RTW: p27 - DJ Sammy @ Velfarre

Finally I was going to Velfarre - 2nd Largest club and venue of the best trance events in Tokyo, and tonight special guest DJ SAMMY!
Yvette and I rocked up just before midnight only to find out his set was almost finished?! WTF!?
We payed our 3000￥ anyway and entered the elevator to go down to the main floor. Suddenly the lights are flashing with music pumping from the roof! and some dude starts break-dancing in the center! Awesome! You know the club will go off when the elevator does!!
Entering the huge, not-overly-crowded dance-floor, the sound was good with lights and huge displays. And finally a sign that at least some Japanese girls can dance =) Even if half the paid podium dancers couldn’t!

After we shook hands with DJ Sammy he wrapped up the set and that was all we saw of him! In Aus, the main DJ NEVER comes on till after midnight! 2 more DJ’s continued the trance theme until 1.30am at least.
Hang on, 1.30?
Velfarre: 2nd biggest club in Tokyo? Check.
Trance night? Check.
And its finishing at 1.30?! Only to re-open as psych-trance at 4am with a new 4000￥ entrance fee! How do they get away with it?!

So we were in search of another club, Yvette worked her magic and after varied information we were given directions to Vanilla.
If you thought the trains got packed here, try this club. We just squeezed through the RnB to the dance room that included heavily remixed Pop! Phasing around 3.30, we bit the bullet for a taxi home.

And sleep. Finally.
