Scandal has probably destroyed more careers than it has enhanced.

Obviously it depends on the scandal but I truely believe in this case their DJ careers are well on place to stay healthy for years to come. lol |
I don't know about most people, but this crap makes me want to see them less, not more. Integrity matters. Or at least it should, shouldn't it?
Regardless, you may be right. Are you predicting a back-to-back with Lawler in the coming months? lol |

hm i follow both of these djs.. what has christopher lawrence and dj dan done so spectacular in the year 2006 or 2007? Have you heard any of cl's latest releases? probably not because there hasnt been anything but a mixed cd in the last 2 years.. how about any ridiculous memorable events in the last 2 years that cl's played? can you name any?,, any idt events? anything at all.. actually whens the last time chris was on a huge bill.. i think guys like menno de jong compared to cl are on a whole level cl isnt anywhere near and cl slowed down years ago...just because i liked a dj at a rave 3 years ago doesnt mean he deserves to be 4th on a djmag poll.. i dont get why you get so uptight because i say he sucks.. sorry to offend anybody but its my own opinion that christopher lawrence sucks until he starts producing some new music and stop playing 2-3 year old tracks in his sets..
sorry :/ |

I am sort of curious to know, how did this Manager character knew how many votes to cast via script to have CL and Dan on 4 and 5 spot respectively. I mean Dj Mag does not disclose how many votes each Dj gets until after the result is announced. So by using a script like they say, how did this manager knew that X number of votes will get CL the 4th spot. Why not the 1st spot or 2nd or 3rd?? If he thought that may raise qustions in mind of other people then again how the bloddy hell did he knew how many votes to cast so they get 4th or 5th spot.
Hmmm ??? |
My guess is that he didn't. He just got an estimate based on size of the poll in the previous year, and an estimate of the perspective growth.
I bet, he was not trying to place them that high, so that they would not cause suspicion, but it just worked out that way.
No where in the literature does it state that the manager specifically entered enough votes for them to be exactly 4th and 5th. We do not have that sort of info on hand, yet. |

Though I can see some people would go see CL or DJ Dan now just for the curiousity factor to judge whether they suck or not for themselves. |

I'm just glad DJ Mag had the balls to come out with this, even tho it is and has been obvious.
Objectively speaking, theres just no way CL and DJ Dan receive more votes than the others in the Top 10 or 20 for that matter... |

it's unclear from the article if the marketing manager was alone in this or if the Dj's actually were aware of anything
I agree though, that the poll has been increasingly becoming a complete farce |
+1
CL is a great DJ IMO. |

Just how big is CL in the states?
Considering that he doesn't really play the fluffy trance that appeals to armin and tiesto fan clubs |

LMAO ..... my friend it will really help if you did some research about what you type here :)
In last 2 years CL has had 3 tracks and 2 CD releases. Currently he is working on Tracks with Joof and is also starting to tour with Joof. As of recent check out his Atlanta gig coming up. In addition CL has played Love Fest WMC DV Burning Man and many other HUGE events. He is also been hand picked by Ferry Corsten to play his event in Holland this year. Your opinion is your opinion ... no body is telling you to stop saying what you wanna say but dont get all hyper if we have a opinion about your opinion.
As for him playing tracks that are 2-3 years old??? again you dont have to go far ... visit the TL forum and then check out beatport and see what tracks were released when :) CL has been in TO atleast 4 or 5 times in past 2 years and each time he has put on a solid performance. you can do a search of the reviews from his parties :)
