I think this is a pretty damn good indicator that hardcore's gaining prominence... I managed somehow to land a set (though it sounds crappy) at a nearby public high school. I'm doing it for free though... think about it!
If we have the population of a suburban american school demanding hardcore... it's gaining definite foothold. Hardcore's chugging forward ;)
All said, this is gonna be one crappy gig.

Um, they DO know what hardcore is. They brought me in specifically for that reason. In fact, they're advertising it with the slogan 'And you thought your school didn't know how to party hard!'
Yeah, sorta a "WTF!?" situation but hell.
I'm actually starting off uplifting trance and after maybe... you're shining and starlight dropping in spinback & storm - break the night. It's all uphill from there. I might even end with bang da beatz or ghosts...

^^^ hahah actually I did the same thing when I was in high school. I used to DJ most of the school dances for all the students and I dropped Force mass motion - Jack of diamonds back in 1992... people were like doing cartwheels and stuff :)

I would kill for the chance to spin hardcore at a high school, if only to see the look on their faces. How did you manage it without having the rave/drugs connection come up? I'm 100% positive the cops in my town would equate even house music to hoards of people on e.
