Why is PVD NorthAmerica agents so hard to work with?!

We've been trying for the last year to have Paul Van Dyk booked, but the North American agents just don't seem to give a crap. We've talked to the UK agents and they are totally cool, but can't do anything for us.

It's not that we dont have a rep, the money etc.. just seems you have to be in the "IN" crowd or something to get him.

Past DJ's:
Darude (laugh if you want, it was a fun show)
Polywog
DJ Brian a couple times
Shy Brothers
DJ Macgyver
Ben Shir
there's more too but I dont want to bore you all

Mind you this is for Regina SK.. and yes, we do have a scene there and its pretty damn wikkid.

No offense, but no one on that list comes even close to ranking near PVD.

That said, it's almost impossible to get him. Apparently you have to pretty much book 3-4 other DJs on their roster before they'll consider you.

can you blame her? she manages the most in demand DJ(Id say)
his draw is immensly more than tiesto or digger or armin or anybody really.
Why not make them pay out the ass for profiting off your talent?

Judge Jules
Deep Dish
Sander Kleinenberg

And many many more.... that's 10 of the 20 top dj's ranked by DJ Mag. And yes, we still have trouble booking PVD. Don't take it too harsh.

allright

k, im from peg, and we providing the money is there,we can get anyone pretty well, PvD isnt the most saught after Tiesto most certainly is right now IMO, and right fully so, did u check out tiesto live @ inner city 03, regardless, regina will not draw a big enough crowd to make a profit on a name like Van Dyk, neither would winnipeg, to many fuckin farmers ect.....Soundwave allready brought Gielen here and had a bad turn out in a trance energy style of venue , its just the way it is, there is nothin for numbers or electronica on the praries, to much rural run off into the cities......people who are scared to be out of the ordinary, thus populating the crap top 40 bars...as far as im concerned they can stay there, they all make me sick to my stomach.
