hahaha yo get this guys. i was chilling with a girl who's B-day it was last night. this random ( i find out later that he is a n00b on TA) comes up to her and starts trying to dance with her and . our other friend intervenes and says:
"It's her birthday!!"
and then buddy replies:
"Oh ! Let me get the DJ," which was Markus at the time, "to do a shoutout for you!!!!!!!!"
we just shook our heads and laughed!!

| There is cold water in the guys' bathroom. The trick is to go to the last stall... (the one for disabled)... There's a separate tap there... |

LOL
Anyways, I arrived with Barry to Markus's hotel for an interview (I listened, Barry did the interview) and just chilled out with Markus for few mins before he was due to hit the decks.
Markus is one of the most relaxed dudes ever. The interview I thought was filled with some interesting tidbits for all you Schulz fans. Lots of thoughts from Schulz about the album, among other things. Worth a listen when Barry gets it up.
Markus put up with a lot of my questions. Asked him if he went on any boat cruise and he talked about one in middle of winter, from Sweden to Finland and the cruise ship was like an icebreaker... How cool is that for venue? Oh, and him and Armin on the decks. (hears fanboys/girls swoon. lol)
Got in the club at 12:30. Crowd seems to be pretty pumped already. Venue... Eh. Kinda reminds me of cleaner version of Viva, and no Asian sketch. Was only about half full though.
Markus hour 1 was awesome. Very hard, edgier prog. I didn't expect him to start off this hard and the crowd was going nuts. (or everyone in there was sketched out on something) Markus was very enjoying himself going nuts on the decks.
Hour 2 was very trancey and I think the crowd liked it for a bit, but was starting to lose out. Filled with typical tunes from recent Schulz playlist. It wasn't too bad. Even the vocal tracks didn't piss me off.
Hour 3 he started back with some harder stuff again and the crowd was back into it. Then more trance. Kinda back and forth. Ended around 3.
Although I expected him to play his typical style this time around, he got my hopes up with that amazing start to his set, only to play his trancier side. Boooooooo...
Again I'll say that his Armada Night prog set rocked and I think I'll see Schulz only when I know he's going to play Markus Schulz afterhours prog.
Random notes:
-fans mobbing Markus like it's a rock concert. Amusing, but not very cool.
-Schulz was very patient with constant mobbing and random requests he got.
-Dubfire - Roadkill is IMMENSE in a big club system.
-Dragonfly's sound system sucked. I put in my ear plugs and the highs and the mids get cut out. (no, they weren't ty earplugs) speakers aren't distributed properly, so there are gaps in the club where sound just plain sucked. also, lots of buzzing... like loose panels or somewhere in the club. annoying
-meeting random TAs is always good. always good to put a name to the face, even if I can't remember people for the life of me. still haven't met any Buffalo TAs though
-haven't been to Niagara Falls in years, and the downtown apparently feels like mini Las Vegas |

I was outside for a bit and this dude walks by with his buddy and says: "What is this? Like a Picadilly's in Niagara???"
Somebody replies: "Guy, get out more."

I have been to Dragonfly a ton, it seems to be pretty sketch free for the most part, but that could just be my imagination |

I did have on sketchy moment of the night. Later on that kinda shortish, really sweaty asian dude with the big glasses and black t-shirt came up to me and asked me for a sip of my water (which was lukewarm tap at the time). I was just like 'um, sorry dude, I'm a germaphobe'
Which not really, but , that's just kind of gross.
Markus is my #1 DJ, but I didn't really spend any time near the booth because it's an audio dead-zone. I went up really quick to bother him for an autograph near the end and was waiting for a moment when he was interacting with the crowd and all those retards up front kept putting their hands up in the booth and screaming his name while he was cueing up tracks and . He must have a lot of patience to put up with that crap and still look like he's loving the crowd. |
