Sorry this is so late, but definitely deserved a review.
Got there around 2, next to no line up. The place was pleasantly crowded but not packed for most of the night. Thanks to Jeff for the passes.
Jonny White did a good job opening, definitely built some energy in the room and a change in style was most effective. I didn't hear anybody complain about the opener, and people were definitely groovin.
Miller took to the decks & took the place by force. The dancefloor was buzzin from the moment he stepped on until the end of the night. (There wasn't tons of people left @ 8am, but those who were there were still going hard) He just kept the momentum building the entire time. IMO this is the best "$10" night out there in T.O., definitely a big bang for your buck (with GL obviously but it's not hard to get) there's no doubt in my mind this night will just get better & better.
Big thanks to Tara for helping me get my gf's blue sonic hat signed by Sean. Thanks Hun!
ps. I'm totally blanking on any track names, but both Miller & White played a solid mix of big tunes & lesser known tracks that was both invigorating & refreshing. |

It was actually $20 this weekend, with it being a $20 all night cover.
I think Sean has proven that he is as good as, or better than a lot of international talent these days..... $20 is well worth it for a dj of his quality. |

I had a really good time, last couple of times at Sonic were a bit disappointing to be pretty honest.. but I expected this night to be dark and goovy which it was most of the time...
I liked how the place was filled - not packed, hot - not steaming hot, and it kept filling up slowly but surely until like 4am, and from then everyone stayed until maybe 7 - that's when it started slowly crawling out of there.. and I thought there were still more people than usual in the morning..
If it wasn't for my tetanus shot that day I would have had more fun, but my arm was killing me from time to time so :mad: |

Hey Louis....
Jonny was not playing too hard at all...
We arrived just before 2, the place was quiet...and he was playing some "loungy" sounds...very soothing and a great warm up...then within 30 minutes, he was kicking it good..playing to the crowd...and drawing people to the dance floor...
I think he did a GREAT job opening. I had never heard him before, and I came away very impressed! |

I came for the last 30 minutes of his set because I fell asleep at home (pre-sonic naps are a good idea actually), so I don't really know how it went, but by asking around it was really good - not necessarily upbeat and something you would start dancing like a maniac too, but people were definitely grooving and anyone I asked said it was a perfect opening for Sean Miller..
I think their styles would (or did) go really well together, and if anything then they are just getting used to playing along each other's side and things will only get better..
If you missed out on Sat and really really want to get an idea for next time, you can download some mixes jonny white made on his MySpace.. his latest one is really good (nicaragua) .. enjoy! |

Nice one guys:)..... thanks for the support on my new concept night and future record label :)
"CLASH" to me is simple.......Quality Music !! Its what its always been about for me and i will do my BEST to provide you with the best I can get my hands on: ) The club has also agreed to make sure that we get it looking different in there each and every time moving forward. This is important as well, so that when u walk in there u automatically think (alright ;) It needs to be warm, weird and welcoming so you feel a certain way from the first moment. That along with the music it will provide for a great night out…… (I hope :)
Anyways, thanks to sonic and you guys for everything …… see u on the dance floor!!
