Concert Report: A State Of Trance 900

Well the entire reason for coming to Utrecht in the Netherlands was to take part in episode 900 of Armin van Buuren's weekly radio show, A State of Trance.

Part of the main stage lineup would include Above & Beyond (GB), Ben Gold & Omnia together as Future Code (GB) and Cosmic Gate (D).

More greatness such as Marlo (AUS), Vini Vici (USA) and of course AvB himself!
There was a special 9PM show just for VIP guests.
And then it all began!
Two nights in a row seeing Armin van Buuren (NL).
He would perform a 1-hour "warm-up" set just for us!

 He was pretending to be playing the set entirely off vinyl.

DJ Estiva (NL) would begin the actual show for everyone at 10PM.

First time seeing him live!

 This is the main ballroom at Jaarbeurs in Utrecht. Originally in the second row, I made the mistake of going to get some food and another drink and there was no returning!

A State of Trance had studios right in the arena.

With Armin himself broadcasting live around the world!

But unable to get a good spot again and having seen Armin not only earlier last night but also Friday night at his surprise party, I caved early. Instead of waiting for my 5AM bus back to the hotel, I took a train back to Amsterdam!
