| I stayed for the duration. The place was way overcrowded till about 3am. sashas set was pretty standard nothing special i thought he would have played some classics like heaven scent, OBE, water from a vine leaf, purple, ohmna, be as one.... but he didnt. The "ing electricity" track was ing baddass though along with all the really hard tracks and breaks he played he played.. Im a die hard sasha fan, but ill have to say sander was prolly a better show. Or digweed in LA for the matter. |

You guys are such pessimists.
I had a great time. So did my friend, and we took the bus from DC to get to Avalon. A totally crazy 30 hour marathon that included 10 hours of clubbing in between.
Well-worth it :) |

| I had a ing awesome time @ Sasha. Drove in from Pittsburgh and met some friends in NJ then took the sub to the city. Started the night off at The W Hotel for drinks cause it was fairly close to Avalon. Got to Avalon around 9 and the line was already ing huuuuuuge!!! Waited in line for about hour 1/2 then finally got in the door. I swear, the staff @ Avalon were really cool. Once the doors opened the line moved pretty fast. No problems getting in the doors at all. They didnt even look at my id. The open bar from 9 - 11 was no joke. Got ing faced on free drinks till 11 and after that......is a whole other story haha. Sasha came on right aroun 12 and really tore up. His set was almost to predictable and he played alot of the same tracks hes been droping but his mixing was great like always. I really enjoyed Avalons sound sysytem......ever easy on the ears:D The crowd was very nice and into the music from what i seen. Yeah there was alot of guidoes and all but everybody respected each other. The uni-sex bathrooms were kinda weird but whatever. All i can say is i had a great time and im glad i decided to come to NYE instead of sitting on my ass here in Pittsburgh. Shout outs to my crew.....Mustafa, Joanna, Janette, Sergio, Casper, tranceyes and Aaron (it was great hanging with you guys on NYE....btw..after we went to the bathroom, where the did you guys dissapear to?) Left Avalon around 7:30 and went back to Bree's after party and chilled. Awesome night!!!! |

OMFG I DIE I CRY!! haha, no but for real, NYE with sasha was perhaps one of the best, if not THE best, club nights I have ever been to. he was absolutely amazing. after seeing him, i am totally into the more proggy side of trance rather than the uplifting stuff everyone else plays. this was also my first time at avalon, and can i tell you how sweet that club is. when we first got there, we had to wait in a freaking hr and a half line to get in, but once we did- it was WELL worth it. the club is so cool, it felt so naughty yet even spiritual at the same time partying my ass off in an old church and the old limelight. aaron and i had a blast- we met SOOO many cool people, i was really surprised actually....i thought it was gonna be this pretentious club with snotty s but it was just the opposite. i met people there who i felt i had known forever! love to my baby (of course), brian and jerzy girl, mustafa and sergio, evan, aryn, and ryan, angel and ian, and all the rest of the wonderful people who made NYE the most incredible night.
anyone who has a tracklist or knows where this set is available to have- PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!!!
**** plus, does anyone know the name of this song he played, it had vocals that sounded like they could either be a girl or a higher males voice...ferry played it also last weekend at glow, i cant really remember much about it but everyone went crazy when he put it on and its very like, uppity and happy. any thoughts or suggestions even????? |

This is a bit late but here's my take on the night...
Erin and I get to the club around 10:30 to the sight of a massive line almost all the way down 20th street to 5th Ave. I was really pissed off when I found out that was the line for tickets and because it really looks like they oversold the club if it's already full at 10:30. EV Junkie I think you're right about them not letting people in til after 11 cuz of the open bar cuz a little after 11 the line started moving pretty fast and we got into the building a little after 11:30. We got through coat just in time to walk onto the balcony over the main floor as they were about to countdown til midnight.
We found a spot with a bit of room along the wall to the left of the booth on the lower floor and danced for a bit. Somehow we managed to meet up with Brian (Vtec) on the main floor and just chilled out for a bit. The crowd was definitely annoying cuz there wasn't much room to dance but everyone we met was awesome. Trips to the bathroom sucked cuz it took forever to get through the crowd but the music was so good I really didn't mind that much. For all those people saying there were s everywhere, I honestly didn't run into anyone like that. Erin and I met the coolest people from all over the world and there was a ton of love in the crowd and everyone we met was just there to have fun.
We hung out on the walkway that connects the balconies and no one was there so we danced our asses off their for a while as Sasha continued to drop bomb after bomb. Once we had room to dance, the night was absolutely incredible and Sasha layed it down like I've never seen anyone do before. I honestly couldn't dance hard or fast enough to do the music justice. I had heard some of them on his sets from this summer and fall but I liked it cuz they all sounded so good on Avalon's system (very loud and tuned well cuz my ears weren't ringing at all afterwards). Plus, on a lot of the tracks Sasha has been playing alot he looped and ed with so hardcore that it sounded so different, I was about to die when he let it loose. We stayed til the end on the main floor which was really nice after it opened up a bit around 5.
EV Junkie: Thanks for the shoutout, I was just really feeling the music the entire time. Were you one of Brian's friends cuz I don't remember meeting anyone else on TA.
If anyone can find a tracklist or even better the set I'll do anything to get it.
All in all an absolutely amazing night filled with awesome people, amazing tracks threaded perfectly together throughout the night. The best part was definitely sharing New Years with Erin in such a perfect environment. The night would have been nothing without her there making me look good :D By far the best New Years ever and one of the most amazing club nights I've ever experienced. |
