AVALAND SATURDAYS – April 10 JUNKIE XL (live*) In the Chapel: DJ Dalton (hip hop & rock) In the Head: DJ Christine Rene (pop & dance classics) JUNKIE XL AKA Tom Holkenburg is the DJ-producer-remixer-live performer now renown for his remix of Elvis “A Little Less Conversation,†which shot to #1 in 24 countries. His recent album called Radio JXL - A Broadcast from the Computer Hell Cabin features collaborations with David Gahan, Peter Tosh, Robert Smith, Chuck D., Gary Numan, Solomon Burke, Sasha, and Australia’s Infusion. The junkie moniker was derived from his obsession and “studio-junkie†reputation, while the XL is a reference to the process of “eXpading Limits†of perception and reality through music. For his NYC live debut, Junkie XL is known for bringing the dynamics of a live rock show to electronica. You can expect a mixture of alternative dance with a striking rock attitude. What separates Junkie XL from other electronic bands, Holkenburg says, is that "groups like Fatboy Slim are presented as dance acts with rock guitars. I consider us more of an alternative rock band using dance tools." This is not electronic music for your headphones. Get ready to rock! *This will be a live performance on the main stage. www.junkiexl.com AVALON 662 Sixth Avenue @ 20th Street 212.807.7780 Doors at 10pm $25 general admission $15 reduced list before 12am / $20 until 2am ClubPlanet guestlist $15 Advance Tickets at: http://www.nextticketing.com/avalon2.html

Will do. You'll read it here first! See you on the dancefloor!

It was a printout that ClubPlanet sent out to their mailing list. You need to make sure you are subscribed to it. You should go to the ClubPlanbet Services page to make sure you are subscribed to the New York newsletter. Go to Modify Profile to subscribe.

Hold nothing... As far as I know - this night is NOT FREE before 12am. Please sign up for a respective guestlist or buy your tickets in advance.

Any night that is FREE before 12am, you need a printout (you can get one from ClubPlanet) and the offer is valid for only 21+ please. On these nights they DO NOT hold the door. The doors open at 10pm so you will get in without a problem if you get there reasonably early - NOT 11:50pm. If you want to save $$, your time should be expendable. We've already done these successfully at Avalon for Steve Lawler, Mauro Picotto etc.

Seriously I don't think it will ever be as packed as it was for Carl Cox (Okay well maybe NYE). Coxy is a legend and a dance music institution, plus he hadn't been in NYC for over 8 months. This is Lisa Lashes NYC debut but she's big over in the UK and Ibiza for her hard-house style. Max Graham is a Canadian progressive - trance DJ. He used to spin at Twilo, now has his Shine residency up in Toronto at the club System SoundBar. Two different styles - one big night!

This is actually Lisa Lashes' NYC debut...so get ready! Here's her bio for those of you who are not familiar with her. She's already legendary in the UK and Ibiza. Get ready to get LASHED! LISA LASHES BIOGRAPHY www.djlisalashes.com DJ Lisa Lashes is hailed throughout the world as the undisputed Queen of Hard House. Lisa’s tireless dedication to the hard style has made her not only a superstar in her native UK, but also the world’s most popular female DJ. Lisa is the first and only female to be considered among the top ten DJs in the world by DJ Magazine, ranking ninth in 2000 and continuing as the top-ranking female DJ in 2001, 2002, and 2003. The Lisa Lashes mixed albums, Hard House Euphoria (2002) and Extreme Euphoria Vol. 2 (2003), also achieved the status of highest selling hard house compilations in the world. Most recently, Lisa conquered Ibiza with her own Lashed in Ibiza nights at Eden, packing in the crowds with her superb technical skills and explosive musical style. “Whatever style of house it is, I play it hard and dirty; it’s my favourite way!†Lisa Lashes’s first gig was at a boat party on the River Severn in 1996, where she was discovered by Madders (Polysexual, formerly of Sundissential) and quickly given her first residency. From there, Lisa added further residencies and regular club nights at the most prestigious clubs in the UK, including Base, Escape, Euphoria, Eat Your Words, Frantic, Fully Charged, Gatecrasher, Godskitchen, Golden, Goodgreef, Hotdog, Koolwaters, Naughty But Nice, Progress, Radioactive, ROAR, Scream, Slinky, Storm, Temple Theatre, The Met, Tidy, and Transaction. Since 2000, Lisa has also headlined all of the top festivals — Godskitchen Global Gathering, Homelands, Tidyweekender, Tidy Magna, Creamfields UK and Ireland, Homelands, Knebworth, Escape Into the Park, and Gatecrasher Summer Sound Systems—while at the same time playing numerous special events, including 2FM in Ireland, Godskitchen and Sundissential University Tours, Radio 1 - One Live in Nottingham, Radio 1 - One Live in Brighton. Lisa has as also displayed her ferocious skills in locales around the globe. She claimed another ‘first’ on the Slinky in Heineken Tour in China as the only female DJ to have played to a crowd of over 5,000 in that country. In South Africa, Lisa performed at sold-out shows of 12,000 in Cape Town and 20,000 in Johannesburg as part of the Camel Cigarettes Tour. Lisa has also toured the United States, Canada, and Australia, while making appearances in Brazil with Guess Clothing, Tenerife, and Corfu. One of Lisa’s most important accomplishments in 2003 was the successful launch of Lashed in Ibiza www.lashedibiza.com For several years, Lisa has held residencies in Ibiza, the summer’s hottest club location, playing Godskitchen, Judgement Sunday’s, Slinky, and Tonic, to name a few. Lisa, however, wanted to create something completely unique, “to put the fun back into the party.†For 15 weeks in summer 2003, Lisa did just that, bringing her furious brand of music to legions of grateful clubbers. For Lisa, “It has to be the most amazing project I have ever been involved with.†The next stage involves bringing Lashed to an even greater global audience. To further this goal, Lisa has teamed with Nettwerk Management, whose international experience will help to cement Lisa Lashes as a top world DJ and Lashed as a premiere dance event. Beginning in 2004, Lashed will travel to China, Korea, Canada, New York City, Miami, Holland, Australia, New Zealand, and Japan. To all UK fans, however, Lisa says, “I’m not leaving anyone, because hard house and the stuff I play in the UK is still massive here, so there’s no reason for me to go away. I just want to go abroad to show them our style.†In fact, Lisa has already brought Lashed back home to the UK. In December of 2003, Lashed in Coalville was a sold-out event, and upcoming London and Liverpool shows in early 2004 promise to reach the same height of success – www.lasheduk.com It is impossible, however, for Lisa’s talents to be constrained to DJing alone. She has produced Tidy’s two biggest-ever selling hard house tracks, “Unbelievable†and “What Can You Do 4 Meâ€, along with “Lookin’ Good†and “Dance 2 The House (Don’t Go)†for Tidy, “We Came We Saw†for Sundissential, and “Give It All You’ve Got†for The Originator. In addition, Lisa’s mixed albums for Tidy, Slinky, Mixmag, and Euphoria, which include a gold disc for Hard House Euphoria and a silver disc for Extreme Euphoria Vol. 2, have been acclaimed by critics and embraced fans. Future releases include studio collaborations with BK, the biggest hard house producer in the world and many more! Rest assured that whatever Lisa Lashes does, she does it hard and dirty, it’s her favourite way! Written by Caroline Hansen

Boy George CRASH LONDON

Carl Kennedy is actually from the UK but plays in NYC with GBH. More of a New York - flavored house style. He was also reagrded as Best Undiscovered DJ by Pete Tong. No small compliment. Steve Porter's style is energetic progressive house. You'll hear him play different styles, maybe a little 80s mash-up. He's a superb producer and seems to know all the nuances for getting a dancefloor going. www. djsteveporter. com I would highly recommend seeing both DJs!
