Victor Calderone is incredible. Junior Vasquez used to be my hero 'till I heard Victor live for the first time. I had seen him in Miami (where he is so loved) but never in NY and let alone in such a big party. The Hammerstein was definately "off the hook". I thought the accustics would be better but when he came on it just didn't matter. I have to admit that I was so hyped up with that party that my expectations were too high. Don't get me wrong, the party was great. The stage was awesome (did live up to the masquerade theme), although I was hoping for more "fondling", masks and some decorations throughout the place. I was expecting to come into sort of like a dungeon inside a french castle. It was just the Hammerstein. Even though, get wait till next year.
