anyone!
It's good to be home and you were all sorely missed... |
