It costs a lot to bring out the talent for every stage.. not just talent.. Sound, visuals, etc... I think he has 4 rooms because he wants to give a lot of variety. Something a promoter rarely does. It appeals to a larger crowd. If he threw in some techno into the trance stage.. like liberator, vath, hawtin, etc then he would make shit load of money because if the techno people started getting bored. Chances are they could find techier stuff in a different room.

Did I confuse you yet? if so.. get some education before you complain.

I bet you have your ticket right now.

buddy, everyone knows the 4th stage is going to be dead all nite. didnt it get shut it down one time at pne cuz it didnt get any attention? why waist the money when u can put more effort into another room. i have an education thank you very much. oh and no i dont have my ticket, nor will i be buying one.

i'm not too concerned if they shut down the 4th room, sure i bring my records out for nothing but its a $5.00 cab ride back home. Plus i get to meet djs and get some records signed.

I didnt pay any money, I wont complain. Got 2 other gigs in may. Both playing techno.

superstar DJ ppcock wasn't there though.

you realize that fnk alone will bring at least 10 people to the 4th stage for him...and that's a good fuckin sized crowd for 4th stage.

plus big sweaty marty....who could resist not staring at his glistening body while workin the tables?

The 4th stage is there to display the new talent in Vancouver...wether it be good dj's, or bad. Its essentially smoke pit entertainment music... ive seen the 4th room crowds grow to over 35-40 people... thats pretty good considering people are "too busy" smoking. For most djs its an opportunity to play, and believe it or not some get noticed cause of it (Wether it be good or bad aswell). I personally see it as "getting used" to playing live and with a pretty pumpin system, every dj gets the jitters their first track into the set, its perfect practice to make yourself get rid of those damn jitters. As for complaining about the 4th stage... ive played to both decently large crowds and empty crowds at one point, in the end its about the music, the love for it, its fun just knowing you got booked because in the end you can remember the good times of the party, and also say "I have spun at this party"... so spending an extra 2-4 hundred dollars isnt that big of a loss (considering the 4th stage doesnt consist anymore than 2 vertigo lights, a shimmer light, maybe some truss, scaffolding, decks +mixer, monitor 'in some occasions; which is good cause people need to polish their mixing skills with JUST their headphones and ears', 2 Bassbins and 2 hightops.) Believe it or not, its as good as or MAYBE better than any underground raves LATELY. People arent going there for the 4th stage... so quit your bitching, suck it up and party!

what do you mean ".....what a disgrace. i feel sorry for the dj's who get shoved into that shit of a room. solid stop trying to make more money by doing that shit...."

how are they "making" more money by doing that paying for 10 local DJ's to play on a stage in the same building as ICEY and BK...... wouldn't they be losing money because this stage sucks so bad apparently so it wont attract the people which means stan will have paid people for nothing really....... so wouldn't this make him losing money??? why doesn't he just scrap the whole 4th room to make money.........

Look if you dont go to 4th room for atleast some time something is wrong because we gotta support our locals you know, after all they are the next big things and who knows maybe u will be partying at that stage with a future headliner dj.....

PPS i do go there and it isn't to smoke.

Yeah, the 4th stage usually does lick. But, it's not just the DJ, it's the crowd too. They/Someone's gotta have the courage to warm up to a DJ when there's no one around to hopefully attract more partiers. It sucks being the first person. The music could be good, but most people don't listen to techno/ trance/ house/ breaks/ hard dance.. They'll trust what others trust. I've seen some SHITTY 4th stages, but you know, i've seen some pretty amazing ones too. Most of which were fnk driven!

I don't see playing the 4th stage as being shitty. Would you complain if you were a bench warmer for the Canucks? You're there right? The party is going to be sick (BK is going to rock it! Icey i've been dying to see and I haven't seen Josh the Funk1 in YEARS) and i'm more than happy to be a contributing part of it. I guess it's really up to Solid Corp to get their marketing out to the right party kinda people.

But you're all right, the 4th stage needs some tuning..

I'm going to keep this short and simple. Due to the lack of "underground" parties in our scene lately, the # of DJ's who wish to strive to get their name out within the scene has dropped dramatically. So what's with the fourth stage? The Fourth stage is a way to propel some DJ's who are looking to spin for the heck of spinning or looking for a good time and trying to let the public know that they do exist. The people who actually get booked on the fourth stage are the DJ's I respect because they work from their bottom and hopefully they'll get to the main room, second room or third room.

It doesn't matter if it's hurting it's a place to start and I'm pretty sure a lot of people would actually be happy to take up an opportunity like that. So instead of bashing the company and saying that it's shit why don't you take some time and appreciate the upcoming talent that we have in this scene? Like some have said they are the future faces that you will be seeing at raves. Look at all the second room and third room locals they've all spent their time spinning at these "underground" parties and now look where they are at.

I think the fourth stage is an excellent opportunity for DJ's to get their recognition. Even though it's not much it's still somewhere for them to start.

Correct me if I'm wrong but who are the same Trance DJ's? Besides the local residents of the company I don't see any same trance headliner coming to town. Usually resident DJ's play at their own parties.

The only person who has been here in the main room is BK. Other than that JK Walker, Marcos and Kyau vs Albert will all be making their first ever appearences in Vancouver. That's pretty fresh if you ask me.

actually, for the past 4 years.. I've only played at underground shows.

Their scene is actually doing quite well without the advertising.. hence the term underground.

None the less.. I cant wait to play an insane trance set for everyone.
