OMFG what a night!!!!
Feel like right now because I just waited 1 hour for security to let me into my building (I forgot my passcard at home! :mad: )...wanted to polish off a few things for today so I decided I'd take the 5 minute drive from Viva to go to work...
AIRWAVE KICKS ASS!!!!!!!!! Man, when he does his get-down-n-dirty face to pump up the crowd he looks really scary!!!! TOTALLY PUMPS YOU UP!!!! I wish I caught that expression on camera; this man really knows how to make the crowd explode! I heard "Say Hello" for the first time in a big club and I can see why so many of you love it! And his track, "Hello Sunshine" was SIIIIIIIIIIIIIICK!!!!
Sorry, DJ Celica, I'm sorry I couldn't hear your set (got in around 1:30) but I heard Tygon proppa...in' well done, bro!!! I was so happy to finally hear you spin your magic in a big club and I was so into it!!!
I was kinda getting tired around 4:30 as most of my KW crew had left (THANKS FOR SAYING BYE CALE AND DAN :mad: ) but I met so many new TAs...will be shouting out in a sec...anyway, even though I was only in there for 3 hours, the humidity was getting to be a bit too much (they really need to do something about the air circulation in Viva; the air was hot and HEAVY as hell! :( I tried to support my TAs in front and centre by flapping my towel to fan ppl down a bit but it's never enough! :( Nice to go out in the patio but it wasn't really fresh air I was breathing; I think I smoked a pack's worth just from second hand smoke! :p
But as I was considering leaving, MARK OLIVER comes on and suddenly the whole crowd shifted into NEXT GEAR!!!!! SUCH WICKED TRACKS!!! One was a Ferry classic (can't remember the name) and it totally lifted me up and made me last another hour and a half!!! Then I had to get going...
FINALLY got to meet RobbyG (dude you are COOL), Orko, TranceGrooves (munday, you rock! ;)), dnmr, Pettischool, Carney, Smuncky, Jayx1 (nice lighting job, man, it was beautiful! :D), and the usual suspects including Dan the Man, Cale, awishabear (girl, you did NOT disappoint ;)), Lowell (and your WIFE!!!! Dude, she's so nice! :) Hope she comes out again!), Ampz, Tygon, DENNIS HAHN, Celica, MaxTO, RTT, DJ_baby_tenshi...also a VERY brief hello to Schryer and Jenna.
Tyler, you have absolutely crazy amounts of energy...it was so cool to soak in the beats with you at front and centre! :D Djvery and bourgeois, you too!!! Both of you have wikked energy, and bourgeois you kick ass with the glowies!
Tygon, Celica, and Ampz thanks again for making this event happen, and for pushing my ass to show up! :p I really had an amazing time!!!
When I left around 5:45/6ish, I saw RTT (Rob) and his girl, babytenshi sitting outside! We drove over to BK's nearby for breakfast to cap off a wonderful night...
...now to get some work done! ;) |

Holy Mother Mary Of Sweet Jesus...............:stongue:
Words cannot describe the kind of night i had. For the first time since i have been in Canada and been clubbing i felt like i was right at home in a club in Miami. Greatest thanks to all the TAs that i met and for everyone who made this night an absolute delight. (shoutouts comin up).
Got to the club just after 11 as i wanted to really see Aaron (Dj Celica) spin. As i was having a smoke outside the front doors of the club before i went in, suddenly bass started thumping and Synergy - Hello Strings came as the first track Aaron dropped. I knew right then and there i was in for a great night. Aaron your set was awesome, job well done bro.:tongue2
Dj Tygon followed Aaron behind the decks and the dark hard beats just kept the night alive and i was really having a blast listening to some of the tunes Tygon dropped. WIcked set. Maybe i can score a copy of the set somehow?:D
Around 2am came on the man himself AIRWAVE...this was my first time watching airwave spin and seeing this guy is lots of fun as he is full of energy behind the decks. the tunes he dropped were amazing and his mixing was great. Danced my ass off in front of the Dj booth with eyeryone.
Last but not least came Mark Oliver around 4:20am. By this time i was so pumped up and stuff:p Mark dropped some real good tracks to begin his set with. His set was just perfect and the tunes he played were just the right tunes to be played right after Airwave.I left the club around 5:30 and only because i felt like i was gonna die in that hot and humid dancefloor. My clothes were completely wet from dancing all night:toocool:
Now to the shoutouts :gsmile: Aaron thankyou for hooking me up with the guestlist and it was great to see you there. Cale and Dan you 2 crazy lads are simply awesome people to party with. It was great seeing you 2 again. I also met alot of new TAs....Fahad "Yaar aap aik khas admi hao":tongue2 it was great dancing it up with you and Dan and Cale in front of the Dj booth. Good to meet Ampz , Dennis Hahn , Tygon ( thnx for the cd bro )Robby , Jayx1 , MaxTO and many more that i cant seem to remember but as said earlier it was really nice to meet all of you and hopefully i will see ya lot again at Tiesto.
Fahad, the Ferry classic that Mark played is called Holding On. Great track indeed. Thnx again to everyone that came out and thnx to all the people who made this event possible and a success. Mad props to Aaron and his crew for having this event and hopefully we will get to have many more great parties like this one in future. With that being said
Tyler OOUUUTTT........ |

GREAT party.
I'm still way too tired to write up a proper review, we got back into Cambridge at 6am, and I crashed around 6:30 - woke up at 11:50am.
Great to see everybody, and great to meet a bunch of new faces!
{edit} Fahad, where the were you when we left? We looked all over, couldn't find you. Sorry dude :( |

I didn't know what to expect last nite but MAN was that ever a great party:crazy: ...I danced my ASS off most of the nite and now I'm SOO tired today...I have to thank ALL the djs that spun last nite because the transitions from one dj to the next was smooth and I LUV that...I got to hear Dj Tygon's set (thanx SO much for the CD dude ;)) and loved the tracks he dropped...Airwave was simply SUPERB :tongue2 and when he left I was able to shake hands with him but he left quite fast out the back door.I heard he had to catch a flight or something.I was also blown away with Mark O's set as well...This guy had me goin & gave me the extra ounce of energy to dance my ass off...I think I must have lost like 5 lbs from sweating in there....MAN it was hot:eyes:
I was SO glad to have finally met my fellow F1 fan Fayraree...You are wikid dude;)...Trancegrooves & RTT and SO many others we're also in full force ...US TAs sure know how to have fun eh?:D ...I also said a quick hello to Jayx1...I wanted to go in the DJ booth dude but I didn't wanna go through the security guy guarding the booth...ANyway that was an awesome lite show:cool:
Anyway its time for me to grab a bite....hope to see you guys out & about soon ;) |

I dont know about the brawl outside the club but i sure the hell caught a glimpse of the cat fight inside the club Loooool. Girls with their fists up and boobs bouncing, there is something exciting about that even tho its a fight. :tongue2
I just realized when i went to the store to buy icecream that my voice is shot from yellin and screaming and singing all night long. The girl at the store told me my voice sounded like Arnie from Terminator.:conf: |

ohhhhh my god I don't even know where to start.
My fingers aren't working properly today cuz I'm so dead tired and drained but in a good way!!
I'VE NEVER HAD SO MUCH FUN IN MY LIFE!! I honestly can't find the words to describe it. My head is still ringing from standing up at the DJ booth, but I wouldn't have wanted to be anywhere else!!
This was my first experience at VIVA, but oh man, it was amazing. I got a ride in with Aaron, Barry and Lisa, we picked up Airwave and got to the club around 10 ish, to do sound check and make sure everything was working. It was really cool to check out the behind the scenes bit, since I'd never been to a place like that before (I consider Docks to be something else). It was a little weird to be like, one of the first people there, but it gave me a good chance to look around.
Barry let me listen in on his interview with Airwave, that was fun. We got back inside just as Aaron began his set. More people were comin in, sayin hi, enjoyin themselves - I can't remember the order I saw people in first, but I'll do my best to shout out to everyone (don't hold it against me if I forget anyone!!)
Gah! Anyways, I was up at the bar by the time Aaron's set got way into it, and feelin pretty good by the time Tygon started spinning. Must say THANK YOU to Lindsay, Avery and Carl for buying me drinks! AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY CARL!!!!!!!!!
I can't remember exactly when I got out on the dance floor, but I do know that once I got out there, I couldn't leave! It was so amazing to be up there and bustin a move. The music was great (I am not experienced enough to know a lot of the songs, but if they make my feet move, they rock!), the people dancing up there were great, and I'm sorry if I stepped on or hit anybody while I was dancing!! Thanks to Martin for letting me use his glow sticks, that was fun!
Aaron, Lisa, Lindsay, Airwave and me left around 5, when Airwave was done his set (which friggin rocked). We hung around outside for a little bit saying goodbye to everyone, but as soon as I was in that car, I was asleep. Fastest ride home from Markham EVER haha! Got in around 6:15, slept until 1 pm. I'm lazy and I love it!
Okay, now for the shout outs... and remember, awishabear had a bit to drink, and it was dark so don't get mad!!:crazy: Aaron, Barry, Jayx1, Dennis, Carl, Tim, Matt, Dan, Cale, Lowell (and wife), Avery, Alex, Justin (and friends) and Fahad! Ohmygodyourock! I know I'm forgetting people and if it's obvious I'm forgetting you, you can hit me later. I LOVE YOU ALL!
Alright, it's about time I get some food into me. I can't WAIT to go back to Viva someday and hopefully I'll see everyone out next next Thursday at Vault - I'm headin home for my mom's birthday this week, so I won't be there, but I'll be there in spirit!
Thanks to everyone involved in this awesome event, to Aaron for getting me so involved in this music and these people, I will never forget it, and can't wait for next time!! |

wow
W O W!
i got there aroudn 1.30 with my friend and my sis. the air was ok at that point and i was surprised by that. we heard tygon play for 30 min and it was great. nice pumping sounds. it really got me goin for airwave.
then the man himself came on. airwave was amazing. he played top notch tunes. i loved him engery and how he interacted with the crowd. arcadia was a perfect first track to start the set off.
throughout the night i met some TAs as usual and we were pumping it hard in front. you guys really have some great moves and danced ur asses off even with that humid air.
the air in there was terrible. thats one of the reasons i left cuz it was getting hard to breathe. this was my first time that i was actually tired at the end. you guys really gotta get that air moving in there with fans or something.
we left just a bit after MO started to play, so around 4.40. overall it was a great night and i hope to see u guys there for Cor Finjeman. |
