    Best DJ you've seen live.

    Ok,

    So....I'm kinda new to the boards. Being from small town, wisconsin we dont have many crazy acts pass through...

    The biggest acts I've seen are James Zabiela, Deep Dish, Hernan Cattaneo, Sandra Collins, and Oakenfold.

    JZ and Deep Dish are neck'n'neck for the best show I've seen!!

    I'm wondering who is the best DJ that you've seen live....

    too many to say just one. but by far the most memorable was Sasha spitting out cow-spander at love parade in Berlin. hearing that for the first time getting mushed in a crowd of over a million people is something you can never forget.
    once upon a time, machines were mice, and men were lions. now that its the opposite, it's twice upon a time

        Wow two great pics there....I was also at both those shows and they were excellent..

        I would have to add sasha and digweed at space 2003, (along with randall jones, q6,3, sander, porter, ect ect ect who also played at the same gig) (still got to be the best lineup ever made for show)

                        was some bullshit they were closed last year. left lawlers party a bit early to catch satoshi's saw party, but there was just a note on the door.

                        is it still called angel ultra lounge?

                            I'm going to go off the board and rather than say the best "DJ" I'll say the best set in an enviroment and time of my life that mattered most. I've been doing this (dj'ing) a long, looong f***ing time and have never looked for any recognition even in my own small circle (Cincinnati) but last year at the WMC is my favorite "DJ" experience. After missing the previous WMC because of cancer the night I hung at Red Bull house with d:fuse, my friend Xarene and the rest of the S.F. crew listening to D and Groovefire play and then heading over to Porterhouse is most memorable. I remember working our way through the crowd and getting to the balcony behind the booth and Ian Wilke putting down a set I just loved... That, while hanging with my friends, meeting the guys from Infusion for the first time and trying not to fall over from the incredible amount of crown and red bull we had consumed ranks ahead of anything I've ever heard or done before or since. It was nice just to be introduced and recognized for once. That and Ian's set, the club, crowd and everything just kind of made me feel as if what I do does matter.... The rest of the night/morning is a total blur until sometime around 11am at breakfast in Bed but I wouldn't trade that for every great (insert DJ's name here) night in the world. It probably sounds petty but when you live in Cincinnati it was truely a big deal... to me anyway.
