I would have and bought a few drinks, but I was on antibiotics and couldn't. Hopefully that happens again at the next show and I can buy a round from my "Vision salary."
I'm still laughing about the girl who ended the set, especially because she was so angry and she kept flashing her pen at security when they went to kick her out. I wonder if she was trying to show them she wanted to get an autograph or if she was going to stab them with it. I think Sander's "really really ridiculously good-looking" girlfriend had tried to tell the girl that got knocked over to get off the stage a dozen times this morning.
Mr. Squirrel sorry you missed Sander, hope you feel better. |

They were using the new DVJ system, I think with the visuals coordinated with the music. That was interesting, kind of like a big 'sing-along' thing going on. |
That system was simply amazing! I got a great view to watch both Sander & the blonde guy (while I was guarding the "VIP area" ;) ) and I think the way it worked was the guy was mixing what Sander had on the DVJ that was running and what was on his laptop (e.g. the names of the cities and "you are everybody too" or the airplane). So essentially you could have two visuals coming from the DVJs if they're in transition and another visual from the laptop. I really wanted to ask him about it, but they started kicking people out and Sander was on his phone, because conveniently 5 am Chicago time works out to the afternoon in the Hague. I hope that concept really catches on with more DJs. My favorite visual was the James Brown mugshot during The Fruit. |

awesome night!!!
mazi's set was ing killer. he was tearing the crowd up. sander's set was also killer, had me dancing the whole time (until i had to take breaks 'cause my feet were hurting)... definitely enjoyed hearing the remixes of Smack My Bitch Up, Owner of a Lonely Heart (lol), Blur's Song #2, etc... and some songs from Everybody Too. he played "The Fruit" as his first encore which was awesome. god there were so many good songs i wish i could remember them all.
oh, and that psychochick that was attacking the security people (she smacked the guy who was wearing the cap, right on the top of his head, i think tom said it was hipolito?) and falling onto the stage at the end, i said to tom, "what drugs do you think they're on, i mean, what drugs AREN'T they on." i can't stand that . she was obviously ed out of her mind, but has no right to ruin it for the rest of us. i think security should've kicked her out way sooner.
the DVD screens were cool, but when they have the setup on that stage it always confuses the hell out of me. i feel backwards all night, since i'm so used to looking towards the DJ booth. but we all staked out a spot and it was pretty cool 'cause the place wasn't too packed. we all had room to dance and chill.
so much fun hangin with the TAs - kristin, JM, marv, tom, neil, D&Ggirl, seneca... you guys rock!!
but where was our phantom mod, bobby? :p |

Sander set was in fantastic (a mixture of brand new tracks and tracks from his cd). His mixing was close to perfect and the set flowed brilliantly . Mazi was surprisingly good this time around. I think this was the first time I danced to a Mazi set for his full time on. The visuals using the DVJs were very cool; it definitely spiced up the night. One of my friends that never heard of Sander and really isn’t into dance music really enjoyed herself last night.
I'm glad I spent the money to see him.
Highlights of the night:
Meeting Sander and getting him to autograph my copy of This is Everybody Too.
Witnessing that crazy bitch fall on the stage :stongue: That I will never forget. :happy2:
Sander dropping The Fruit :eyespop: |

will get more clips and pix up tomorrow (hopefully)
i don't know...something was missing for me. or maybe i just had a really long day. i gotta agree mazi did tear it up. i think for sander's set, i went through a roller coaster. one minute i would really dig it, the next minute i would be bored. the visuals kept me entertained though. first time actually paying that much attention to them since sound-bar and space had the screens on the opposite side of sander. i agree that i hope more djs utilize the technology. some tracks even included karaoke :haha: with the exception of "i-have-a-pen-and-im-not-afraid-to-use-it" girl, i think everyone had a great time. lots of room to move around on the second floor. as for me, i think the absence of a disco nap really got the best of me. |

As stated in another sander thread:
It's the fruit... that makes it fruity.
It's the juice... that makes it juicy.
It's the funk... that makes it funky.
It's the junk... that makes the junky.
:eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :eyes:
its too bad about the chick - i think more people wanted to try and meet sander, but she ruined it for the rest of us. i got to briefly meet sander earlier in the evening and he seemed like a nice guy - but its always hard to hear in the club. |

I am convinced that there is a force in the universe that is solely dedicated to preventing me from attending events in every conceivable way.
I had arranged a ride down and back to Chicago only to have said friend bail on me at the last minute because 'it was more important to spend the night with his girlfriend, and he was really sorry.' By that time it was too late to get a hold of anyone else to get transport down there. I almost debated driving down by myself at 10:30 to stay from 1 - close but wasn't sure if I'd end up being stuck in line or what so I just stayed.
I'm really pissed. I'm glad to see you all had a good time though. |

yes - that was ipo - the poor guy having to deal with the chick
and i was also totally confused when i first walked into the club - i'm by the dj booth going "where the hell is everyone?" - and then realizing that everyone was at the other end of the floor. for a second i thought they were playing a cd or something or that mazi couldn't make the show - but then i saw him on the stage. |

i did the same thing. was standing there drinking my beer thinking " i'm the only TA here? wtf?" and then when i heard one song mix into the next, with no DJ in the booth, i really got confused and started looking around. boy did i feel slow, hahah.
bobby - sucks about the ride man, should've called me. ;) |

It was too late by then. I would've called you earlier in the day but he promised me the ride, and then backed out. ******.
Thanks again for the offer, though. I'm gonna try and make it down for Max on the 24th I thinks. |
