Thumbs down Big names who can't cut it

Just back from the white isle and I have to say certain DJ's really dissapointed me.

Jules - absolute horse, the man looked more intrested in packing the DJ box with as many people as possible and getting to know them all whilst drinking champagne. Of course this led to pathetic mixing and even running out of record at one point. Dire.

Fergie - the worst piece of DJ'ing since I saw Dave Pearce. The guy is crap, full stop. His mixing was mediocre at the best of times and his tunes where, bar a couple, mince. He complains about being labled a hard house DJ then he plays mincey hard house tunes.

John Kelly - who let this man become a "superstar DJ"? He plays tunes for neds, can barely hold a mix together and voila, he now holds a Manumission residency. One to avoid!!!

these djs you named may have had a lousy performance but i think thats not enough to say they "cant cut it". surely we all have heard their sets whether live or on an mp3 from the net and most of them kick ass.
but maybe youre right and they have become complacent not caring what the crowd will think of them as theyre already great names on the scene

For me Fergie is consistently dire. He was brilliant when I saw him at Godskitchen opening party, Amnesia, last year. I have saw him 5 times since and he has been pathetic each time!

I used to defend Judge Jules as others slagged him but the past half dozen times I have saw him now he has been rubbish, I grudge paying £20-£30 to get into a club to hear a DJ who I believe is not as good as myself lining his pockets with my cash. Call me big headed if you want but I firmly believe that Judge Jules lacks technical ability when he is mixing.

John Kelly just plays the most cheesiest ned-fest tunes out, every set. I witnessed his dire set twice whilst in Ibiza, both times he played the same tunes in the same order. That shows me that he is also lacking in skill!

I have no doubt that they were once good DJ's but, especially the latter of the 2, perhaps its time for them to take a look at themselves and ask if they can do it anymore!

I have heard alot of bad things about Jules lately, bad gigs, tunes etc.
But Fergie? I have his Essential Mix and I like it and hes also playing here this weekend so i hope he is going to put on a good set with some whopping tunes!

John Kelly Played the same tunes twice. That shows He doesnt even r4espond to the crowd. mind u PVD is the same. He played the exact same tunes in the same order more or less. Check his home in london E-mix tracklisting and then watch the PVd live @ mayday video that was on TA aw while ago. Tunes like infernal machine, dj remy, En motion truth, VDM no hesatation. Exact same tunes in the exact same mixing style and in the same order.
