why isnt hard dance big in TO?
TO is too classy to dance that hard.
the guv shuffle wont suffice, and the DJ will think they are doing bad.
I would say Hard Dance is big in Calgary. compared to the biggest events, Hard Dance draws just as many people(and im looking forward to Farley and BK in 2 weeks hell yea)
Crasher did a tour, they came to Calgary twice, Slinky came 3 times.
heres what they did.
bring a laser(yea, the stealth was worth it) and the S/lion.
thats it.
lineups were the same as always, 1 maybe 2 djs
rob tissera/dave lee, Fergie/Tim Lyall, Guy Ornadel, Max Graham/Oakie, Sandra Collins
for the cost of the name, the revenue wasnt there...its teh same had it been a regular party. |

| The reason you see clubs like Gatecrasher booking five "quality" (and when you say quality i think you mean internationally popular) dj's in one night is because they can afford it. For a club like The Guvernment to cram that many expensive dj's for one night wouldnt make sense when night after night they sell to (and over) capacity. The Guv does do a great job for Ultra Spin and Labour of Love events to bring in PLENTY of talent for one evening i must say. |

random thought: i could, in theory, go to a big uk festival this summer like gkgg, and i've done it several times before. BUT it doesn't interest me now at all. i'd rather hear a longer set from one or two djs that i really like, than a one to two hour set from 20 djs and run around from tent to tent. and i don't like hard dance :p
i think that i am just getting old and boring. i'll go back to my rocking chair and knitting now.
AND back to your discussion! |

Hmmm certainly not the most worldly of views I have ever heard. But an opinion nonetheless
