| One of the greatest parties I've ever been to. I came to see Nu-Nrg for the fourth time and this performance was at the same level as when I first saw them at the Arc! Absolutely goosebumps when END KISS was played, plus the Born Slippy teaser. When Nu-Nrg is playing with a sound system like that, and the tempo is fast, there is no better act in the world in my opinion. Nick Warren was good too. I only caught a bit of Armin, prolly like an hour or so (Ridgewalkers - Find was playing while I was in the coat check). Anyway, we had a huge group drive up from Ann Arbor, everybody had a great time, and we are all considering coming back for Ultra Spin 7! I also enjoyed exploring. I had been to the Guv previously like two times, but never ventured above the ground floors. Best club (complex) I've seen. Nice work all around last night, or was it last night? I don't remember. |

Got to KH lineup at around 10:30-11:00 or so. After about half-hour got in. Then we waited another half hour for coatcheck. I have never been so anxious to get into an event in my life (especially because i could taste the beats coming from inside... man...)
I didn't end up makin' it to the TA meetup point you guys decided on 'cause I was also meeting up with other TA's and friends all over the place. I did come dressed in my white getup, however.
So I was mingling to the likes of DJ Remy, when Nick Warren got up on the decks. I've seen Nick a few times before. The first was at Meow in 2000 where he was amazing. The last one I saw him at he was spinning a very boring set (i would have probably loved it if it was a recorded mix and I was chillin at home or driving my car at night).
... so my expectations for him were pretty low this time. But he surprised me (and surprised everyone else it seems) because he progressed so well with some solid tracks like 'Avatar - The Haze (Greed's Blackwatch remix)' then going to some crazy hard Acid House! Holy !! He was on FIRE!!! I actually had to stop some conversations in mid-sentence to dance out the rest of the track(s)!
Time FLEW by for Nick's set and before I knew it, Nu NRG was gracing us with their presence. There's something to be said from a LIVE PA -- the sound quality was just so precise, tight... and they played us like one of their instruments! Especially when they broke out into Born Slippy!!!! The place went NUTS!!! The cheers almost drowned out the PA!! Great job guys!! Seen them twice and both times they haven't disappointed!
Then Armin comes on and I must admit, at this point in time I was a little off my rocker so I went exploring around the complex with a friend of mine. We tasted a little Armin from time to time (All the time very solid and lovin' every second), hung out in the Orange Room for a while listening to some wicked-ass breaks (I can't remember who was spinning at the time.. it was either Atomic Hooligan or Evil 9), visited the Guv for some Cox (Wow.. what Bangin' techno -- I don't know if he was doing this or not but it sounded like he was layering some acapellas over some tracks and was messin' around with the EQ's, takin out the lows and makin' his own buildups by being his own 'filter' -- then bringin' back the lows and BANGIN the outta the place!!) and then back 'n' forth between the Orange room and KH.
PLEASE forgive me if I forgot your name -- i know for a fact there are some people who I said hi to that I recognized but cannot for the LIFE of me remember their names. Here are some shout outs to people I ran into:
Gq_styles, Pixiechick and Jimmy, Lipstick and Drew, Charmscars and Matt (Vagrant), J_Spot, Eric (Vagrant), Tatgirl, StereoPrincess, Gamma, djeso, Endlesswave, Cono_sur, Desidel, Ezekiel, RabbitJoker, Chinaman, Highroller, VividBoy, Rodrico, Durafei, Karim (YOU were shmammed when I talked to ya! hahaha wicked!), Lilpoonzgirl, Vertigo (Cale, saw you OUTSIDE at the end -- too bad I missed ya on the inside), DancingQueen169 (saw you after Cale -- same goes to you), Ub3rTrancer...
And to my friends who are not TA's:
Gavin, Diana, Steve C, Travis, Ann, Katie, Kelly, Steve L, Jeremy, Heather, Oliver (and Max -- thanks for the 'gifts' :) ), Kerri, Rose and Chris (I love you guys!! I haven't forgotten any of the night with you both!), Cecilia.
It was a shame that Enraptured (James) was ill this night. We missed you man! I hope that flu is gone and you are back up and running!
That's all for now -- i am not gonna go through the technical review (smoking issue, sound, crowd-type/capacity) -- that factual stuff has all been said.
See you guys later!! |

You guys should go to your options and change it to 40 posts a page. It makes the board look less cluttered.

Good times, great review! Hey, you're in burlington right? Keep in touch. When me and my friends go to party's, I'll let you know, maybe you can hitch a ride with us or vice versa. I'll PM you my msn.
And yeah, I was wondering where James was. Was looking forward to meeting him.
