| keep doing what ur doing boys, it will come, it may just take time, because remember we are in melbourne, in all honesty though, i have never ever been to a trance night like obsession in melb, the quality of dj's the decor, the sound/light all that effort that goes into the event to give it that main room/big room feel, i will never ever forget when steve played bounce back at the first obsession, the crowds reaction, it was absolutely breathtaking, and at the last obsession when scotty played purple haze - rush, slowly slowly good things come to those who wait, these 2 boiz along with room have put so much time and effort into these events, alot of us in melb could definiotely take a leaf out of these 2 guys book |

Scott and Steve are both involved in the creation of something that all of us do want. A big club night to call our own. Something we can all feel proud in being apart of whether it be - Promoting, DJing, Organising or simply Gurnering.
These guys are putting their own blood, sweat and tears (strangis) :D into this. To be honest its something that most of us haven't got the balls to sacrifice so much of ourselves for, because we either don't have the passion to see this type of night work, or we don't have the drive to make it work, or the pre-existing reputation to make it happen.
Never the less, these guys have certainly sacrificed a truckload of themselves to even get this night to where it is currently, so i think that criticism of it, should definately be left to the 'constructive' type.
Trance may not be your cup of tea, but certainly everyone on here wants to have a big, successful club night to call our own, and that is why everyone, whether you're a prog-head dj, a clever promoter, or an opinionated punter should get behind these two in whatever capacity you can; even if it means keeping your non constructive criticisms to yourself.
note - to those who are saying well soups is just jumping on the bandwagon because he has got mainroom. that is not true. i've always been a supporter of this night, i certainly have had some opinions on things that could be tweaked to improve it, but i voiced those to scott and not just whinged and/or complained on a messageboard. |

yeah totally agree wif ya soups and paulie!!
keep pushin on, things are gonna get better! it wont take long...
so keep pushing on!
i may be over trance myself, but thats just me, (i never really got it anyways) im still gonna support this night cos i like the people invovled and the atmoshphere that it has..
for me it aint about enjoying the music necessarily its about supporting the people who are prepared to stick there neck out and have a crack!!
plus i think during this pop house pandemic going on in melb, all promoters and stuff need to stick together and help each other out a bit! lets get some PLUR happening... |

See that's just it. I mean sure I may be one of the biggest newbies around but I know that without promotion and stuff, numbers will be low and then people will complain and whatever. Hell, I used to listen to mostly *don't laugh* emo/pop-punk/indie and all that sorta stuff but now my iPod is pretty much full of stuff from Duncan's computer, which I subject my friends to as often as possible.
Do I look like some "junkie in fat pants"? I don't think so... hell, I borrowed Kel's for godskitchen :P But I think I can't use that as an advantage.
Anyway, I'm trying guys... I know how this stuff works.
Just makes me sad when people say like trance is dead/a lost cause/whatever... |

I'll probably never wear them again so I should give them back to you :)
and it's 'newbies' who we need to help things along... just ignore them when they say it's dead because we know it isn't ;) |
