WOW!!! just got home from nyc, i had a REALLY GREAT time!!!:D
shout out to all TAs that made it out last night: tatgirl, drizzt81, trancer, pyro, enigmat, butterfly, lunasea? (are you the one we went to breakfast with? if so, nice to meet you, glad you got to meet up with us at breakfast, and i look forward to partying with you again!)
Noel Sanger was a little bit of a sleeper. good tunes, just couldn't really dance to them. two notable tracks he played were:
conjure one-tears from the moon
....-.... (shoot, nathalie asked him the name of the track, he told her, she told me, i forgot...)
there weren't too many people at the club, and everyone was kinda standing around during sanger's set.
Mario Piu takes command around 4. i've never seen him before or heard any of his live sets, not sure exactly what to expect.
i loved how his set progressed, with lots of new BxR tracks, a lot of cd-r's, and many killer tracks.:eyespop: although the club wasn't packed, the energy that mario created was amazing. so many people were dancing and having a really great time.:D
since nathalie was up in the booth with mario taking pictures, video taping, etc. she has a lot more of the tracks he dropped. the ones that i could id:
taub 2002
joy don't stop
ira
argh...why is my memory failing me now? 3 hrs sleep? 4.5 hr drive? ok, alex, john, greg, tom, nathalie, please help. i'll fill in more if i can remember.;)
i was dancing so hard at the end, completely lost myself in the pounding tunes. legs and feet now killing, but well worth it! anyone who didn't come out last night missed a whole lot of fun. next time, next time...
special thanks to: nathalie (need i explain why?), caroline (please come out with us more, your positive energy and attitude is infecting!), and greg for his wonderful hospitality (letting 3 girls take over his apartment for the night), i can't thank you three enough! oh yes, and mario...
it was pretty cool, after the club the TAs got to treat Mario to breakfast in the village. :) we took a few pics at breakfast and afterwards, check mario's web site in the future to see them!
overall, one of the best weekends ever had in NYC, thanks everyone! |

yeah i had a fairly decent night. i haven't laughed that hard in a while. it was a very thin crowd and none of the regulars (except me and my crew) were there but i didn't care. we got there and i was really feeling sanger's set. piu came on and i was pleasantly surprised. the reviews i read of his recent set at GC were horrible so i expected little from him. i thought his set was solid and enrgetic. i didn't know it would be so trancy, though it was good trance so i was pretty happy with it. was that 2 electro tracks he threw down towards the end? :conf: i lost myself dancing for a few minutes there. i checked out the arcade for a while to for native theory, i believe, and they were sounding great too.
all in all it was a great night musically and it had a nice vibe. i met some new ppl and saw a few i haven't seen in a while. glad i went. i think i am going to have to skip zabiela next week but hoepfully some of you will make it to howells the 21st. |

The Real Review
I arrived at arc around 3 am to see about 30 or 40 people in the club. This was probably due to the fact that it was FREEZING outside. Noal Sanger through down a great progressive set to warm up for Piu. At 4:15 Piu gets on the Decks. He opens with some energetic progressive tracks. About 2 tracks into it me messed up the mixing of a track But besides that his set was FLAWLESS I am not great with Id's either but just to mention it for tom he played a track called Magic Impulse. ing awsome!!!!!! and then Taub !!!!! :crazy: He stayed on until 6:30
Piu you did a great job man
Well at this point me and tom were getting ready to leave and go to gregs house. On my way out I see my good freind Daniela at the door of Arc. She trys to get into Arc to apoligize to Piu for missing his set (she knows him personally) Well they said no, but on our way over to gregs we get a call from greg saying that him caryn and Natalie are going to a Cafe' with Mario. Holy :) well the 3 of us rush our asses over there to meet with them.
Mario since I know your going to be reading this I want to thank you for being suck a cool guy and hanging with us after arc. Your set really made me see what an awsome dj you are. I wish you the best luck and hope to see you back in Ny real soon.
Natalie,Melisa greg, caryn,Alex and Natelies young looking friend ;) I had a great time with you guys. For such a small crowd we really brought the vibe up in that place.
ps. Greg thanks for letting us relax at your apartment. We couldnt walk after that set. MARIO killed me :happy2: :D |

Dammit, im a really big Mario Piu fan i wish more people would turn out to events like this. He really kicks ass. Unicorn, and Techno harmony is mario at his best!
Hopefully he comes to Toronto and there is a huge turnout
Thanx to Tatgirl for making Mario leave a message on my cell phone.
I was a little hung over when i finally heard it and all i hear i a guy speaking proper italian giving his "saluti" & wishing a merry christmas. skiped back to the begining as realized it was Mario Piu! very cool. Just then the alcohol headache faded..........for 5 seconds so i slept for a few more hours. :rolleyes:
Hi to Caryn as well and all those that hit the party with Caryn and Natalie! Good to know some people got to enjoy Mario. Deserves MUCH more credit!

Glad you guys had a good time, though it may not have been the most top notch in your books =P. The DC crowd had a great time with Ferry though.
I haven't been up to NY at all yet. I'll have to check it out sometime, and meet all of you NY TA =P.
Btw Greg, good job with the 3 girls in the apartment thing :D :D |
