There are two DJ stages with the main stage known as the Sapporo Stage after its sponsor Sapporo Beer. Place was already pretty crowded when I arrived around 8PM. |
DJ Kris Tin (CDN) was doing some Tech House when I got there. |
It was 11F° at the outset but no one seemed to give it a bother! |
Beware the abominable snowmen who thrive in this weather! |
Over on the alternative Videotron Stage, DJ The Rawsoul (CDN) was pounding out Techno. |
Not that many people here as everyone came to see the headliner! |
So back at the main stage, just in time to hear him open with his namesake "Oh Yes, Oh Yes"! |
The legend, DJ Carl Cox (GB)! |
Sold out crowd of around 9,000! And if I understood what I was told correctly, not the first sellout in Igloofest history but the first time it was sold out in advance of the event! |
Jammed as far as the eye could see! |
Back over to the Videotron Stage to see DJ Miss Me (LAO / B). |
Originally from Laos and then Belgium, I believe she's now residing here in Montreal! |
Miss Me booming out a techno remix of Donna Summer's "I Feel Love". |
Around the Igloofest grounds, ice bars! |
Ice sculptures! |
Logo store. No t-shirts but plenty of beanies! |
Food is available! The bars stayed busy will full-liquor service and plenty of Sapporo Beer tall boys! |
OK, as midnight approached, back to the Sapporo main stage! |
Now 7F°, no one was leaving! |
I came because I've never seen Carl Cox before. His only gig in Orlando was years ago at Senso Supperclub and he's never been back! |
Weaving between House, Tech House & Techno, his set mixed songs with and without vocals to great effect! |
All with some of that chatter he's famous for! |
