*Disclaimer: After some contemplation, I decided not to share this on The Love of Music Project due to the album review being published there already. This also reflects my own personal experience of the event.
For those new to this "blog" and myself Brooke Brown, I urge you to check out published content from years passed. You will see a pattern of my allegiance to Markus Schulz over the years once I discovered the beauty of his open to close sets at various venues throughout the world. I have had the honor and privilege of interviewing Markus on my podcast Trending Topics with BB, and the topic of open to close sets more specifically at the infamous Avalon Hollywood has been discussed. However, the tradition of this venue and the journey of music and good vibes for an average of 10 hours continue to reign supreme.
When the announcement of his album 'Rabbit Hole Circus' and the subsequent tour at venues allowing Markus and his team to showcase vocalists & aerialists to encompass the "circus" vibe along with masterpiece full length album, Avalon Hollywood was among the list for this August 19, 2023 extravaganza. Please take a look at the photos linked here for some highlights or head to my Instagram.
What can I say other than I had a blast dancing my a$$ off for at least 7 hours. Hence, the disheveled state I am in (with the biggest smile) in the photo with Markus above. According to my health app on my phone that was in my pocket all night, I took well over 30,000 steps from walking around and dancing throughout the night. Once the performances were concluded, Markus did what he does best in the early morning hours known as the "rabbit hole". It's where the dark, twisted, and wonderful vibes of music are showcased and where the inspiration of the album over the years arose.
It has also become a tradition for Markus Schulz to ring in the New Year for many years. Therefore, the tradition will continue in 2023 to ring in 2024 at Avalon Hollywood. This won't be a night centered around 'Rabbit Hole Circus', but I am sure we will hear tracks from the album scattered throughout the night. Yes, I will be attending this as well as it seemed like the move for the New Year celebration. It's great to see a partnership with the
Dreamstate brand through Insomniac and another
opening set from Tim Clark. This event will ULTIMATELY SELL OUT, but to get your hands on REMAINING TICKETS, please visit this link:
