epic fail


Posted by enydo on Aug-29-2008 03:52:

Damn, I wanna see him live too.


Posted by iammesol on Aug-29-2008 04:50:

I still have yet to get my side by side picture, and I've seen him twice


Posted by nchs09 on Aug-29-2008 05:22:

ah there is a funny pic of me and him somewhere.. ill try to find it.


Anyhow last time i saw him i ran into sam, i must of looked mega-fucked

actually i kinda did


and some chica tjat was passed out

Studio A that night was so fantastic... best night of WMC by far for us!


Posted by nrjizer on Aug-29-2008 13:00:

Epic fail, indeed.


Posted by Liquified on Aug-29-2008 13:47:

the turnout for the last time he was here with Nic Fanculli was an epic fail as well.


Posted by iammesol on Aug-29-2008 14:18:



I don't doubt you one bit, but when was this taken then?


Posted by Liquified on Aug-29-2008 14:52:

you and i both know that wetbar is an easy place to have a small turnout and still appear to be busier then it is. Less then 125 in the building that night for that type of line-up is an epic fail.

It was on a Wednesday, though. And their set was anything but epic fail.

Good God! No further statements from me

That's an extremely valid point.

still VERY weak for a wednesday with that line-up. I don't think people realize the types of costs that go into a lot of shows.


Posted by iammesol on Aug-29-2008 15:35:

Damn, we'd have to roadtrip to DC

But obviously you can't expect to win them all. I want to honestly ask: do you expect not to make enough from shows like Cox/Sasha/Schulz/Tiesto to balance the risk of someone like Zabiela (who is still pretty popular himself)?

If there are other reasons for him not coming, such as date conflicts, etc... fine. But you're making it sound as if the primary reason why he isn't coming to Atlanta on this tour is becuase it's too much of a financial risk.

I do.

And with all due respect, the only place I've seen get packed on a wednesday is the Drunken Unicorn. From what I've seen and hear, ATL sucks with turnout when it's not on a Friday or Saturday.

No you can't expect to win them all but when you have made an investment several times on a certain product and it has continually lost you money then why would you make that same investment for a 5th time?

Thats not true, we do a lot of large events on weeknights that do a lot more then 125 people. Boris 2 weeks ago did 1100 on a weeknight. Yes it was tagged along with the playboy thing but it worked. For Markus Schulz I have already sold more then 125 tickets for a Thursday night and I expect it to be a large night. But even Fridays and Saturdays are gaurentees in Atlanta. Atlanta is a very ify market sometimes but we do what we can to keep it going.

If the turnout for Loliland or "Celebrity DJ" Samantha Ronson is any better, I will cry. Sadly, I have little doubt that it will be better.

It's tough working in an industry that you are passionate about because much of the time, it doesn't matter what you like because you've gotta pay the bills.

Those bookings are due to the fact that we may be changing the friday night format to a more mainstream night and moving all the other dj stuff we do to Saturdays. Stay tuned for that.

awesomeness!

PS: I've got to wonder, does anyone really buy into the whole "Celebrity DJ" thing? What does that really even mean anyway? Seems like the all of the "Celebrity DJs" that I have spun with have used that term to compensate for...well...actual celebrity. I once even had one guy tell me "well, I spin for a bunch of [B-list] celebrities out in LA, so I guess that makes me a Celebrity DJ". LOL
