well now I can say that I am no longer a Guvernment and a LOL virgin!!
what a great first LOL for me. Where do i start..!
Got there at 10:30ish, skipped thru line quickly and went to the Tent to chill before Cattaneo comes on. Whoever was spinning in there then was quite good, got my ass bouncing on the couches! beautiful crowd in there too.
Then we moved to Guv when luke fair was playing. It was allrite, but nothing revolutionary. We were on the stage behind the dj booth and had plenty of space. Then who do i see poppin up by the DJ booth, CATTANEO, excitment kicks in!!!
Few minutes later, cattaneo invades the booth and drops em one by one. Wow I <3 Cattaeneo. I loved the dancing space on the stage and the patio being not soo packed. Guv wasnt super packed during his set, which was great.
Then I wanted to check Armin, since he was playing at the same time as armin, we went to KH just for a little. What a friggin sweat fest in there, not even dancing and im pissing wet, so i didnt get into it. Bathrooms in KH are wayyyyy too small and pple r dumb in there. yuck
then we head back to good ol guv for some more cattaneo. yummmy
then who do i see poppin up close to the dj booth, DIGWEEEEEEEEEED, omg!! excitment level 120/10 :D to top off that evel to 1000/10, myself and milos go see him and take a picture with him,, highlight of the night!!!!!(part 1!!!!)
Then we went to KH for some junkie XL, OMFG, his first 5-6 tracks were off the hook. Amazing crowd interaction. Props to junkie xl. First time seeing him. Beastie boys song tore me a new one. I was jumping like a mofo in there and sweating like a pig. Glad KH wasnt super packed then!!! then it was time to return to the GUV for some Digweed
DIggers is sooooo sharp, so great, hes my biatch :P cant wait to see u at dragonfly!!!!!! his tunes were crazy one after the other. then we went by the DJ booth and got a picture with CATTANEO!!!! Thats highlite #2 of the nite!!
it was starting to get late, and everytime we were to leave to drive back to niagara, Digger dropped another sick one....so we stayed longer and longer to finally take off at 5:20. What a nite. Made it to bed at 7.
I was glad to meet some new TA's last nite: Lisa loo and your bf(sorry bud if i dont remember ur name), saw magikb, laura, fahad( sorry i didnt say hi, i was boucin too much at digweeds and cattaneo!), nada i saw u in another lineup so i could say hi, sasha i cant wait to see ur pics of diggers and cattaneo!!!, im prolly missin many more
Luke fair - 7/10
Cattaneo 10/10
Armin - no rating as KH was nuts and couldnt get into it
Junkie XL - For the 1st part 11/10!
Digweed 20/10.
Crowd 2.5/10 - sweetie pushy and shirtless ewww
pictures with digger and cattaneo PRICELESS |

Overall was a good night but not a great night for me. I showed up right by 12..didn't realize guv had valet parking but lol just handed over my keys to some guy...hubby thought the bimmer was gone for good but we got it back in one piece. Paid off the bouncer and literally got in in about 2 minutes while my poor friends were waiting at least 30-40 minutes in the guestlist line.
Maybe I just prefer smaller venues now but moving from room to room really kills the musical feeling for me. Armin was good...not great...Junkie XL didn't impress either....but Ferry and Diggers....Woweeee....I've never seen either live yet and they were both making me feel the music.
What's up with skybar and the speakers blowing out every so often?! I think a roadtrip to Dragonfly is definitely in order for the 20th.
It was nice seeing the TA's last night. Always puts a smile on my face. :) |

I LOVED ARMINS OPENING TRACK ! been dying to hear that in a club ..
(Eric Prydz vs Pink Flyod - Proper Education)
I've been fastly growing a fan of some of eric prydz stuff .. great for starting a good hard set like armin is to be counted on for :) |

i got in about 10 minutes before armin started playing. oliver sounded slow and relaxed compared what i'm used to hearing from him.
buuren was awesome. loved every track he played. solid set with non stop dancing.
after his set went for a walk around to the tent for a bit. some wicked beats there then went to the guv for a bit and heard a good portion of digweed. some wicked songs. but imo, it was nothing compared to armin and ferry.
ferry was awesome too. i was hoping to hear some songs but didn't and heard other ones that got me moving.
met some TA's and saw a bunch other ones walking around. i didn't say hi though for some reason.:(
pics and videos from my phone will be up soon.
anyone know how to convert a 3gp video to something else? its from my razr and i lose video when i export it with quicktime. |

If anyone caught Atomic Hooligan's set in Gallery...PM me...just curious how it was (and how Gallery was for breaks). |
it was about 3/4 full for most of the night regardless of who was on the decks. i wasn't there for DJ Craze's set tho so i dunno how that turned out.

| not at a bad night but nothin special either. startin of the nite was pretty slow, couldnt get into any of the music cause of the crowding. finally at like 2-3 am the orange room got me pumped. all i can say is that the tent was where the party was. we just kept goin back for more and more electro house and did it deliever, boyz noize and princess superstar ripped the place up and the sound system was probably the best in the entire complex. koolhaus sounded muddy but the tent was perfect. when boyz dropped that remix of breathe n pirncess dropped smack my bitch up the place went mental, even scored myself a boyz vinyl n got it autographed :). prob not goin to another LOL again, grown out of em... rather stick to my smaller parties where i can actually move. |
