06/09 - BREAKFAST with FERRY CORSTEN - Party on the Cheap with DI

[ramz]

Despite what you might think from the thread title, this is NOT actually a morning event... I just got a little carried away with teh pun of having a local up and coming DJ named "Breakfast" on the same bill as Ferry Corsten... You may throw tomatoes if you like, but I would like it to be known that I'm a fan of nice, vine ripened beefsteaks...

Wanna go to GLOW to see your favorite international headliners but can't stand the typical FUR experience? Come party with District Ignition @ GLOW!

<p align="center"><img src="http://www.dcclubbing.com/panodesign/ramz/ramz_ferryemail.jpg" /></p>
First, when you indicate to the clipboard girl (her name is Kristin...say hi...) that you're on the District Ignition List, you'll get in for a reduced admission ($10 off or $15) until 11:30PM. Kristin's a nice girl, but she is a bit of a guest list nazi, so make sure you're there on time if you want the full discount. After 11:30, you'll still get in for $5 off (taking it down to $20), though, so not all is lost... Since we'll be working the lines outside, we'll be able to verify that you're on the list and hand you your free/reduced pass before you even get through security. So, even if you get in line a little on the late side and security is really slow, you won't get screwed at the door by making it to the ticket window at 11:35. Don't wanna wait in the line? Don't! The DI Guest List means you'll be able to skip straight to the "cuts" line that is always much, much shorter than the general admission line.

One of us stunningly handsome DI guys will also be outside with a magical DI stamp. This stamp will allow you to get exclusive access to the <b><font color=red>District Ignition Lounge</font></b> located above the Arena (Main Room) dance floor in an area that was once referred to as the "Non-Smoking Mezzanine". You can see and feel everything going on in the main room without the hassle of being bumped into and accosted by random pervs--a definite safety zone for anyone that has ever had their ass grabbed @ FUR. What's more there's a bar right there where you can almost always walk up and be immediately served. Please note, that if the turnout in the main room is on the light side, we won't be able to actually open the DI Lounge. We will push for it to be opened every week, but in cases when it's not, you'll be able to find a strong DI contingent at the bar immediately to the right of the DJ booth, underneath the mezzanine. You may find the following map somewhat helpful...

<div align="center"><img src="http://www.districtignition.com/c/di/img/glow_floor_plan.jpg" /></div>

For now, this list is separate and distinct from our normal DI list that you may have signed up for to go to SNATCH or FUSION, so the best way to to get access is to email

<a href="mailto:glowlist@districtignition.com">glowlist@districtignition.com</a>

You should receive a confirmation email back within a few hours of your submission to the list. If you don't, please hit me up via AIM (ramseyja13) or PM me here... We have had a few instances with some email providers marking districtignition.com email as spam, so you might have gotten the confirmation back sitting in your junk box... Check there and ensure that we are on your safe recipients list to avoid this issue in the future...

As ever, DI appreciates your support and patronage.

[DJ Ciconte]

Ferry is going to a blast...

[ProjektRaRa]

Haha. The DI awesomeness line. nice.

How much is it without being on the guestlist?

[ramz]

I don't currently have that information, but I will get it as soon as possible...

[Dainbramage]

Maybe one of the other guys knows for sure, but I do know that pre-sale is $20, so probably in the $20-30 range at the club. Anyone else know for sure?

Edit: Damnit Jason, you beat me to it by a matter of seconds...

[RevisionC]

I like the big X flyer. That's pretty nifty.

That's an even more nifty name for a picture thiswilleventuallyhaveaflyer.jpg

ps. who the hell is Breakfast

[DLWman0322]

ps. who the hell is Breakfast
he's a local DJ/Producer from annapolis, MD. He is signed to Ferry Corstens Flashover recordings lable. Currently his newest tune "The Sunlight" is all over the DJ world. It was recently a a future favorite on Armin van Buuren's A State of Trance for a few episodes. Its also on Ferry Corsten's newest compilation Passport: United States of America.

His earlier claim to fame was him and Big Mike's remix of Filo & Peri's Ordinary Moments, on PvD's Vandit lable. He has a few other releases out.

In a recent Interview Ferry claims he's gonna be the next big thing in trance/progressice.

His real name is Casey and he just turned 18 recently. For those who visit GLOW regularly, he is always there, and he's up in the DJ booth alot of with the high profile DJ's coming through. He even gives me the hook-up sometimes.

pretty cool dude, I wanna collaborate with him sometime soon.

General admission for Ferry is $25 @ the door. Be on the DI list and show up before 11:30, you're in for $15. Be on the DI list and show up AFTER 11:30, you're in for $20. Either way, you're in the DI Awesomeness Line... :thumbsup:

[Dainbramage]

Good looking on the info!

[ramz]

that's how I roll...

The DI line is key here ... there are typically hundreds of plebes waiting to get in at the other line, so not only does everyone sweat you and your special line-skipping awesomeness, you get lots of onlooking typical fur-dwellers jealous and feeling inferior; wondering what they did in life to not be as cool as you. The general answer of course, being, we don't wear sunglasses in dark clubs and our collars are not in the popped position.

[ramz]

LOL... Seriously... LOL

I don't know.....

I've seen Chad on multiple occasions rocking the popped collar and sunglasses look :shrug:

[Dainbramage]

Chad's special...

[RevisionC]

Chad's special...

Is that what you call it?? :afterbuzz:

[ramz]

well... it IS politically correct, n'est-ce pas?

[Dainbramage]

Was war das? Ich spreche Deutsche...

[ramz]

das ist not eine boobie!

[DLWman0322]

I from time to time wear sunglasses in clubs.....but only when I know theres gonna be some good photo ops. My pictures tend to come out better, as it relates to my facial expression. But popped collars are a no-no for me. He'll I don't even wear polo shirts now that I think about it.

[Dainbramage]

das ist not eine boobie!

That is not a boobie? Didn't know we were on the subject of breasticles...

[E:go]

There is absolutely nothing wrong with wearing sunglasses inside a dark club! (Unless they're the supersized Eurotrash-style glasses that make people look like total guidos or bug people...then they're not so cool.)

Some clubs have better lighting systems than others. Lots of lights flashing for hours on ends hurts my eyes. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

That's why it is important to position yourself behind one of the two speaker hoes... they block the evil lights...

[Dainbramage]

I knew there was a reason those tramps are always standing there!

That's a good tip. Any others?

You should bottle them all up, then you could package it as Picante's Spicey Tips.

I got a million tips to give out... I should write a book you're right...

but instead of Picante's Spicy Tips... I will call my book... "Ronald's Tips for the Wayward Clubber"

[ramz]

I would recommend an entire chapter entitled: "The Importance of Not Sitting Around on Your Ass at Home"

You also resemble the guy that wears sunglasses inside a club. So your point is??? :shrug:

[DJ Ciconte]

don't be that guy, dude.

[Dainbramage]

I try to avoid it whenever possible, but sometimes it just seems to happen...

[DJ Ciconte]

Yeah... me too... I think I may have to wear my Ferry T-shirt this Saturday.

:rofl:

[ramz]

does it say "Ferry Fucking Corsten"?

[DJ Ciconte]

no... it's my "Save Ferry" T-shirt

[ramz]

huh... I always subconsciously have made that shirt say "Save Ferris" when I read it...

[DJ Ciconte]

that's right ... because I like messing with your subconscious.

MWAuauuuaAUUA HAAAHAAHAUU

Ferry Corsten is currently touring North America to promote his latest compilation Passport United States of America. He will be performing in 22 cities over the 30 days. Corsten, a pioneer and dynamic force in the electronic dance music industry, has never ceased to amaze and challenge the zest and talent he exudes in his productions and musical sets. His philosophy of "Create your own path, be yourself, and strive to make a difference" creates an amazing collaboration of mind, body and spirit between Corsten and iKY Clothing. This fusion of music and fashion is reflected in the Ferry Collection featuring his signature "F" logo and iKY Clothing detail on every garment.

iKY Clothing will also be touring with Ferry Corsten to promote his line in major cities across the United States which include Chicago (at Another Level on Saturday June 23rd at 7:30pm) and Miami later this year. In each iKY event, Ferry fans will be able to meet Corsten and purchase merchandise.

Commander Salamander is located at 1420 Wisconsin Avenue, NW, Washington, DC. Ferry Corsten is scheduled to appear @ 7pm.

this looks like a pretty cool pre-GLOW event!

Just reiterating. :cheer:

[empath]

Fair warning to everyone. On big nights like this GET THERE EARLY!

Even the shorter VIP lines (and they generally have more than one going for big name djs) will start to back up once you get close to 11pm or midnight.

Yeah early is good... we have our own DI line so no worries there... see Jason's map...

[ramz]

well, even that line is sure to have a few dozen people in it later in the night because that's also where ticket holders (yes, people are actually paying to get in... I have no idea why...) get to stand... so, yeah... heed John's advice... :thumbsup:

[DJ Ciconte]

Tomorrow... Ferry is gonna rock it...

:woot::woot:

[ramz]

is he going to... rock your body?

[DJ Ciconte]

is he going to... rock your body?

Ok... let it be know that If I want some dairy I will go shopping because that was just flat out cheese...

.. and isn't it "Rock your Boby Rock"?

[ramz]

yes, yes, yes... it just didn't make since with the second rock the way I used it...

I like my new signature quote, personally... :wink: the parody on biblical verse just makes me giggle inside...

also just a quick question isn't Breakfast playing in a few weeks at Snatch?

[ramz]

yes. 7/7/7 Vegas Trance Nite.

What Glow (or Fur, i'm not sure who is responsible) does on nights like this is they'll start letting people pay more to cut in line, and they'll hold up 'vip lines' to do it.

If you want to get in in less than an hour, either buy tix in advance or get there when the club opens and get into a vip line.

Yeah.. they did start asking if people wanted to pay a cut fee in the plebe line at Bad Boy Bill... but our line still moved pretty quickly...

I can't imagine it is going to take a hour to get in in the DI line... 20-30mins... tops... IMHO

[christauff]

Based off of security last week, who pulled the Navy Seals routine on high-speed frisking, I don't think anyone will wait very long.

How was Ferry last night?

[DLWman0322]

yea I had to miss out, how was that? and how was Casey's set as well?

[Dainbramage]

Damn good time, place was packed! Trance starts to give me a headache after a while but it is what it is. All things considered I thought it went off nicely.

[ramz]

My camera apparently dislikes bass A LOT, so apologies for the shitty sound quality... Ronda wasn't feeling well so we ended up bouncing around 3AM, so what you see here is a small, chronological representation of the video that I shot between 1AM and 3AM. BTW, the pink things you see in people's hands are makeshift glowsticks made of PINK energy drink cups that were there as some kind of promotion... Anyway... looks like a crowd completely absorbed with being seen to me... what do you think?
