Well you are going to get a lot of flames here about people telling you that instead of going to go see him on the 17th, rather go download one of his recent sets online because he will be playing the same set.

I remember when I was going to see Oakey for the first time a few years ago. I built up the event way too much, and even though it was a sweet party (15,000 peeps) Oakey was nothing specail. Then, I saw him again 2 years ago and he sucked ass...trainwreckin!

He is definitely worth it to go see, just because he is such a superstar! hahaha..

Peace,
Steve

Paul Oakenfold is just a big name. don't waste your time or money to hear his shit set.

hey wsup... i dont hate on oakie at all, i'd go see him... i've seen him live on many occasions, and everytime never dissapointing (IMO)...

hey brandon,
definitely go see him, he is one of my favorite DJs!! I think i've seen him more than any other TA (about 9 times), and contrary to what everyone else says, he doesn't suck! I think everyone else just likes to jump on the bandwagon and sound "cool" for saying he sucks.... like anyone who says that's opinion actually counts... and like they are music critic authorities or something...

Trust me and go see him... Every set is completely different (especially recently). He mixes trance with prog. house and breakbeat, so its a real treat as to all the different stuff he throws in there. unfortunately there isn't too much of anything in the last year of Oakie spinning (liveset-wise on AG), so nothing really that would give you an idea of what he is spinnin'.... you'll just have to take people's word for it (like me)...

but don't listen to all these Oakie-haters, most of whom haven't even seem him in the last 2 years (if at all)!!! Oakie has changed a lot since '99 and 2000, so just b/c someone saw him like 2 and a half years ago and thought he sucked one night, doesn't mean he sucks in general.

I'm sick of all the Oakie-bashing on here. bleh.

I dont mind the flaming too much I just needed some opinions like ABT's (people who actually saw him recently) to tell me how his sets are....thx

woops!! sorry mike!! i got blinded by all the oakie-bashing on the way down the thread i thought plastikE started the thread...

you gotta understand, when the two coolest guys from TA are both in the same place in Arizona, i get them confused sometimes.... PlastikE, TF, same thing! both cool! heheh.... (good recovery?)

anyways, go see him... to put it from an oakie-hater's perspective: hey its probably better than anything else you'll get out there for awhile.

heheh... you have to see him ONCE in your lifetime.

Well, I give the recovery an 8.5 heh, but it was no prob. Yeah Thats what I say, he is someone I would love to see at least once in my lifetime, and him being here in AZ is just rare. I really do like his style of music. and $20 bucks a ticket, I'm not passing that up Anyway I'll talk to you guys later..
Robby check your Pm's
