Thank you.
I can see where people can have a gripes with Guv in terms of Talent Booking, but there's a reason they've been successful profitwise - They do what works. Admittedly they'll take chances now and again, but in terms of trance they can't constantly bring in smaller, unestablished talent that just picked up DJing in the last 6 months (due to one of their singles getting picked up by a top jock, undoubtedly) and expect to turn a profit.
Mind you, I do feel that Guv does overlook some Trance and Progressive talent that I feel would go over well (Notably Super8 & Tab, Andy Moor, Smith & Pledger, John O'Callaghan etc.) but I completely respect and understand their booking process.
If you as a fan feel that other notable talent deserve recognition or the privilege to play @ Guv, there's no harm in lobbying the talent co-ordinators and promoters (to a degree - keep polite.. lol). Any interactions I've had with them have always been friendly and although they very much know what they're doing, helpful hinting never hurts.

LOL at you thinking Space was too small
Amnesia definitely felt like "home" the second I walked in the door though. I've heard that a few times from TOTAs...I wonder if it has to do with Guv, b/c it did for me.

I said it was amazing, and i was trying to say that sometimes partying at home is more comfortable than being off somewhere else.
And yes space (miami) is small. 1/2 of the club is a vip area and the other is the main room...lol at you for thinking otherwise, its an opinion. Compare it to Amnesia and tell me otherwise.

the Guv caters to every crowd out there Ravers-Clubbers-Hip Hop-Ragaee-Rock Concerts-Corporate-Private partys they do it all thats why there one of the best venues in the city.....we are lucky to have a venue like Guv in toronto they have been around a long time and they'll be here for a long time to come.....they went head to head with the docks and pretty much won that.....now circa wants a piece and its going to be great for all of us cause were the consumers/cliental....there goin to compete for our money and dont be surprise if Guv picks up there game and fixes any problems they have sound/talent booking or watever.....
i dont think talent booking is that big of a problem cause they only book djs/artists that are able to draw a crowd and thats one of the reasons that kept them in business....

Dude, relax.
Graham is right...considering you mentioned Space and Amnesia in the same sentence, I assumed you were referring to the bars in Ibiza. I've never been to Space in Miami, so I wouldn't have any idea how small it is. So LOL at YOU for not being clear and then jumping on my back.
And if you could read English properly, you would realize that I was saying that when I went to Amnesia I had the feeling that I was at home b/c it reminded me of Guv. I thought that's what you were claiming there, as you mentioned how much you loved Amnesia and then partying at home right after.
You need to be more clear with what you're saying before you jump on me

You're asking her to read properly when you can't even spell properly.

Quoting Armin. The guv is a lack of options in my opinion. I guarantee if they dropped an amnesia here or a space the guv would go under. I don't know if i would have had space (miami) in that spot either. Soundsystem and atmosphere is great but its very small??
Perhaps you should learn how to read, this was from my first post..
