Originally posted by sykadelik Operation Blade It was New Order - Confusion, the tune that Public Domain sampled for their track. Confusion was no sample as it was played for a good 5 minutes, I believe it went something like this: 21. Randy Katana - Play It Louder 22. New Order - Confusion 23. Marcel Woods - Adrenaline

Whoops hehe not heard confusion before thats the thing, thought aye up where did that come from excuse my poor knowledge

In reponse to all the talk about Andy Bagguley I actually thought he was quite good, mixing was good and Dogzilla - Without You love that tune!

i didnt go to the night but to be fair Andy uve handled the criticism very well. In all honesty the majority of the ukta members especially the more experienced ones of us all have become very picky after years of clubbing, about what we like and what we don't and although we all may feel we are right or atleast have a very good point it will generally be the 18-20 year olds (lesser experienced clubbers per say) that make up the majority of the punters for passion and most other trance nights round the country. Therefore imo those clubbers i guess should be the ones that are the target audience and the night should revolve around pleasing them, tho at times the moaning older clubbers should be listened to as they do very often have some good points.

anyway sorry to go off on a bit of a tangent

Actually Paul van Dyk has walked out of clubs hours early because people talked over his set. Make a note for next time maybe. Dont want him to fuck off an hour early to catch a flight that doesnt exist again do you?

I'd be interested to know the reason behind him walking out previously at Passion. I heard it was something to do with JFK wanting to go back to back or something?

Ive kept my ore out of this but ive decided to poke it in now. I went Passion most weekends for about 2 years and this "MC'ing" your all slagging off is hardly MC'ing. MC'ing is having some retard shouting his mouth off every 5 mins going "yea yea come on everyone, wave, woo, digging it tonight with mr DJ X in da house w0000t" - and thats hardly what happens at Passion. Ive never heard Andy on the mic but i doubt it'll be any different from what JFK or Dan Platten used to do - which was get the crowd cheering and applause the DJ at the end of their last tune, and then to introduce the next DJ on the start of the intro beats, which hardly ruins anything, and in the scheme of things gets the crowd rowdy thus making the atmosphere better.

Dan & JFK used to pop onto the mic prob once every 2hrs in the middle of a set, just to say "Come on Passion" and generally entice the crowd, but these were never during a breakdown of Urban Train or something silly, they picked their moments. So i think the abuse on the MC'ing is not really justified, and i think you've probably made a mountain out of a molehill.

Dave... Lets think about it.. I was with PVD for an hour before he played to ensure everything was ok and to generally make him feel at home.. I think I know a bit better than you how he was gonna react.. For instance: When the Mic is used at Passion, the monitors need turning down to prevent feedback. When I picked up the Mic, Paul himself turned down the monitors and looked at me to say it was OK to speak...

Don't preach to me about something you clearly don't know about.

Nobody has a prob with announcing the djs apart from a few idiots on here. Ive heard a lot of people moan in other clubs when the dj is not announced. Andy said that Askew told him after his set that it is mint when the dj is announced and he wishes that it was done at more clubs. Its hardly an mc is it.

He left because there were people dressed as cows? Odd.

When I was told about it the wording was 'he was never really comfortable to begin with & various things were getting to him'. There was certainly no flight, which was the excuse given, because a friend of mine was sat in his hotel room reading a contract til the next morning.
