Danny Tenaglia at Park West last night

I don't know where to start about last evening. All I hope is that it doesn't get any worse the rest of the week. Get in line at Park West around 2:45am, wait in line for approx. 40 minutes, pay the 70 dollar cover charge (flyers said 35) and then don't get into the main room til 5:30am. There was a small room that they would shuffle you into at the bottom of the stairs. You would think that this was the first time the bouncers ever worked the club during the WMC. At one point we were stuck outside in the courtyard with no music or restrooms and they weren't letting people back into the club. It was the biggest cluster fuck I've ever experienced.

I understand this is the WMC, but the dance floor at 5:30am wasn't even that full! I've tried repeatedly to have a good time when I'm seeing Danny, but never to any avail. Ive heard about the legendary night with him and Carl Cox at Twilo that broke attendance records. I've heard about his marathon sets that last til 5:00 in the afternoons. But to me it seems that these types of things happen every time I go to see Danny. He seems to have a Jersey guido following down here at the conference and that type of crowd just doesn't do it for me. When we did get to the main room there was some groovy tunes playing, but nothing that could salvage the rest of the evening. And he was doing that annoying thing where he talks over the microphone. We left around 7:00am. This was Danny's last chance and I realized last night that he's not good enough to go through the trouble you go through to see him. (end rant)

Re: Danny Tenaglia at Park West last night

Yeah Tenaglia really seems to of fallen from grace. Its a shame because in the late 90's early 2000's he was brilliant but I've herd nothing good from him in a long time.

Has Tenaglia done a Walt Disney? Every time I see a picture of him, he look like he's had his head Cryogenically Frozen.

Re: Danny Tenaglia at Park West last night

Sorry to hear they got over on you, Tenaglia has been quite a bore as of late, those damn lights he waves around, plus that damn 30min tribal loop he throws in every two hours gets annoying, Wish ya better luck at some of the other shows.

#1189922Post 19 of 58

Re: Danny Tenaglia at Park West last night

Damn, sounds like a bad night. I don't think I could have stuck around for as long as you did in those conditions. I can't stand people talking over the top of the music.

#1189924Post 20 of 58

Re: Danny Tenaglia at Park West last night

He definetly got weird , last year i saw him at ultra playing some shitty music and doing this thing with a green flashlight , pointing it inside his mouth and then the motherfucker started dancing with the gogo dancers :shock::shock: ,

and shit man like if that wasnt enough he started convulsing on stage as if he was having a heart attack from the " great music" he was playing ,i felt so embarrassed to watch that shit, I remember goign out of the tent and thinking to myself i'm never seeing this douchebag again... ever :evil:

[quote=hulkhuss;727644]Yeah he has vaneers now... wasn't he at Space with Yoko Ono too?[/quote]

that was 2003 at the old space, i was there and yoko ono climbed up in the booth about 9 am with danny and belted out a high pitch squeal that was suppose to be singing for some track her and danny were working on. it brought the whole night to a standstill.

now i have had some great nights with danny back at vinyl in nyc. but as of late it just doesnt seem to be worth it.

christ on a bike, isn't that the truth? guy isn't pushing any decent new stuff. And even if he does, he puts out one mix every year (at best) is totally against recording live sets, has a very weak-sauce touring schedule, acts like a gd girl, and when you DO get to see him, it's like trying to hustle your way into an 18+ club in jersey, and when you get in, his antics just kill the mood for the serious music lover.

why Is this guy still talked about?

Neptune's baby, he has been replaced by Howells who does those Dig Deeper set, 8+ hrs sets now, now 20 but at least the entire eight are solid.

As for vinyl, I used to go quite frequently (2-3 fridays each month) and those were some damn good nights (especially after 6-7am ;) ), though towards the end of his residency there the 112 crew (ie. bill patrick, dennis rodgers, tom amoroso and matt licata) tore up the backroom and started putting him to shame.

So first she destroyed the Beatles, and now Danny Tenaglia. Because we all know he has had some awesome remixes, tracks and mix cd's out there.

Yeah and I too would NEVER pay more than 30$ to see a dj. And at that kind of price I better get a free bottle of water.8)

#1190264Post 34 of 58

Re: Danny Tenaglia at Park West last night

People here in Denver seem to go nuts for him. Never seen him live, but you guys are making me second guess checking him out... :what

#1190267Post 35 of 58

Re: Danny Tenaglia at Park West last night

If he was in my town I would still check him out. I just wouldn't expect to much

That's the extent of her musical talent. I remember watching a video on youtube of john & chuck berry playing an old bluesy song and she randomly starts doing that high pitched tribal screaming thing over the top. Who the hell thinks that is in anyway appropriate for the song?!

Yoko was just hanging out with Tenaglia there in the VIP section :lol:

#1190898Post 38 of 58

Re: Danny Tenaglia at Park West last night

yah, everyone i talked to was raving about Space this year which is pretty standard I suppose actually...the system there blah blah, but $150 for entry is a lot, I agree. Fantastic time, regardless of all the moments of disdain over the customer service...

the guido's are funny!!!!
