HAHAHAHAHAHA
hahahahha. Adam your "anti-azim and tazix" comments never get old.
I'm sure it will be a good show Mirka and I support any show you do cause your awsome but there are some pretty negative vibes floating around about tazix.
People don't like him much here...
Akeel should be good tho!

the thing is love him or hate him Tazix draws people.....nobody comes out to see me spin (sorry but it's true for Van...........I know I can pull 500+ in regina)
The point of having a clubnight is to have people in the club.
Dennis draws alot of people. Maybe if you guys would actually show up on a regular basis I could book different acts more often.
For example: 5 people showed up to see Vlad spin.......FIVE.
I tried to book Walsh but he is drowning in beer in montreal :S come home Sean!!!!!!!!!!!!
I also have to work with three other guys who have to agree with who I want to book. Not easy, alot of egos are invloved and it gets messy.
I don't have the luxury of a weekend night so it makes it that much tougher.............
I play from 12:30-close if it makes you happier. Personally I don't really care. I don't see any of you running your own night (Danny and Sean excluded for obvious reasons)
The Darren Pearce show was not cheap. And trying to get people to go to that is like pulling teeth. Eventhough he mixed reactivate series 15-18 and is awesome.
You guys only come out and support if it's someone like Tiesto, PVD, or Armin...
Support your own for godsakes.
Sorry I know I am on a major rant but I have seriously had it. None of you even came out when I "battled" Azim..... something that Azim and I though would be fun (and it was)
As for the Anti-Azim/Tazix alliance..........that is just plain mean.
If you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all.

Props Mirk, I for one know how tough it is. It's hard enough on weekends; I don't think I would even have it in me to promote on a weeknight because Vancouver's scene, frankly, is weak. There are maybe 10-15 TAs that actually go out with any regularity, and at Viva we'd be lucky to see more than a couple of them on any given night, so don't take it personally =)
Promoting has got to be one of the least rewarding businesses out there; unless you have hundreds of thousands to play with then the amount of work involved compared to the amount of money actually yielded is less than your average job at McDonald's.

Thanks for understanding Sean..........not alot of people understand how tough it is and think I make gobs of money to play every week. Truth is none of the res have been paid since we each spilt $90.00 last sept.
We don't even have a bar tab.
DJ's that come spin amaze me with asking to be paid...........so I make this deal with them. Pull over 50 people WHO PAY and I will give you half the door.
I can't pay you if there are 5 people in the club, but i will buy you a drink. I have played for free tons and will continue to do so. I just want to play, because i honestly love it.....
Sean/Danny I admire you guys so much because you are exactly what this city needs: hard working, honest and passionate about THE MUSIC ....
Thank you
regardless it will be fun..........hope to see some of you down, if you haven't met me before i am the firey red head with hammering tracks
