Armand Van Helden got booed off at Space for playing old school hip hop.

Originally posted by SYSTEM-J When I saw 2 Many DJs they went down really well, but they were obviously playing a completely pre-planned set, and they didn't have any records left at the end when the crowd were shouting for one more tune. So they were loudly booed as they went off, minutes after tearing shit up.

the clever person in you would goto see them again with a sign "2 many djs, 2 few tunes"

The clever person in me wouldn't go again, as it was merely a stadium sized reproduction of what many local DJs do every Saturday night.

The clever person in me wants to go to a Tenaglia gig holding a huge sign that says "Hello Danny, I'm recording your set"

I just remembered that I read about an incident with Tiesto in El Salvador where he got on stage 2 hours later than scheduled and played only like a 1 hour set or something. Both him and the guy that was warming up for him got all sorts of shit thrown at them like water bottles, beer cans, rocks, etc. I remember watching a video where the warm-up guy had to pull a Carl Cox and hide underneath the tables all throughout his last hour, and only barely got up just to mix songs. Of course, it had nothing to do with the music that was played.

I have seen Josh Wink booed off a stage ages ago. He actually cried. To stick up for him, he has come a long way since then.

James Lavelle was booed at (not off the stage) WMC a few years back at the Ultra Carry on that was held at the American Airlines arena in Miami. James did not transition tracks. He played songs from start to end for about a half an hour before the crowd got restless.

back in 05, Lavelle & Holden were playn @ my local club. Lavelle comes on & plays the worst set ive ever experienced. when he was done, there were people in the crowd "booing" & others screaming "you suck"

Holden comes on to cheers from the crowd & then proceeded to suck balls, only incrementally better than Lavelle

speaking of Lavelle... i just heard his GU39 (or whatevr # it is) Mini-Mix hoping that he's made some progress since then, it was almost as bad as what i heard back in 05

I heard Claude von Stroke got booed off the decks at DC10 last summer. Everytime I've seen him its been painful but his new ep is quite good actually.

Now I remember it, there were a few disappointed voices when I saw PvD in Feb '08 in Tokyo, myself included.

Has anyone made an animated gif of that Carl Cox 'duck 'n' cover' clip?
