I'd say that was completely uncalled for. ppcock still hasn't posted about how your mom gave him the clap. somethings are just best left alone.

If you are going to insult her over something, you should come up with something better than calling her a whore. PS - The only person she whored around with was Alje, and at the time, they were in a committed relationship. If dating is now whoring, then I guess me and every other girl on this board is a whore too. Get some new material, your jokes are played.

its not like this whole thread was atilla bashing. No reason for anyone to get so overly defensive, only reason Atillas name was big in this was his shows sell really well and for stupid prices, he should be the last one paying under what was promised.

The party in question was a joint venture (between AGRO & Bassline) as far as I knew when you hired me (when I was approached/hired by you, there was no mention of my payment being someone else's responsibility until after everything including the party, had been said and done). You told me your partner was pissed that he lost money and as a result didnt think I should be paid the full amount. The amount proposed to me was enough to cover MY expenses on the flyer (as I pay Justin for his 3D work... and yes I paid him upon it's completion, before the flyer was even printed). However, you suggested that I wait until after Kiss, because your partner would be in 'better spirits' and would be more likely to pay me the full agreed-upon amount.. so I waited. The rest is history: I've been trying to get ahold of you since Kiss, and have yet to get a reply (no returned phone messages, no answer on msn, even after you just signed on and are visibly online on FnK), until just now in this thread. The way I see it this could just as easily be a case of this: Quote:
I would have preferred to speak with you privately on the matter, but it's clear that you were not willing to. You know my number and msn if you want to talk about this, and I'll be more than willing to delete this post, but this conversation has been LONG overdue.

You guys would have not sold out if you didnt have a certain someone help selling tickets. Lets just say the type of crowed showed it. As a DJ your sound was not what I would call a "good set up" In the main room there was trouble with the speakers going on and off and we had lots of bad feed back in the second room and I was asked to turn the moniters up to bring out more sound (killing my ears) As for the decorations... the second room was decorated with scraps from sinful and apex. Quote:
Ben sorry but you havnt been in this scene long enough... im sure in a few more years youll get sick of sucking up, selling tickets, playing for free and dealing with promoters trying to bargen for a better slot. How are you ever going to get yourself anywhere as a DJ? Honestly sometimes I feel like im telling a promoter im a no body DJ when I cant give them a decent fee. Quote:
As for the additude... im not going to worrie when I have promoters and well experinced buisness ppl suporting me on this topic. If anything the additude of how the 'rave scene' goes/works should be reviewed. You obviously missed out on it 6+ years ago. Last edited by Ree Fresh; Apr 20, 06 at 12:00 AM.

OK Richard
Would you like to speak with him yourself then? He's not a very rational kind of guy, to say the least To be honest he'd probably just hit ya. Thats why I take care of the personal and business relations. And I do a good job of it. If I didn't then I wouldn't have the respect I do in most crowds in Vancouver from House and Trance to Live Hip Hop. As I said, I'm sorry he screwed ya, but I'm not going to pay you out of my own pocket for his debts. I did my best for you, and tried to get your $100. He said no, he thinks you didn't put effort into it. You could say I'm taking the easy way out and blaming someone else. But unfortunatly that is the case. There's nothing I can do about it. Next time you see him, ask him yourself

I still think that as the person who hired me, it's your responsibility to tie up these loose ends. Aside from that, even if you never intended on compensating me, it was very unprofessional to just shrug me off and avoid me without any explanation. (so for the record, the last time we spoke, you said that you WOULD have the money for me, just that it would have to wait until you got the money from Kiss) Once again, I would rather have talked about this privately...

I don't want to take sides, but ive recently gotten in a simular situation like this. I was asked by a promoter to contact/ask 2 DJ's to play for them. Basikly I was made the middle man. I was the one who made the calls and sent the emails to confirm the contract leaving the promoters contact info at the end. It didnt occure to me untill after that if anything goes wrong... I dam well better not be blamed for or expected to take any responsibility by the DJ's. Riachard your situation totaly blows... like you said this entire thread can realate well to anyone else 'working' for shady promoters in this industry.
