Do you think NYC could ever support a huge indoor party like Innercity or Trance Energy, etc.

how do they do it in Amsterdam? Do the DJ's charge less? If it was made into a big event here, it would draw more than the trance regulars. Can almost never get a good back to back DJ night here. Just the main DJ, and an opening talent.

Oh well.... Just wishfull thinking.

They have tried this numerous times in The states and it has yet to work. Mecca, Creamfields, Ultra NYC 2002. NOne of then have ever worked. There is just not enough interest in Electronica here for it to ever work. Creamfields last year didnt even sell 3,000 tickets, they needed at least 10,000 sold to pay the djs. Not only that, but I highly doubt NYC would ever grant the license to have it indoors, especially with the nightlifr crackdown going on in NYC as it is. You def. cant compare Trance Energy and Sensation to anything else. Holland is totally different. Trance is pretty much mainstream there and therefore they can easily sell 50-60 thousand tickets before line-ups are even announced. Dance Valley sold out months before anyone knew who was spinning. Here that would never happen, its just a different way of life over there. I wish it were like that here, but I guess as long as we have eminem and J.Lo as our chart leaders we will have to stick to making the trips to Europe

adding on to what ian pointed out: imagine trying to have a festival here in NYC like they have overseas...the DJ's cost a lot more when you consider that theyre traveling overseas...also, it would be at a smaller scale because EDM isnt as big here as it is in Europe... the Ultra and the Area concerts are probably the best thing we got for now...


give it another 5 years and re-assess this...

well you cant really complain about going to europe......except the money which i'm sure none of us have :rolleyes:

The largest indoor events that I have been to were the Whistle 2 and 3 parties, that took place in New Jersey in 1999 and 2000 - Both were sold out with over 12,000 people inside, and still a few thousand left that didn't get in... Still definatly has to be up there with the best events i've been to (Becides Ultra) Even those it didn't have all "big" dj's but definatly was impressive for me back then.

I haven't seen any events on the North East coast that big since then - I know they used to have bigger parties in cali, and there still is a couple of massives a year over there on the west coast :D

*edit* But none of those parties is like Trance Energy or anything like that overseas - Ultra is the only thing that comes close IMO - Wait, Ultra is outdoors oops O_o Ahh, I can't wait :p

what, are they taking Concords to get to the US and therefore it costs an extra $5000 to get their asses here??? no...i'm sure it only costs a few hundred.. and some djs pay their own way to the states... (mario piu being one..)
