I've heard Acosta's making a name for himself as the Miami van Buuren. But then, I'm on the opposite side of the continent so what would I know.

Theres a trance scene everywhere, where has the biggest one is debatable. Spundae LA have quite alot of trance, and being one of the best clubs in the United States, I think that says alot.

Never been to Spundae but there are plenty of awesome clubs in the North East as well. Sadly, a great club, Nation in DC, was closed down but was one of the most amazing venues I have ever gotten a chance to step foot in!

It's a big country, and the scenes are centered in the bigger cities -- NY, LA, Miami, Chicago attract some good names. Des Moines, Iowa struggles a little more.

All depends on where you are.

PS. Acosta actually is pretty good -- I saw him awhile back, and it was a tight set, even if it wasn't exactly my style of choice.

the only shit genre there is r'n'b and it has nothing to do with the EDM scene.

i thought miami would be good but the chances of getting placed there are non-existent. more than likely ill be placed in boston, illinois, austin, or pennsilvenia (whatever way its spelt)

Well Spundae is something like 3,000 capacity I think...not sure...but its fucking huge...I've never been either cause they are fake ID nazis but I will def go when I turn 21...believe it or not trance is still fun to me, especially at place like that.

Well, Boston or Chicago will have decent scenes, though Chicago is bigger into House and Boston is bigger into the Indie Rock scene, what with being such a college town and all. Both will draw the occasional big name DJ though, like Ferry or KT.

Austin is more unfamiliar territory for me, but I doubt there's too much EDM down there aside from the odd minor DJ night or something.

Pittsburgh is def. not trance country.

Unless it's Philadephia, Pennsylvania, you're fucked for ANY edm, even house. Boston has some trance, I believe Texas has a fairly good scene, most of the TAs from Chicago don't seem to be that into trance, so I'm not sure what the scene there is like.

His Awake CD was one of the very, very few epic trance DJ mixes I actually enjoyed at the time.

Ferry live @ Spundae is actually a class album.
