I enjoyed Fila's set much more than the 1st time I saw him, in Brazil. That set seemed straight from ASOT 350 even put my wife asleep, but this was much different and harder/faster. I didn't think Aly would be playing so I wasn't disappointed in that. At least Taj didn't call Fila "Mr. Aly and Fila" hehe.
After watching my longtime friend fupaking say what's up to all the TAs at the show last night (DaveT, etc.), I knew it was time to stop lurking and come on in to the forum.
As others have said, Fila was awesome last night.
Sometimes when you go see Armin or Markus, you end up going home saying "Damn, he played really progressive last night, I'm not sure I've heard many of those tracks before."
Not so with this show. Fila played true to their style and that's exactly what I needed. Hard productions, loud, banging, high energy. Aly & Fila the way you know it and the way you love it. :-)
I loved their hour at ASOT 350 back in '08 (which introduced me one of my favorite epic tracks of last year, Philippe El Sisi's "Never After"). If you liked that hour, you probably loved Fila's set on Friday night.
Hadn't been to 1015 in a while having mostly been to Ruby Skye lately, but man, but I forgot how f'ing great it is to get that close to the decks to watch the guys work. Will definitely have to get back there some more.
Highlight of the night for me was hearing FKN's "Still Time" (A&F Remix, of course). Looked around and was really happy with how well those around me knew the tracks. That's always awesome. 50% of any time out is the DJ and the other 50% is the energy around. The crowd wasn't big, but there was a core group of people having a helluva lot of fun. Mixing it up with them was great.
And if you want any sense of the energy of the place, I could describe it to you, but it's probably better that I just offer you this video I took during Sunlounger - Lost (A&F Remix):
The crowd energy about 2/3rds the way through the video says it all. (Sorry for the poor quality, it's just an iPhone video. And next time I won't sing along - my bad. Didn't expect that I'd be posting the video up on TA. Oops. :-))
Would love to do it again. Aly & Fila, I see that your schedule is empty for the last week of March. Here's one man's vote for you to come to Miami for WMC. Drinks on me and fupaking if you do.
Thank you Aly & Fila. Thank you TAs and attendees for bringing good vibes to the party. Thank you Taj and everyone else who helped organize it. Incredible music. Incredible night.

Ya. He did have his own A&F shirt on. lol. That's actually how I met him. He was standing by the booth and I asked him if he knew where I could get the shirts that I ordered.

Haha, yes. Correct. But yeah, awesome night it was. Fila played a great set. Your set w/ John Beavers was great as well Blurr. Got there right in time. The only that sucked was that we left right before Taj was about to come on. It's all good though.

Like everyone else, I thought the event was superb! I couldnt ask for a better night. Blurr and John Beaver's set was so much fun and they played some of my fav tracks. If you were listening to the live broadcast you would think it's just one person playing. Fila didn't hold back and just let us have it! This was the kind of trance i was craving for.
I got a chance to meet some new TA's finally! There's something special about meeting fellow TA's, it's like you've been friends from previous life. I wanted to thank Blurr personally for the shirts but he was busy the whole night. I'm gonna wear the shirt when they come to Vegas. I hope he wasn't kidding when he said he may come either in Apr or May.
I took these videos. The first one my wife requested it. He may have planned to play this track anyway since they recently made this remix but i'm glad he played it anyhow. I was surprised he didn't play 'key of life'. I was totally expecting it that's why i didn't request it.

dont think it was as I asked him and he said he forgot too :whip: :mad: :( I made sure to have two ways of recording on the system, shoutcast and harddiskogg (real time recorder and encoder). both have to be manually started though.
I recorded the ambiance on my zoom h2 but i put it right next to the monitor so its a bit loud and not the best quality but you can hear the crowd. Going to upload it now and have Blurr go through it cause I can't for awhile. I need to work on class projects and catch up on a lot of stuff including pics.
