The price could also be high due to DJ and Agency fee's.

All of you complaining about price should write a letter to Armin, his booking agency and management. The reality is that he is getting the majority portion of ticket sales, between an up-front guarantee and a backend cut of the final sales. Why is Armin not playing somewhere else? Because no other event organizers were willing to make the investment and take the risk.


edit: Vocal minority, you're jaded. go home.

If I were to write Armin it wouldn't be about this event, it would be about his chronic use of the word Trance. Just fuck off already and do what Tiesto did. These guys using Trance as a genre are shitheads, they know they can't change over to electro/house or whatever and be just as successful as the others so they stay in the genre and fuck it all up.

Oh and btw THIS vocal minority loved this music before the young fuckheads thought it was cool and actually most of them thought this music was for gays so yeah. I'll bitch and complain til the day Armin quits acting like he's doing Trance a favor.

At the end of the day, it is pretty obvious that the venue you promote and the bookings it brings don't get much play on this board. No one is going to attend a # friday at the amp with a bunch of dirt high school kids trying to get in to see some dubstep with a fake ID. I've walked past that line on a friday... no thanks. Markus or Ferry. I'll be there.

The Amp is horrible.

Nuff said.

My god who would pay to see this trouse fuck.

Opens asot 600 with zedd's cheese.

If the trance family supports this then their nothing but a fake trouse community.
