It's not true, I praised Circus every single time you guys booked Hernan and Guy J a few months back as well. My concern over the "rave" issue is that the booking qualities are going down and the price of tickets is going up. Now, you work as a promoter in the entertainment business, critique is something that is going to be very common. I used to LOVE going to raves because that's where I used to see the biggest dj names.
But last year and this year, for me black and blue line-up is a total joke. From Chus and Ceballos + Hernan to Satoshie with Dennis Ferrer... or a few years back what was it 6 hours of SASHA and DIGWEED at palais de congres....
I understand that you guys work hard at it... but when a person anticipates for a whole year some SIC name and then.... You also have to understand that.
I could give you guys some recomendations for bookings if you guys feel uninspired :P |

since we are a non profit organisation that raises funds for hiv/aids, i urge you to put gestures where that mouth is. we are always looking for volunteers. maybe by implicating yourself you'd understand better the situation. would be more constructive. thanks. |

yes dj agents don't give...
they take... a lot !!!! :p
long story short, actually the dj budget is about the same it was, price for the room fell drastically and that difference is put in the show.
they tried booking huge commercial djs and it doesn't work. too many things that explains that failure. competition is one of them. nobody is giving them a break. everyone is against them now. Well like everything else on this scene. No one works together anymore and it's just getting worse and worse.
i couldn't even book guys i've promoted for past 5 years because of politics...
so yeah they are back to a smaller more creative warehouse rave version of black & blue.
music is gonna be top notch i'm not worried. |
very good post see ya there.
Was hoping for the gay Kermit the frog tho (Nissim):p |

There's the problem.
Aren't you seeing these same big names at the clubs? For far less $? What is it you're really missing out on? Personally I've just found as people get older, the big parties are the first events they stop going to. |

sweetness, some of the vets are opting for the big events like Black and Blue and Bal en Blanc and some intimate parties here and there and are skipping the afterhours and nightclubs.
The big festivals have a way of bringing the new and old, the curious and bi curious.
