Two weeks ago I explained how the Remix Nation crew was going to be in Las Vegas, and that the Marquee invited us to attend their events! However, due to prior arrangements, we were only able to make it to two of their shows. These two shows were arguably the two best that were performed over the weekend, but there is no question that every event over Labor Day Weekend could have been just as spectacular. In my opinion, the main event of the weekend had to be Avicii and Cosmic Gate, keeping heavy note how Chuckie and Fatboy Slim did not disappoint at the day club.

Avicii & Cosmic Gate – Marquee Nightclub 9/3/11

When we arrived to the Marquee on Saturday night, we knew we were in for a real treat that night. As you walked into the club, you could immediately feel the energy in the air as everyone was so excited to see Avicii. If I am correct, Blake Jerrel made a surprise visit and actually opened for him. Thinking this was only going to be Avicii and Cosmic Gate, I was in no way expecting to get the chance to also see Blake Jerrel.

Around 12:30, Avicii hit stage and caught everyone off guard! Everyone thought that Avicii was going to be closing that night, but I guess they decided to bring him out early. The second he got up on stage, we all rushed to our table which happened to be located right next to the booth.

Being my 8th time seeing Avicii, I couldn’t wait to see what he had in store for everyone that night. After a while I found myself on the private balcony, looking down over the entire venue of the Marquee. Having been to the Marquee several times, this was a real treat for me because it gave me a whole different view and retrospect of this incredible club. The guy next to me was controlling all of the lights for the Marquee on his iPad!
Avicii’s set was pretty much flawless. He was playing hits like “Calling”, “Pressure”, and even a remix to “Starry Eyed”. Staying true to his roots, he was playing all of his own hits like “Fade into Darkness”, “Seek Bromance”, and many others. Its an incredible experience seeing this guy perform and its one you will never forget. In just over a year, he has easily become the hottest and fastest rising star in the industry and continues to sell out clubs and venues everywhere.

Chuckie & Fatboy Slim- Marquee Dayclub 9/4/11

Walking into the Marquee Day Club, I didn’t know what to expect because I had never been there before. Regardless, knowing the two headliners were going to be Chuckie and Fatboy Slim, it was a guaranteed blast! The song I walked in to happened to be the anthem of the weekend… this was Chuckie’s new track “What Happens In Vegas”. It’s been one of my favorite tracks the past few weeks, so hearing it live was awesome. Heading into the dayclub was mayhem; people were legitimately partying like there was no tomorrow!
The stage was actually very special for LDW, and it was built over the pool, making this one hell of a pool party! One thing you have to know is that this guy knows how to party… and Chuckie was dropping banger after banger. As his set was coming to a close, a very old man walked by me. Sure enough, I looked to see who it was and it was Fatboy Slim. Seeing a legend like Fatboy Slim was truly an honor for everyone in attendance. This guy has made a serious name for himself over the years and continues to do so. Not knowing what to expect from a set by him, I stayed for a while to watch it. He perfectly transgressed the party into a rowdy afternoon.

I’d like to thank the Marquee Nightlcub and Dayclub for showing us a phenomenal time! If you are ever in Vegas, I highly recommend you checking out this venue because it’s easily one of the best venues in the world!
