George Acosta, Eddie G & Gerry Cueto @ Spirits, 12-29-06 review + pics
Holy hell. It's 6:30 in the morning and I just home from Spirits NOW. 
I have got quite a lot to cover, then I'ma eat then crash.
For last week's review of A State of Mind, CLICK HERE!
This week's installment of A State of Mind had George Acosta, Eddie G and FLTA's very own Gerry Cueto, with Kato K of Y100 opening (again).
Kato K did a slightly better opening set this time, but of course it didn't appeal to me. Especially when he played Proper Education before or after a song with the pitch bi-polarly altered. Lame. Onto Eddie G.
This was my first time ever hearing Eddie G play. Despite him telling me he couldn't bang it out too hard to open, he still did a GREAT opening set. He also played virtually all of them on vinyl, and for that I have to give props. Tracks included:
Ti�sto - Dance 4 Life
Parker & Hanson - Let Me Be (Vocal Mix) <- GORGEOUS Vocal tune
Marco V - False Light (Original mix)
Except for one transition the rest of the set was flawless. Eddie did a great job getting the crowd warmed up for George Acosta who is next up in ze review.
Two weeks in a row, George Acosta delivers a massive, energetic set. Tracks included:
Sean Tyas - Lift (O'Kearney edit)
Randy Katana - Plastic Fantastic
Ti�sto - Flight 643 (? mix)
Plus many more...
The crowd was going insane the whole time George was up there. Energy, crowd interaction, rhythm and flow....you name it, it was there. Awesome last set at Spirits for 2006 by George.
And finally came our very own Gerry Cueto. He came on with a massive, bangiing energy set, then went into a tag-team session with George and a friend of his, who happens to be a good DJ himself. Tracks from this session included:
Giuseppe Ottaviani - Through Your Eyes (Thomas Bronzwaer remix) <- VERY NICE
Insigma - Open Your Eyes (Sean Tyas remix)
Kai Nel - Beyond Doubt (Sean Tyas remix)
George Acosta - Apocaplyse (Gerry Cueto remix) <- NASTYYYYYYYYYY
After the tag team session, Gerry went on to end the night with some lower BPM (126 or so) stuff, but gave us a couple of nice ending tunes, one of which was Ridgewalkers featuring El - Find (Andy Moor remix).
This was one HELl of a way to spend the last Friday of the year 2006. With the way things are going at Spirits with George in place, I was thinking this could be the Shadow Lounge resurrected for the future....2007. I was speaking to George's agent Angel and he was also thinking the same thing. H4X!
The only thing to complain about tonight: the same thing as last week, multiplied by 2. This time we had TWO flower ladies in the club.
For fuck sake!
Tonight was a damn good, but exhausting night. I wanna take this oppurtunity to thank Eddie G for the VIP and drinks, George for the drinks and for the chat and great times in the DJ booth, and was great meeting Angel, Francis, Eddie's agent and Gerry's parents as well. More highlights of the night include Manny doing his famous light show. He got quite the audience for that. Took plenty of pics tonight and 2 videos, which will all be posted later today. Decent TA turnout, I expect there will be a better one for Edgar, George and Gerry next Friday night at Spirits for the next installment of A State of Mind.
Review ends.

i cant belive i missed this...
The song Eddie G played that I had to ID later was Parker & Hanson - Let Me Be (Vocal Mix). I recognized this one from ATB's awesome set at Nature One. When I said that, Carlos was like "You really love ATB, don't you?"

Videos:
Robert Miles - Children (Sean Tyas remix)
AIRWAVE
That's all, folks. What a night!
Good times! Great seeing everyone! Eddie, George did great, Gerry was keeping it up after George. All in all, it was a good night out! Till the next one....
Wow, I was hoping last friday wasn't a fluke and i'm glad it wasn't. George is quickly moving up my list of fav dj's. He was one of the first to get me into trance and much respect to him.
Great job Gerry!
Super hangover...
tracks not mentioned...
Mac & Mac - Rippin' Base
E-Craig - Home (Dub)
A life elsewhere (Roth Psy mix)
Spirit in my life (cedric gervais remix) (cato K)
Outwerk & Mr. Gee - Elektro (How eddie G played this in the middle of a trance set, i don't know)
Oh yeah... that reminds me... I give eddie G lots of credit for playing vynil. I cannot even begin to imagine how difficult it is to spin with them. Now, pleasantries aside, he's been mixing for a long time and he trainwrecked once and had a few questionable transitions. He did play some tracks that really impressed me tho. That remix of Super 8 - Get off was really nice. All in all, decent set.
Now to get back in bed
Edit: Cedric Gervais - Spirit in my life (Second Sun remix)
just another great review by DA. it sounds like this is becoming a realiable and consistent trance night. something this city really friggin needs! as much as i love house music trance brings the energy.

Is that a DJM 600 or 800 in the booth? They look almost identical except i think the 800 has 1 or 2 extra features and it's black, not silver...

cool review DA.
The flower people need to eat too. 
Glad that those of you that came out had a good time. How many drinks did you have up there in VIP? Those pictures look like you were having some problems keeping still or you did it for effect?!?!
peace.
NEXUS
PS the DJ mixer was a DJM-1000 but acosta doesn't like the 1000 because it lacks effects, so I gave him a djm600 till we buy him the 800.
HAPPY NEW YEARS TO ALL! PARTY SAFE!!!.

lol, 1 or two extra features. If you havent played on an 800, go borrow one or something. that mixer is just complete bad ass. after a week of working with it you can do any effect your mind can think of. Its a midi control or if you use it as stand alone then you can use midi effects
