1) AVB not nearly as good as PVD
2) AVB comes here often, whereas PVD has last been here one and a half years ago. If PVD came to TO every few months, there wouldn't be that many threads about it.

I do think it's kind of funny that people get all hyped up about PvD basically because he shafts us in terms of DJ appearances. And when he cancels, everyone says "Awwwww, don't worry PvD, we'll be waiting right here for you whenever you're ready for us!"
Don't take this to heart, I'm being facetious, but seriously, people who do this with girls are called saps. He may be a very GOOD DJ, he may be a totally amazing DJ, but he is just a DJ.

Here's the quote from PVD's website: Paul van Dyk // Toronto
We regret that Paul van Dyk's scheduled performance at Viva - Toronto on April 20th will have to be postponed due to the reported cases of SARS in Toronto. Paul van Dyk does not want to endanger anyone's health by causing them to attend a crowded venue during this time. We hope that you understand that this decision has been made out of concern for your own safety. Of course we will do our best to re-schedule Paul Van Dyk for an event in the near future and hope that you will all come to enjoy the music at that time without any health concerns.

Your point being?
Did AvB cancel? Did Satoshi or Cattaneo cancel? What about Sasha and Max Graham who are spinning a week or two later? Have any local DJs refused to spin?
I guess those DJs just don't care about our health.
Don't get me wrong, I totally understand his concern for HIS health, but I think it's pretty lame for his promotional agency to be saying that he did it in the interest of OUR health. I also think that's pretty fucking arrogant to say he doesn't want to "cause anyone to attend a crowded venue" - as if people would not go out to any club unless he was spinning?
I give PvD the benefit of the doubt (having never met him) and say that he is an awesome DJ and probably a very nice guy as well - his agents, on the other hand, are another story...

You are forgetting that AVB and other aren't spinning in an asian-dominated venue. That comment is indeed bullshit, but I can totally understand why PVD would cancel. I would've done the same.
