I dont see why people who dont like paul continue to go pay $45+ to go see him... if you dont like him, stop going to see him so you dont have to continue bitching about how much he sucks... seems pretty logical to me. plus, id expect him to be at his prime in nyc alot more than in ibiza...


To be honest....I was there for Marco V who ing destroyed the place......Paul came on and I left the room about 40 mins later for a bit thinking he would pick it back up by the time I returned....nope.....I came back and my ears started bleeding. I don't hate PVD Rory....I totally respect the guy which is why I hold him to such a high standard. Maybe your in love with the guy and your overlooking his recent incapable DJ skills. You can't deny the fact that he has fallen off recently. Some of the biggest PVD whores themselves from Berlin will even tell you that.;)

I dont think his skills fell off, I think its his set programming ability that has become... lazy.

And track selection is not a skill? Track selection and set programming go hand in hand....which gives you the skill to feel out the crowd.....if you become lazy and your skills start to show it....damn right people are going to bitch about. It's up to them to do something about it and not fall down the Oakenfold hill.

I dunno Brian - must be just personal taste... the two times I saw MarcoV this past year, I left early cause I was so bored with what he was playing... to my ears, Pvd is still as good now as he was when I started listening to him. I still dont see how you think his DJ skills are 'incapable' though. Both his mixing and track selection have been spot on for a long time and continue to be. I know his style isnt for everyone though - I just get sick of people who've stated that they no longer like him continue to go see him again and again...

Youre not getting the point, its not that he doesnt have the ability to pull out a sick track selection and program some of the greatest sets ever, but he has become lazy. He hasnt lost any skill to feel out a crowd because hes just not trying anymore, so if anything its not that he lost anything, he just chooses not to use it - we all thought that Paul wouldnt follow this path of egoism, but apparently the stigma of being able to pack a house just because hes there has got the best of him.

On the exact opposite end of the spectrum, as of late, sits Tiesto, who has been programming some great sets, on the contrary to his past reputation of being lazy and doing half-assed livesets.

PVD just doesn't give 2 s. His set last feb at roxy was crap. The programing was horrible. You shouldn't play a track 3 times...it was just all over the place. No flow, that lost it for me...he travels the world plays the same tracks for a few months in a different order, then he'll change. No wonder he doesn't care, he's probably bored out of his mind..he's raking 40 grand what does he care, to me some of his sets i've seen the programming has been a bit off, even older ones. He's better on skills than programing..

Blah, you don't know .

"better on skills than programing.."

haha...gimme a break...if you really know what you are talking about, explain yourself. But please, don't make it so I have to call you out on some bull again.

Sure PvD WAS in a slump, but he's picked his game back up a lot. I've seen him 4 times this year, and LIVE, its always been a blast. I have a great time at his parties and will go to 3 more before the year is over. The energy is still there, and cranked up all the way in places like NYC (but I guess there no other place really like New York). Those of you who go to his parties, instead of just listening to Paul's same boring ass sets of his over and over again, will agree with me.

NYC-CP was a great set with Ableton and Paul throwing new melodies on the keyboard. The Other Side at the end soundy ty, but hey, it was different and kinda creative. From what I am seeing, he is putting in the effort and in a devolpment stage as an artist.

Gotta mention TPOD2 was . We can leave it at that.

"His set last feb at roxy was crap"

You mean Feb-2004 a week before Ultra?

Were you even ing there?

I won't even mention how many great songs were played that night. (I was going to.) It was one of the most fun nights I've had ever. Paul even grabed a record from some chick in the front and threw that down.

Ahh!!!! I'm getting so psyched for NYC on the 11th!!! Especially for the topic of the thread (which is what we should eb discussing). Six hour is good enough time for Paul to throw down just a bit of everything. I have no doubt that he will impress. (He better ...the efforts of getting to NYC from Cali for a Friday night party after Friday morning workday is enormous.)
