what a night. darren and i missed our Boltbus by a few minutes, and had to pay for the next one, so that set us back on time a little. we met up with brian, cabbed it from penn station, then stood in the line which was all the way to the end of the block, but it went pretty smooth. we walked in right at the end of blake's set around midnight. the bars were ridiculous. i gave up after awhile trying to get a drink there. also didn't see too many TAs other than joey, ryan tyas, big mike, and maybe one or 2 others. i thought armin's set was really good, but the sound probably would have been a lot better if i was in the middle where it was way too crowded, but i was hanging out on the sides most of the night or upstairs. i ventured out into the crowd a total of once, and ronski speed was carrying me around so i got a great view of armin. i had an awesome time if you dont count a few encounters i wish i could have avoided, but yeah, that's too be expected. i didn't stay til the end but all in all had a really great night, and i'm glad i got to hear Mr. Sam feat Claud9 - cygnes, but he dropped it so early in his set, i was not even on the dancefloor yet. i was pretty much expecting most of the tracks he played, but he was having a great time and brought a lot of energy, and i really dont care what anyone says, i love the cheesy tracks.

missed my bus back too and hopped on the 1:00 which was absolutely agonizing. i'm finally home and now getting ready for round 2 at Glow.

Not gonna lie, I'm not a big fan of Going Wrong.....but when he dropped the remix I enjoyed it thoroughly :o

i mean, it was given that he was going to play everything on ASOT 2008. but i am still enjoying ASOT 2008 so it was cool to hear a lot of those tracks played loud. i didn't get to stay for his whole set when he came to DC in october and was kinda bummed, so for me, it was worth it.

thought it was great man... i was the guy dressed up as the armin silhouette.. kinda cool when he got grimey at the end, but as said previously i couldnt believe he left when the crowd couldnt get enough

cheesefest, no doubt, and his shows since the bklyn bridge haven't been great at all, such as his last show in july. I was wondering why I wasn't feeling the show last night, maybe I wasn't in a great mood or I was over armin or something cause I've been seeing him for a few years non-stop. but then I also realized that last night there was nothing I was looking forward to hearing him play like I always do. wasted was nice and the morph mix of going wrong was good I'm sure, but there haven't been a lot of trance songs recently that I wanted to hear live. maybe there aren't a lot of big numbers this year for him to play? bklyn bridge was hit after hit, sick. I'll still go see him when he plays again only cause I won't miss any edm event at roseland (except tiesto who I never see) such a great venue for edm

Pretty damn exciting nite! I though Armin was more less on his game especially Blake, really enjoyed the set. Even if you felt Armin only did par, the excitement of the crowd made up for it! The attendance at 4:30am was pretty impressive as well, bareley anyone left. BTW it is pretty damn rude to chant "Armin" while the opener is is still on, that def pisses me off, but oh well, I felt the night went very well otherwise...

Even after driving five hours to get home, I'm still shocked with how much of a good time I had. Yah I'll admit it was sort of a cheese fest, but the music got me moving and I'll look back it fondly. I want to thank Blake for throwing on some old school. When Love Stimulation came on I was in heaven. The beginning hour was a little too downbeat for me but once 11 came around I couldn't stop moving. My knees gave out around 5:10. Sorry I didn't get to meet up with any of the East Coast TA's

why would i need to do this when i have already beatmatched the tracks together during the song that is currently playing? i no longer need the headphones on my head at that point except to cue the next track which takes a fraction of a second. i then take the headphones off of my head to hear the transition on the monitors (so i can hear what the crowd is hearing). im really having a hard time understanding your lofty accusation that im pretending to be mixing.



Pay no mind to that ;)
after all u r the one on stage opening for the # 1 dj:D

I did forget to mention that I thought that was some of the best visualizations I've ever seen. The mixing of the horror movies with the regular "trance" stuff was great.
