Well i just woke up so i figure ill post about the night last night. I guess we got there at around 10pm, we waited in line for about 15 minutes then we were in. This was BY FAR the best i have ever seen riverside set up. I couldnt believe the amount of lights that were set up, and they even had 2 lazers, Plaza parties usually dont even have 2 of them. The stage looked really good, the DJ was about 5 feet higher then usual. Kickass sound system, thw massive speaker blocks on either side of the DJ. This was the loudest riverside party ive been to in at least a year. When i got hom my ears were ringing....soooo pounding. The second room wasnt to hot but with the dj's that were in the mainroom it didnt really matter. and YES all the headliners showed up.
DJ Morgan spun a pretty entertaining set. All really raw sounding Nu-Nrg. Ive seen him a couple times before and this was no where near the best ive seen him spin. Lots of sloppy mixing, 1 BAD trainwreck, and he spun back the record at the end of his mixes at least 10 times throughout his set. Next up was Marco V. I was just blown away from his set. Sooooo good. He played really hard and really fast. I think he played for around 2 and a half hours. Mixing was pretty much flawless and his records just destroyed that place. If anyone sort of remembers the tracks he played i need to find out the name of the track he played before "Trance and acid". This set was probably in my top5 for all the sets i have ever seen in vancouver. I didnt stay around for Jurgen as i was really tired, sort of sounded like it was going to be pretty cheesey from what i heard at the start of his set. so i guess we left at around 4:30
You have no idea how impressed i am with Shybrothers. Let me tell ya it was a VERY small crowd, riverside was only about half way full. I have no idea how the managed to bring down all 3 of there headliners plus have such an amazing setup. any other company in Van would have cut the headliners and the lights if ticket sales were so low. I doubt they even broke even on this party.
As for the crowd itself...like ALWAYS.....what a ing mess. People were ED, Man these new party kids dont mess around when it comes to their drugs. I couldnt believe how ing high EVERYONE in that building was. I wouldnt be suprised if the three of us that went were the ONLY sober ones in the building. But i guess thats how all partys are these days so we cant hold that against the promoters.
My only problem was that bottles of Water were 5 bux. I have never seen water for more then 3 bux even at the plaza. Pop was 2 bux so i bought a can of sprite and filled it with water....hehe im a bit of a cheapskate.
Anyway all round a kickass party, wish i brought a camera so you guys could have seen how good riverside looked. I think the shybrothers are planning a BIG party coming up, ill be looking forward to it for sure. |

this was my first rave and i dunno if it's normal, but what was annoying were the old asian people...they were prolly the most ed up outta everyone there...and there were so many of them! i have nothing against asian people, i myself am chinese. but ...when you people that could be your parents and even grandparents all ed up and , it's mighty disturbing.
but overall i had a great time, Marco V rocked. Jurgen sounded pretty cheesy, although mixing silence on top of for an angel sounded pretty cool. |

| Ya the asians are normal in the Vancouver rave scene. Ive been going to partys for almost 4 years and its the same ed up asians at EVERY party, they usually take over the front. They usually keep to themselves but its really creepy when they get all friendly and |
