Armin for Promise

vuzz have some well corking linups too. with the likes of ronski speed, precision, alucard, ben lost etc. looking forward to these!

well it is most unusual, but i must say I agree with Marks earlier posts.

Fair enough, I would love to see Armin come to Promise - but I know nowt about running a night, and neither do most people on this board....which is why its so easy to say "get armin" etc....the implications of this don't actually come accross to the punters but would have a HUGE impact on Promise as a business.

It's true that you can't win - Book a big DJ - fill the place, but then get people moaning that its "the same old" etc. and that they want new talent....Book a lesser known DJ - the proper following will go, but leads to a far less packed club. Gabriel and Dresden for example - great DJ's - but that is the emptiest promise I have ever seen!! So balance is indeed important.

Those DJs that have just been booked will be amazing though

Will have to get to most of them like!

Nice one, hope this is the way 2005 will go

Don’t know where you are getting your info from, but your facts are wrong mark, we have never tried to book any of the djs you have booked for Promise (apart from Richard and Les Hemstock who have both played)

I hate to admit it, but I am probs one of those 'Big name Internet clubbers.' Leeds doesn't (or rarely) have a good trance night. Because I know 2 people in Newcastle, it makes sense to visit them and go to a decent night there, but I won't travel unless I'm sure I'm in for a good night. This is where the big names come in - if it was a night with all lesser known DJ's I would not want to spend the time and money travelling, but rather wait for a night where I knew Promise would be busy and the would be tunes spot on for us.

However, I would like to see a big name on, with an up and coming DJ, as long as Richard was still allowed to play. He (IMO) is Promise's best asset

Those bookings look good, Mark. It'll be interesting to see the line-ups.

If nobody wants to go see up and coming DJs, how come some of these up and coming DJs go on to become huge??

Mark I can 100% assure you that we have never tried to book either of those. You must have us confused with someone else mate.

I have made enquiries on only a couple of DJ's who have played Promise - Marcos and Petrae Foy...I didn't think this would be a problem as Petrae hasn't played Promise in ages and Marcos only played the boat. Oviously you have re-booked and that's cool...

Our #1 rule is don't book Promise DJ's (with only a few exceptions, Richard who played our opening night and Les, who is a mate of Scott's).

It would make no sense for us to want to do something different and book the same people you guys are!

that was Twisted Logic i think Mark, not Vuzz....

from what i heard anyway....

Thats a good mixture, Cor Fijnemans been class both times ive saw him and ive been wanting to see Katana & Kai Tracid for ages :clap:

Dunno who Chris Davies is but be interesting to see how he does same as Gavyn Mytchel

The rest are just same old but will keep the punters coming in.

Im not really arsed about Armin for promise anyways though it would be good, I wouldnt mind seeing Marcel Woods, Ton TB and Marcus Shultz someone like that....Bring back Jon O'Bir again too! Never fails to impress

I think Revel is right and you have us mixed up with Twisted! We know they wouldn't play for us so wouldn't bother even trying!

Ahh...my agreement comes to an abrupt halt

At the end of the day, IMO, this whole "you can't book my DJ's" thing is bollocks.

How does it remotely affect Promise?

Petty imo!



/ducks

PS - Yes I don't know what i'm talking about

PPS - It's still sad.

Winner

Some canny bookings there and am willing to give the new ones i aint heard before a listen

of course its not bollocks! If Twicted or Vuzz started booking Ornadel, of course it would affect Promise. Someone might go to Vuss to see GO, then like it more than Promise, then not go back to Promise. Therefore it has effected Promise's trade.

And if Promise went booking Andy Bauggley/Goldenscan etc now, Vuzz would be pissed off too.

most clubs will want exclusive rights to a DJ, within a certain area.

Defo - Promise have been very supportive...Richard even played our opening night (how many other nights in Newcastle does Richard play at other than Promise?!).

And with regards to exlusivity of DJ's I couldn't agree more with Mark and Revel. I wouldn't want other nights in Newcastle booking Ben Lost when we have him for 3 dates this year. It thins the market and at the end of the day we are supporting him and he'll support us in return. It's the same with Promise and their DJ's...some of them owe Promise a lot it's just loyalty at the end of the day!

or just trance in general

Do other nights ask permission from other club promoters if a dj can play there ?

jesus christ, gis a go with your chequebook

some clubs used to have legal contracts to enforce exclusivity of dj's within a certain mile radius. don't think it is the case anymore though.

ohh right !!

marcos euphonic get in!!!

He was quality at the boat. Played some top tunes.

Good at crasher too not so long ago.

Never seen katana but wanted to for a while
