As far as BenB goes, the problem is 2010 is their 20th bday and they had to come up with something spectacular. I'm really sorry to say (and me saying sorry usually doesn't come often) that they missed the mark unless they have booked something spectacular as the last act and, in all honesty, unless they have done a miracle and booked Daft Punk (btw new album out on nov 23rd) they have dropped the ball on their line-up and their roots.
BenB, however you want to call it: rave or house party, was alway about circuit house music, not only circuit house music but the best circuit house music. Now there is two things they could have done here: A) bring the biggest house names they could book and, if possible, the dj's that rocked the BenB the most over their 20 years (Mark Anthony is a great example here) or B) do the complete opposite and build a line-up with the future of circuit house music. I will actually say that I think that the addition of the trance room is a good thing as it will bring more people to the party and bring more awareness to their cause (and kuddos to whomever booked the trance room 'cause it's a great line-up), but by doing so they completly forgot the very people that made the BenB what it is right now. Sure the live acts and the dancers are still going to be there, and it probably will still be the best party of the year, but I'm pretty sure people are going to come back from the party and say that there was something missing from BenB this year.
I just hope to god that BenB doesn't lose its soul like BeB did when they introduced and "techno/trance" room.
i hear you, but not convinced yet, last year i was really expecting s&d to kick ass and no... dave seaman stole the night for me, never thought he would be able until then.
waiting for this year's surprise and who knows maybe ralphi and abel will be my highlight. who knows.

@ KrinKer: Ouch!! If I were Vibe or Chus & Ceballos, I would be insulted to be in included in the "circuit" (i.e. past room). Those are DJs that were tribal back then, but evolved their sound to include more techno, tech house and minimal, especially Vibe. As is the the case with Calderone and D-Formation.
However do I agree with you in that a nice way to do the lineup would be chronologically (combining 2 of your ideas). Start the evening with big DJs that made the B&B what it is today and maybe end it with names of DJs to look for in the future.
@Fran666: would that be your lineup for a "House room" or just a party in general with no specific genres ?
Like Spin said
B&B = Black and Blue
BenB = Bal en Blanc

The problem with their line-up also is that they won't get the people who would be "close" to going. Had they actually had a decent house line-up, I would have paid the 130$ + hotel + party prescription that the party requires, with this type of line-up, I'll keep my ass firmly glued to my couch and will have a great night of sleep afterwards !
