Above and Beyond
I saw them twice and both times they just played cheesy trance that wasnt euphoric at all and both times they played about as many oceanlab songs from 5 years ago as they played new music
terrible track selection live from what ive seen
Dave Dresden at lovefest
Donald Glaude at lovefest afterparty he made some really basic mistakes that made ppl walk out of his set in favor of ATB it was pretty sad

Especially with digging up of old Oceanlab material.
It wouldn't surprise me if Satellite worked its way into every one of their sets since its release.
Not that it seems to bother many of their fans.

Yeah because most of their fans don't have a very diverse taste in dance music, I was expecting a little better both times because I had heard some pretty good TATW sets..but then again they can't play satellite on every TATW it would be too obvious they don't try hard enough to diversify..EVEN Armin Van Buuren was playing sick techno and a bunch of obscure tracks and they were all sick EVEN ATB who i thought was the epitome of trance cheese was playing melodic techno and good trance
I wouldnt mine seeing A&B drop out of the top 20 this year same with tiesto if you don't even try u shouldnt be ranked in the top 10

Hey, ATB's first 'DJ In the Mix' mix comp wasn't all that bad, at least the first disc.
By the way, just had to remark upon your Santa Cruz residence. I made many a trip there from 2005 until 2007, seeing as my girlfriend moved from SF to SC to go to UCSC.
Spent a lot of time over on Pacific, including the Streetlight on Pacific (which actually had a decent Dance section); the Taco Bell on Mission (up from Bay Street) and of course that glorified carnival called the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk.
Oh, by the way, your sig is huge; might wanna trim the size down a little bit.

That's interesting. Although I've never seen him, I've had this impression that he's one of those crowdpleasers that almost never disappoints.
