Airport @ Austin TX Oct-6-2001 (+pics, corsten/acosta)

Hey guys! as the title says last saturday there was a massive rave in austin, in order to go to the venue parking was made in downtown austin and shuttle busses ferried to people to the actual venue, 20 or so minutes aways. luckly i got to the line early and was at the venue by 10 pm. here's a run down of the show itself. DJ MARS from San Fransisco picked nice songs but i didnt think he had great talent when it came to the mixing. George Acosta came on with a lot of energy, starting with trance and then went to hard house like fire wire near the end. a few yards after the main stage was this elevated wooden floor where some people could dance and that where i spent most of my time, cool thing was that before Ferry came on they handed everyone there bright orange glowsticks, we all light it at the exact same time when ferry dropped his first song and then we threw it over the main crowd in front of the stage - amayzing - if i find pics of this later ill add it to here, and i still need a better crowd shot and a max graham pic. anyways back to the subject now ferry's set was good except for the soundsystem - it sucked, quality was horrible. i dont know why but for his set the speakers werent loud at all and even crackled with the bass kicks as if it were blown, thing is they werent blown cause max graham afterwards played on them prefect. i'd like to know what happened. cool thing about ferry is that he actually moves to his music and intereacts with the crowd a lot, between mixes he was signing things left and write, pointing at people and shaking others' hands. After that Max Graham was on and althought i dont like his music preferance (progressive house - no emotion to move me) his mixing talent is by far the best i've seen in my life. Max graham is an odd character, he was very serious while mixing but took really funny posses all the time for camera shots. after him it turned techo so i wasnt paying much attention. well it was a fun night... anyways enough blabbing, here are the pics

heres how the main stage looked:






George Acosta:




Ferry Corsten:






and since for those of you who like pics of light shows, here ya go:

Are you sure this midget showed up to his rendez-vous ?



nice review Izzy , keep up the good work

hey i took this pic ..remember.i was the guy that got stuck taking picture after picture of ferry corsten

Mike, if it was you who took it, then i thank you very much! those were wonderful pics of him!
now i have a few other questoins... were there any pictures taken when the all the orange glowsticks were lit on the wooden dancfloor at the begining of ferry's set? i was in the front holding one. also did you get that on camera, or zoom in general to there anytime else? im just asking cause i want a pic with me in it so i can show everyone here. and lastly what was the deal with the sound system when ferry was on? it utterly almost ruined the experience.

http://www.iloveraving.com has pics of there meet up with the ultra glowsticks..i have it on video..but i have yet to even turn that video on. been really busy with work, and a new website. but i will go throught corstens set and see if i can u anywhere and make a pic out of it..but i doubt because the crowd was really dark. As for the sound.it wasnt the system. Its sad to say it that ferry corsten pumped it to hard. he was hitting the reds on his mixer..and the systems board behind stage was not in the reds..at all.not even yellow. so ferry was either pushing it really hard..or to much into his headphones..so i dont know..
mike
