I personally like to have a few drinks, while at the club. I also require a few drinks, if I'm gonna play. It may be a bad habit, but it loosens me up. People just have to learn how to moderate themselves. Fights aren't too common, here, in our clubs, but it does happen. I'm not sure that a lack of alcohol would make much difference though. It's definitely an absurd idea that clubs would stop selling alcohol though. Why? Because it's their main source of revenue, and because more people want to drink than don't. If you don't need it, good for you, but you can't impose that everyone else thinks the same way. Just keep your head straight, and avoid the drunken idiots, and you should be fine.

hehe, I dont think I agree with banning drinking, I do get kinda upset when people start thinking that the whole point of a club is drinking though. But people going crazy is just part of the fun I think.

but compulsary drinking, like everyone who come in must be legal to drink, or everyone must drink to keep the club in business, that is the stupid side of reality I guess. I just wish I could find a club that tried things a little differently from most clubs, fucking capitalism, sigh,

Sandly you people are still missing the point of Music in general. It is never about the music. It's never about the alcohol. It's never about the drugs. Its about going out and having fun with the people you like and love.

I think it is actually the repetitive nature of electronic music that causes people to become agressive, and start attempts to physically injur others, as a way to release themsleves from the stress this mindless talentless music gives them.

All forms of electronic music should be banned from north america, hopefully europe will follow.

Re: Alcohol should be banned from clubs

thats a bad thing, it exists here as well...
we organize a few trance parties in my town and we dont like drug-alchool-junkies.
personally i drink A LOT, if the dj plays tracks that i like i'm buying him a shot (plus one for me ofcourse)
i rarelly dance, i just want to listen to trance music in decent speakers (than my shitty p5800's)
i dont fight, i'm not looking for chicks, i dont care about anything
i just want to listen trance loud

Gutted. Although he did play Darkroom and Cirez D - Control Freak.

Happy.

You see, this is the problem that these sort of events have. Picotto isn't a regular punter in this neck of the woods, and as he's a recognised name he's going to attract that mixed crowd; where half are there to hear the man play, the other half there because they've vaguely heard of him before. It's generally a small portion of the second group who will end up acting like ****s.

This kind of behaviour happens far less frequently at the smaller events, but as soon as someone like Picotto plays here the band of idiots will re-emerge.

If you want to drink go somewhere else. if you want to dance to good music you are welcome. if you can't have fun without alcohol then get a life or go somewhere else or drink afterwards.


Drastic? So many of us (yes, that's me included) enjoy a drink or twelve on a night out. It helps our little introverted nation get into the swing of things I guess... C'mon, even Mauro was drinking over the course of the night, and I didn't see him getting into any fights!

I think a better way to prevent idiots getting in would be a little questionnaire from the bouncers...

"So, who's playing tonight?"
"Mario..."
"Nope, Piu isn't here, so fuck off."

ROFL

I've been to see Picotto here before and I know the stupid chant that seems to emerge, no matter where in Scotland he's playing:

"MARIO.. MARIO.. MARIO PI.. COTTO"



He's playing June IO with Chris Lawrence and Above&Beyond (and JJ...), so I might pop along to that
