From what has been announced for january so far, I am actually happy to hear there are going to be locals taking over Pacha. It's going to have a bunch of the usual sullivan room djs and a lot of these guys from what I've seen try to survive week by week as full-time djs, and have my respect for this (more than bigger djs). It would be nice to see something like this monthly at crobar too.
On Robots, when they brought Trentemoller to Cielo in October it was ridiculously packed. And they do Pacha every once in a while. But I think the Robots chose Cielo because of the sound system, the layout, and the fact that it's intimate. Being in a place as big as Crobar makes it so much more impersonal. Packing the place would not be a problem to these guys. There are a few Techno acts that could draw big crowds (Hawtin, Sven Vath, etc., etc., etc.), I don't think they want to be part of the machine though. Otherwise they would have sold out and Bill Patrick would be elsewhere doing even bigger shit.
I'd still go to Robots parties no matter where they are anyway.
