I didn't end up leaving for this about an hour later then I wanted to (Around 1 PM) Hit about an hour of traffic, which was expected, and ended up getting to the Pier an hour late. I saw Tom like within the first 5 min of walking in (Which seems to always happen ;) Hmm where to start next here...Allright, my opinion of the Venue is well...I mean it could/would have worked a lot better if maybe they sold 1/2=3/4 less amount of tickets then they did (I know, that would never happen, maybe if a "less popular" DJ was booked there would have been a lot more room, or something, I don't know) - There was just too many people there for this place. Not only that, I agree with many people also I thought the sound was pretty bad. I guess it didn't "suck" I mean it could have been worse but I just didn't think it was loud really at all in general, was decently clear I guess sorta depending on where you was. I remember I spent like about 30 min to squeeze my way to the very front just to see how it sounded up there, and I didn't think it was that much different/better at all - So I spent most of my time and danced in front of the rear speakers on the right, if you was facing the stage. I can definaly say I like Central Park and the Mcpool'd a lot better as outdoor venues...
I really can't remember if I liked this set better then his set last year at CP. The fact that I can't remember means that it wasn't anything special in general - Yea he played some good songs, but he always seems to play a lot of commershal sp stuff at these outdoor NYC parties (I was hoping I wouldn't hear As the rush comes this year, especialy at a different outdoor place, but it seems like it's tradition for him to play it now =p) But it's all good, I really appreatie sp that Made events puts effort into throwing these events, and just the fact that a great DJ is playing outside in the city I find really cool.
I can't say I regret going at all, because like a good amount of people have said - The people is what makes/made it the most fun for them and that in itself is worth going to me. I saw people I haven't seen in a really long time, and met some new awesome ones (As I talk about in the Love review thread =p) And I re-interduced to StarSoprano, which I'm happy I did, because she remembered me (Or at least pretended to) From a couple years back when I met her briefly in Miami.
Haha, great timess - Looking foward to Roseland!

Nice weather, meet a lot of new people and everyone was very friendly in the area I was in. I stayed in the middle towards the back or on the VIP sides which were nearly empty. The jetski guy was fun to watch haha I took a pic of him. The area was narrow but in my opinion it was manageable. I wore open toe shoes and my feet weren't stepped on once. The bathroom lines were quick and the menu for food was much better this year. Pretty good set although the set at Webster was much better in my opinion.
There were a lot of people there and I couldn't find a bunch of you. missed Lyss, Joey and Dani. Where were u guys?
Hung out with some cool peeps from Mexico, Miami, CT and NY of course...Liz, Wendy, Paul, and Luis! Love you guys <3
