Amazing night! Spent with amazing people. Simply amazing! :)
We'll I got there at 10:00, and I didn't have any problems getting in. I think there was around 100-200 people in the club. So I walked around and listened to the sounds of Mark Oliver. In the beginning Oliver was dropping progressive tunes, which were melodic at times. At other times he would play abstract progressive tunes, none of which I could recognize. I chilled to Mark’s sounds for about one and a half hours until the Durafei, Artem, and Leila showed up :). I enjoyed chilling with you 3 as usual :). Soon after, Sharam came on, and everyone was screaming from excitement.
Deep Dish dropped a pretty banging set. Sharam was on first. At the beginning he was getting used to the equipment, or at least that’s what it looked like to me from where I was standing, and he dropped a couple of house tunes. But once he was comfortable spinning for all the nice peoples at the Guvernment, he started playing progressive trance, and that’s when the whole place started moving and shaking. He dropped all kinds of tunes from very dark and melodic progressive tunes to just dark and banging progressive trance tunes. I couldn’t recognize any of the tracks that he played except for a remix of the tune that goes something like “My house is your house and your house is mine...”. The original is a goa/psy trance tune, which sounds amazing! :) Anyhow, Sharam’s set lasted for about three hours and it was building up from start to finish.
Ali ‘Dubfire’ Shirazinia came next. His set was dark and hard. He played some very sick progressive trance that made the crowed go nuts. Everyone loved him so much that even as we were leaving at around 6:00 the Guvernment complex was still full! There was no room to dance even then! From what I saw people really loved Deep Dish :).
This was a great party! Deep Dish played a really banging set. I had an opportunity to meet StereoPrincess, and other TAs that attended this party. Props to all the TAs that made to this event! The highlight of my night was dancing and grooving to the sounds of Deep Dish with Durafei, Artem, and Leila. You guys rock! :) |

I also had a good time. At first I was worried when they dropped that really slow deep house tune at the beginning. I didn't want the rest to be like that but it picked up after that and I quite enjoyed the music. I have seen Deep Dish quite a few times but it was always with other DJs so I never went just to see them. It was really good in my opinion. Durafei and his friends were awesome. I was glad to meet NightCreature. Blue_Neon where the hell where you?? I wanted to see ya. I think I have seen you more when I lived in Ottawa then after I moved. halo20, I think that if you read this then you should definitely post what you thought of the party.
The only ting thing was that we had to leave early cuz Ray had to work this morning.
I also missed twIch, but his twin was there that I must have waved to about five times. That guy must have tought that I was a psycho.
Regret of the night, some guy asked me if I was free and I said "no" but what I should have said was "no, muthaa, I'm expensive" |

Well, now I'll be able to tell my grandkids that I saw Deep Dish :D
I really really tried to enjoy them. At times I did. Other times I was falling asleep. Deep Dish definitely had those flashes of brilliance that made them famous. Unfortunately it were only flashes.
One part of the set that I thoroughly enjoyed was played around 2AM I think.. It was really banging and extremely danceble. I totally loved it.
Deep Dish's mixing was really amazing. Damn, it was so great that I couldn't even distinguish when one track began, and other ended. Have to respect them at least for that !
My highlight of the night: The hottie in blue dress who kept dancing like crazy for 5 hours straight on the podium(for lack of better word) in front of Deep Dish. And.. Turns out she goes to University of Waterloo(that's where I study as well)!! Talk about school for geeks! I now know a total of 3 girls who go UW and love trance/prog. WOHOO :D
Not a lot of TAs came out for this one. Props to NightCreature(who went house hunting in Waterloo right after the party), StereoPrincess, Gamma, Heatscore, Halo20(haha, you seemed to have LOVED it man :D ), Mecha and HighSpirit. |

Holy , what a night!
It was too god damn crowded (I even told off Charles for that one), and it was just disgusting at times... they should've had this in the Kool Haus!
But hey, music wise, it was an amazing night... I got to chill with Sharam and Ali for a while (they are such great guys, wow!), and really enjoyed the first couple of hours by Sharam. And then, when Ali took over, oh my god... from the first song I knew he was gonna blow the roof off that place, and he did!!! Such an amazing song selection, amazing mixing, just great! At 5:30 when we were leaving the club was still full, and Ali looked like he was just warming up (even tho he started around 3)... simply said, I have found a new respect for these guys (like I didn't respect them before)!
Special K, you seemed like you enjoyed that night more than anyone...
Anyway, this one goes down as one of the better sets I've enjoyed in the GUV...
P.S. --> Does anyone else find that freak drag queen that screams all night (and he/she is always there) very annoying... I was gonna kick him in the face, but I didn't have enough space to even lift my leg. Oh well, next time... |

What a night
Got there around 11:30 place was empty
meet up with blue_neon, mg and rest of the crew.
Mark was warming up the crowd with some tribal, progressive and breaks. Around 12:40 sharam came out and man he was so loud that security told him to turn a little bit down. He start his set with some deep chillout house and after he went some banging hard progressive house and tribal. The stuff that he spun WAS NOT PROGRESSIVE TRANCE at all, it was pure banging hard Tribal with progressive house elements in there. The place was so pucked so I went to the stage where can I see him spinning. One thing that I noticed that he was getting some trouble with turntables, trechnical problem, so at the middle of his set he was spinning with his cds. And he just drop the stuff that I enjoyed dark, bouncy, progressive house with sweet females vocals.....
When ALI hit the decks it was pure dark stuff and I loved every second of that. The place was sooooooooo pucked unbelievable, but I managed to get some room on the stage, also I was managed to take on the biggest Global Underground posters home.
Highlight of the night was talking to sharam, meet Katie who gived me her phone number (some chick at the party) and of course grooving to some dirty progressive beats...
10/10

.. That dude pissed the hell out of me. I didn't run into him too much that night(thank God), but I actually had a small confrontation with the guy during halloween party at Guv.. What an idiot... |

That was a great set...I wish I could have stayed until the end but me & my friends were way too tired from trying to move around in that jungle...disgusting. Even the gold club was packed...there was nowhere to escape to except the patio.
I got there around 1am and heard Sharam dropping some great tunes (couldn't name any of them). I usually enjoy his sets a lot more than dubfire's 'cause he seems to play funkier (and louder) tunes. Dubfire's set was great too but it seemed like the crowd wanted more. Maybe I'm wrong but I think if dubfire went first the whole set would have flowed a lot better. But the tracks he played were incredible...I liked that tune that goes "Nobody listens to techno and disco"...I think it was played around 3:45.
Nice to see a couple TAs out as well (Durafei & Stereoprincess)..I thought more of you guys would come out! ;) |

Wow, the dish destroyed the place. Relentless and constanly driving, they more than delivered. For 10$ there is no way in hell anyone could complain.
I recognized 1/3 of the tracks, but I have no clue what most of them are called. They played their WHOLE Stockholm set minus 'Thrill Her'.
Who remembers....
- NOBODY LISTEN TO TECHNO!
- Coldplay
- 'Woke up this morning" (I think thats a No Doubt sample)
- "You are sleeping, you are sleeping, you don't want to sleep?"
- "I feel like I wanna be...inside of you...when the sun goes down"
- those two lush piano tracks, god those better be on the comp
- deeper love
- "attention, attention"
(wow as you can see, I know for song titles)
I give the dish 8/10, not perfect because of how crowded it was, and also the mixing at times was a little dodgy, wow. But I'm a picky bastard. I managed to catch Stereo Princess, Gamma, Tw1tch, Blue_Neon, Durafei and I think thats it. hah It was nice to see you guys out there. THE DISH!!! (here are some pics stolen from another board, heh)

Ok, one question... what time did they end?
I heard the guv closed at 7:30 from one person, and another person is telling me that it closed at 9am... and I dunno who to believe here (since both of them were f00ked up). Can anyone clear that up for me? |
|

| halo20 |
they went until 9
and nope they didn't play Timo Mass feat. Kelis - Help Me, not as far as I know anyways. |
