Originally posted by anthonyattalla no doubt it can be done and I would love to do it, but are the masses at that time ready for that? what is the crowd like that day? who are you playing to? all these things come into consideration while programing what you want to do and where you want to go depending on your surroundings at that particular time. even comfort zone. the crowd has been drastically different each time i've played. a three hour minimal set is possible and is it is done all the time where i'm from but minimal is all over the place and many here (at least more than most cities i've been to) are listening to it on a regular basis. that said, even us detroiter's like a variation of styles and genres in an extended set to show the versatility and programming ability of the dj. i think it makes it fun and shows how well you've prepared when you blend several genres in one set..

I agree with you completely. If you're rocking out the minimal and the crowd is standing there with a "wtf are you doing?" look on their faces, you should probably stop playing it! That said, again, I think if the circumstances were right, a minimal set could totally be done at the Zone. When I say a minimal set though, I don't mean the whole set has to be minimal, but the majority of tracks will be, and almost all of the tracks will have "minimal elements". I agree with you that it can be fun to have a versatile set, but it can also be fun to stick to one genre provided you can do it well.

I'm going to see how my school timetable works out. I may not be able to go to Sneak's bday beats afterall, and if not, I'll definately be checking you out at The Gallery and The Zone on the following weekend.

It was another amazing time ... I can't wait to do it again !

that's a deal...hope to see you there. and, nice points...i agree with you as well. the zone would be a perfect place for a well thought out minimal set provided you had the right crowd...thanks for the discussion; i'm already lookin' forward to november.

THE FIRST TWO HOURS I REALLY FELT GOOD SINCE I HAD ACTUALLY GOT SOME REST AFTER MY GALLERY SET. THE LAST HOUR WAS TRYING AND I WAS PRETTY WORN, BUT I THINK I'VE PERFECTED THE "ONE-FOOT BOUNCE" SINCE MY LEFT IS SPRAINED. MY FRIENDS THAT WERE BEHIND THE BOOTH WERE CRACKING UP CAUSE THEY SAID MY RIGHT LEG LOOKED LIKE A POGO STICK! YOU ALL GAVE ME THE ENERGY I NEEDED FOR THREE HOURS AND I THANK YOU FOR IT!!! CZ IS MUCH MUCH LESS SKETCHY THAN WHEN I FIRST PLAYED IN FEBRUARY AND SEEMS LESS AND LESS EACH TIME I'VE BEEN BACK INCLUDING YESTERDAY. THIS WILL BE GOOD TO GET MANY MORE INTO THIS ROOM WHERE MUSIC IS GOD AND PEOPLE TRULY DO LET IT TAKE OVER. I FUCKING LOVE IT! SEE YOU ALL IN NOVEMBER (I THINK MY NEXT CZ SET IS THE 12TH BUT I'LL KEEP YOU POSTED). THANKS AGAIN FOR AN AMAZING WEEKEND!!! AA

i've been going to cz for a year now.. and the past few months i've noticed a decrease in sketchiness.. anyone else notice this? i wonder why this is

oh i dunno, i've been going for a few years... and the patio just keeps gettin worse and worse. same thing has been noticed by some of my other friends who're long time zoners..

The patio was just as if not less sketchier than Guv's patio...

I agree the patio is still quite sketchy but the zone itself is less sketchy. Used to see big biker type guys and more strippers on g++, but not so much anymore. I think those types are staying away because CZ has been getting some undercovers working lately from what I hear, perhaps due to the November incident last year. The bouncers have also been on a mission actually checking people's hands with flashlights and checking the bathroom stalls. There has been a definite effort to clean up. I have heard stories from the past that don't happen there anymore.
