NYCC After Dark: Adult Swim's Tyrannic 3rd Maiden Voyage
By Dimitrios Haritos
This year Adult Swim held its 3rd Tyrannic Maiden Voyage that took place late Saturday night off of Pier 81. We arrived an hour and a half before boarding and waited in line while a fan went around entertaining people. They had a great system getting everyone on the boat and this year they got an even bigger boat than the last 2 years.
Once we got aboard we got our sandwiches and drinks and went out on the deck to watch the ship depart the port. With a dance floor and a DJ spinning, everyone was quick to get into the party. Finally, they call the special DJ Flying Lotus and the crowd went crazy and he did a great set of music that kept everyone pumped.
After the set we went back out to the docks as we sailed passed Ellis Island and The Statue of Liberty and everyone on the deck began taking pictures. We turned about and headed back from our 3 hour tour and we went back down and danced until we docked back in the pier.
As we came off the boat we were treated a poster and a bag as we headed off into the night. My biggest let down was I was hoping some of the stars from the adult swim roster would have shown up, but all in all it was a great night and I'm glad they continued doing this and I can't wait for next years.
