I mean, first of all, Amsterdam is a really cool city on so many levels. I was always curious about that is it really like the electronic music mecca that it's made out to be, or is it just a cool space to be when everyone's there? I don't need someone to tell me where to go and have a meeting. I know it's very worthwhile for promoters and management but I find if I need to talk to someone or have a meeting about something, I can just pick up a phone. I don't really go for the business meetings and stuff. I tend to just go in for a couple of days. I also played Circoloco as well, which was on a Saturday. It started at midnight and I played all night until 7:00 a.m. That was on Sunday, so it was an ADE closing party. So this year, I decided to create my own event in ADE of course I just called it "Lazarus." Because people in Amsterdam would totally get it, but anywhere in the rest of the world, it's just my second name. You know what it means, Lazarus, in Dutch?" And I was like, "No, I have no idea." And he says, "Well, when we go out on the weekend and then your friends call you in the week and they're like, 'What did you get up to in the weekend,' you're like, 'I got really lazarus.' It means to get really wasted." And he said, "I've got to tell you that your name is the best name in dance music. When Tiësto arrived, he made a beeline directly to me and was like, "You're Damian Lazarus, right?" I had no idea that I'd be anywhere on his radar. So we went and they took me to the green room. Many years ago, I was in Chicago about to play a show and the promoters said, "Oh, do you want to come see Tiësto play? He's doing an early evening thing." I'd never seen him play before, so I was really intrigued. I had to tell him about what I did at ADE because it was because of him that I started something new there this year. Funnily enough, I was just at lunch here in Mexico City and saw Tiësto. Thank you everyone in Amsterdam that came and helped us make this a night to remember and special thanks to and all the guys at the club for helping us make something so specialĪ post shared by Damian Lazarus on at 8:56am PDT This was around 7am this morning at the end of a 6 hour session, I think my face sums it all up. what a night!!!
