PVD Unable to play at Global Gathering

For those who are going:

Paul van Dyk is very sorry to announce that he is unable to play Global Gathering today

"Due to serious illness in my family I won't be able to attend Global Gathering, as I need to be at their side. I'm really sorry that I have to do this, but I hope that everyone can understand that family and loved ones are the most important things in life. I will offer a Club Gig as a replacement as soon as possible - due to the long booking arrangements, it is likely to be November. I wish you a fantastic festival and hope you accept my apologies" - Paul van Dyk

Look forward to seeing him at Air again, quite like the venue.

Good stuff, I always enjoy his sets at Air.

Its good to see that he got his priorities right. I wish him and his family the best.

yeah go PVD

good man

sorted

yer fair does to the guy. was slightly gutted, but eddie halliwell was a good replacement

not to sure about van buurens extended set though lol

heard rumours it's going to be a 6hr job too

Awesome.

i was pretty impressed with the clubbers in the Godskitchen Arena who applaudded PVD in support after realising towards the end of For an Angel that he wasn't going to be playing.

PvD took this gig down of his gigs page weeks back - it's obvious GKGG have know for some time he was going to be a no show. But only on the day did they let the clubbers know this.

Can't risk the sales going down. Cunts.

yep they always do that tho promise everything but not always delivering all the attractions they say. You should be able to sue Godskitchen under the Trade Descriptions Act would be funny if someone did.

One of my mates decided to have a bungee jump for �35 and spoke to the owner of it. Owner said he wouldn't break even as the site fee was over �30000! There were loads of stalls and funfairs so GK must make an absolute mint on just the rides and stalls alone paying site fees.

Really? Then why didn't they get a replacement dj to headline his time slot? rather than hear a cd being played to us

??

his slot was reaplaced by armin playing an extra half hour then eddie moving forward to play the remaining hour & a half. eddie's slot was then filled in by jules playing a 2nd set

yeah i know

but i would much have preferred it if they had put a replacement dj there instead of having the others cover for each other.

if i'm not mistaken when armin ended his set and pvd was supposed to come on, they played a cd version of For an Angel and eddie only came on a while later.

by then alot of us were leaving the dancefloor to the back of the tent to rest

if eddie or any other dj had taken over immediately from armin, it just would have been better. my 2 cents

i thought he did! mind i was pretty battered by that point and didn't have my eye on the stage much of the time

haha ok then.

anyway i just looked thru the videos i took. armin played shivers at the end of the set and then the stage went dark (with only the video screens on) and then one song was played (its title escapes me) followed by For an Angel when the whole floor erupted

but even then the stage was still dark. oh well doesn't matter now i suppose.

but i was quite looking fwd to seeing PVD (although i love eddie too) because i have not seen him in a while.

it would of been hard to book a replacement dj the same day they might have tried but couldnt get anyone.

sleepydragon: according to DJ Mikey Mike in an earlier post in this thread....

so if that were true i think Godskitchen organisers had some time before hand to engage someone else. even if it weren't a big name dj, im sure the punters would be just as supportive rather than let it go as it did on saturday.

I was free that night - hell i would have played for �0 instead of �25,000

seems weird that the gig was removed so many weeks ago but yet only two gigs were cancelled (the fri in Barcelone and sat at GKGG). Someting doesnt quite add up.

PvD at Gods could be worth the trip tho

PvD at Global Gathering is always shit.
PvD at Godskitchen Air is always good.

Everyone's a winner here whether you went to GKGG or not.

disagree, 2005 the first hour was the gods bollocks, real shame the EM was the second hour.

EM?
