As for Tiësto, I had some deception with the attendance lately in Montreal. In December, we lost a shit load of money with him. Tickets were not selling fast and that much. There was only 2200 people for him wich is a disaster considering our expenses for this party. Bal en Blanc, it's a different story and the trance room is always more packed than the house room. Bal en Blanc was really big last year not only because of the bookings but because Montreal was on a big hype with raves because the last parties were really good (Cream and Celebration). We were involved (Aia/Guvernment) and we did some amazing bookings (and crazy promotions with our clubs and teams) and these partie were full of people again (because during 2002-2003 these parties sucked). Just Aria can sell about 1500-2000 tickets with the promoters, something 514 can't do.

We tried to do these parties but we don't believe in it. We lost a shit load of money because of our partners errors (like booking hip-hop at Swirl/514 idea). There is just 2 parties that are interesting in Montreal and it's Bal en Blanc and Black & Blue.
Venues are too expensive and when 514 wil understand that, they will stop trying to do these money holes parties. Actually 514 will try to find a partnet because you need money to do this and you need bookings wich they can't afford or book themself. I heard a rumour of Godskitchen, but this company is not in his town and they can't do shit. They tried to organize parties in TO but it didn't last even 2 months.

I find it funny to need people from UK to organize parties in our own town. Go fuckin away! We can do this ourself!

we have good parties here yes... but we can't even begin to compare parties here to parties in the UK or Europe... there just isn't any comparison at all.. 2 totally different atmospheres for sure and it is hard to recreate that here...let alone be allowed to.(outdoor festivals included in this)

as for Tiesto.. You would know the cost that goes into having him at such clubs.. and if you aren't making any money off having him there they why bother.. I don't blame you one bit... and Aria still has amazing bookings.. Montreal just has more of a range of what people like to listen to which makes it harder to keep everyone happy.. here in Toronto everyone is all about Trance for the most part anyhow.. with some of us who enjoy house, progressive or techno so because it is all trance here.. Tiesto sells out no problem.. completely different scenes from even Mtl to TO..

That is just the way these things go.. and I guarantee if it is PVD playing at Aria while Tiesto is at Circus.. more people will be at PVD just cuz he hasn't been in this area in a while now where as Tiesto is here every 6 months for sure!

Maybe one day it will happen. For now 514 still owns the trademarks and they manage their parties like they want. The thing is when you don't have a club to book dj's, it's really difficult or almost impossible to get the big dj's. 514 use to own Sona but now they manage Circus wich is not booking anything.

And BTW, like I said, Tiësto is playing a other club because a guy from Toronto wich is really close to Tiësto is doing the party for Tiësto at Circus. Same thing happened in TO with Tiësto also.
Tiësto and the guy keep a major part of the tickets sells.
I will never accept that a guy from Toronto come to rule my club in Montreal and keep all the money of the ticket sells.

Oh yeah, Toronto is a completely different story.

For a show with Tiësto or PVD they can have 4000-5000 people.

Here it's about 2000.

Thanks for taking the time to explain all this to us JF. We appreciate your patience.

Just keep up the bookings, man.

edit: By the way, armin at aria vs. tiesto at circus would be a very close call. I'd even go as far as to say that they'd be neck at neck. I know a BUNCH of people (granted not 1800 :P) who'd take armin over tiesto ANY DAY.
