Club: Markus Schulz & Nu NRG @ Spirit

We got to Spirit around 1:30ish. By then, Markus Schulz was already in to his set. We met up with Sean, JDC, Kenny, and was surprised to see Brian Voo there.

At the beginning, Markus was alright, very proggy so it was kind of hard to dance with. I started the night out with Grey Goose and Red Bull which held me until 2:50 when Nu NRG came on. I knew they were going to performing live, but I wasn't sure how live they would be. They had keyboards and synths and powerbooks set up for their set.

Once they started going, it was on. I would have to say this was the best set I've ever been to. Every track was just as good or better than the previous. The lights and the music drove the crowd and got everyone really pumped. It was hard to believe that they only performed for an hour. If you like trance, you definately missed out on one of the best sets.

Markus came back on around 4 and picked up right where Nu NRG left off. This was a much harder, faster, darker Markus. He took big names tracks and played around with them.

As 5 rolled around, I knew we had to leave soon. But the set was continually getting better. But alas, we left at 5:15.

It was an awesome night of dancing and trance. There was plenty of room to move around and there was plenty of cool air from the AC. Hands down, the best night out yet.
