true true true there are tried and tested staple tracks each dj plays but what makes someone good is how they react right there to that particular crowd. i honestly think armin does a good job of that but this year he hasn't been consistent...or maybe its that he's playing to so many damn people who go nuts over the cheese.

True. Some people just need to comprehend that you can see and hear someone live and still not like them.

It's not that I hate Armin, I just don't listen to him anymore. I've been to one of his shows back in 05 I think. That was an awesome night. But I think a lot of his music and radio shows are boring.

I gave up on the dj worship years ago, no dj meets my specific taste in music, so I don't bother to get hyped up about them for the most part.

I like the music I like, not the music that the dj I like plays.

The only dj I'd make an effort to see at the moment is J00F, and mainly because he plays psy in a normal club environment and I am still in my psy honeymoon period.

This.

Jolz: Remember also, that a lot of DJs, Armin included, will play drastically different depending on the location they are in. I know in the US it is basically total . The last time I went (almost 2yrs ago, and got hooked up for free thank ing hell. No way I was paying the $40 to see him bore me) and saw him, he was so boring. He has been for far too long. He plays the same boring-unicorn-hands-in-the-air-jesus-pose trance that is predictable. If I wanted to hear his radio show when out, I would listen to that. When you go out, play something different than your god damned radio show!!!!!!

I don't listen to trance anymore though. I hardly listen to any EDM outside of the club now. lol

I listen to tonnes of trance but Armin has gone majorly downhill for me. Not only are his sets boring and predictable, but his productions are awful as well.
