-- RSVP: Ferry Corsten TA meetup!
Pages (3): « 1 2 [3]
haha, I think I freaked Lisa Lashes and Anne Savage out because the first thing I said was "Oh my god I used to be like, obsessed with you!"
That was fun, talked to Ronald quite a bit and he was so cool, really down to earth. Got a rekkid signed.
And I have a few pictures, but they are on actualy film so you'll you have to wait until I get them developed and scanned.

It was awesome seeing Ferry and Ronald, they're both really awesome guys. It was pretty cool to hear the stories Ferry was telling as well hehe.
Thanks, Adam, for organizing it, but seriously, next time we have a meetup there should be a fucking rule that you can't go unless you buy a freaking drink. If you can't come up with fucking $5 then you shouldn't be there. It looks bad for the group and the restaurant hated us for taking up a huge table when only 4 people bought something! Pretty lame if you ask me.

Kate: I showed up with about $12. I was intending to buy Ferry a drink, but then I heard that Luce was really expensive...so I decided to play it safe and save my cash, so I did. And I'm glad I did because Luce charges $5 COAT CHECK 
and $5 WATER! However, I think you have a point, I didn't forsee that. Sorry, my mistake 
Anyway, things went very well regardless 
So here's the *detailed* version of what happened, for those who weren't there.
I got to Subeez around 9, and the other TAs showed up pretty quickly. It was great seeing all the TAs I know and all the others I haven't yet met We went in and got a table around 9:30, Ferry shortly appeared after that, accompanied by Ronald van Gelderen, Anne Savage and Lisa Lashes 
Looks like my organizational efforts paid off alot better than I expected 
Ferry and Ronald chatted it up with us for a while, some great stories from Ferry as well (that one about the Avalon Boston show I was at is going to make me laugh for the rest of my life 
) Elena, I DID give you a mention, and Ferry signing Caleb's record was cool too Sean, what was that CD you gave to Ferry?
Around 10 everybody started going to the club (thanks for the ride Earl). I got to the door just before 10:30 with a couple other TAs. I didn't like the attitude of the door people...watching the bouncers argue with Anne Savage about her ID was classic! (They wouldn't let her in for like 20 minutes, OMG that was mint ) Finally they let us in...I didn't like the venue itself that much. Crowd was nice enough, but the place is TOO DAMN SMALL and, as I said, damned fucking expensive. Nice setup though.
Ronald van Gelderen played a bloody superb set. Somewhat darker stuff, a little techish in places, just the way I like my trance Really got the crowd going, the whole place was really pumped for Ferry. He came on around midnight, and his set was pretty good. He went for an extra hour too (more on that later). He played his trademark melodic trance for a while, then got a bit techy, then trancey, then techy, then trancey...the flow of his set was pretty weird IMO, I thought Ronald played a better set. But the crowd was loving it, so whatever. I went nuts when he dropped Right of Way (of course 
) and was dancing right up near the speaker, which turned out to be a mistake 
Anyway I hope my dancing was better tonight than it was at Viva 
I left around 2 and stood outside helping Vlad and Jimmy give out flyers for Insomnia until Ferry's set was over. He played some good tracks but we were freezing our asses off so we were all wishing he would stop playing, was pretty funny cause the bouncers were all doing the same thing ("these songs are like 20 minutes long each!" one said 
) Ferry ended around 3. A bunch of random people asked me to take their picture outside the club, then I got a ride back uptown with Vlad (thanks buddy).
It was an awesome night and an awesome show! Had a great time I pity those who missed it.
And BTW, I have new info on the John '00' Fleming show, straight from Azim: he says the show isn't actually happening, that tour date is a mistake on J00F's website...but he tells me Twisted is trying to bring J00F here though.
does anybody remember the show battlestar gallactica ?
thanks adam once again for organising the get together, i thought ferrys sound is getting very intergallicting sounding , beastie boys tried it in one of there songs and i think they get that robotic sound from an old show called battlestar gallactica , the bad dudes were called cylons and they talked like that, not a big fan of it , had lots of fun last nite , really nice meeting all of you, till the next gig take care
Hey Angelo, sorry i couldnt give u a demo , i didnt expect Ronald and Ann to be there so i just gave em the extra ones
Sup all
Left a bit early, but I'm kinda glad I did (personal reason) though I got really jealous reading that he stayed an extra hour. Next time I'll take care of everything before I plan on staying out all night
Have some cool pics, I'll post those up later once I get them (comp is broken had to get a friend to upload them)
Kate: I honestly didn't think we were going to be that long...I thought it would be more of a just greet Ferry, take some pics, sign stuff chat 15-20 minute affair. Had I known we were gonna stay there for as long as we were I would have ordered those Thai prawns, they looked yum. Next time I'll take that into consideration (this was my first meet up, so I didn't really know what to expect). Oh yea also I'm the guy in the black shirt you kept trying to ask my online handle but the sound was too loud.
Pretty awesome night, best Tuesday I've had in a while Ferry is a class guy, and so was everyone else TA's and other. Cool to meet new people and some old ones too.
i bet sean gave him a demo of his tracks (driven, his remix, maybe other stuff i haven't heard about yet).
everything sounds so cool, figure i get a really bad flu the day before this all goes down.
i'm glad everyone had a great time! there's still quite a few of you local TA's I've yet to meet and would like to do so =D
sounds like a good night
makes me think back to when we met armin, great memories
you guys should've tried to organize something with marco v also, he's a cool guy
