My story is that I met Ferry Corsten in a backstage of his DJ gig in Korea back in 2004. At that time, He came to Korea as a part of Heineken tour. There is an equalivalent of tranceaddict.com back in Korea. And I am a part of that group. Luckily, an interview between my group and Ferry got set up. And I was an translator for that moment. Oh my. Ferry! It was so cool to see Star DJ in front of my face!
Erick Marillo asking me at a loft afterhour party about a year ago, "How much you charging for those chicks?" and me looked back and said, "They work for drugs and drugs alone."
(I still get those comments all the time: last time it was last weekend)
Should I go ahead and tell you guys a story with me and Ferry Corsten and illegal drinking? Say aye or nay..
aye!
Here we go
Its April 2003, I was 20 years old at the time, Ferry is spining at the old Glow @ Club Insomnia here in Washington DC. The set was great, Ferry started with the usual Nothing (93 Returning Mix) He spun til about 4:45am.
During the set, he came out to give out Ligaya vinyl, but the second time he came out to shake people's hand, he accidentally kicked someone vodka drink onto my shirt. I was pissed. As soon as Ferry saw that, he felt bad. So he told one of the Glow employee to hand me a free drink. I took it, but I gave him the signature that I was underage at the time. No one cared. I thanked Ferry. I blew him some kisses, in a manly way of course. A couple minutes later, I went up to the booth to hang with him, as soon as I came up, he said "I am terribly sorry for that", and I said, "It's okay." It was a great night!!!

| Originally posted by DJ Eco I was having a conversation with my boy Matt (mfelner29 on here) about past experiences with DJs and stuff. I figured a lot of people on here are promoters, or in charge of events, etc., so this will be a funny post for you to talk about your "night with the DJ" when you brought him over.... I guess I'll start here on the round-table panel discussion haha... I've gotta say, my time with Martin Roth is filled with such good and funny memories. Right from the first hour of me and my friend driving him from the airport, we were on our way from JFK to Manhattan and we passed and absolutely HUGE cemetary, not sure which one it is, but it's at least a half mile long, at the very least, and right near whatever highway that was. He goes (in his funny PVD-ish German accent) "Wow, that is quite amazing, I must say... I've got to say, fuck the New York City skyline, this is really something amazing" and he was turning around in his chair like a kid looking at the whole cemetary haha.... 20 minutes later, we're in midtown and talking about German parties. He's in his 30s so he's been to just about every massive German even ever to have gone down. So we talk about Vandit parties and I'll never forget the awkwardness of this convo. He starts describing the Vandit nights and says "You would not believe the spirit of the crowd, it is absolutely massive (like Germans seem to say a lot, it seems!)... There are people screaming Vandit! Vandit! and holding signs and pictures and posters and FLAGS too! It is like a Nazi demonstration, hahaha!" (my friend Matt is Israel Jewish haha either way, it was funny, you hadda be there). |
i remember back in like 02 0r 3 p.v.d in store at virgin records nyc, i brought along members of mayday-10 in 1 to get signed as i approach paul he gives me a great big hug and was like wow this records old ....made my day
ah geez... i'm stuck home workin on a paper so i figure i'd contribute to this thread while i'm "taking a break" (ie, wasting more time..)
2002, i'm in london for an internship for a publishing company that published club guides (i just laugh thinking about that alone.. what a fucking summer man.) anyway, as you could imagine, all i did all summer long was go to clubs for free and do reviews. creamfields comes along, i get a couple of vip passes and me + 5 of my friends are backstage while ferry's playing. i was taking video and pics behind ferry right in the booth, whatever, then we decided to get dancing next to the stage, right in front of the crowd that was behind the rail. suddenly, nonstop, people start asking if i'm ferry's sister, cousin, mother, grandmother, you name it, i was apparently related to ferry. 
a few ask me to get their tickets autographed. sure. went up to ferry, he signed up, went back down. more started asking. ok, fine....then more and MORE...until i lost someone's ticket completely! it ended up being a ticket of a very hot english bloke that way and we're still friends to this day. 
(hah, kinda anti-climactic, right? 
)
anyway, the best time had to be standing right behind pvd (and subsequently taking pics of/videotaping/generally worshipping pvd's ass) when he played his set... which was fucking awesome btw, especially nothing but you had just come out and he was playing all sorts of edits of it and everyone was totally in love with it, including me. (4,397,092 plays later....ok nevermind.) afterwards, all 6 of us looked like we just arrived from mars because paul took pictures with all of us. i had that pic up in my room in a frame for like, 3 years next to my pvd shrine with candles, incense, posters, photoshopped pics of me and him getting married, etc. 
Late night crew 
Okay, so a good friend came down for Ferry's private gig at Cielo. She is a total ferry freak. Ferry is probably the nicest dj I ever met and I'm not a trancehead so I think this is objective. She would not leave his side. And ferry looked honestly touched. Then his wife called and he dropped everything lickety split and ran off. I remember my friend looking so abandoned. It was cute in a very amusing way.
One time, I got to meet John Digweed at the Guvernment and had a chance to speak with him. Told him I loved his sets and his kiss 100 shows. Then my friend wanted to take a picture of us but I didn't want to be a groupie but my friend insisted. In the phone, it looks like John was more interested in seeing me than the other way. Very quiet mild mannered person.
Then one time I saw tiesto from the back of the dj booth. I saw hime put a DAT and push play and he pretended to be spinning for the rest of the night...
JOKE! That last one I was kidding but I expect to be flamed bad. It was worth it! 
one time when marco v was back in avalon
either in july 04 or nov 04
i went up the dj booth and i had a cd of his i wanted to get signed so i showed the bouncer and he let me in to get it signed
so marco was signing it and i was chatting with him for a few and i told him i ordered the cd all the way from holland cause america dont get shit he was like wow thanks alot for the support i really mean it
so there was a bottle of grey goose and water and all the drinks on the side so he goes "you want a drink?" and i though he ment like water or red bull so i was like yea wat the hell
he gave me a grey goose and cranberry lol
and he was lettin me chill in the dj booth for the rest of his set and dident mind
madd chill guy
i think i told you the story about PVD and Judge Jules beating a guy up at Gatecrasher many times....
Funny moment was when I was at Avalon in 2005 and Chris Liebing was in the booth. I was chilling in there, talkin with him and stuff, and while he was spinning, some kid decides to light up a joint. Hes like yo, whats that smell ?? Hes like gimme that shit. Takes the kids joint, takes a long hard pull, gives it back. And started to mind fuck us with 150 BPM techno the rest of the nite. ROTFL.
