what can i say about this event.... system looks a lot nicer with the slight renovation. the bar at the back cuts down sketchiness at least 80%. quite a nice touch.
as we first arrive, i am shocked at how empty it was. it wasn't actually empty, just empty for system with a headliner. so all in all, it was the perfect amount of people. it didn't get too hot and you could dance just about anywhere without being bumped into. i guess i was just expecting to have the place rammed to the point of me going insane like it usually is.
so we start off by checking out jeanine hopper in the back room. no one was really in there, which was such a shame. she was wicked. so many vocals!!! absolute treat. so she played there until about 1:30. then it was off to check out junior sanchez. now i wasn't expecting much and for the first little while it was fairly boring as i was expecting, so i dipped into the vip room to catch some sweet tunes ranging from old michael jackson tunes to new house tracks. then jeanine hopper switched over to the decks and laid down some more sweet vocals. i took a break for a bit in there and went back to the main room to find out that junior stopped sucking. he had some wicked tunes. mixing was pretty good. nothing spectacular, but it was pretty good and i was drunk, so i was a whole lot less picky. i was nicely surprised by his set.
for those that know me, they know i don't dance very often, mostly because i'm usually too drunk to have any sort of balance, and partially because i forgot how. but somehow i managed to muster enough coordination and guts to shake my ass around the dance floor looking like a tool for most of the night. so if you saw a goofy looking guy in a baby blue short sleeve shirt dancing like an idiot, it was me.
to make this long story short, it was a great night of drinks, tunes and plenty of dancing space. i definitely had a blast.
