armin - april 14 - at plush, vancouver

i dont remember seeing any specific threads about armin's show, so i'll just throw this out until kraig posts the official announcement here

armin will be at plush, friday april 14, 2006
tickets can be bought at clubzone for $45 ($52.11 with sc) for the first 100 or something like that
so if you want to go to this party, better get your tickets now

i've seen armin enough so i dont think i'd want to spend $50 to see him again, but im sure this show will sell out, as did the previous few times he was here

I recall it was $30 last time around ..

Something's wrong with this picture.

yeah, another reason why i'm not planning on going
i guess i'm glad i've seen armin for $20 in the past

I know they don't have to .. but!

Are there any Twisted representatives reading
this forum that can justify a reason for the price hike?

It seem very high for such a small venue.

I'm very curious wheather Armin raised his rates
after his ARMIN ONLY step up the ladder to TIESTO-dom?
Or is it somebody at Twisted eyeballing that new mercedes they
always wanted ..

So is it ... greedy Armin or greedy Twisted?

I'm really contemplating attending this show but, it'll be
my birthday, so ... hits the right time of year at least.

Price is a joke

Armin isnt worth 20 $


Posted by exergo on Feb-24-2006 04:48:

$50 is dumb

but undertsnadable..it will sell out. i don't blame twisted...

if tickets were $20 twisted would easily break even with 1,000 people paying, but i gaurantee scalpers would also have a field day

and it's not like i don't like armin...he rules ...it's more about this shit that gets associated with djs nowadays...

i paid $20 for front row bloc party tickets....yet a dj.....lol


Posted by apri_peel on Feb-24-2006 05:09:

it's also plush, the venue is expensive and im sure the owner knows he can jack up the price and still make money. i'm sure its a lot of different factors at play here

i almost paid $50 to go to see the philip glass orchestra play at q.e. theater tonight to the koyaanisqatsi. and that's a live performance by a whole ensemble

you gotta remember tho, armin is the 'it' he is what tiesto was 4-5 years ago when tickets to his parties were $20 from ticketmaster and $150 outside commodor. anything that's big and popular will always cost a lot of money and make a lot of money

all of TAs can choose to not attend the even, and it will still sell out and twisted probably wouldnt care much because we are not the money generating crowd at their parties

I'd way rather pay 50 bucks to see an ensemble of professionally trained musicians performing a piece by probably one of the best composers alive today (although i don't really like that film score), plus the fact that he is playing with the ensemble is badass.

50 bucks to see a dj throw some cds on is _way_ too much. but you are right, id do the same if i was twisted hehe

its too bad more people here don't like prog, theres a fatty lineup at lotus the next few months and the most expensive ticket will be maximum 20 bucks :P

Armin PWNS!!!!

Newsflash from Twisted:
PAY UP OR SHUT UP !!! .. hehehehe
Don't like it? Go and see the orchestra you lousy
broke ass trance addicts! We don't care about
your stupid forum and "vibes". It's all about
the benjamins, so get in the commercial DJ loop
and everybody sing along!

" We're so stupid we pay $50 for a guy playing CD's !!! "


Posted by eye_03 on Feb-25-2006 01:00:

wow $50 really is a joke. but, sadly, ill probably end up paying it because my 2 friends who are just starting out listening to trance really want to see armin. brutal pricing tho

its not a lousy orchestra lol
its a minimalistic soundtrack to a pretty cool documentary
therefore its ELECTRONIC MUSIC


Posted by jmix on Feb-25-2006 01:29:

$50 for the first 100??

Bend over! Armins in town!


Posted by Tayfoon on Feb-25-2006 01:34:

dude armins a wayyyy better dj than tiesto.

thats bang for buck though, as compared to such.


Posted by Mark on Feb-25-2006 02:18:

its funny to see that these EXACT comments were made about tiesto only 3-4 years ago. its also sad to see that every little puke think they know whats wrong with trance these days.




the price is set. suck it up or don't show up. thats pretty much the bottom line.

dude, you know you'll be there .. I'll be there, so will Elena
as well as Jeff, Angelo, Mark-o, eye3-o and everyone else
who bitched in this thread ..

And here's why ...

Because we need it man, it's in our vains, our blood.
The trance junkies needs their fix!
Oh yeah man, it's like heroin - but BETTER!
The thrill of the crowd, the excitement in the air,
the buildup of massive energies that lead up to
the ONE and only OUR-MAN VAN BUUREN !!!!!
I'll see you ALL there!


Posted by apri_peel on Feb-25-2006 02:51:

yeah you are probably right, you bastard.





EDIT: tix prices were around $40 i think when he was here in sept.


Posted by Kraig on Feb-25-2006 17:40:

Sorry for the delay on posting this as I was out of town all week and am just back now.

I've posted the official event thread here - http://www.tranceaddict.com/forums/...threadid=327324

Armin's price went up as he was named #3 for the 3rd year running. We've had to reflect that in the price of tickets.

That said, extra sound, lighting and staging will be brought in just for this show.
