What do you prefer?

Have been thinking about this for a while, and i saw it posted on another website.

Do you prefer going to a festival with 20-50 Dj's with a variety of sounds or would you rather go to a club that has 2-5 Djs at most that play a select genre which is programmed properly.

Interesting article with interview above.

I much prefer the latter.

generally dont like the whole larger crowds thing, just means more idiots you have to walk through to get to where you want to go.
Also means set time clashes which is a pain in the ass, lesser sound quality on the side stages eg. summadayze

Clubs.


Doesn't always have to be an intimate crowd, maybe 1000 people at the most is ok, but clubs, for sure.

one of the best gigs ive ever been to was the first time (i think it was the first time anyway) Kyau & Albert toured here...they played upstairs at the royal melbourne hotel before it had been renovated

the energy in that little room with such a great crowd was incredible, after seeing something as intimate as that it's hard to go past anything similar

not to mention kva really did deliver that night hahaha

Clubs - Ronski Speed @ Alitutude was off the charts

You tend to get better sets from the dj at club gigs as well

I prefer outdoor events but with a small number of internationals.

Future has gone overboard in recent years.

It used to be that they just had 5-6 big jocks on main stage, not 30 spread over six. It was much better that way I think.

events suck: intimate events ftw.
the big crowds create good atmosphere, but not worth the downs

ONCE ONLY?

wow

I prefer intimate club gigs, as usually an international plays more than 1 hour as opposed to festival type gigs. Also most important thing is that djs usually let more loose at club gigs than festival gigs where they tend to play to please the commercial crowd.

Ive been to club gigs before where the atmosphere was absolutely more crazier & fun than a type of festival I had been too.
Festivals can be heaps of fun though....Two Tribes, Digital & Sunshine People have been some of my faves!
