what you people fail to realize is that LP and space dont care who you wanna book. even tho the crowd was decent for a sunday nite, it was mostly populated by nineteen years olds who maybe bought one water and probably shared it. its pretty obvious that armin nite didnt make enough money to warrant a further booking by space. the guy is a business man(and a shrewd one at that), and if he isnt going to make enough money to cover operating cost and churn a NICE profit, he's going to cut his losses. why take the risk of running a club for some kid fresh out of highschool to take too much x, pass out for water intoxication/heat exhaustion, and bring a bunch of unwanted publicity to your club? the answer is its not.
the facts remain the same the only trance DJ who will turn out a profit EVERYTIME is tiesto. thats it. they could book him on tuesday afternoon and he would sell the ****** out. and until someone comes along with the charisma, stlye, and track selection of a tiesto, space will not be the place for trance for some years. you guys can keep dreaming about SVD, BNJ, Marco V, and any other trance dj with a europeon rep, but its not going to happen. ever. hell even PVD, the #1 dj in the world got relagated to friday nite on the terrace no less. trance for all intensive purposes died back in 2002. i can maybe see ferry(who could handle the room like tiesto) but him not playing there during conference wasnt a good omen for the future.
maybe twilo can pick up the slack, but space isnt going back to booking str8 trance nites anymore, this has been becoming more and more evident every single year with space. trance is phasing out. it will have to be either coupled with something else or WMC. hey guys, i love a great trance set just as much as you, but the proof is in the pudding, and i dont mean to be negative, just realistic. someone prove me wrong. but that the facts are besides you guys and few other enlightened souls, no one gives two shits about trance in clubland miami.
ps- my insights above pertain to MIAMI, not the rest of the world, dont misconstrue  |
You make lots of valid points, as usual.

Armin plays pretty good in Canada, so LOL wouldn't be a bad choice for you.
