sgtfury Posted January 22 Report Share Posted January 22 if you check out my profile it says that i joined CP oct/2000. the only one that ive found thats been on the miami board longer than me is sobeton. 5 years......basically that means that there were some that were 16 when i began posting on CP and now they can legally go to Space. i heard from a friend that Space was charging 50 dollars at the door for morillo. 50 dollars....that is if you werent smart enough to buy a advance ticket. And when i checked the New Times, Crobar had advance tickets for David Morales. Advance tickets..................hmmi cant help but take a step back and kind of take a wide eyed look at what has happened to the miami scene. i guess some would say that the scene has exploded...and probably in some financial ways it has...but......i guess i was happier when people would travel TO miami to hear the local residents. i remember standing in line in the bathroom at the old space and this guy from california was ranting and raving up and down how lucky i was that i lived in the same city where edgarv and oscar G were residents.....jesus christ, i remember when shadow had oakenfold and more f'n people were there the next night for acosta. miami used to have its own scene...now it has a imported scene. look at the major clubs-the main focus is on the guest superstar DJs...and you know- i understand it in some way...the big names bring big money...they also bring a big price tag...and the end result is that the clubber pays as much at the door as they would for a rock concert and i have to ask myself when will it end?....i cringe to think about WMC door prices...as some of you may know, i spin records..i have a unrelated career so this is not how i pay my bills. i can tell you that it is much harder for a local DJ to make money in miami...the big checks are going to the traveling superstars...and then guess what else is happening-the locals that are worth a shit are traveling outside of miami..lol. so.......this is why you should support groove eric- ive never heard him spin (heard great things, though)..but it really doesnt matter what he plays..the point is that this is a local guy that is developing a local following, doing his thing...its not like the all too familiar situation where we are force fed a DJ and told they are good just because they spin at a club (see fain, bellini, and a bunch of others) if the tone of this is negative, i really didnt mean it to be. I just want to see miami return to the glory days! when its local scene ruled. go groove eric! mdamon7278, xxgrooveericxx, mimid and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sgtfury Posted January 22 Author Report Share Posted January 22 btw- mursa- the point of this post was to voice my opinion as how ive seen the scene change and why miami desperately needs to push its locals (like groove eric!) i was trying to comment on a multitude of issues..so, i dont see how it could have been done without a essay.

nexusgroove Posted January 22 Report Share Posted January 22 the scene has gone to shit.its just been over commericialized; it's all about being seen at the club, nothing about the music, vibe or energy.When did the scene start falling to its death? Ever since power 96 started playing better of alone - alice Deejay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
