Twisted

Does anyone else agree that they have SUCKED this year, partly can be due to issues out of there control but its obvious they are no longer who they used to be.

The only rave that actually worked out was the one with armin. And the joint party with solid.

Crave was a big disappointment (due to the venue and oakenfold), we all know what happened for halloween (once again venue problems creating the mess).

Hopefully 2005 they come back? I think its time they stop trying to find new venues because it never works out in the end anyways.

Twisted threw down the sickest parties and the will continue doing, so just wait till they find a kick ass venue. I'm sure Twisted will be back in full force in 2005. I had a blast at every Twisted party, best parties were, Simple 4, Wett, Heat, Spooky 7, Twisted 2002 and 2004.

Im with James no one wants to party at the MLC all the time and personally I hate the colossium. Twisted shoudl find a new venue I believe they are the only large company willing to try and I figure they will come through soon. Twisted has been around in the scene for many a year they have earned respect some things have happened this year yes but Im sure this comming year they will show all ya naysayers what is up..

Twisted has an awesome track record, buddy. They've been promoting and throwing some of Vancouver's biggest events for 6+ years now. How long have you been in the scene? A year? Less? Are you referring to Armin's appearance at Twisted 2004? Or his club night back in October? Cuz club nights are not raves. The venue problems with Spooky were beyond Twisted's control. Zen and Twisted 2004 went off this past year, their clubnights are always packed, and their maritime shows arn't bad either.

You say Twisted should stop looking for other venues. What the hell for? There are PNE parties every 3-4 months. People are already getting sick of partying in that place despite Solid's attempts at innovation and making the setups interesting. In order for this scene to grow, we have to find new places to party, its that simple. Honestly, if its so easy to legalize new venues and pack them full of paying customers then there would be more massives in this city.

Scenes always have their ups and downs, especially in a competetive scene such as this. I'm sure Twisted will rebound in a few months, but in the meantime, you really have no right to tell them they plain sucked this year. Especially when the team at Twisted puts so much blood, sweat, and tears, into trying to give ravers great shows.

My advice to you, Deec, is have faith.

Your thoughts are interesting Deec... I appreciate your honesty in some of the comments. Curious to know why this was posted in a public forum though? Certainly if you have or had any questions/concerns with Twisted moving forward, you can feel free to PM/message me directly.

Frankly I think you're smoking something fierce of you believe that we've "sucked" this past year. Are you basing this on the count that we haven't thrown a massive at the PNE Colesium? -- I think you need to take a step back and look at the bigger picture and the talent we have brought in the past year not only to a "rave" but also to our numerous club nights. In fact the success of these club nights has been AWESOME. -- Those that attended Roger Sanchez will know what I'm talking about.

As for no longer being what we used to be... what company EVER stays the same as they once were? -- NO ONE DOES. Companies have to change/flex with the times and demand, etc. which I believe we have done very well considering the red tape and lack of venues in this city.

Above all, the three of us that run Twisted; Azim, Dennis and I are best friends that are working towards a common goal and purpose - to throw quality events, bring world class talent and further exposure Vancouver to the international scene of electronic music. Over the years as well, we have formed strong friendships with the various promoters and DJ's that share in this same purpose from not only here in Vancouver but around the world. -- We all have a mutual respect for one another and will continue to.

I am confident in saying that we will continue to throw raves, club nights and other types of events in the city. Should that ever change as I always have done, I will communicate that. I can assure you though, we have a lot up our sleeves yet!

Cheers.

It looks to me as if companies arent putting more into their shows when it comes to decorations and lighting/visuals compared to when they did at the Plaza parties.

Armin wasnt a "rave" and the joint rave with Solid is what got them in this mess in the first place

You weren't even around when plaza parties were big, so your thoughts on the matter are a moot point.

Twisted has thrown sooo many good parties and will continue too..personally I hate the collesium, theres nothing about it I enjoy and Im glad twisted isnt throwing parties there. Give a little respect to a company trying to throw good quality parties for people like you to go to.
