This was a really good music.I can agree with the enough space but I would prefer crobar or spirit.Bartendars were totally stupid.I saw one of them i guess he was around 60.They were too slow.security were also idiot.Two or three gang attached one girl and a guy at the bathroom and security was like my grandmother.
By the way %20 of ppl came inside for free.They didnt pay anything.No dress code.They welcomed took everybody from outside.
For me.This venue is TERRIBLE. |

I wasn't there. But, I totally agree. That's totally getting a little absurd. I remember when I saw him at Space in Miami '04. He played Crush 4 times. Yes... 4 times. |
I see your 4 Crushs and raise you 3 As The Rush Comes from his first summerstage event in '03.
Ever since, I haven't liked a single set of his. I still went to summerstage last time but it was even worse than the first year. Simply horrid. I'm angry that I missed out on 2004's, though. I hope he does better on multiples of two, years. :stongue: |

I liked the venue simply because it actually accomodated for the crowd quite efficiently..bathrooms,coatchecks, etc were no problem..now onto the set:
-First off, Paul was into the set and really feeding off the crowd. The first 2.5 hours was unbelievable IMO! The track that made me go bananas was Danny Tenaglia - Dibiza (especially since its on my demo.hehe). He definitely slowed it down around 4am, and never really brought the energy back up, especially since the last half hour were all of his "norm" songs. Great night, and it was nice to get home at a decent time...I'll post a tracklist later...
And playing Tell Me Why instantaneously brought me back to a time when I thought PvD was Bono! :D |

just woke up from a monster hangover
got there a lil early and expected a mess of a line like there always is when pvd comes to town but it was dead got right in
the coat check line and bathroom line moved smooth all night long
jerry's set deff got me in the mood he was playin some good stuff
the crowd was still a lil thin and i thought it wouldent pick up that much but it got packed to a really good size
perfect in matter of fact to where you can walk threw and no be smooshed
pvd's set was good he played alot of techier songs
i was there from 11 till 4 so i dont know what i played after 4
i honestly was expecting to hear more trance i dont mind the techier stuff but i wanted to hear more trance but thats just me
the venue was good and the sound and lighting and lasers were dope
i still feel his set at roxy in nov was better
only downside of the night was the line for the bar and the jerkoff bartenders i had to wait like 15 min to get a drink and a bottle of water for robdawg
by the way good seeing you your deff a cool ta
overall it was a good night i went nuts when he dropped summer dream that was the tune of the night for me |

To the best of my knowledge.. I was whoa buzzed... PvD closed his set with Dogzilla - Without You. (i was chanting along with it :toothless )
And he then encored with Time of Our Lives and what's the other track name? grrr.. but yeah.
PvD :happy2: |

I HEARD "BBE - 7 DAYS AND 1 NIGHT", ON A CLUB SYSTEM SPUN BY PVD!!! FINALY!!!! AFTER 7 YEARS OF PRAYING!!!!!!!!! :crazy: :crazy: :eyes:
OMG, this killed me!!!
But I'm jumping ahead...
First, the highs:
1. Virtually no line to get in. Comparing to 2 hour lines and strong chance of being turned away at other venues - this was a great relief. I was in the door, through coat check and out on the dancefloor in about 5 mins flat.
2. Found a secret passage from the basement to the VIP area (set of stairs to the unguarded and unlocked doors in VIP section). Once in VIP area I enjoyed the following benefits:
3. No lines at the bar (downstairs bar was mostly staffed by slow and geriatric bartenders who moved slower than mollases in January)
4. Clean(er) and line-free bathroom (at one point bathroom in the basement was not only packed with guys but with girls too - which lead me to search for another bathroom and landed me in VIP section)
5. Seat smack in the middle of the balcony with a full view of the dancefloor and obviously PvD.
6. Laser show view to die for (I'll post pics later)
Now the lows:
SOUND SYSTEM SUCKED! IT WAS TOO LOUD, TOO CRUDE, TOO PAINFUL! EVEN UPSTAIRS, AWAY FROM THE SPEAKERS MY EARS WERE BLEEDING. I woke up this morning with ringing in my ears - something that didn't happen on Phason system. That JBL setup was (oh and it crapped out around 2am for like 5-10 mins).
I don't know - maybe I am in a small minority but did anyone notice that his set wasn't up to par last night? I honestly thought it sucked and I am as big of a PvD fan as it gets, but I just can't disregard the fact that he finds it necessary to make his NYC sets 70% techy. He was mostly techno/house with very little Trance. I'd even venture to say his set was very... dark.
PvD used to have some kind of flow to his track. This time around, he was all over the place. Went from Crush in to some crazy Tech House track. Then from Tell me Why into a land of more Techno. I don't know, but I just don't dig the "harder, NYC-ish PvD". Last night was probably one of the worst set flows/track selections that I ever heard him spin.
Also, that sound outage for 5 mins I think has taken the air out of the crowd and totally killed the build up.
At 4 am I expected him to start banging more melodic sounds but he was in a quite dark territory by then with no hope of getting out. As I was leaving at 4:30, quite a few people were sitting out his Techno section, not many dancing.
Overall, if judged by set alone, this night was 3/10.
If judged by overall experience, venue, sound, crowd - it was 7/10.
So, overall average for my experience is 5/10 night.
Shame but I don't think I'll be going to see PvD anytime soon.... and probably not in NYC anymore - I hate the TechHouse side of PvD that tends to get out in NY.
Hope some of you had a better time. |
