Did they really add Oakenfold to the Carl Cox/Ritchie Hawtin Line up? (pg. 2)

sorry dude... but its the truth. Not saying that all oakie's fans are ginos though so dont worry...
LOL
Like i said... the upside to this is that Oakenfold fans will be exposed to the banging hard techno that is Carl Cox. He's going to blow Oakenfold out of the water. |

| Other than the fact that i dont like oakenfold i dont have a problem with him or his fans. They just shouldnt be having them both in the same room on the same night. |

Man, looks like he's opening the room, or @ least the first international DJ playing, so hit up the lounge or the patio, do something else.
I can understand you not liking the guy or his sets, but no need to bitch and whine incessantly. |

Did you go to Bittersweet at the docks in 2002?
The main room saw the fans of Andy C, DJ Dan and Misstress B all pass through the same room on the same night, and people still gave incredible reviews.
The Guv complex is trying to model these all access events after the giant parties in the UK - gatecrasher, etc. Obviously the scale is smaller, but if they can have Coxy and Oakie at the same jam, why can't guv?
Don't be so sure about Oakie playing in the same room as Cox or Hawtin....Neither Cox nor Hawtin could fill the Kool Haus alone, but together they would do it. |

You dont think Cox or Hawtin could fill a room as big as guv?
I beg to differ.
Ive seen them fill rooms three times the size routinely... |

Real Question: Do you really see these two on par as being equal in terms of success/ history and generating the right crowd? I've just been led to believe that Cox is in a different (be it higher) league than Richie. (just asking your techno advice) |

They are both equally important and talented in the Electronic music scene. Ritchie was one of the pioneers of techno for god sake!
As for Cox, hes been around almost as long and has different roots but he basically took Detroit and went with it into his own style (after he finished playing happy hardcore that is) heheheh
Ive been to Plastikman parties that drew partiers from all over North america. Everyone i met was from somewhere exclusively for the party. |

No, I meant Kool Haus.
It doesn't matter that you've seen them pack a stadium of people ELSEWHERE - that's entirely my point. One of those guys could not fill Kool Haus because this is Toronto. The techno scene is ridiculously small now.
Richie played KH a couple of years ago with Acquaviva, and while busy, it wasn't rammed - and that was back when the scene was much much healthier.
I think techno will be in KH - Cox, Hawtin, Magda and Aquaviva. |
