trainwrecking?

i listen pretty closely for that stuff and i only sorta heard it twice, but those werent trainwrecks in the traditional sense.

Armin plays with his monitors way up, using them as extra speakers. this keeps the main speakers down, preventing the hearing loss and distortion most shows normally experience. When he turned his monitiors down to talk to people, it sounded liek he turned the whole system down, but he did not.

i was drunk and i heard trainwreck at least 5 times in the last half an hour....

and the whole turning his monitor down.. it was like he was shutting the whole left side off... not a good idea........

seen armin 5 times...my favorite as I love the guy..but last night by far the most dissapointing set...soo slow, tracks playing out forever, and not enough bombs....a few tracks, that 3rd one in particular, were good but the set was missing something.....seeing how the dancfloor began to empty at 2, i guess i wasn't alone

nice production though....and armin, next time turn down the autographs, turn up the good ;)

He didn't turn the monitors down independently, Veni. When he turned them down, they were both down, left and right. You must've been really drunk, cuz Armin didn't trainwreck more than once. He couldn't have been that drunk, he seemed perfectly coherent after his set.

It was an awesome show, to be sure. Took tons of pictures and hopefully some good video shots. Armin graced us with some awesome material once more aswell as an interview much to our delight, proving once more that he is one of the most gracious and easy going superstar djs out there.

well, armin is my fucking hero - I preferred his set last year, he's beginning to slow things down.

I heard two trainwrecks, once he blantently knew about it, and the other was some dope throwing his tshirt onto the decks.

I highly enjoyed it, the music, the people (well, some), the atmosphere.. I havent had that much fun at a club since Johan Gielen and the thrillseekers.

Good to meet Veni~C! Thanks for coming with me gusto, nice to see mydnite again, ricey, and of course angela :)

Thanks for the party twisted, he has been missed, and will be missed again until the next time.

Daymn! So much fun. Despite having my lil operation that morning, and being in some pretty intense pain, the amount of fun I had far surpassed it. Yeah, I heard ONE trainwreck just before A&B - No One On Earth. My highlight of the night was definately yelling with BT "CAMMUNICATION" and him giving us the thumbs up, n motioning that he had it que'd up. So mint. Great seeing everyone having a lot of fun, and some happy birthday's going around. More to come tomorrow I'm sure. Cheers guys, fun times at their best.

OMFG!! I had an indescribable amount of fun. INDESCRIBABLE. Armin BROUGHT IT to Vancouver. Yeah you heard me, BROUGHT IT. Haaaaa! The absolute best night so far (aside from Apex) this year. Who liked my white furry booties hey?!! Got some wicked, kick ass photos...Check out this photo!!!!! .... the rest in my gallery...http://www.fnk.ca/gallery/showgaller...00&ppuser=4899 Trainwreck, shmainwreck ~ blah blah. Amazing!!

P.S. Half way through the night my camera glitched out and now every picture has these 2 lines down the middle. NOT happy about this. For no apparent reason either. It's still under warranty (effing $700 better be!). So sorry about the lines guys. They could be photoshopped out but I'm too lazy.

Wicked 1st party in Van...

Well, last night was an amazing time. It was my first big party in Vancouver, and also one of the funnest night out in a long while. Fuck what anyone says about the scene here compared to Toronto, this city can PARTY!!!

It was cool meeting a few of you, check out a pic of me w/ SquiLa before the party, so you'll know what I look like for next time, here: http://www.fnk.ca/gallery/showgalle...500&ppuser=4899

I also passed out a few CDs last night, so if you got one, enjoy.....

Peace,
Rich

sorry dawg, but his "playing with the monitor" was total shit. I watched guy cut the left, start to chitchat with some old bird on stage, then realised what was happening.. still chitchatting. Compaired to his last visit (Goldseries), that set was loosy goosy!

ummm no... i was NOT that drunk. ask anyone i was with.... armin was either hammered or on drugs.... and to the trained ear....he was screwing up alot.... mabie u didnt notice... but me and alot of other people who know how to spin sure did....

also... i dont think he realized how much difference it made when he did turn down the monitors... like all the people in front couldnt hear the music.and im pretty sure it was him doing it since i was standing right there when everytime he switched the monitor off or down or whatever he was doing...

FUCK i wish i could have gone.... i feel so bad. I was really sick and still pretty sick. Neal says this was the greatest show on earth and i was stupid for missing it. From reading these posts it sounds like i should have gone out even though i was sick. Well maybe there is next year.

You must've been really stupid, cuz Armin didn't play at the level I had thought he would when I stepped into that building.
