diezel56gd Posted November 27 Report Share Posted November 27 what a night ata avalon..awesome set from the legend himself. no cheeze whatsoever, that i can remember. i think he spun for about 2 or 2 1/2 hrs. the club was saying all along that he was gonna spin 4 hrs but of course to no avail. anyhow, great vibe all night and a really good crowd. oakie rekindled a little belief in me once again that he can still lay it down. peace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earthling Posted November 27 Report Share Posted November 27 2 hours:confused: WTF is that shit:confused: Nice to be such a money hungry bitch and not give your fans a nite of music. Thats bullshit and people put up with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djinnom Posted November 27 Report Share Posted November 27 I dont think he's spun more than a 2-3 hour set in NYC in 3 years. I think the last time was at hammerstein ballroom. I believe that was a 4 hour set.Did he do the "god" pose again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great time.. werd up!! yeah last night oakenfold definitely went off.. he took to the decks at about 1:09 and i left around 4:10 and he was still going (i think) could be wrong but he was going in to breakbeats, my legs couldn't take it anymore.. he started playing some harder stuff, definitely not on the cheesy side for all the oakenfold haters out there.. The crowd was a little on the weak side but it's oakenfold so i guess that is expected.. I like what they did with limelight it looked great!! Aside from the lack of ass it was a great night.. cant wait to see bad boy bill tear that place up dec 6th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djianh Posted November 28 Report Share Posted November 28 My take on last night:Oakenfold was very good, not excellent but very good nonetheless. Was it worth $40?? - those who were there can judge for themselves. He did play about 2 1/2 hours from approx. 1 - 3:30 AMSome of the tunes included:Benny Bennasi - Satisfaction and the new Who will save UsMotorcycle - As the Rush Comes (got the biggest crowd reaction of the night)Underworld - Dark and Long (Dark Train)! Glad to see that a classic from 1994 can sound just as fresh in 2003 along with.....Li Kwan - Point Zero (remix)! - can anyone provide info about this (for anyone who doesn't know what this tune is, the original is the 3rd tune on the Goa Mix)Underworld - Born Slippy (Oakenfold Remix)Ameoba Assassin - Piledriver (Grayed Out Remix)G Club - Guitarra G remix? (it used that same guitar sample)No Annie Lenox, Justin Timberlake or Madonna remixes...No Bunkka material... (although I listened to the CD both on the way there and on the way back)Paul had a set of recurring visuals going on during his set that included shots of NYC with some crawling text at the bottom about conversing the planet along with the person on the cover of the Southern Sun and Starry Eyed Surprise singles (UK) Yes Oakie did the Jesus Christ pose more times than I could count....Regarding the other DJs - John Debo was good although the tribal/progressive house really isn't my cup of teaEddie Bang was also pretty good as well - he got a good crowd reaction with his next to last tune before Oakenfold came on .. and then after Oakenfold's set - he spun a good set of prog. house that kept going from deep to trance-likeAvalon was packed and the crowd on the dancefloor was very up for it. If it seemed weak, it was only because the floor was PACKED with very little room to really dance and move around. However, they did open up the entire club with the exception of the VIP areas at the top to help spread out the crowd. Though the crowd did get rowdy at times - two fights on the main floor - one involving a guy's face getting busted up big time by a beer bottle (unfort. I happened to be right near all this) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wallflour Posted November 28 Report Share Posted November 28 actually he did a 2-hour set, from 1 am to 3 amToo bad there wasn't a proper ending - no encore or acknowledgement from the crowd (except for people clearing out after Oakie finished). The next DJ just mixed into his set. (the last track Oakie played was POS - remember (summer sun) , which is also on Tiesto's Nyana CD set )People who were right in front of the booth, so unable to see the DJ, probably didn't know that a different DJ went on. I guess Eddie Bang was that good. Eddie started off with Running Up that Hill , and played many tunes that I think (but I could be wrong) I've heard Markus Schulz play on the Global DJ Broadcast... speaking of which, check out PVD and Ronski Speed on this Sunday's show!I heard Oakie once did a 4-hour set at Centro-Fly 1-2 years ago, but too bad I missed it.
