these DJ's have all played promise

i know the old promise goers will know this, but to those who aint bee going that long, would you believe all of these dj's have played at promise in the past:

they may come as a shock if you think promise has always been eddie halliwell and rob tissera

rowan blades (breeder)
tyrant
jimmy van m
james zabiela
jon pleased wimmin
gordon kaye
slacker
chris fortier
hybrid
jon creamer
pete gooding
saeed and palash
ian ossia
sandra collins
kinda doubt any of these will ever be back, now its all a lot harder!

Re: these DJ's have all played promise

it can onlee be a good thing

wish i would have seen hybrid now!

It's a shame aswell!! Pete Gooding was class!! I think mark said that slacker mite be back!!!

too right its a shame!
but the people who wanted eddie halliwell, rob tissera, yoji, etc spoke and they were booked!

hybrid were good, though the club was really empty if i remember rightly

Aye, they were quality like.

Parks & Wilson have played too !

Parks and Wilson never miss a beat!! they are technicaly sound!

Ive seen most of them djs play promise in the old days. the truth is i doubt promise ould still exist if they continued to book those djs! they were hardly making any money out of those nites!

no

they were all over the place like.

anyone go to see saheed and palesh??
i quite enjoyed it if i remember rightly

The Anthony Pappa night when he played a 3hr set was unreal, one of the best Promise nights for me, also the night he was on before Matt H, one of the hardest prog warms ups ive heard....

i know a lot of these djs didnt fill promise, but neither do a lot of todays
johan gielen wasnt busy, and i was surprised at how quiet matt hardwick was last night
it just shows if they arent a household name, people in newcastle arent prepared to investigate.
same as tonight, i doubt it will be any fuller than when people like anthony pappa, max graham etc played.
its just more people on this board want yoji biomehanika than jimmy van m, and thats why they play now

Re: these DJ's have all played promise

lets also remember promise never started out as a pure underground unfiltered untampered prog club

Keeping any weekly clubs numbers up is a huge task theres always going to be quiet night.. however if u played a months owrht of hard trance nights and a months worth of prog nights - I guess the prog would be much quieter nights.

Re: Re: these DJ's have all played promise

the point im trying to make is some of the nights now with the new music policy are no busier than the prog nights, johna gielen wasnt very busy, and it wasnt rammed for matt hardwick 5hrs either.
the new music policy doesnt mean the club is at capacity does it?

you're forgetting a certain mr seaman.

oh yeah, and some guy named sasha

The worlds no1 dj !!!

i know he played, and nick warren, dave seaman, anthony pappa, i was just listing the smaller names that once played promise.

i wish dave and nick would play again, i know daves at the bd, but he aint gonna headline is he?

I couldn't believe how quiet it was when hardwick was on, maybe something to do with valentine's day.
I think the best thing to do is get the right balance between the more serious prog and the more hands in the air trance
