I think that ppl call DJ's gods because for that one nite in your life the DJ controls most of what happens in the club. If the DJ drops the right tunes then you can have the time of your life. There is a reason why ppl love DJ's so much, and that's because even though all they do is play and mix records they are able to take the entire crowd on a musical journey. PVD is GOD because of all the great nites that I've had when he is on the decks...no other DJ has come close to the kinda state that PVD's sets have put me in.

I'd rather say those producers like Dumonde, Corsten, Tiesto and who knows who else.. everyone has his favourites, I think THEY are the gods, without their minds there wouldn't be such great music.

In all honesty i often cringe just a tad when i hear people refer to DJ's as God's. I'm sorta thinking -- get some perspective fellas.
Even though it's probably just another way of saying "You guys are good, you make me feel great" i can't help but cringe every time i hear it. (and i'm not a religious person btw)

exactly; believe me thanks to dj's I've had amazing nights too....but think of the wrealm you're talking about....it's so small....I don't know......I just think that if you're gonna call anything god....it shouldn't be a person.......If your girlfriend/boyfriend makes you feel amazing......do you call him/her god? Makes no sense to me.

As far as I'm concerned DJ's are just conduits for something bigger.....the music.......which is a conduit for something bigger---->the feeling...........and that perhaps is what you can call god.

Glad I'm not the only one that feels sees this.

Ok, how about I put it this way, since I remember me and a couple of my buddiez coming up with this theory a while ago:

The Dj is our God, the Music is our religion, and the Club is our church!

Now if you're a true trance addict, just try and tell me you sometimes don't feel this way too!

Cmon peoples!! For goodness sake, i didnt mean they were gods as in from out of this world or anything, and its not as if i worship them ffs. I mean it METAPHORICALLY! Do you think i shouldve named this thread:
"Ferry is really good"
It just doesnt have the same ring to it does it? And on that night Ferry was in control, he MADE all of us had a great time, and the music was very powerful. Go see and experience Ferry with hundreds of other screaming fans hearing the music you love played so loud you can't hear yourself talk....then come back and have your say.

as a matter of fact......I have partied with hundreds ofpeople at a ferry show.........I loved it.........so much......

I do feel like it's a religion.......but it's just my opinion......and that is that I do not worship the DJ; okay.......I worship the music.....and the feelings.............

to tell you the truth; even if I didn't feel in any way that it was a religion......you still cannot say that I'm not a true tranceaddict.....who are you to say this.........

anyways......no offense sorry for being aggresive....but the are no absolutes.....you can call a DJ god if you want......do whatever makes you happy....I just think it's unnecessary........that's my opinion.

oh yeah........can the club be a mosque or a synogogue as well?
