We need to change our spoiled attitude in Toronto, then maybe DJ's like Ferry would come to our TA pre-party meetings like he did in Montreal.

People are allowed to be critical, especially when they are paying some exorbiant price to hear a DJ. And you have no idea why Ferry attended the Mtl pre-party, do you? You're just assuming that it has to do with Montreal's "non-jerk" attitude.

There is a fine line between being critical and bashing, I find we here in Toronto tend to bash DJ's more often than being critical of them.

Amen to that.

People are entitled to be critical if the DJ fucks up a set or does something unprofessional (i.e. Sasha, or PvD in Montreal from what I've heard). However, when people start criticizing a DJ over his tracklist when they know that DJ's style, when they've heard dozens of his sets, etc., it's ridiculous. "I didn't like 1 set out of the 53 this DJ has spun, which must mean that all of his sets suck." And let's not forget the classic "This trance DJ sucked because he didn't play any prog house tracks." Or "he concentrates too hard, he doesn't get INTO his sets enough." Or "he's so lame, he spins CDs instead of 100% vinyl."

DJ bashing is ridiculous.

and people...TIESTO DOES KNOW OF TRANCEADDICT....and people report back to him...same goes for several big name DJs...TRANCEADDICT is a huge phenomenon and all those who bash DJs are just blind to that fact...

i agree 100%
but alot of those "bad" posts comes from ppl who usually don't know the DJ too well. Personally i think u cant judge a DJ from only one night.

dam right any dj could have a bad night, you never know, they are human too...
other people just bash dj's becasue they don't like them...
I guess everyone has got an opinion, and another point is that there will never be a single dj that everyone will like, so each dj will get bashed some time or another...

exaclty it pointless, you start arguying about other stuff and the whole main topic of the thread gets changed...

if people wanna bash dj's or get their point accorss than start a new thread, and not make us read stuff we don't want too...

ex if there is a thread about a meet up and people start talking about something else, personally I don't really feel like going through all the post and trying to find info out what the thread is really about and where it went off topic...

keep it simple and stick to the topic
