armin was packed. guetta was packed most recently and in november i think, calvin harris was packed, tiesto was, benny benassi and kaskade will be. when I say packed I mean cluster fuck shoulder to shoulder
ferry had a pretty good crowd, above and beyond had a pretty good crowd, eric prydz packed the shit out of lima, but its not that big of a club.
could have used better turnouts at svd, gareth emery, wally lopez, shlomi aber, dirty south, dahlback.
sometimes it doesnt seem packed when it really is at Fur because that dance floor is HUGE. I mean shit, i'd guess its at least 5 times larger than pacha's main floor. if not a little bigger. I wouldn't say it's as big or webster hall or crobar, but it's a nice size. so maybe thats why.
i've been quite happy living and going out in DC. every thursday there's a sick house/prog/'european style' DJ. every satuday there's a giant trance star. sometimes those roles are reversed. I've gotten to see so many DJs i've never seen. wally lopez last week, funkagenda this week, blake jarrell, guy gerber, joris voorn, bobina in a few weeks.
where the crowd is? I don't fuckin know, it seems to be there for the most part. I guess that means we need to do a better job of getting the word out.
all that's Glow-related and the parties are at Lima every thursday and Fur every saturday.
as for other clubs, I hit up 18th st lounge one night for sam burns (some him at Marvin's as well). I don't really know how 'packed' either of those places can get but ESL is on sudays and marvins is on wednesday. 18th had a good amt of people i guess, and the top floor was minimal tech wit this kid soloman sanchez and someone else. it was sick, i stayed up there the entire night.
And now will eastman opened up a new venue, U st. Dance Hall or something like that where he's throwing EDM parties each week. If there crowd wasn't there I don't think he'd open a club.
As far as DC88 goes, it's harder for them to get people to come because tha tmusic has such an acquired taste. It's one thing for blkmkt and resolute to get tons of people to come out in NY, not as easy in DC, less people = less smelly weird dancing techno loving europeans (no offense to anyone on here, all TA's smell like peaches).
I heard there were only 10 people at troy pierce when he was in DC. Who's fault is that? the promoter for not informing people, the people for not showing up. or troy for not making a bigger name for himself. who knows
