taken over by guest djs?

Dec 2006 - Marco V took over the main room.. Mark Oliver only got about 2 hours to spin at the end of the night... those 2 hours were AMAZING but it should have been much longer then that.

no, the gift was also on the same night...I believe Mark Oliver did his old school house set as the opening set for Marco V...then after Marco V, Mark ended off with his old school trance set...

yes...but the reason the gift was that night was because it had to be rescheduled. I believe it was suppose to be the week before.

Personally the gift hasnt been top notch since 2005, Marco V's set was amazing that night and Mark was good but IMO last year's gift sucked ass and he plays to many "club" hits not "Guvy" hits.

I won't be going this year. Put on some crappy cheesy Global Gathering CD and you have the gift the way its gotten.
