    Not that great of achievement if you ask me. Most acts sell out the O2 in 5mins now. It took him nearly 2 years. Maybe he's not as popular as everybody suggests.

    Ah he has to be - that amount of views on his tracks on youtube is pretty serious, up there with the Lady Gagas etc of this world. Youtube views and comments are definitely a good indicator of popularity, as is selling out a venue the size of the o2.

    He's become the Tiesto of the non-trance world - its no surprise he's selling out the 02. There are 10x the amount of people who "loike dance music, trance n tekno - yaknow" than there are genuine electronic music enthusiasts. Most Americans have not clue the difference between house/trance/techno/electro - it's all the same to them..

    I completely agree with the above comments. Especially more so that I live in an area that has an incredibly small base of people with any knowledge of electronic music of a nature different to the above quote in bold.
