We got a call from the agent to have Paul play a proper CLUB gig. -- His music style belongs in a club not a rave and so what better way to appreciate it that much more, than in a intimate setting put on CARGO style.

I've always wanted to see him at a club.

Ree Fresh · #5 (**permalink**) Mar 17, 05

Pete Tong, Lisa Lashes and now Oaky... nice work! Good to see more and more big talent in Vancouver!

*cough*still waiting for carl cox*cough*

This is gonna be a sick one can't wait to see Oakenfold at a club with drinks this time around :D

Worst top 10 DJ ... ever! Honestly after seeing him at Twisted's "Crave" , where he looked so bored ( despite an eager crowd of over 1500 people screaming his name ) , didn't do anything special, left 15 minutes early with the tables just spinning there, then told Danny T that Vancity was "ho-hum" .

I vowed that day to never support him in any way again. Nothing against Twisted, I know you guys are just trying to bring huge talent our way and I always support you for it.

nuf_dawg · #10 (**permalink**) Mar 18, 05

sweet dickenfolds comming back:D haha this time i dont wwanna miss out:)

Seany G · #11 (**permalink**) Mar 18, 05

Damn thats pricey! I'm going to have to scrounge for this one!

For me its a toss up between Sander K and Oakie. If it comes down to it I'll choose Sander K! :D

Tayfoon · #12 (**permalink**) Mar 18, 05

I hate him

and that is WAAAAY too much

although I understand he is not cheap

FeelGood · #13 (**permalink**) Mar 18, 05

wow ONLY $50 and $65 thereafter...

holy shit boys!

id love to make it out to this one, but with that price, no way in hell. would end up being over a $150 night.

yah I know its Paul Oakenfold, and he is an expensive dj, and its at a smaller venue, but that one night is way to much!

Tayfoon · #14 (**permalink**) Mar 18, 05

He is incredibly expensive

Twisted isnt just jacking up prices to make a quick buck here

I was shocked to hear about the $$ myself

Hot Karl · #15 (**permalink**) Mar 18, 05

he was awesome at the commodore 2 years ago. but after what everyone said about crave, i wouldn't touch this with a clown pole.

sorry twisted.

BenGiovanni · #16 (**permalink**) Mar 18, 05

oakenfold
nothing too special, after seeing him at crave... I personally lost all respect...commmon now
smaller crowds are fun to rock... so why show all the attitude at crave... (he shoulda made the most of it)
But at a club, well see how his performance shapes the already iffy ego he produced for Vancouver, other than that, props for another big name in Vancouver.

Say what you want about the man, this club night does not really need any of you there to pack this night. You could charge $120 and two days notice and this event would sell out. Oh yea this has like a 350 person capacity so lets give it $150 and 1 days notice!!!

People are not idiots my friend

Maybe in 2001 you wouldve been right, but Oakey has been losing popularity for years

miSsy_chriSsy · #21 (**permalink**) Mar 19, 05

O.... MY............ GOD.

I still have my "Oakenfold Sucks" T-shirt form www.Ishkur.com. He's got a mullet and he's saying "MAH-SIVE" in the picture. It's hot.

Don't worry I'll be there, I was pretty sure I was going to go to this before Tong, and now after Tong I want to go even more.
