I don't think that was a comment on Jeroen, his skills or his reputation. For Kenz, one of the highlights of the evening was dancing to Jeroen's Monty on the Run dance mashup. A lot of people were there only to watch PPOT.grasstust wrote:In my opinion he is right up there with Rob, and I was saddened to see him pretty much playing for nobody at the Copenhagen Retro Concert.
I would say that most people bought tickets to see Ben and Rob primarily and then PPOT & SID80s, people didn't know much about VR and nothing at all about AD, but after we told them about the bands, people were very interested---especially in VR.A lot of people were there only to watch PPOT.
I'm afraid there is a well documented history behind this: some Jeroen tunes were meant to be appearing on Back in Time 1, but I had to remove them again.grasstust wrote:Hi there, mr. Abbot!
The point is, we've now had soooooooo much Hubbard, Galway, Dagliesh tunes, and I think I think it's time that you, PPOT, SID80s and the rest of you guys start playing Jeroen Tel tunes. I'm afraid the classics are really getting worn out. Please expand the musical horizon a bit!
You mean 'we' as in 'you' right? From our (SID80s) point of view, we had to do tunes that most of us knew quite well anyway. Having a band who can't rehearse, limits what you can do.grasstust wrote: The point is, we've now had soooooooo much Hubbard, Galway, Dagliesh tunes, and I think I think it's time that you, PPOT, SID80s and the rest of you guys start playing Jeroen Tel tunes.

Let's see. "We" as in if you see the amount of remixes and tunes from the coverbands.. There's been a lot of the three golden ones. And I for one love it, but I would like to see other composers being covered aswell. A good example was the response "Giana Sisters" and "Turrican 2" got when Axes Denied played them.madfiddler wrote: You mean 'we' as in 'you' right?

However, you may or may not have noticed that we've worked Think Twice 3 into the set now, and that's not even a game tune. We're going to do more lesser known tracks in the future, if there are any other gigs. We do try to do one new number each time, and we were to do Nemesis this time for the first time, but we were unable to...
In 10 years time we'll have a whole set's worth of material and be able to organise our own gigs, lol.
I do see your point, and take it on boardgrasstust wrote:Let's see. "We" as in if you see the amount of remixes and tunes from the coverbands.. There's been a lot of the three golden ones.

). Tel was a great guy! Really easy going and a fab DJ. I think I enjoyed his set the most (thanks Makke and Kenz for the dance).
