2016/11/23 Give Thanks, San Jose

π 2016-11-23 01:01 in Clubbing

So, there was a big ass dreamstate event in Los Angeles, but getting there over thanksgiving just wasn't convenient, and became less necessary when I found out that we'd be getting a decent enough Trance event in our backyard, so I went to Give Thanks, and it was indeed a good lineup.
Oakey, Cosmic Gate, ATB, Andrew Rayel (incidently all of them were going to Dreamstate afterwards, so it's good that we got to have them first :):

poor oakey was looking old and tired though, his heart didn't seem into it

Good night all in all, glad I was able to go.

2016/11/10 Above and Beyond in Sacramento

π 2016-11-10 01:01 in Clubbing

Since I was at ThunderHill in Willows during the day and Above and Beyond were playing in Sacramento, almost on the way home, but to make the deal more sweet, it was by McClellan Airfield/KMCC, where I was able to fly in fewer than 30mn from Willows, walk to my hotel, drop my stuff, and go to the party, fewer than 10mn on foot from the hotel and the airport's FBO. Super convenient!

The one lowlight was that it opened at 21:00 while 2 of Above and Beyond (you pretty much only get 2 out of the 3, pseudo-randomly, it's like they draw straws :) showed up around 23:15. It was a long time to wait considering that the music before that was not trance :( Either way, once they finally showed up, it was sweet:

The next morning, I went back to the nearby airport and flew home:

argh, no, not my plane. would have been nice tough :)

2016/11/04 FSOE 500 at Verso With Trance Family

Thanks to my friend David, I've been more up to date with the Trance events going on, and as a result I've been missing a lot fewer of them, which is great news. I did go to FSOE 400 last year in San Jose, and it was actually a good event with a good DJ selection.
FSOE 500 was much more low key with fewer DJs in a much smaller venue, but I actually ended up enjoying that event so much more. It was pretty much non stop quality trance for 5 hours, something sadly too rare nowadays:
