I've been there a few times...but haven't noticed him yet.


This guy at sensation was some small little white boy who was probably on E for the first time haha. I saw him and his buddy popping a few behind us in the stand for a bit, then all of sudden he was in the upper balcony wailing away haha...

What if all that cheering is "annoying"?

Originally posted by AnitA LOL I whistle like a hooligan, enough to make your ears bleed.........only at a soccer game or concert....when it's the right atmosphere.

What if by using the same premise as stated in this thread somebody argued that soccer games arent the right atmosphere for whistles?

What if somebody says "i come here to watch a ball get kicked around, not to have some guy next to me whistle loudly"

What kind of a boring soccer game would that be?

Whether or not a whistle is appropriate for a club or soccer game is a matter of opinion. If you dont like loudness at either events then may i suggest a library?

just don't do it in my ear

Nice to see things haven't changed much aroud here..

Jayx1's analogies are still about as on target as Dick Cheney on a hunting trip.

Since I took a shot @ you, might as well tear this craptastic post apart.

You know what the overall problem with whistles in a club scenario is?? They are a single act, one APART from the overall act of the group's focus (the music), and one that overpowers the group. It's intrusive by nature.

No-one is complaining about loudness, it's loud fucking music blasted @ whatever deafening volume is needed to fill a room. The complaint is it distracts and DETRACTS from the event @ hand.

Comparing a soccer game with no specific audio focus where a collage of sounds at different levels is the norm to the conflict a whistle causes in a enclosed club setting is ridiculous.

There is no comparison between the two scenarios, one has abso-fuckin-lutely nothing to do with the other.


Now, whistles @ outdoor festivals, I doubt anyone here gives a shit.

A 6ft5 sketchbag standing directly infront of the DJ booth @ System, blowing on his whistle like his mom does her tricks, directly in the ears of the closest 30 or so ppl, fucking sucks.

Context, learn it, love it, don't come of as such a douchebag in future.

It would matter at a soccer game if the person complaining was right next to the whistler and didnt have a choice whether or not to move.

The biggest complaint ive read here is that "they blow it right into my ear"... well what makes soccer or concerts any different?

If you dont like whistles then thats fine. But at least come to accept that they are part of the party. If not, dont go. Quite simple!

Whats next? You dont like how someone is dancing so you push them out of your way? Wait wasnt that another thread on here some time ago?

All i see here are uptight partiers

Trance Addict Party Mantra (Otherwise it sucks)

-Cover must be $5 for 30 Djs otherwise they are gouging

-Club must be Half empty so I can flail

-people should only be reacting to the music how and when I would

-glowsticks only ifI happen to like them, otherwise they arent cool and should be banned

-Headline Dj must point in my direction and wink or else that Dj has no crowd interaction and sucks

-Drinks must not cost more than they would at the LCBO or else its "gouging"

-Air must be below room temperature. If a TA breaks a sweat, the club sucks for not properly ventalating.

-anyone who dares to try and liven the mood by saying "fuck yeah" or whistling is a total idiot because i didnt think of that idea myself. Of course, when i come up with a gimmick it will be ultra cool because i thought of it and everyone else will be haters.

-people who talk about "vibe" at a club and how important this is to a good time are old school.

- The club owner/promoter must not be allowed to make more than $50 or $60 profit on the party, otherwise he's a slimeball and is an opportunist

-Drugs aren't cool unless I took them

Did i miss anything?

whistles aren't a problem. But the bastard ****s who spill water on the floor cause they can't dance is. Those bitches need to be slapped on the spot. Everything else I can tolerate, but why on earth you need to make the dance floor slippery is beyond me.
