I was there @ The BBR when Ali was there....he did a pretty good job, infact I was there when Steve Porter was there...Benny B ....all these DJs...they all did an alright job. I hope Armin does a good job, but from a business stand point, if one had to choose where to do a better job and put in a conscious efford...I would choose to do a better job @ Labour of Love and Stereo than BBR. I hope he does a good job in Windsor, cuz I have been jonesin to see good DJs in Windsor (aside from Wild Orchid)its too bad that they just started to come when I moved out of that town....the atmosphere is nice...cuz I know Renaldo and Remo have put quite a bit of effort into BBR. I wish for Windsor, Armin does a great job, but you KNOW he is gonna tear it up @ Labour of Love. When I see a DJ spin...I dont pay money to see him play the same track..same sequence...same mix...that he did in his previous gig. I am not paying $20 so he can stick his arms out to the side and pretend he was flying. I guess I am used to the DJs putting in their best effort, and NOT used to them just riding on their name for a response from the crowd. I know about 10-15 people who are gonna be there ..and gonna see Armin for the first time...and they have already, psychologically, set their mind to having a good time..not letting the DJ do what he is PAID to do...by throwing down some SERIOUS mixing. PS Deep Dish (Ali)....even though it was a good show...not even CLOSE to being one of his better sets. I WISH I was there till close, but I had to work in the AM so I left at 3:30.

PS I am not FROM Chicago....but I have been partying IN Chicago for the past 10 years.

There is NOTHING wrong with a small venue...infact..I PREFER a smaller venue over a HUUGE one...like Bal et Blanc...or Sensation White...or Creamfields. A more intimate atmosphere is perfect...assuming the DJ's step up to their expectations....I have seen Deep Dish when they do a smaller venue in Toronto, like Ultra, or SoundBar in Chicago; they did a GREAT job...but to a town like Windsor who has only HEARD of big names....but never actually SEEN what MAKES them the #3 DJ in the world....they will love ANYTHING he plays...so of COURSE people are gonna think he did awesome...cuz everyone has already set their minds that Armin is gonna kick ass...but for a person who is used to seeing him do a WICKED set...this is NOT gonna be NEARLY as good.

The offer to stand on my patio furniture still stands baby.

i still say there is something fishy about someone who signs up to a message board with the sole intent of bashing an event..

Kind of coincides with my idea that some people are pathetic.

Originally posted by JahRastaToo HAHAHA...That was not my intention. I am sure he did a great job @ Dragonfly. Did anybody catch his set @ Bleu Room in Detroit? or The Necto in Ann Arbor?...THEY TOTALLY BLEW! The sets that he threw down in Montreal, Amsterdam, Toronto and Miami....blew me away! I HOPE he does a good job in Windsor, but there isnt much pressure for him to DO that well in Windsor. He KNOWS that the crowd will eat up..and LOVE ANYTHING he plays....cuz he is ARMIN...and he is in WINDSOR...that in itself is the reason he might KICK ASS...but not by his ability to DJ...or play some crazy mixes....but because he is Armin..and he is in Windsor.

Maybe we were not at the same night in Detroit cuz I fucking loved that set. Zocalo, Summerdream, Serenity.. summer classics.. and a small venue on top of that.
