That is what I would have said, so thanks for doing it for me . . . right on the $$!!

that is was great dj's do, and Armin is a fantastic
dj no question about it.
Some dj's are so engrossed in what they are doing,
some barely lift there head up to see how the crowd
are reacting.
A good jock will always interact with the crowd, and
have enthusaism, thats why i like armin.
I know Fatboy Slim is non trance, he is the master
at this.
Some dj's can just be plain arrogant at times.
If i was in there league, i would want to have fun &
sign autographs and be down to earth |

| I totally agree. When I saw Armin here in Sydney in March (and he was apparently ill at the time) he was totaly amazing. Each time I see this guy he blows me away. Really gets involved in the music but doesnt look like one of those ego maniac 'worship me' djs. |

| Armin is my favorite DJ for a long time, I'll never forget his 12-hour-set @ Club Eau, even if more and more people got a bit tired in the morning after 10 hours and more he didn't stop smiling and dancing behind the decks. :crazy: |

Its ing unbelievable the guy is like 63 years old and he dances like crazy, I saw him live last week he was playing at the beach here, he has these total ed up dance moves he does with his hands and head omg I was stunned.
And at the end of the night, he got into his Golf R32 (!!!) with 3 gorgeous girls! |

heh..
I've not had a chance to see Armin live but even the clips I've seen of him make me want to see him as much for his mixing as his just overall appeal to the masses. Much as I like PvD, 75% of the time he's got that "robot" expression on his face. Hell, just listening to Armin on ASoT's (wish I spoke dutch.. hehe) you can hear it in his voice. And taking the time out to occasionally answer english questions in english.. that's definitely class. Of course.. it helps he has a great radio dj voice. I'd try to get a job dj'ing on radio if I could speak that well. I remember how much I laughed that one ASoT (96, 97, 98.. somewhere around there) where he corrected the radio station announcer on the pronunciation of his name. |
