Ok

Again, your comment flys in the face of the fact that whatever "style" you want to tack on to those "big names", trance is still less popular than house as a known form of music, at least, in the states.

And please don't take my word for it. Try it out yourself.

No. Maybe where you live, but no.

Originally posted by UWM No.

The fact that virtually any club in america will play house music over trance belies whatever you choose to believe.

That being said, I'm not interested in having a "yes", "no" contest.

You aren't? Well then I guess we'll all just accept what you say as fact because, well, you aren't interested in anyone refuting what you have to say.

I'm sorry, but this is not at all true.

Where exactly have you been out across the country? I'm not looking for a "yes" or "no" here, I'm looking for a body of evidence.

They're just coming out of the woodwork this week.

Would you like to tell me right now that most clubs in America (besides the primarily hiphop ones) are playing trance music MORE than house, or are you actually willing to show a little honesty and concede the fact that I'm right without me having to actually give you all of the scientific data that George Washington existed?

Don't bore me with your semantics.

And if you really want to know, I've actually had the privilege of visiting every state in the USA (including Hawaii and Alaska), so I guess you could say I have a fairly accurate idea of what the club scenes are like coast to coast.

I figured this thread was on track for it anyway.

Yes, we've already established that you're quite jealous of my body. Now if you don't mind, I'd like to know what else you'd be willing to contribute that is non-ad hominem.

Why are you looking for me to make statements I:

a) Have seen no evidence of?
b) Genuinely don't believe in?

Furthermore, why are we bringing semantics into this? Am I not writing in a manner that pleases you? Are you upset that what I've seen isn't consistent with what you've seen?

Why do DJs like Armin van Buuren, Paul van Dyk and Tiesto have to have their shows moved to venues outside of regular clubs? It couldn't be capacity issues, could it? No! They aren't more popular than house DJs!

Okay, you're right. The world is flat.

So you've been out to clubs in all those states, right? I know they have a big club scene in Montana. And watch out for Boise!

I'm trying to post something smart in this thread, but i can't.
