Originally posted by DJ Eddie Lee My very first post..... I had a great time warming up the room for Mauro and hopefully a lot of people had fun. I've been reading a few things bashing our club in particular and I guess I took offense to that. Let me begin by saying NO NIGHTCLUB IS PERFECT. There are bound to be knuckleheads, meatheads, morons, etc, that take away from the vibe of every nightclub. That's just how it goes. Don't complain so much! Come out, hear the music, do a wiggle, and make the best out it.

Oh sweet, Eddie Lee, you're the only thing that made the first hour or so of my night good when I went to see Jules at Avalon, because he sucked... but I tip my hat to you.

Oh and no, sorry, I won't come out and hear the music and do a wiggle, because there is no room to wiggle, it's too hot to wiggle, and my ears hurt so much I wanna put a corkscrew in my eardrum and turn it clockwise veerrryyy slowly. It's hard to enjoy even the best DJ's when the club sucks as much as Avalon does.

Originally posted by trancaholic Some random questions that, for some reason, popped into my mind during the evening: - Why do they put VIP-bracelets on *everyone* at the door? And why were *nobody* checked when entereing the VIP-area? Some kind of complementary ego-boosting service???

I beleive those are actually 21+ bracelets. No?

Originally posted by trancaholic - I had carefully added my full name to the velvet-guestlist before going there. When I came to the guestlist guy, I said "Hi. I'm on the velvet-guestlist.". He looked appraisingly at me, and then, with no further discussion, nodded knowingly and handed me a "reduced"-ticket. Why would a great wizard of such awesome clairvoyant powers choose to work for a joint like Avalon?

Totally with you on that one. Now try to get in from Spider Club entrence there you will find the wizard of all that will hypnotize you with questions about how you found out about the guestlist, how you know the promoter, what does he looks like, how long you know him, etc...Honestly I think hosts in NYC suck. ALL OF THEM!!!

Originally posted by trancaholic - Why don't Avalon hire a bunch of eskimos with harpoons, to drag away all the non-dancing elements from the dancefloor? I swear to God, about 30-40% of the dancefloor was filled with people who were either smoking, making out, chatting, staring, or (worst) sleeping. What's the matter with such people?

Oh GOD this is a problem EVERYWHERE...IN THE UNITED STATES!!!! Personally I blame bad drugs. But thats me.

Originally posted by trancaholic - (Closely related.) Why are areas such as narrow staircases, exits, and restroom entrances such attractive places to have long debates, preferrably in big groups, on whether to go back or forth?

See above (closely related). Smaller spaces more people rubbing on you. Also gives a chance to little boys touch some boobies and some booties.

Originally posted by trancaholic - Why would anybody pay $25+ to be at an event like this, only to try to pick up?

Question of all times. In fact WHY WOULD ANYONE GO TO A NIGHTCLUB TO PICK UP???

Originally posted by trancaholic - Why do people wear sunglasses in a club? It's like 80-year olds having sex with condoms.

See comment about drugs...Furthermore if the lightning system in a club is too much for your eyes consider switching the hobby. I beleive that in a place as dark as a nightclub you actually stress your eyes more by wearing sunglasses.

Originally posted by trancaholic - Why don't Avalon invest in some decent air-conditioning? That room was extremely hot, and the air was just hanging there. You had to dance constantly to keep in contact with sub 100 degrees air.

I really dont recall Avalon being so hot inside. But then again I was never there for Tiesto...Summer time though management should really address this comments since it CAN lead to more serious problems such as fires.

Originally posted by trancaholic - What is it that automatically grants someone with a glow stick plenty of space on a dancefloor? They're not dangerous, right?

No they are not dangerous however you WILL step away if you dont want to get smacked on the head with it. Although I did notice that the quality of raving significantly declined in recent years. Tennaglia's war on glowsticks actually paid off. Funny fact Non-US djs actually LOVE US glowstick ravers...I read sometime ago in Mixmag that one big name-dj (forgot who) actually never seen anything like that on his gigs.

Originally posted by trancaholic - Is there something more annoying, than guys pushing through the crowded dancefloor by using their girlfriend as a bumper?

Ahh the infemous "crowd surfers." Apparently we are not the only country that suffers from this plague. See comments about drugs above the reason behind crowd srufers. AND BTW LADIES THIS IS FOR YOU...YOU ARE MUCH MORE RUDE THAN ANY MEATHEAD when u push through the crowd.

Originally posted by trancaholic - Why does everyone hate Avalon?

It is a club that you hate to love and love to hate...

Originally posted by vtec junkie Thats so true. The first time I went to Avalon was NYE for Sasha two years ago and the system was mint....Sasha was using the Rane. But the second time I went for Ferry the system was total garbage. I never could understand why some of the best DJs out there are so fucking scared to use a rotary mixer.

I think you were too to notice the system at sasha. Cause it was off then too..

Ah - would explain it, yes. I guess the "VIP" on them would mean something like "Venue-Intoxicated Person" or "Vritten to Induce Perplexion"...
