  1. Legal action?????? Fuck that. Is it the clubs problem because some douche pulled a knife? Take him to court for attempted manslaughter! I think it's BS that someone would try to cash out like that. Imagine you sunk all your cash into a company, and then something like this happend to you. At the very least, his insurance company would drop him like a Tyson punch. I agree, no one just gets stabbed.
  2. I went to Ibiza (for the last 5 years) in 2002, and was going to Space to see Sasha for his bash, and guess what? NO SHOW. 2X that summer. I was beyond pissed (planned the whole trip around that night). I caught Carl Cox at Space on Thursday for his residency (with Will Grant...awesome...and DJ Vibe...unreal!!!!!! I would LOVE to see S&D spin for 4-6 hours....and then have Carl Cox come in and set it off. To bad it's all about the $$$$$. So, luckily they are spinning on 2 different nights, but if I had to choose, I would say Carl Cox because you KNOW Crobar is going to by a sweatbox. Big Time. And if they pull any @#%% with the lines getting in, coat check, etc...buzzkill.
  3. I was in Ibiza, summer of 02, and I went to Pacha to see Oakenfold. Well, people were actually sitting on the floor, saving themselves for...Cattaneo. When Oakenfold left the booth, everyone jumped up, and this guy just tore it up. By far the best perfomance I saw that summer.
  4. XTCGSPOT- I've been to Ibiza 5 years in a row (even spent the first week of our honeymoon there with a bunch of friends before heading to Italy), and here is my advice. I partied every other night, and spent a lot of time at the beach, in the towns, and taking in the island. Ibiza has a lot to offer, be sure to explore the old city. However, I planned the trips around the DJ's and when/where they were spinning. 1. What is your budget? I would identify that first. I agree with most of the posts, stay on the east side of the island (Playa D'en Bossa or Ibiza Town). I like Ibiza town, The Ocean Drive hotel is at the Marina, and it's a great scene. The closest you will get to an Ian Schrager hotel if that's what you like. Otherwise, there are a ton of hotels on the beach in Playa D'en Bossa, like Cancun. 2. Ibiza is a summer destination, so your limited to July-September. I always check the clubbing calendar on Ibiza-Spotlight.com and plan my trip according to what DJ's I want to see. I wouldn't choose july over august or vice-versa, it's up to you. Trust me...once you get off the plane...all is good. 3. I always rented a car, because I drove to the beach everyday (Ses Salinas, south part of the Island, home of Sa Trincha (or Sa Trinxa). This is by far the best beach, based on the music and the people. Otherwise, come out of Space...walk across the street, and have fun. 4. Food. You get what you pay for. I always brought a few boxes of Power Bars or Zone Bars, they came in handy. If you can afford it, Plaza del Sol above the castle is great, as well as all the places in Dalt Villa. 5. Remember: Dinner at 11PM, Bars at 1AM and Clubs at 3AM. Do not show up to a club at 11PM, or you will be alone. In Ibiza town, go to a bar named Dome (outside bar, very cool.) They have parades everynight promoting the clubs and you can get discount passes. Also, the staff have free passes to every event, just ask them AFTER you gave a good tip. I made a great connection, and I paid admission 1 out of every 5 times. Plus, the staff know where the private beach parties are, etc. 6. Dress - Whatever. You can where gym pants, sneakers and a tank top, or you can where a g-string with a pink wig. No one cares. Make sure you have good shoes/sneakers...... 7. I would go to the Ibiza Spotlight website, and check out all the hotels. Airfare is easy, just go online. 8. Do NOT miss: Sundays at Space 8AM Sunday to 6 AM Monday(The terrace closes at 11PM, so be sure to get there a few hours earlier), Sanchez at Pacha, and afterhours at DC-10. Good Luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  5. I bought the Denon DN-S3000. I'm going to leave work early, pour a jack and coke, and let it rip.
  6. Hello All! I'm spinning on NYE and I'm looking for 2 tracks via MP3: Another Chance - Roger Sanchez Space Calling - Carl Cox Please email to gfrank1@optonline.net if you have it! I tried EVERY vinyl distributor...none to be had. Any help would be appreciated. Happy Holiday's!!!!!!!!!!!!
  7. If anyone has this on MP3, can you please email the track to gfrank1@optonline.net. I'm spinning some classics on NYE and I can't locate this song. Thanks all!
  8. Thanks all! Now I'm off to pick up my new sound system: B-52 Matrix 1000.
  9. Looking for a new place to buy vinyl, Satellite has been my place for a while. Anyone know of another store with Trance/House/Progressive? Thanks all!
  10. Ok, for those who have never gone to Ibiza...you can try to setup the perfect club calender, but it is hard to keep. Let me explain... I have gone for the last 4 years, and I always chose the week based on :Carl Cox, Sasha OR Digweed. However, I caught DJ's like Laurent Garnier (terrace at Space) and he ROCKED! I remember him pounding a trance tune, and then you hear "Chaka Kahn...Chaka Kahn...." Totaly cool. What a vibe. Also, I caught Will Grant and DJ Vibe open for Cox...they were amazing. Yeah, the big names draw the crowds, but Ibiza offers so many DJ's that have been around for years, but haven't reached "Oakenfold" status. They are the real draw to the Island. Here is my number 1 tip: Go to Ses Salinas beach, and walk all the way to the end, to Sa Trinxa, aka Sa Trincha. The DJ is amazing, plays great "Houseful Soul", and the party gets very intense. Did I mention it's a nude beach? And, the people...every walk of life...all smiling. Have fun!
  11. He moved to NY this past month. Check out www.xpander.nl
  12. Bottom line: I want DJ's, I go to NYC. I want to bang a hottie w/o travelling, I go to Mirage. Plain and simple. Who cares who owns it, or what celebs may go, all I care about is getting some tail. With cheese, extra cheese, or no cheese, at 4AM... I want them out of my bed.
  13. Been to Ibiza 4 times, last summer w/ 2 friends and my wife for the first part of my Honeymoon. Caught Cox's opening night at Space, Sasha, etc. The BEST set was Hernan Cattaneo at Pacha, people actually were sitting on the floor while Oakenfold was spinning. I've stayed at Ocean Drive (excellent hotel, great location) and Na Xemana (far, but on a cliff w/ private pools, 5 stars). Any questions, let me know.
  14. I read a reveiw of Estate last night, and, when I was in Ibiza this past summer, I went to see Oakenfold at Amnesia. Well, people were SITTING on the floor while he played. That lasted about 1 hr, he then left to people cheering, and Hernnan Catanneo took over. The place went off, people were dancing in the bathrooms! All in all, I've seen my fair share of DJ's and Clubs worldwide, and I must say this Oakenfold has got to go. He should open for guys like Cattaneo, DJ Vide, Will Grant, James Zabiela, and others. Carl Cox/Digweed/Tenaglia...worth the price. IMHO
  15. Great Party. I will have no idea what anyone says at dinner tonight, as I can't hear shit! Great system, very surprised. DT was great, and the club looks pretty good. HOWEVER, the floor was a maze, and it took 1/2 hour to leave! All in all, I'm ready for the Turkey.
  16. I would go see him, but being as I planned my trip to Ibiza around his appearance at Space, and as usual, he didn't show (3X this summer), I wouldn't give him a penny. Bottom line, the reason promoters HAVE a job is because of the DJ's. But, it's the FANS that determine who gets what. I look at chatrooms all over the world, and it seems the Sasha is losing flavor, fast. Can't piss on the world long enough and expect your shit not to stink. If you are new to the game, go and have fun. To me, Sasha and Digweed at Twilo was the peak. Now, he is selling out. In my opinion only...
  17. Actually, I know he will never see this post, and I don't care if he does. I'm letting all the other CP members know that this guy is getting know for this crap, and I would rather spend my money on seeing DJ's like Hernan Cattaneo, DJ Vibe, Will Grant, James Zabiela, etc.
  18. Well, that is a trick question. Figure $150 a day for partying (2 clubs entrance...$50 each w/o discount) plus drinks. The hotel is up to you and how many people share a room, etc. I can help you if you want.

  20. Hey girl...glad you had fun...this was my 5th summer in Ibiza...I love it. Did you go to Sa Trinxa at Ses Salinas beach?
  21. Hey girl...check out my decks. I just got back from Ibiza, picked up some great vinyl. Have fun!
  22. Well, I went to Ibiza a few weeks ago and made sure that our trip (4 of us) revolved around Sunday At Space August 11 for the Airdrawndagger release party (Sunday 8AM to Monday 6AM - NONSTOP). Eric Morillo took the terrace at 8PM after Steve Lawler and tore it up...huge. Then, at midnight, everyone went instide to catch Sasha, who was to go on at midnight (followed by Lee Burridge, and a few others when Sasha finished at 3AM). Well, 12:30 went by, then 1:30, 2...Finally, at 3AM, people got PISSED and left. Picture all these people...angry. Not cool. Rumor has it Sasha is getting know fore just blowing off his tour dates around Europe. LISTEN UP: Don't forget where you came from, because your fans will drop you as fast as we made you. FYI - I went to Pacha to see Oakenfold, and people were SITTING on the floor...so he left. Then, Hernan Cattaneo SHOOK the roof...by far the best set of my trip, aside from Carl Cox on Thursday at Space. Sasha, stop being a dick...people pay good money to see you spin. If you can't partly with boys and get up with the men...don't waste our time. BTW, I heard ARC was great.
