Fortunately not Trance! He was appreciated - hell, we'd travelled from London to Ghent to see him! However, I think when you have been paid x amount to come and play a big party you should try and keep it going - its not that people didn't want to dance, nor that his mixes were off, just that he was playing music to a rapidly emptying room. I am all for a more varied track selection (and note that I say it was good earlier on), but a dj should also be about keeping the dancefloor moving, not moving away, and it was a pretty sophisticated audience. Or at least thats what I think... maybe I'm just old fashioned!

One of the best things about Theo is his track selection. If his mixes weren't up to my dancing feet, I'd probably plop down onto a chair and enjoy a nice mixture of tunes from the present and past. Let Theo know if he's not appreciated over the pond, that we still love him over here... We might not pay the big paychecks, but we do appreciate a good song when we here one.. ;) Dave Email Disclaimer This email has been sent from KPMG LLP, a UK limited liability partnership, or from one of the companies within its control (which include KPMG Audit Plc , KPMG United Kingdom Plc and KPMG UK Limited).
