Ferry Corsten @ Avalon NYC - Review
God almighty. That's about it. Was too crowded on the bottom floor, but there was WAY more than enough room on the 2nd floor. Nonstop dancing on the 2nd floor to Ferry's left if anyone walked by or looked over. Had a white longsleeve t on. Um.... let's see. Everyone went CRAZY for Rock Your Body, Rock...... Punk.... I almost came when I heard Fearless... was nice to hear Indigo too... Oh shish... and uh.... yeah yeah, Right of Way was wonderful as well... Had to leave at 5 because my friend was mad tired. Wish I coulda stayed longer. Just, wow..... Nonstop energy from the man, gotta love him.
I FINALLY GOT FERRY'S SIG !!!!!!! ON A 20 dollar bill lol. And got a picture, his signature said To Sergio
Happy B-day!!!! Ownage man
ferry vs pvd
got there around 2:15 after i was im'd by my friend saying ferry already started at 1:15 or so. let's just say ferry pwned pvd this weekend. ferry went til about 6:45. all i have to say is, ferry ended his encore with super 8 - alba. OMFG I DIE 
ferry's set was just so much more rocking and FUN. pictures to come soon! dammit i messed up the shots where he was pointing to my camera 
Corsten was amazing. He played alot of uplifting and great trance tunes the whole night. Corsten and Armin are so much better then PVD. PVD needs to stop with this Electro and tech shit he's playing.
The place was so packed. I dont think Avalon is large enough for Ferry. I couldn't move an inch on the main floor. The main dance floor isn't that large.
With Exit having new management, I would love to see Ferry there on a Friday.

i thought this set was nothing to write home about. i actually thought it was pretty dull, except for the techno tunes at the end. i hate ligaya so much. hahah.
but maybe it was because i went to ARC right after and lived the Danny Howells experience till 10am. Now that was insane!!!! 
OMG I god as if I wasn't owned already for FERRY @ GLOW in Dec.27
Well I got to Avalon around 10pm Wow coming from VA with 2 Freinds Intelligent77 (Josy) and a friend. This was my first time ever to NY so it was pretty cool. I was like Wow Avalon looks freakin awesome, the DJ Booth looks like one big metal mask. Ferry start playing 1am but he completey stop the record that was playing from the previous DJ. I guess knew he stop everything that would have got everyones attention but the place went bonkers 
lol.
Well for the first or so it was really crowd in some spots.So like the bottom was like kinda pointless everyone going through so dancing was kinda of diffcult. So me and peeps went around the whole place looking for somewhere to chill and to my suprise we end behind the DJ Booth. It was hot in there. Well after chilin there for some time I made my way to the front in the bottom floor and to my surpise I see POD (Indy) and Lunasea and then Brian 
. I was like where is all the NYTA's when I got there. Then Lunasea told most of you got trashed from PVD 
.Well now to Ferry Sets OMG He lay the smackdown ,damn so tried to rememeber most the tracks as I just got home from NY.
Now here is the tracks I do know and these are not in order and correct if I am wrong
Kyau Vs. Albert - Velvet Morning (Mirco de Govia Remix)
Ferry Corsten - Indigo
Ferry Corsten - Right Of Way
Ferry Corsten - Punk
Rock Your Body
Ferry Corsten - Out Of THe Blue??
Ferry Corsten - Cry (Some Remix)??
Angelli & Nelson Presents Ultra - Holding On To Nothing (Deep Mix)
But mang I had to leave around 5am because peeps had things to do the next day 
Well I did wanna hear some tracks and did he play
Ferry Corsten - Hold On feat Shelley Harland
Ferry Corsten - Its Me
Sveson & Gielen feat Jan Johnston - Beachbreeze
Well it was great seeing everyone again - JOSY THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL OF THIS 
,Brian you drunk fool Great Time Meng, The Glow Girls always a pleasure hanging with you and thanks for Saying Happy Birthday it really ment alot to me, Indy Wow you got moves great seeinf, Lunasea as you nice to meet someone so sweetie, and ShellShock finally got to meet you mang.
What a Great B-Day for me. I hope next time I come I meet more you guys. Wow you New Yorkers know how to party. I will have to come up there more often this was just a Really Great Night 
but maybe it was because i went to ARC right after and lived the Danny Howells experience till 10am. Now that was insane!!!! [/QUOTE]

WOW!... what an amazing night.. I was almost too excited to right a review now that I'm back..
WELL FIRST BIG HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO JOSE!! thats why we went on this trip!!
We road tripped up to NYC a little late, but got there pretty much right at 10pm... (all's good).. had no problems with parking or guestlist.. but was sticker shocked at the toll's.. we spent a lot of $$ on tolls! sheesh!!
We were AMAZED at the club.. WOW... what an interesting place.. I've never seen a club anything like it!.. and then we found skytrancegirl, glittergirl & jersey girl.. and there was this old man dancing on the main floor.. and he WHIPPED OUT HIS TAP SHOES>>>> hehehe.. awesome!.. and jersey girl joked that he was her boyfriend.. and i joked that we'd have to fight over him!! I think he had to be in his 70's!!
And No offense to any NYTA's out there.. but my friend Ting joined us.. and he was up to battling! And i adore watching him dance! but there really weren't too many peeps there with skills.. even worst!.. the gay dudes who did battle him.. didn't battle fair and even though their boy sucked!! they pushed ting out of the way.. but later I saw them come give him a pat on the back!.. ALL IN ALL>. we're bringing our own dance talent next time.. LOL
Ferry ROCKED!! he finally came on and we were all excited and we were trying to find a dance spot on the ain floor where we could see.. MAN that place is really small. i thought it would be bigger.. it was cool.. pretty and really different to me.. but smaller than i expected!!
When punk came on we finally saw politicsofdancing, Lunasea, and vtec with some more new TA's I hadn't met before, but couldn't hear their names in the midst of all that was going on!!
My best time of the night dancing was with INDY on the main floor! I love doing the dancing in circles around someone thing! We're your just doing your own thing but keep moving around each other as you do it!! THANKS!!! I needed a good taste of home grown dancing!!
I simply had a blast!!.. the gay dudes were a little annoying! but who cares!!
Thanks to joanna, amy, janet, indy, dani, brian, ting, jose for one of the best nights ever and for my first trip to an NYC club being AMAZING!!
Tonight was a prime example of what i love most in the scene.. having a great time just dancing and enjoying one of my favorite dj's with a bunch of friends!! Awesome night peeps!! thanks again!!
^^^^ Yeah WTF was up with the Sound Factory losers
oh.. this also made me TOTALLY reconsider my plans for WMC... I'm so torn on what to do for that week.. but i think i've decided PVD on Friday is a must!! Skytrancegirl convinced me!

IMO Ferry's set was bangin...he played mostly uplifting tracks, but still kept to his own unique style. It was great to see 2 of the best DJ's in the world spin amazing ssets back to back nights.
Avalon is a cool venue, but def needs to place more speakers on the 2nd floor. I felt the only place the sound was kickin was if you were on the main dance floor, and that was packed. But overall, GREAT night, great WEEKEND for trance in NYC. Instead of criticism to any DJ we should be thanksful we got a couple of the best this past weekend.

one word about last night LIGAYA!!!!!!!!!
i cant belive ferry droped it
wow what a night i got there around 10:30 chilled out till ferry came on he started off great with kyoto then into sahara then into velvet morning (alto mix. he was in a great trance mood in the begining then switched to some ferry stuff from his album then hit us with some techno and tech-trance which was great i wish ferry would have played more of it, then he went back into alot alot of trance i was there till 5:30 and it was still packed but i was just beat i wish now i would have stayed
it was great meetin you bxnemo iam happy you met ferry for your bday too bad he dident get to sign your drivers licence with your bday on it that would have been a real gift
for anyone who saw me i was the kid with the red ferry corsten shirt
i had alot of people come up to me and ask me about the shirt and stuf
and ferry signed it at the end of the night and said it was a great shirt that was cool
over all with the club the sound syestem sucks my ears are killin me this morning nut ust ringing but hurting there is tooo much bass and too many highs like when a synth would come on it would be louder then the vocal of the song you couldent hear the words that good
the crowd was mixed in the begining it was packed and alot of drug addict asians no offense to anyone who is asian but they just hold each other and shake each others heads and just bump into you and shit it was annoying but later on it died down and it was perfect to move and go nuts
over all iam kicking myself that i dident stay till the end of ferrys set he owned me last night tiesto better step up his game if he wants to remain number 1 this year cause ferry is playing no games lol
OMFG i got KILLED!!! Ferry spun the wickedest set EVER!!!! It was great meeting at you new faces.....Michi, stow, so many i cant even remember!!! Who was the black guy on the dance floor with the cam that we were dancing with all night??? PICS PLEASE!!!! The only thing i have to bitch about is the system.....that shit was tweeked all the wrong ways....and my ears are still paying for it. When Sasha was there on nye...the system was much better. I guess its not tuned for trance very well. Im still in the city @ Sunshines place but ill post a full review and tracklist when i get home.
Peace,
Brian
