After careful consideration, I'd have to say that my most memorable night at The Guv complex was Tiësto's official first time at the Guv/Koolhaus on Oct. 6, 2001 Guv's 5yr Anniversary. I say 'official' because they tried to start a Wednesday night that lasted about 5weeks, and Tiësto was one of the first acts to get booked, an it also included Max Graham. As for the Mainroom, I would have to say that my most memorable night there was Armin's first event at Guv in April 2002. It was the first time I would party with a fellow TOTA who would be the future mother of my daughter, and it was the first time I would meet many of you creeps :D
edit: My buddy caught Tiësto's signed headphones when he threw them into the crowd that day in Koolhaus.
Also, a notable mention goes to Decadence ll 2005 with Carl Cox & AvB. NuNRG was insane that night! |

"Although I've divorced myself emotionally from The Guvernment, a decade ago, I appreciate the venue as world class.
From 1999 to 2004, I was a regular at The Guvernment complex. From the rise of ZRF Productions to the password only nights at the Drink and the insanity of the Goldclub Lounge, those years of nightclubbing taught me things that I use to this day.
Back then, how could you tell that the random disaster stumbling down the stairs would later become a valued friend? How would you know somebody in your class -that you never talked to in school btw - had the same secret life on the weekends as you?
The music and party interconnected people, forging long time friendships. I'd have to thank Guv for that.
(There's nothing like losing your friend in the Guv for a big party, especially before cell phones/texting took off. Our only solace was, "if you get lost, meet me at the chains".
I'm not going to be caught dead saying goodbye to Guv in person, so I might as well say it here. An era in Toronto nightlife is ending...thanks for the memories." |
