I would do it. You can even ask a bunch of LATAs who came up for Armin on July 3rd last year...a Monday night. Just a couple of days after seeing him in LA and being a bit disappointed. It was flat out amazing and many consider it one of the best nights of 2006.
It was nuts. Alain and Syd did an amazing tag team opening set (as I will say over and over again, SF openers to trance acts are generally better openers than the LA openers I've seen. LA openers tend not to progress well most of the time I am down there, IMO.)
Will remember that night forever because it was a whole crowd of true Armin fans and got to see a bunch of peeps in LA that night, too.
Anyhow, not to hijack this thread. PvD used to be the same way. I haven't seen him in LA in quite some time so I don't know if there are any differences between his LA and SF sets these days but I do remember at Monster Massive (where I ended up leaving before he came on) everyone was blown away by him and said he played real hard and real good. I wished I would have stayed after hearing that because I have a feeling it was reminiscent of his old SF sets which Ten15's crowd would get to a point of insanity I have rarely seen. In fact, probably haven't seen since 2003 - a tie between when Ferry played in Feb 2003 and played for 4 1/2 hours when scheduled for 3 after saying he wanted to play since the crowd was so "ing insane" according to him and only stopped at 5:30am because his wife was falling asleep in the booth, and the last time would be Marco V in May 2003 when he was also scheduled for three hours and ended up playing for five and stoppped at 6am.
Sander van Doorn last January at Ten15 brought a glimpse of it when he filled up the room (people migrated from the other rooms) and people were just going bonkers and blown away. If the place was as packed as like Ferry, Marco V, Armin, PvD, etc could make it in the main room at Ten15 it would have certainly been up there with those 2003 nights.
And a bunch of times I've been to Ten15 over recent months have brought glimpses of it back, too, which is awesome. Darude night was amazing, IMO...loved the energy. Kyau-vs-Albert night was a lot of fun after they got the crowd back into it about 30 minutes into their set. Mike Shiver night was also surprising. MIKE brought an energy to the room that even got me going bigtime and wish that type of night could happen again -- he played such a wide range of tracks throughout his set yet the crowd was totally into it....his range of style actually kinda reminds me of SvD although SvD does play a lot more techno in his sets. But the range of the two is just so impressive.
And honestly, I have to attribute the comeback in the energy at Ten15 largely to Taj with his selection of talent, and also to the construction the place has had over the past few years (although I think a lot more needs to be done :p). Bringing in a lot of the best DJ around who certainly deserve a lot more exposure and bigger crowds (MIKE, Darude, etc), and not afraid to take a chance every once in awhile with up and comers (Shiver, Sheridan, etc and he was the first person ever to bring Sander van Doorn to north america).
Taj has done an amazing job, IMO. And I tell this to everyone!
Now only if he'd bring Yoji B to SF. SF needs some Yoji!
Now with PvD, I am really interested to see Dirtyhertz open up for PvD (I imagine he'll open and Taj close?). Now I love Jerry Bonham and love his sets on his own, but often times feel he ends too soft for PvD and the big jump PvD brings is more of a shocker to the crowd. I know Dirtyhertz will prob have to play house (just guessing because EdgarV, PvD's typical opener on the east coast, is awesome at trance but always ends up having to play house when he opens for PvD), but hoping that by the end of his set it's banging pretty good and has the energy high in the room before PvD even enters the place. |
DAMN DAVE!! YOU WRITE LIKE NO OTHER!
Thank you very much for the shout out!!!:D |

After listening to several live sets recorded during WMC last week, seems like several big name DJ drop several electro tracks in their sets.
I liked Electro when it first came out but I'm getting sick of it lately. |
Electro is definitely "over-saturated" right now. Its interesting how some House lables are now going to this sound.:mad: Im sure PVD wont be throwing down "a lot" of electro this night! The staple PVD sound is what im expecting... |

I usually stay away from electro house or electro type trance (SVD for example), unless the track has some distinctive element that keeps me tuned in. Im sure PVD will play his sound and more trance style tunes like 4-5 years agao. This is going to be a great night!!
I wish 1015 would have some special ski lift to carry us from one end of the main room to the other on that night.
:D |

Replying to : knight life 415 & Taj
You know, I noticed that during my last purchase of music. Their was an overwhelming amount of electro-house, and electro sounding trance tracks. Some make it into my final selection, However I realized if I had purchased this music on vinyl and not as a download, I would not have purchased as much in one particular genre. it’s great to have the diversity available to you. But hell.. you still have to really like the tracks to make it cost-effective.
Anywho,. I don’t think PVD will be playing that much electro, haven’t seen him do it in the past at Folsom and I don’t think he’ll do it this time either. |

| i first saw pvd actually at 1015 last october... (or was it september). it was great i think, very impressed with his mixing style... used to like his sets from back in 2000, or 2002, like nature one or mayday. Then i saw him again at Together as One 2007, and it was still great... then i went to popsicle and saw CL and infected mushroom... hmmm... seemed to be blown away by psytrance even more... and... i chose to go to see astrix on the 21st of April in LA... why is this pvd nite sooo expensive?? hmmm i still think pvd is great, but for some reason im hesitated to spend the $35 now or $40 later... why is this so??? simply cause im being to cheap? hahaha... anyways... just spillin my thoughts, maybe one of u TA's can convince me to check out PVD again! :disbelief :disbelief :disbelief |

OK, it's not 50/50 whether I go to this.
Two events going on that weekend, can only choose one night.
Would love to see both.
I am torn.
I need both a prog fix and a trance fix.
I am torn!! |
