I've heard that PVD does not do drugs....

The big record companies aren't picking up Trance artists and promoting them along with Moby or Eminem because our music brings such a following of drugs. I would like to less drug use and more love for Trance driving people out to my live sets.

No... the reason Trance isn't the new 'dance' music is it's too long, there are more legal issues with all the sampling (though thats debatable) and it's too hard to put a sellable face to the music. Labels like their poster people. They sell the image of the star as much as they sell the music.

The drug thing has very little to do with it... it's just used as an excuse. If you think otherwise then explaine the popularity of Hip-Hop. Shit, that's a big part of Snoops popularity (my ass he quit). The majority of gangsta shit has drugs in it... just listen.

It's all marketability and the population at large. If you want Trance to hit it BIG find a champion who's face can be sold. If you look at DJ's (generally) as they get more popular their tracks get shorter.

I heard from a friend of mine that Nick Warren took a pill when he was in Iceland... Anyway I hope that no-one of you begin to dislike an artist only because he does drugs, it's about the music ppl!

One thing I was wondering about was that Marco V doesnt smoke pot! Dj Noise offered him some and he said no last year.

bwahahaha!!! Marco smoking pot? anybody let me know if you see him do that, i will eat my shoe

NOTE: not all Dutch people are on drugs

drugs are part of the scene.
either get over your stupid society forced aversion to them, or do what you preach, focus on the music and forget about what other people do.
**sorry, i just get annoyed when people are all upset about drugs being linked to trance and whatnot

I know Christopher Lawrence does alot of K. My friend opened for him in St. louis and he was shoving K up his ass all night.

Biggest Drug Abusers as deejays

Sandra Collins big on coke & heavy drinker. When she used to lived in Chicago (back in the day) she was normally late for gigs & would show up all jacked up.

Oh, that's what the problem was!!! Pfft... I thought it was the "bang-bang-bang-swoosh" was not really simple enough for average moron listening to "top 40" on local radio. Plus, you got to admit - the Rock and Roll was all about just Sex and Rock n Roll, no drugs involved. Come to think of it, none of the Rockbands ever played wasted. They were just clean-cut preppy boys in bow ties, playing their slightly-rough "boo-up"....

Such a bullshit. To be quite honest, you can't explain most Trance to most of the ppl who didn't do dr00gs. c'mon... get real.

P.S. Speaking about Moby - his Area shows had ZERO searches at the door.. Plus, since it was held in the concert areas, not clubs - you saw everyone from 11 year olds and up. I cannot tell you how many 13-14 year old candy kids I saw wacked out of their skulls in the tent when Tiesto, Digweed, and Cox were spinning.

So, shut it... In the words of Iky: "Dr00gs are good, Mr. McElroy! Dr00gs are our mates!"



/happily retired from dr00g scene

P.S. I saw Cox's ridder - it actually lists the chemicals he preferrs to help his performance.

All concerts with like the exception of Yanni atract drug use...the problem is the US where you can go to a concert, do drugs and get hurt or killed and then sue the venue. If people were left responsible for their own behaviour, there wouldn't be so many problems in having raves and such.
