    OR....it says a lot about gatecrasher :p But what it could say about trance is that it has moved away from its more mainstream appeal in 1999 and the music has progressed into something which is less appealing to the general public. OR, it also might say that trance which appeals to the mainstream is dead thanks to the likes of DJ Sammy who gave trance a bad name for the people who cannot differentiate between cheap imitations and the real thing.

    Whatever the reason producers are still dishing out awesome music and there are still fantastic trance nights around the country, and as long as they're still there im a happy bunny! :)

    They may be twats but at the end of the day you wont find many lineups better than and if the music's good then im happy, thats the main thing. Had no problems with them in the past and until i do i wont stop paying money for them to put on events like this.

    Hmmm I've been to 2 of these crasher classics events and so I don't think I'll be attending this one! Would rather go to something a bit different, like Nu-Crasher :)
    These classics nights have been done to death now. Think this is the 4th one or summat in a row :down:

    No I admit crasher is dead in terms of a trance brand, but it doesnt mean its not capable of putting on one off good events. On thursday i went to discotheque, the new crasher in leeds and saw Riley & Durrant and Jules, the soundsystem was fantastic, the lighting and production was astounding and the music was pretty good too! The crowd wasnt the greatest but other than I had no complaints. Crasher is far from dead, it's just rebranded and moved away from trance...they advertise that fact themselves!!

    I would rather listen to that Dido & David Gray soft-rock ballad I suggested than go to a classics night of any genre

    Ok....i agree, but like i say, it can still put on a good night. It might not live up to what it was in the past but il still have a bloody good time if the music is as it was at the last one i went too!!

    Nu-Crasher? I can only begin to imagine this experimental "new age" line up.

    Riley & Durant, AJ Gibson, Eddie Halliwell, Judge Jules e.t.c e.t.c

    Have they been using Promise as Nu-age clubbing consultants? :lol:
