What a ing party!!!! Words cannot describe this. Legendary I guess is the one word that does it justice.
I got there at 7, watchIng them get the boat ready, waiting in anticipation for what I thought was gonna be an epic night. Massive props to Oz who didn't overpack the boat... It was probably just the right amount of people. And the best part: the crowd. Everyone there was the most mature I've seen at a party. Couldn't have found a better bunch of people to go on a cruise with. So much love everywhere!!
Andrew, you played the best set I've seen so far from you. A couple tracks I wasn't sure of but once you found the groove you rocked it :D didn't stop grooving the entire night... I was all around the boat, dancing at various locations, and the sound was decently consistent around the boat. The only complaint was not hearing the destructive baseline of Guy J's Migrants edit, but that was just me being a stupid nitpicker.
I went crazy at probably almost every track, which is because I'm such a Guy J fanboy (lol) but also because the tracks he selects to play have such infectious basslines. They just cause your body to move. One thing that sucked: having a glass bottle dropped on my feet (was wearing sandals) and breaking. Thankfully I didn't get any shards in my feet. It was probably my bad wearing sandals but I dno, maybe not serving glass on a boat would be a better solution. Also the dude that dropped it obviously didn't mean it, pretty sure he didn't realize what was going on around him :p
Anyways: party of the year. Hands down. I was telling my friend how I don't understand when people say they don't like this music because it's called progressive. Hopefully they were listening to the stream and realizing how groovy this genre can be, especially with how much deeper its gotten since the early 00's. |

Best Boat cruise I've ever been on in my 10+ years partying. The sound was levels above my expectations and the crowd was truly together on this one; with a great mix of young well-versed music lovers and some serious veterans manning the cannons (obligatory pirate reference CHECK).
Andrew was lights out and nailed the subtleties and balance of a professional opening set. Some of the last few tracks he dropped certainly woke up some islanders and had me bowing in respect. Time for a headline set ASAP.
Guy J was and is the pinnacle of the genre for me right now; how he finds the time to produce the depth and number of pieces, remixes etc that he does and still see any daylight is a feat of genius considering what has been released is only a small percentage of his full tracklist.

A perfect party aboard the floating nightclub on Lake Ontario.
Best boat party I've been on - from pre ticket, boarding (on time I might add since everyone always complains when boats leave late), to selling tickets to the perfect amount of people. It was as if we were not in Toronto...lol
Andrew Guy J and the Magical Mystery Boat....
Hats off and thank you to Oz and all that pulled this together. |

| Had such a fantastic night. Night cruises for this win. Would love to see this boat used more often. Congrats on another stellar event, Oz. |

great party and i know it's been said but the crowd was awesome. lots of familiar faces and not a tweaker to be seen
i said it on the boat and i'll say it again (to oz) - congrats on throwing a pretty much perfect event. no small task
one thing though - what was with that crazy boat rocking like an hour or 90 mins in? people stumbling all over the place. we went out around the island to this pretty remote area i've never been to (and i used to dj on a couple of the boats). it seemed like the waves got pretty big for a while then just died. anyone?
oh and +1 on not serving glass - just asking for trouble doing that on a boat. at least the beer selection was pretty good |

A friend of mine said she saved my life during the heavy rockiness. Apparently I almost fell down the closed flight of stairs to the right of the booth but she stopped me by putting her knee out behind out. Could of been bad. Don't remember it happening though. But yea, Really rocky.
BTW, I have no complaints. Like others have said... by far the best boat! :D |
