Point well made, Alland. But with that mentaility, why don't we charge $30 for
*every* party *ever* thrown? Are we not allowed to have expectations of a
certain calibur or music when going to see a certain performer and when playing
a certain price? I don't think anyone who made a review (myself included)
mentioned anything to the effect that they were upset b/c he DIDN'T play a
certain track or whatever, I think certain people were just upset for paying
$30- to see MARK FARINA and were met with mediocre music, some of the record
sleeves were written on parchment they were so dated. (Kidding, kidding.) I
didn't pay $30 to only recollect MIDAS TOUCH and PYT. Mazel tov to everyone
who thought he rocked it, I REALLY DO wish I could say the same. Your
statement, "Well if you don't want to pay $30- for a party then don't go." is a
little offbase, it was just if you are going to have a $30- party, you're going
to get your $30 review. I don't blame the promoters, they have no control over
what the djs play, and this experience hasn't deterred me from going to a
future House Is A Feeling.
Quit being such a tech-y elitest, Alland. :)~

~*~ Maybe it's the responses like these that make DJ's not want to play in
~*~ l.a. or charge up the ass to do it.
~*~
~*~ "I thought he'd play _____"
~*~ "I wanted him to play _________"
~*~ "I left because he didn't play _______"
~*~
~*~ If the guy played hard, it's cuz he was in that mood. I mean, it's not
~*~ like he played epic trance or something that could make you want to
~*~ disqualify him as a great house dj. im not a huge mark farina fan. I
~*~ think he's good and plays fun stuff. But I wouldn't complain about him
~*~ just cuz he didn't play the stuff that *I* was in the mood for on a
~*~ particular night, and say that my money was not well spent. If you
~*~ didn't want to spend $30, then don't go to a $30 party. Otherwise listen
~*~ and enjoy as much as you can. Plus There were a few other great events
~*~ that night that were way under $30, like Ms. Sue's thang at king king.
~*~ Me? I stayed home and slept. It was nice.
~*~ By the way, Im not into pop remixes either, but it's just a thought
~*~ since it was a thread from the other day.
~*~
~*~ But no alcohol.... That's lame. supermegalame. There should be early
~*~ warning about that on the info line at the very least.
