Originally posted by Heinz forreall?? i think the amp is electronica type. they play it on the radio sat. nights, the house night. i fu*king hate how im the only one i know addicted to trance... theres nobody i know, i can chill with, go out with, who listens to trance. its all about reaggueton, and hip hop, there not that bad, but its not my scene. EDIT: they brought sasha last dec. 26, and feb. i think

Yes, they brought Sasha here twice but do you realize that it took Tampa 4 years to bring him back here??? He spun house music both times so it wasn't even trance. He's still a good DJ, but I want to see them bring in more people. The last time Paul van Dyk was in Tampa was in June 1999. That's almost 5 years ago. AND PvD said he loved it here in Tampa. So what the hell is the problem? The Amp brought Oakenfold to Tampa on March 2, 2004 and what does he do? Walk off the stage during his set. He spun a little trance, but his set was a mixture of everything. He let some breakbeat DJ from up north close for him. ??? Of all the big names to go after they pick someone that hates spinning in clubs and showed complete disrespect for our town. I guess I appreciate the effort, but it just left me thankful that I was going to Ultra that upcoming weekend. Tampa needs to bring Ferry or Armin here. Both of them love to spin...they could care less about the size of the venue or how many people show up. Orlando is moving in the right direction. Last year they brought Tiesto, Ferry, and many others there. Tampa is stuck in a breakbeat time warp. Our idea of movement is remixing hip hop songs into breakbeat. No offense to all the breakbeat and hip hop people out there, but the same sound everywhere you go does get old. I'm sure that other towns are tired of trance, but no one that lives here can make that complaint.

You didn't miss much.

PvD was the best and last act of the night.

I think Sander Kleinenberg, Pete Tong, Junkie XL, Tiesto, Oakenfold, Ferry Corsten, and Paul van Dyk all had good sets. Tiesto and PvD both went off. PvD closed that place with an awesome set. The trip was well worth it for me.

lol, its incredible how people refer to Sasha. the trance crowd always says he is playing house, whereas a house crowd, like 99% of this country is, says he is just way too trancey. haha, just amusing. i'd say ive got the best of both worlds.

Believe me...no question in the world that he spun house and breakbeat. When he has spun around here in the past he spun trance. The last time that he was in Tampa (before 2003) he spun trance. When I saw him in Jacksonville years back he blew the roof off that club with trance. I definitely know the difference. Back on 12/16/03 after the lights came on and people were leaving he asked to play one more song to "test"...as in to test the waters. He spun a trance song. People stopped dead in their tracks and looked at him like he was crazy. Some people even yelled "tease"! Playfully of course. The talk around town was that a lot of people came out expecting to hear trance. The music wasn't bad...just very monotonous at times. He still had a really good set. I just wasn't expecting him to spin what he did.

ahh dunno.. i think sasha is more trance than house. ask the people who were at the amp that night. ask arturob, darkace, etc. they were there.

where in tampa do u live. im in west chase, in the west park village, close to linebaugh and sheldon..

I didn't say what he is...I said what he spun. He did NOT spin a trance set. No way in hell did he spin a trance set on December 26, 2003 at the Amphitheater. He didn't regardless of what he is known for, has spun in the past, or spins at other venues. You weren't there so you couldn't possibly know. He spun house and breaks.

You just turned 17...right? Not to be rude (which it will sound that way anyways), but I'm way too old to debate with a 17 year old that hasn't even graduated high school yet. You seem like a nice kid so I am not trying to argue with you, but please don't question what I do or don't know in the future unless you have something to back it up with. If you had been at the show it would be different, but you weren't and you're talking about things that you know nothing about. I don't care what someone told you. Don't act like you know better than me if you weren't even there. I don't need to "ask" anyone anything...I was there. I started listening to various forms of "techno" when you were singing along to Sesame Street. I think I know the difference between breaks, house, and trance.


On a lighter note...

Word is out that Tiesto will be at The House of Blues on June 20th.
