Originally posted by epdarks You claim to be open minded, but you listen to Armin van Buuren? The most popular, mainstream, visible artist in electronic music? What's so open minded about that?

I hear you with the comments towards Armin being mainstream etc... and I totally agree with you.

But for a casual listener such as myself who doesnt d/l music anymore or hasn't ever DJ'ed in any capacity, his mainstream stuff might just always seem new and fresh. Also the "played out" anthems aren't played out when you don't listen to the music like years past.

So hating on Armin or the whole trance scene isn't so founded. I'm not new to the scene or unknowledgeable in the subject, I have just been a bit more occupied with life than the EDM scene over the past few years.

It's easier to go to an Armin show and know what to expect, than to spend time that I don't have to search for and listen to lesser names so I can be open minded.

Dude seriously, get a life. If you are counting on a trance music message board for your entertainment, you have some issues. If you don't want to go to the show, no one really gives a shit.

From the tone of your post, it sounds like you take this board more seriously than me, and yes I do use this board as entertainment. So I say a couple things to get you talking... and all I get is a personal attack?

I'm just trying to ruffle a few feathers, and I appreciate it when people do the same to me. Prove that Armin can play a decent set, and then I'll stop w/ the hate.

Truth is that AVB refused to sign one of epdarks' Armin posters and Armin action figures and that is why epdarks hates AVB so much

I dunno, maybe I'm being over the the top. It's not just Armin... it's all of the big trance names. As I lost hope in them I lost hope in the entire genre.

This thread is GOLD..

LOL!!

I have to be honest, as bad as the Prog/Trance scene has been in Tampa I'd pay the money to see Blake Jarrell...anyone agree?
