^^^
Ahhhhhhhhhh the pimp... i mean the legend himself
That's some fine barbie doll he has now, i prefer Marcella though.
I just remembered that bloke huging the barbie doll in the pic, got his records signed, and some fool hit his hand and all his signed records dropped onto the ground lol, hope none broke.
gumble, again it's called un-biasim.
she would definatley be worth a slamin for one night! 
I havent joined the pimpsters yet, so i'm keeping them all to myself for now... hmmm, may bring some to Huey in Perth??
... as far as agreeing with gumble, it was purely accidental
Those photo's remind me of the late 90's when everyone used to look like that (haha, hevent seen too many people wear sunnies inside a club for a while) & there was glamourpuss everywhere... Darey is stuck in an Ibiza timewarp... however, he's making the cash, snatchin the gash... & gives us a role model for the pimpster game ... so more power to him
Try getting him to move to Sydney & he may help the trance scene come to the fore!

Why does Sydney Suck so much for trance??
I don't understand why....... not enough people interested is my guess.

Where them chickies go, they will follow.
RNB!!
RNB!!
RNB!!
It's true, i was at my local club/bar up the road from my house last week. they used to play trance/dance now its completly rnb, and there is definatly more chicks there!! all the local chicks go there now.. rnb is what killed trance!! even when i hear peoples music in cars, its rnb!! because as soon as the try hard people of sydney heard the try hard rappers from america singing about whatever, they were attracted to this, they all want to be as cool and tuff as fifty cent for example, and the wog chicks these days love it!! (no offence to wogs, i am one!)
my two cents,
i agree with what others have said that you need to atract new people to the seen & also get those people who will go to the big events but but not to a 'normal' night to come to a normal night
when you say a trance night most people will think of sublime and if they have been there in the past and not liked it they will most likely not go to another trance night even though the music is totaly different
i dont know how raido works but it seems that they play a select few trance songs and people love them but they never seem to add more songs to their play lists...
also the djs , clubs , producers dont have a high profile like i read something on trance.nu about ferry corsten and how his big tracks have been in the UK top 40, so in the UK most people would know of ferry but here ask some one & most people they will have never heard of him
so if you have him or any other big dj it wont bring that many new people to the event because they dont know who he is, but have him play a MOS event and you have a full house...

It did actually take me a while to find trance. I used to go to Home Gas etc, and it wasn't until I heard a DJ play at a house party til I knew that the music I loved was called trance. Before that I thought trance was like psytrance.
I always liked Gatecrasher compilations and when I went to the GCSSS I heard some very awesome trance being played but I still didn't know where else to hear it.
I think one of the main problems in getting proper trance (ie uplifting/melodic) away in Sydney is that every promoter here advertises their night as Trance and Hard Dance...Progress, Sublime etc advertise trance, but play nothing of the sort unless it's german hard trance.
They are both two very different sounds. One driving, aggressive..the other floaty, softer and more emotive. I love uplifting stuff, but can't stand the hard shit.
I think trance fans get put off by the big nights in Sydney.
To me...it's just not trance at all.
There are some great ideas amongst this post and some even greater intentions. There are only a small crew of us here in Syd passionate about the scene to the point of wanting to make a difference.
Perhaps we all need to unite together to promote a bigger night here...I spend 80% of my weekends either interstate or in NZ. Would sure be nice to have a gig or two on the back doorstep.
as for Sublime, is it just me or does everyone look bored shitless, head to the ground.
The best atmos I have seen in there has been for PVD and AVB.In fact after AVB, everyone just went home.
If only the promoters could see past the "old guard" and let some uplifting trance into that main room at Home...the bloody roof might come off.
I've submitted many CD's, all the time being told my music is too soft...then they put AVB in there. Looks like they only care about the music when an international is in town

), you'd have some decent contacts from your work. If anyone in Sydney's going to be able to get something going, it'd be you. I doubt it's a possibility for you to run your own night (due to time constraints and your DJ schedule), but is there anything more you can do to help those in each state (IE brand them under your name or something)...I'm not sure if you have the "pull", you're 1 of 2 DJ's in Sydney that are playing regular inter-state gigs, that should count for something?
