hahaha what the fuk you doing on Tiestos web site Rory?

**MARKEG** · 10-09-2006, 10:31 AM

looking at all after much thought, i think this is a best at marketing poll (with a smidgin of entertainment skills thrown in).

so in that respect i shouldn't be getting p'ed about my inbox being full of it. no, on the contary, i should admire the fact that they're good at what they are doing.

instead, i am now pissed with MYSELF for not setting the rule in my inbox that if it says 'DJ Mag Poll' it gets sent straight to

JUNK

love tha call out by lee buridge

"Anal sex is fun and all but in between poundings go and vote for ME in this cursed thing know as 'the dj mag top 100'. Go... and drag my sorry arse up from a pathetic 78, which is where I was beaten down to last year by lots of DJ's neither you or I have ever heard of (and still haven't). It seems canvassing voters is the only way to achieve any sort of ranking. I have always loathed this approach but due to (almost) falling into chart obscurity now have to 'play the game'. I'm definitely the 7th best DJ in the world but if YOU (imagine me pointing out of the screen right now) can help me get to six or higher i'll definitely buy you a pint of cider down the pub to celebrate. The voting has started and a dj mag insider has told me I've already got four votes (thanks mum, dad, peanut and tiesto) so click the link and then, if you have any love, make everybody you know vote to. DO IT!!!!! I'm planning on a world tour, not to dj but to canvass for votes via handshaking, kissing babies and speeches full of promises of what I'll do once IN POWER at number 7 in the chart...or higher if you get on it enough."

not at all.
this is why parties arent (at least here) visited as much as before and why we are having "everything's going down" topics from time to time...

djs take themself a bit too seriuos today. if you can't entertain the crowd, move away and give space to somebody who can, simple as that.

sorry mate - for me it's bullsh*t. i never care bout what the dj does, it makes me laugh when they shout with the public; i am not watching them for "entertainment"; only music that counts.
i used to like watching millsey - 100% focused on what he's doing, concentrated... i dunno if it's the same these days.

the only thing i hate - when dj's look like they were serving some punishment or behaving VIP style . when i saw ian pooley 6 years ago, he looked like he hated all people he was playing for. tired maybe..

and when it comes to art... the only art in 4/4 dance music is making people dance :cheese:

so true, i hate going to some nights when the dj just does his thing and plays completely the wrong sound for the club.

thats great. :lol: :clap:

**Mucky Beats** · 12-09-2006, 01:17 PM

vote for me he he he....

bit sad realy telling people to to vote for you init... I know many do it because they feel they need it to get one step higher in the bookings world and up there FEE ! but come on asking people to vote for you is a little poo init... i think maybe best way to run a poll if one is bloody needed is maybe a IN CLUB vote ...granted the same big names would be at the top due to the size crowds and sheep they play to...but to be fair some djs like carl cox should be at the top of the pile i feel. but at least with a in club vote by clubbers and djs it would be the opinion of the people that go out and see the djs peform ... that has to be better than some turd who has nver been out of there bedroom voting for some dj they havent ever seen!!!!!!

right im up for setting this up who's up for helping ? ha ha ha

**mikehumphries** · 12-09-2006, 02:23 PM

this poll, and indeed most articles in this magazine is quite simply to supply a bit of padding between all the ads. if i had a million quid for each time somebody asked me to vote for them this week, we would all be going on a major binge next weekend.

**RDR** · 13-09-2006, 11:30 AM

Give me 50p and ill vote for you mike

Or perhaps you could buy me a beer.
