last night was our first trip to godskitchen. i had no predjudices till i got there and saw the marquee, which read: "gods kitchen." i thought, "this place has been open for a few weeks, and they haven't figured out that it's one word? not a good sign..." but when we got inside, the opening dj was actually pretty good - not the standard "when's the real dj coming on?" crap - and we liked the layout. the rooftop is really open, giving it a very refreshing feel, and the view is of all of hollywood --- just gorgeous. well, maybe it is for me more than other people; i miss the city and it made me feel at home. but my friends liked that the sky was right above our heads; being up so high was exhilarating. and if the place had ever gotten too hot, it would have been perfect for a cool-down. but there were no climate-control issues, the dancefloor is big and open, there are couches on the side of the room, and the wait at the bar wasn't terrible, though the drinks were ENORMOUSLY overpriced. my only complaint was that the floor provides too much resistance to your shoes when you wanna dance --- kinda like your high school gym floor. but that's minor. then, who should smack me on the ass but our own shortystar ! i didn't realize she works for godskitchen. but she always makes a party more fun with her sparkling little self; i'm so glad we ran into you, shorty, as always ! but on to seb, a great set. he had some pounding beats and loads of chunky basslines --- stuff that forces one to dance. he gave us no choice. vocals to keep us listening closely, strong melodies, too... he really had it all... well-rounded. and they were selling his not-yet-released 2-cd album for only $15. sheesh. i don't know what else to say, but that he retained his place on my top ten with flying colors . my best friend turned to me last night at some point and said, "i'm in love with seb fontaine." i don't know if i'd go that far, but there certainly was love in my heart and feet last night .
