Evil1 WorlD PARTY / WET GROOVES ARE THIEVES

I have to say that anyone who supports the World Party, Wet Grooves, or any of their affiliations are contributing to thieves. Over WMC 2007, they paid almost none of the talent at the 5 or more events they produced in Miami. Those of you who paid their overpriced tickets were contributing to their pocketbooks and most of the amazing talent never got paid. This is being taken to court and I wanted to make everyone aware of this. They also do events in Dallas and also trying to do them in San Francisco. If you love the music, please support legit promoters who pay their talent and don't make excuses.

BOTTOM LINE IS THEY DO OK PARTIES, BUT THE TALENT ARE NEVER PAID. SAD PEOPLE WHO ARE DESTROYING THE SCENE. THEY DON'T EVEN HAVE THE BALLS TO CONTACT BACK AND MAKE EXCUSES. OK, I AM DONE WITH MY TANGENT.

PEACE.

Wow that stinks, my friends Gabe and Arthur played during wmc at Wet Grooves...and they never said anything about getting stiffed.

admittedly they mentioned how vip was going to be separated and a certain bar and seating area was going to be set aside for those who paid the extra money..and lied.

myself and a friend paid for the tix (totalling 130 bux combined) and they basically took it as regular admission, citing that they closed down half the club because it wasnt doign the business it thought it would do.

so they crammed who was left into one of the areas and i basically got to see christopher lawrence, svd, above and beyond, and andy moor in a room filled with a bunch of sweaty meatheads trying to knock down the flaked up dancers in bikinis dancing on the bars.

i thoght that was pretty f***ed up considering that they didnt even offer an explanation or half of my money back seeing as how i paid double with the normal people did and got the same crap.

It's because they don't give a shit about the clubber. They overcharge and everyone gets screwed in the process(DJ/Clubber/Venue/Etc). Sad but true. Sorry you went through that. Don't go next year, if they are still going to do another party. Doubt they will be able to get enough talent at this point. They owe too much money to everyone. So many legit parties that are worth the money and those are the ones I will be attending. Never ever Wetgrooves again. Scammers.

nah i'm done


Posted by Eyekon on May-10-2007 02:07:

ok brief synopsis:

Wet Grooves = expensive, bad

yadda yadda yadda..

dj's i know say they got shafted as well performing for wetgrooves.

sucks. wont be goin again.


Posted by MeLLyMeL on May-10-2007 02:41:

oh

i posted in west coast forums cuz i didn't know it was here.

haha.

well w/e

i believe it.. i think that's wack and lame. As I said before it's all Breach of Contract.

buuuuuuuuuuuut who knows cuz i doubt out-of-country dj's have work visa's.

then that's another shit hole to deal with.


Posted by Eyekon on May-10-2007 02:45:

Ironically if you look at the lineup almost 80% of the dj's were from here..

you have Andy Moor, Gabriel and Dresden, Donald Glaude, basic perspective, Robbie Rivera, Starkillers, Christopher Lawrence, George Acosta, and alot of other US dj's that played there that i dont even remember seeing play..but were listed.

why they would want to stiff dj's when they deal busincess in their own back yard just goes to show the level of incompetence they are willing to stoop to for the almighty dollar.


Posted by SPACEMASTERS on May-10-2007 03:14:

This is odd considering many artist get paid prior to playing at any gig, esp some that played for wetgrooves...


Posted by worldpartysux on May-10-2007 03:36:

Evil1

Have a look at DJ Rap's MySpace blog and see what she had to say about being screwed. It's sad, really. I don't know how people sleep at night doing these things. I am done with this. Karma is all I can say.

Great hair! Love the avatar!

And about this topic, that totally sucks


Posted by freakster on May-11-2007 20:05:

whoever posted this is an idiot.

the world party has been doing events for a long time. i have known djs who have played for them as well as people who have worked on their shows and all of them have gotten paid.

do you think that they could stay in business this long booking some of the biggest names for their shows like paul oakenfold, christopher lawrence, year in and year out.

yeah, i'm sure oakenfold would keep going back if he wasn't getting paid.

to me it sounds like a competitor trying to talk shit.
