big ups thank you...definatley peeps like you that spread the unity - did you go to twilo?...
PS hope you dont mind the ORIENTAL comment... that was only aimed at that meejungee dude....... |
I am German, so I did not mind the comment. I do understand his concern to a degree. i spent 9 weeks in HK and the vibe i got was that there was quite some tension between the Asian people (chinese) and the oriental people (e.g. indians)
anyhow, I have never been to twilo :( I really wish i had gone.. well, I am going to be in NYC more often now:D, methinks (been back in the US for 3 weeks, gone to NYC 2 times.. and going again for ferry this weekend!!!) |

never thaught oriental = indians ..but hell i could be more ignorant than i am now - i wont push the issue anymore ...
as far as exit advice goes....
rule #1
you will be searched at the door by an unfriendly militant/gay bouncer that will incist on sticking his finger up your ass (possibly feeling the little plastick baggy that you will hide in there -but still not doing about it......
why?:eek: - i'm as baffled by this as you are.......
dont put it in your shoes either - they might make you take them off... best place inside your sox by your toes.....
rule #2
for all you know you are back in HK ... very unfriendly crowd... i a the biggest PLUR believer and never once did i get into any sort of problem in my 5 years of partying in this sceen... with the exception of EXIT
i am not racist..but it seems that not everybody is like me... so word from the wise -when (not if) a chineese guy will have a problem with you - dont respond in any way - otherwise you and him will both be kicked out (by a big black bouncer - with the bouncer recieving most pleasure from this activity)
rule #3
stay on the stage for most room, comfort, view of the DJ booth, sound, ease of entrance/exit so you could reach the bathrooms :) (theres a door in the back of the stage and a flight of stair lead you right up to the restrooms...
rule #4
as much knowledge as i may have about exit - doesnt mean i go there - so please no one accuse me of liking that place...
rule #5
enjoy the vastness of the venue - its the largest club in NY and the biggest one i've been in in the USA (i hear DC has some club thats bigger)
rule #6
rules and enjoy your time :)
PLUR :) |

| O.G.gOOk |
| as you can see my name is o.g.gook so i believe that it is my duty to clarify oriental and whatnot. "oriental" refers to things while asian refers to people. im sure you didnt write oriental to offend so i dont know what the big deal is. i didnt go to sf but i am reading this thread nevertheless so that i can kick myself. oh yea and i think meejungee is a girl |

| O.G.gOOk |

i think swamper is the guy that runs the site - i dunno i'm a newbie here...but in some thread i saw somebody posting that he got rid of posting count (i.e. stautus)... so people would not put up junk post just for the sake of status....
i think its a good idea
stutus is earned by quality of your posts not quantity.....
a wise man listents while a fool runs his mouth (hence all my posts are long:rolleyes: ) |

I thought I could beat the line by getting there at 10:30. Didn't work... That damn thing wrapped around to the other side of the block. I stood at the back for about 15 minutes and realized I only moved 2 steps. Would have been a 2 to 3 hour wait. Like others, I decided to cut and was on the dancefloor by 11:30. Suprisingly, there was no coat check line. Luis Dias was OK. He warmed the floor up with a nice progressive set. PVD started off slow and progressively got harder and harder throughout the night. Between 5 and 7 that place was pumping with pure energy. SFs sound system was awesome. The place was packed out but that was no suprise. Left the club at around 7:30. Overall, it was a great night. It would have been better if I didn't get sick near the end.
Anyone know what time they stopped letting people in (if they did). |

good to hear that u got in ok.. Ye, that girl @ the door was a b$tch.. My girlfriend is 19 and does not have a driver's license.. So she took her college ID with DOB and a bunch of other IDs, including credit cards (means she is at least 18).. Gave us hard time @ the door around 10:30pm.. I am like, get a life woman.. so she called a supervisor and asked him if they would accept college IDs.. I spoke to the guy, showed him my id (I am 26) and like, I came here with her and we r not here to get drunk, blah blah.. So he let us in, NP..
Door search - pretty much non-existant for guys... I am SF regular, and the guy seemed to know me.. He just petted my back and told me to have good times...
Girl line on the other hand - Oh my.. they were searching through their Bras, bags and pants.. I felt kinda bad, since I left my stuff with a girl.. Finally we got on the main floor..
Croud was mainly oriental, but somewhat less cocky than Exit croud @ Tiesto... Lots of Twilo shirts...
PVD set was good, he threw some house around 5-6am, I guess to respect JP and his hard house style and SF vybe on saturday nights...
Miami set was sooo much better, but PVD never disappoints and I thoroughly enjoyed his SF set...
I do enjoy SF, even on regular Sat. nights, and I certainly hope hope he comes back to NYC, wherever he chooses..
SF went a great distance to put in lasers and bunch of projectors all around to make the club visually nicer.. Thumbs up for that to SF management, which is great, unlike EXITs...
Had to leave around 6:30, I was upset since I did not wanna leave @ all...
He closed around 8:30ish...

dude whats up with you why would pvd respect jp the worst dj in the world nowone knows of him except ny and boston, he is not in the top 100 dj even if they had the top 10 thousand maybe he would be ranked number 9999, no disrespect but I see you havent heard pvd lately , this is how he plays, he has gotten much harder and more progressive , please dont put jp's name next pvd you are embarassing him, jp sucks and needs to learn some new skills, trust me I know I used to listen to him like 5 yrs ago. |

| wow, friday night just blew me away... i been waiting to hear PvD for more than a year now... the last PvD(4-13-01@Twilo)the bouncer kicked me out right after the girl checked my id!!???? i was like wtf?? Twilo bouncers were mad shady like that.. anyways Paul Van Dyk really had me goin at SF.. first of all the crowd wasnt the usual SF heads at all.. i mean i was expecting alot of Twilo heads to be there but at one point, it seemed like all i saw was x-twilo kids(dont get me wrong, there were a few "shirtless muscle dudes" walkin around lookin for dumbchics) the vibe was ok.. PvD kept it goin real smooth.. started off prgressive and housey then little by little, his style of trance started to come on and the pitch changed unoticeably... by around 5-5:30 ppl were goin nuts.. with tunes like, Ever so lonely, Sunrise, Never , How we used to live, Be Angeled, i was really surprised to hear Punk(original mix) as well as Awakening by Rank 1.. i left around 6:30 cuz my gf wasnt feeling too great but i had an awesome time!! best party i 've been to in a loooong time for real.. and for the venue, it wasnt as bad as i thought... the security wasnt all up in your ass and wow SF got soooo clean!! i havent been to SF since like Oct. of 2000 and one thing i noticed was it got really clean.. it didnt look as ghetto. Oh and one last thing, i was really impressed by the sound system.. u can hear the lows and the highs crisp n clear! every bass that dropped was incredible! well i hope PvD comes back to NYC real soon cuz he made me a very happy clubber=) |
