Review of Ferry....or as Yankee put it, Bal en Blanc part DEUX-aftermath
ill start by saying, i had a killer week at my first week at my new job, so i didn't really have any expectations for tonight(besides hoping that Friday's set would be better than his last NYC set) and also practically took madd time during lunch to go shopping with no results (2 hrs on Friday and i was about to give up on the allwhite outfit we had all promised Kelly we would do for the show)
but..eventually i had it...and we got inside at 1045, and I was the first of the WHITE krew there...eventually they all showed up 
first pics of the night...
A great shot...of the most underrated dj of NEW YORK CITYYYYY cheers Jason, LOVED YA

first us three...

then mere finally comes!!! yay!! the krew in WHITE

chimera, phoenixbebe, yankee, phuzzyfish

caught this PRICELESS shot (i think it was JAY)

the first TA group shot



...and with that ill say that I def enjoyed the FIRST half must better than the seocnd half. Jason Jollins just *killed it* without a doubt - man u just get better and better...nice seeing ya stop by on the main floor for a change and we better see you OPEN for Above and Beyond on June 1 <-- a welcome surprise to see announced among MADE EVENTS summer lineup ) Ferry came on and it was banging...there were def a few very interesting remixes of songs...loved hearing Analog Feel - Cosmic Gate early on in his set...i def have to see the tracklisting for this one...
the place was ass crowded, hate PACHA and 18+ events!!! sheesh we were soo close to the dj booth up in front but a group of fobs got there before we did...and i swear the no-shaking dance was all around me, i was SKERRED lol and ppl laughed cuz i showed it in my face. Poor Drew was becoming the *unwilling* 3rd person in a guy/girl grind (well the guys back was to him but he was literally pushing Drew hard into the pillar so there you go...

- drew was like, "SAVE MEEEEE" which was hilarious.
AND goddamn that CO2 came a little TOO early in the night - BAD TIMING!!!! 2 blasts within what seemed like forever, and it seemed to be a DIRECT HIT on where I was STANDING!!!! that shiet was f*ckin FREEZING and uncomfortable i screamed ~
too crowded...we lose yankeebaby halfway thru the night, then one by one ppl disappear from the floor...we go downstairs around 3pm and ppl are hanging out downstairs, and thats where we spent the rest of the night
all of us downstairs (this is such a GREAT picture i think )


ravi PIMPING it up, girls on all sides...very SATISFIED lol

me and drew - COUPLE SHOT

drew and his boi - who used to party it up back in the days

robdawg with mere

me with Ludawg (Anh) who we haven't partied with for a long time

during the 2nd half, there was definitely some serious mixing going on...Ferry switched off to some breaks - which was intriguing cuz i love breaks but a lot of ppl didnt dance...then it got predictable, throwing down year favorites (like Black is the Colour) altho the remix of A Life Less Ordinary was siiick. Beautiful Things and PUNK were BOTH played (yes Molly, it was great...he played those two tracks during Labour of Love as well; Punk was like meh to me tho) it was fun i guess but i really wanted him to mix in NEWER TRACKS (such as the ones recently heard on TATWs)... it was to the point where we would hear a track, and be able to come up with an awesome track to mix in (if only that had been his intention). lol well it was a fun game that I played in my head while getting thru this so-so period. I mean, Ive been to so many Ferry parties over the past two years or so, i just got listless after while. but to be objective, it WAS a fun set overall tho.
During the last hour, we came up just in time to hear some kickass encores including a FERRY CLASSIC which I captured on VIDEO (god I was debating btwn 3 titles during that entire song, and Jay u are gonna kill me for not being able to title it, i am just horrible at iding and ashamed of myself...hahaa). Prodigy - Smack My B*tch Up finally came (thank you KELLY!!!) which just brought the HOUSE DOWN to until the lights went on. Jay managed to get his jersey and my white hoodie signed by Ferry, Drew, Wai and Mere caught a signed poster he was handing out (i didnt even try for this;' most of the posters in our room I took from various parties ahah) and we finally lcoated the whereabouts of kelly from Wai and Meredith, kels was up in the dj booth the 2nd half lucky girl!!!

oh yeah, memorable mentions of the night
- First NICEST MOMENT:Me in the girls bathroom trying to fix my hair with my hair clips, and this girl next to me by the sink, takes off a larger blue clip and shes like, "do you want this clip? it holds hair very well..." im like, nooooo - but she insists...and even has me sorta step down a lil while she recreates my hairstyle right then and there!! And it does stay...and she created this perfect POUF on my head...goddamns!!! ~ lolz it looked REALY good tho and i gave her a hug...now wow that was SOO reminscent of the ROXY/HAPPY RAVER days ^__^
___________________________________________________
- Second NICEST/funny moment: Meredith is getting dry mouth like crazy later in the night...and asks for gum. Cl005k (Chris Lee) digs into his pockets for the LONGEST time to try to find some...says "Oh I don't have any..." then from the deepest part of his pocket, seems to YANK out a piece of gum (1/4 of a stick), out of its wrapper. Its like bent and shit, and MUST have been cold and hard as SH*T. We all look at it in his hand, then Meredith snatches it, and declares, "I dont care, imma take it ANYWAY i NEEEEED it" and pops it into her mouth. we were all like AWWWW (you just had to be there tho it was a hilarious moment)
___________________________________________________
- I take this pic of ravi, Jay and Wai...

they are all looking at the picture, and then Wai's like "Hey, nice picture, but how come im not smiling?" shes looking at the picture for 5-10 more minutes..and thens like, "....hmmm oh yeah, i AM...smiling." Her smile's was as BIG as DAY. OH WAI, drunk again... :rollseyes: haha
