I like loud music, I like many DJ sets of the two protagonists, I like it when there&#8217;s a “connection” between the DJ and the crowd. Aside from the fact that indeed the music was loud, what bugged me most was:</p>
<ul>
<li>not enough room for dancing, too crowded (yes, I think that’s possible)</li>
<li>didn&#8217;t like most of the DJ sets as they had no “soul” IMHO</li>
<li>the whole event didn&#8217;t have the “spirit” that was there some years ago</li>
</ul>
<p>Maybe this is the way it is when you are in your 30s&#8230;so what&#8217;s the conclusion here for me?</p>
<p>I won&#8217;t go to such a big and heavily advertised event next time (at least if its not the VIP area, haha). I think the more interesting stuff happens at the little clubs where there’s a direct connection between the people and the artist (and that is something that is very important for making my <strike>day</strike>night).</p>
<p>Thanks to clubfeeling.de I won the tickets for the evening, so I was not even having to pay for it *nice* (nothing is more annoying than thinking: “Man, we&#8217;ve paid 30 bucks each, so we gotta stay, although the party doesn’t really rock.”) &#8230;they have some better pics too, in case you want to <a href="http://www.clubfeeling.de/pictures/20070414-vandit-night-party-paul-oakenfold-arena-berlin/" rel="external">take a look</a> or two.</p>
