"Well maybe should (undiscernible after he trails off and walks away to the next customer to ruin THEIR night)".... |

Wow look at that tracklist, complete snorefest. I've always been a fan of Armin but seriously, wtf is he doing? Besides a couple tracks, everything else would put you to sleep.
That tracklist looks like this...
SOOOOOOOOOOOOO glad I didn't go. Fuck Pacha. They suck.
all i gotta say which no one has touched base on is...REMY FUCKING KILLLLLED IT! 
he should DEF be boooked to headline here ASAP- just a hint for the promoters!

i agree with this 100%.
tonight was a disaster and i am someone who is no longer loyal to made events. hopefully in the end this stunt will have cost them some money in the end. i should have heeded the advice of some people on this board.
but some things not in their control.. armins set was just wack. no real flow, PVD's set 2 weeks ago owned armins set tonight.
and its safe to say i despised about 73% of the idiots there last night... total douchebags... ive never been so close to pounding this one dude into the ground and believe me i am NOT someone who starts drama...
terrible vibe....
one song he spun was M6- Destination Six... it was th tune of the week during ASOT 322
One of the best nights of my life, I didn't touch the dancefloor until like 4-5 though because it looked way too crowded. I was on the 2nd floor though and it was fine against the railing looking down and dancing.
Anyone stay around til the very end? What was the very last song he played?
and i dunno what everyone is bitching about, christ you guys are babies
Yeah, we have standards... Oh how awful! 
Guys, dont blame anybody for a crappy nite. I mean really, u went to an Armin party and he sucked. Hmmm, somehow the "I TOLD U GUYS HE WAS WACK" voice comes out once again. I mean sure, theres the whole Pacha sucks thing, but at least if the music is good then u can sort of tolerate it (like Carl Cox a few weeks back-despite shitty crowd musically it was the best nite out in maybe 3 yrs for me). DJing wise, AVB would have been wack whether it was at Pacha or at MSG with only the true hardcore AVB fans. But somehow, u guys seem to think his stuff is the shit cause he got famous and has a few gigs here and there, some CDs and his own ASOT show and is now some sort of Britney Spears icon of the trance scene. Like I said before, there are DJs right here on this board who could play way better than Armin and dont cost nearly as much to see (SSU and Coreevents).
Friend was there until likely 5:30AM and heres a txt msg he sent me that made me go 
Armin show is slamming. But this club Pacha is the best I've ever been in!
Now he is a big AvB fan and has gone to Ibiza this past summer still though I don't believe Pacha in NYC is the best
TRANCE BOMBS from about 3:30 am and beyond

| Originally posted by rizo Very true however their name doesnt bring in the big bucks |
even though hit was crowded, I just love being on the floor with all that energy.
Also first time I saw 4 different fights break out in front of my eyes, all more hilarious than the next. These fights were great because it freed up more dancing space for me.
Also hearing "Lift" was really nice.

| Originally posted by Neo95gt hahah def some crazy shit going down last night, so awesome. Except for the time some gay crackhead dude tried to take off my pants and blow me. Like some dude actually was molesting me and managed to get my belt off, he wouldnt stop so I punched him in the face and some bouncer kicked him out |
You know, @ first the night was awesome because I was digging Remy's set. I actually was really excited because he was opening. I haven't seen him since the last time he played @ spirit about 2 yrs ago. It's been a while.After Remy finished I bumped into marcello and he wasn't feelin Armin's set. @ first didn't think much about it. But as the night progressed, I just wasn't feeling the vibe either of what he was playing. It just seems lately that he plays stuff that doesn't have a vibe anymore. A bit boring. Not enough climax's like trance used to have. I guess it's not entirely armin's fault since this is type of production style that is fluiding the scene. So yeah I'd have to agree with senor Eco on the musical program of the night. Not up to par @ all!
As for the crowd, WTF!!!!!!! that place was fuckin packed. (Reminded me of the time Tiesto spun @ Avalon in 2003/2004) I was kinda kool about it because I definitly was expecting this. Him being #1 and all! Shit load of people will come to see him just because of that. Pacha over packing the place, is something that to me will never be regulated in a moderate manner. It's a business and all Venue is going to see is $$$$$$$$$$! As for the promoter though, they do whole a responsibility to make the experience as pleasent as possible for the consumers (Meaning Us Party People). But as for the price of the ticket, part of it could be that Armin could have raised his fee now that he's #1! IMO........
Over all I give it a 6 out of 10..........and that's me being a bit nice

| Originally posted by DJ Eco No one's blaming anyone for making money.... But when there's zero risk of failure for a certain party, you HAVE to have some sort of balance between money to be made, that doesn't ask you to rip out your eyes or chop off a finger for entry, that makes your loyal customers happy... McDonald's could obviously raise prices and make more money, because people will always go to McDonald's, but that's just not how it works... There's a certain line that's crossed that goes from "getting your money's worth" to "getting owned". You can't put Armin in Sullivan Room and charge 100$, and so on... It doesn't work that way. |
