    Oakenfold's dyslexia has been publicized in the past, along with Bill Gates. I don't really see the issue.

    What's there to fight about? The only thing I have posted that could be personal was probably in post 35. I have only stated some facts.

    Paul Oakenfold was and inspiration to many DJ's and not the ones you think. Read the sleeve notes to Tenaglia's Global Underground, or some interviews with Norman J or Terry Farley and many many more. When he first opened Spectrum he owed the club £12,000 and allowed his backers to walk away from the debt. £12k was a lot of money in 1987. He went on to have one off the most legendary residencies, do some legendary Essential Mixes and release some brilliant Cd's. Yes his mixing isn't great, but if your tracks are shit, few people will be interested. What was that track from Absolutely Fabulous that Vazquez sampled? Fucking appalling.

    I remember Sasha telling the story of when he first played Sound Factory. As soon as he started his set, he couldn't understand why the Sound was so terrible, none of the people working there were willing to help him our. He finished his set and Vasquez came on. Sasha hung around the booth and noticed that they had put a hidden control panel in the booth the Vazquez turned on at the start of his set and the sound system really kicked into life.

    Still no mention about why you included race, colour, creed or sexuality in your statement.

    Interestingly that so called Arena night makes it sound a lot bigger that it was, check Wikipedia for the capacity. LOL.

    Kinda funny how cd's really screwed him over. Nina Kraviz still plays vinyl, so does Sven Vath.
