Volume is definately also a good night, but it isn't purely trance, it doesnt become trance till late in the night.
Strangis would have to be the best Trance DJ @ Volume, and he's also part of the 5am crew. But hey.
Each to there own 
mann... can't believe this was asked ..
Steve and Chris are by far ruling melbourne !!
Steve more history then any other person on TA.AU and when he gets on the decks people feel so good coz of his confidence
and Pana boy is creeping up there slowly with energetic performances!!
soz JPL i haven't heard any of your material so i cant say anythign bout u.. hehe..
oh and armin .. lol
Beautifully said Ev, spoken like a true genius
U go girl! wooot woot lmao
Still on for that room, with the extra addition offcourse haha 
Would I be the best DJ on TA if I played exactly the same tunes as Tiesto? 
IMO you'd be the worst, but thats cause im one of the few who thinks tiesto's new stuff is junk.

U talk about playing tunes you like, which is what they also do, the tunes they like may include BIG TUNE X or BIG TUNE Y, but they're not playing it because tiesto or armin etc.. are playing it, they're playing it because they love the sound or the feel of the track, and having the talent they do, they're able to throw it in at the right time to make the crowd go OFF! 
There are always going to be some tracks which everyone plays, white room, ATRC last year, simply because they are massive tracks. Sure Armin, Tiesto etc brought them to prominence and to our attention by flogging the promos but if it's a brilliant track then ppl would have started playing it anyway.
The problem comes when DJs look at an armin or tiesto playlist and think that if they go ouy and buy all those records and play them they will be equally as good, which obviously isn't the case. That takes no skill whatsoever. Anyone can learn to beatmatch and play armin's setlist, what will bring you success is having your own distinctive style.
I agree with Escee, that you play for yourself. If you didn't surely we'd all have record bags full of britney and hip hop. Like anything you need to strike a balance. There's nothing wrong with chucking a vocal in here and there if you know that's what the crowd wants.

ok, am not a DJ yet (still languishing in the bedroom, haha!) but ive always thought if people are enjoying whatever you play, then it shouldn't matter. I know if I went out and heard an awesome set by some local, and then found that exact tracklist online that one of the big jocks did recently, well, i wouldn't care coz i had an excellent night at the time.
if we all love trance so very much, obviously our tastes are going to coincide quite a bit, and people playing the same tunes as someone else is inevitable. while its different if you hear the same track several times in a night, i dont mind hearing that track (assuming i like it) over several nights.
buying vinyl is expensive, so in my experience youre only ever gonna go out and buy stuff to play live that you already like, and i make no apologies for being a "big-tune" slut!
