Originally posted by FunkyCrew I'm in still in awe how much of a tragedy it is to some people, wow

Why does it bother you so much that people are being vocal about their disappointment in the line-up this year?

People are disappointed because Guv has shifted their focus to a different type of music, effectively alienating a crowd who has gone to Guv's all-access Canada Day event for years.

On another note, sure it will be packed and Guv will make a ton of money, but why should we care about that? Guv has clearly taken the easy way out to make as much money as possible. This is likely a last ditch effort to fill their coffers before they get shut down in the not so distant future for the waterfront development project.

The line-up and concept of this party is void of creativity, is watered down, and geared towards the lowest common denominator type of clubber. Sure Guv will make tons of money, but good for them.

The Guv these days is a shadow of its former self, and is basically a mainstream club that does the rare forward-thinking, interesting event.

it's not even disappointment, it's outright tragedy posts, and I'm not the only one so pls don't single me out

as I clearly stated - it's just time to make alternative plans, and move on, it's just a party!

you really think pages and pages of complains will resolve anything? you yourself pointed out that

Kristina's point is that it's hardly the fucking tragedy some people are making it out to be... And she's right, the level of drama over a DJ lineup in this thread really does make us all out to be retards lol

Deadmau5 is a pretty big legitimate headliner... This party will be massive! Hopefully your tears are dry by then!

and because you are taking an antagonistic stance.

I personally don't give a fuck, lol. I've been to Guv enough times to not really care. Sure it would be nice to have music that I would like to hear at Guv on Canada Day, but if not, I don't really care.

Yes, but I am talking about All Access events. If you take a look at the line-ups of All Access events in the last couple of years compared to say the early to mid 2000s, you'll see that their focus has shifted slowly but surely to cheese.

As I said, I'm sure the party will have lots of people and I'm sure I could have fun if I was with the right people, but it doesn't change the fact that will be as mainstream and cheesy as it gets.

I can get over the fact that its not Lawler, having him here 2 weeks before makes up for it (sort of-ish) Its the fact the party has gone in a completely different direction.
It went from favourite party of the year to - would not touch it with a 10 foot pole.

I give full credit to guv for booking deadmau5 - the party will be packed.

But I still feel that I am entitled to be upset... and that being said this summer will still be 10 times more amazing than any other summer

someone could argue that the market has changed quite a bit since the mid-2000's...

besides, I like the commercial sides of dance music as well as the underground... I don't think one is BETTER than the other!
