I think thats a really ignorant thing to say, have you ever considerded how much Armin cost to bring in? We are lucky to have Pure promoting Ive been to so many events for free, look at Soundbar last week it was free all night and they gave you a drink ticket, what more can you ask for? God only knows how much they are paying Tiesto Jr...er I mean Armin

Posted by wolverine16 on Oct-14-2005 17:20:

Like others, going to miss Armin for the 1st time in a couple years. Just booked a trip to Boston to visit some friends and can use the $100 this would cost for that. Armin should be great as always though.

What does he charge for a chicago like at Vision? just curious if anybody knows....

Posted by Spliph on Oct-14-2005 18:18:

presales for PVD @ Vision are $36 right now and they'll probably go up in price as it gets closer to the date.

Posted by ctprincess on Oct-14-2005 20:33:

i think tickets for armin started at $30 and then once a block of those tickets are sold, the price jumped to $35 etc.

means that the show is probably close to selling out

i guarantee that pvd tickets will be at least $40 closer to the event

the promoters are trying to get ppl to buy early

Posted by Gedas on Oct-14-2005 22:25:

$41.00 presale
$4.25 NON-REFUNDABLE processing fee

$44.25 to see Armin, now thats getting a little expensive I think.

Ok, this conversation has gotten very interesting.

I definitely understand that people are miffed about paying $$$ to see AvB and PvD, etc. When DJs get to these ranks, then they can charge more, and they should, it just makes economic sense. I'm sure we would all do this. It is nice that we have good promoters who can pull these guys in for those who love these DJs. Yes, it sucks--but it will still be packed to the brim.

For me, it comes down to the music. Despite the fact that AvB is getting more and more expensive to see (and some think he is a comercial sell out, blah, blah, blah), I think he is absolutely worth the $35. I listen to his ASOT almost every week and really dig what he spins. Whenever I see him, I have an AMAZING time--never regretting that I went. I guarantee you I will have the same attitude this Saturday--he will deliver.

I mean, hell, I spend a ton of cash to go to Miami every year for the WMC and I drop a wad on drinks at the club, so going to see a cheaper DJ whose music I don't know or like as well doesn't make much difference in the grand scheme of things. If I did like the cheaper DJ better, then bonus. I bet Andrew K or Ben Lost would come to Chicago for a reasonable price. I love it, so that's why I do it.

Just my 2 cents. Hope to see a lot of you all there.

BTW.....

Lucid (Myra), I dig the new avatar! Jaytech - Music 101 (Flash Brothers remix) is one of my favs!

I really think you and Rob should come to AvB

So our opinions are somehow less valid than yours and amount to nothing more than 'blah, blah, blah'? If you need substantiation of these claims I'd be more than willing to provide examples of these sellout accusations.

At the end of the night, as long as your $35 for Armin is worth more to you than $0 for Lee Burridge then that's all that matters.

I really just didn't want to go searching for your afore mentioned statements. And yes, I'll spend the $35 to see AvB and skip Lee. Look forward to your review though.

Posted by glass on Oct-15-2005 01:14:

as long as I can still get a pre-sale tomarrow morning, I am there....

I plan on having a an excellent evening

oh and how about a roll call from the people that can spend the cash for this show.

Rob and Myra you'll kick yourself if you miss this show......

I'm not going to Lee. And I wasn't trying to be a jerk, I'm just saying that different people enjoy different things. I hope you have fun tomorrow

yea i've been obsessed with quite a few Flash Brothers sets lately.

as for Armin, Rob and i would both really love to be there... hell, Armin is kind of the reason him and i met in the first place, heh... but we're kind of trying to save ourselves for Lawler next weekend. i've seen Armin 4 times in the last 2 years, and i've never seen Lawler.

honestly i wish i could see Lee *and* Armin, they're both amazing DJs who put on amazing shows, but i think both Rob and i are in dire need of a "chill" weekend.

Tony, James, & everyone else who is going - have a great time! Armin does not disappoint!!

Are you going to Lawler or James Holden or are you headed to Miami for Sander? I can't remember, but I think you said the latter. Should be amazing!

Got my ticket , I'm in
