this is kinda weird, one place says essential mix, the other says essential selection, which one is it. i think essential selection. It's at 12:30 PM so I can't make it- work - you know that annoying thing we gotta do to get paid.
FRIDAY JANUARY 31
SPECIAL

If it's a Friday,
then it must be the Essential Selection. So shouldn't be Essential Mix. Unless they are gonna prerecord it on Friday night and play it back as the Essential Mix the next night. Tong has his moments is what I have heard - track selection wise, his mixing is pretty ok - not greatest by far.

What's the deal with that link for email? I tried it and I haven't heard back. I will am going regardless, but the cheaper the better. Any words on Centro? I have never been.

The Essential Selection is on Fridays, 1-4 pm EST (or more precisely, 1800 - 2100 GMT)
So the thing on that afternoon is probably the broadcast for the Essential Selection
The Essential Mix will probably be a set recorded from that night's event, then broadcasted the following evening
You'll probably hear either Tong and/or Onionz http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/events/new_york.shtml
btw, catch it when you can - another Gatecrasher resident, Ashley Casselle did the Essential Mix on 1/12, and is still archived (but probably not for much longer) http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/dance/essentialmix/
If you make it to Ibiza, try to catch Pete Tong on the Space Terrace (most likely on a Sunday). I've heard that he is a lot better there than at other places. He sure had quite a following when I saw him there.
