still, i wouldn't mind having him -- or other djs -- back for an outdoor gig. maybe made can work something out =)
this is pvd's 4th year - 2004 he spun in june in the epic set where we all got soaked :) |

| I been to all the summerstages. First year was blah, cool cause it was a first experience, but Time of Our Lives 4X is a bit too much. Second year was in nasty. Rain killed it a little, but musically, wtf. MIND. Last year looked like it was gonna be good til 2 hrs into the set he lost his flow and didnt go anywhere past 8 PM. Hopefully this year will be better musically. |

Christina's email to Made 3 YEARS ago...
| quote: | Hi Chrstina,
Yes we do try to maintain a level of professionalism while bringing the
highest talent available to NYC. We appreciate your appreciation. Paul has a
very loyal following and quite a huge fan base in NYC and we unfortunately
have a limited capacity in our venue. Unfortunately we have to keep the
prices relatively high while limiting the number of tickets available. This
way the venue is not over crowded and people are not turned away. At the
same time we can maintain the high standards by which we are all accustomd
to seeing and hearing our favorite dj's in including great sound, laser
shows etc. We are offering $40 tickets right now. if you click on this link,
http://www.ticketweb.com/user/?regi...404018&REFERRAL
_ID=119 and in the box marked promotional code, enter MADENYC you will be
able to purchase tickets for the reduced price. This offer will only be
available for a limited time. I hope you understand the issues at hand and
recognize that we are commited to bring the best possible experience to you
that we can.
Hope to see you there!

Berlin's not as wealthy as NYC???? Berlin's his home??? The US is more litigious?? Beats me as to the real reasons. I'm just saying that years ago it was pretty expensive in today's dollars and the popularity has increased which also allows them to jack up the price. For all I know, insurance prices could be higher due to club closings/lawsuits over drug-related rave deaths, etc. I can't imagine jurys being kind to party promoters so they've got to cover their asses somehow. There's lots of possible contributing factors. All that i know is that there are a lot of people who still think it's worth the price, as shown by the fact that it always sells out. |

yea. i wish a huge bunch of us could just do a boycott for once, enough to effectively decrease the price. not that that would increase the quality of pvd's sets :stongue: but back to the principal of the matter... :toothless |
