While I agree with most of you that he should have taken the time out to sign the autographs and take some pictures, (If it were me I know I would), he could have been late to catch a plane or something and it was 4:30 in the morning.
I know if I worked till 4:30 in the morning, some days I might be a little crabby, and not want to say goodbye to every single person. Cut the guy some slack. I know there are some exceptions with some DJ's like PVD as you guys have stated, but it doesn't make him a bad person.

Just my 2 cents. Peace

yes twilog is right. pvd ain't arrogant but oakie is. he doesn't seem to realize that his 'fans' are totally dedicated to the music that he spins (which is slowly going downhill now too cause of his attitude). me thinks the monkey's getting tired of his job or something cause he's not passionate about it at all. it looks more like he treats his djing as a JOB. like i said earlier on...sad to see a popular dj go down like dat....

any music artist would agree...that their fans are the most important aspect that makes them successful...mistreating dem like that ain't cool....tired or not...and when you do it over and over....you'll lose your fans as quickly as you got them.

exactly. If it weren't for his fans, he wouldn't be who he is or where he is today. What he did was totally disrespectful! He's been in the game for over a decade...he's obviously tired of it. The novelty of being a superstar wore off. He should be flattered not annoyed.

Starfox, I'M SOOO FRIGGIN JEALOUS U MET PVD!!! I WANT DETAILS!

Thumbs down oakey

He once was cool...now has a big rod up his ass
called stardom. This rod can affect some positively, but
not in Oakey's case.

i met PVD couple years ago ..through my uncle that knows him.....and recentlyi wanted to know a song he played in a set...and the sets playlist was no where to found including his own site.....so i got a hold of his personal Email..during a time where he was on vacation and had studio work ...and he took time and send me the title of the song ..personaly...and we exchanged emails a couple times.. and hes a real down to earth guy ... if he was arrogant he wouldnt even taken the time to email me!.... and recently i heard a interview with Paul Oakenfold..and he seemed to be like a really cool guy as well i didnt really get the feeling he was arrogant..but i dont know him personaly so i have no clue! .....and by the way...the interview with PVD where he talks about his bunny rabbit....i have just the little clip of it..does anyone have the full interview on the computer????

Question Aren't we quick to judge

Hmmm .... Well maybe we are being too harsh on Oakie here... Even cool people get tired and irritated.. Its not like we know what its like to be famous, it must get difficult sometimes being in the public eye so much, and of course having a hectic schedule like he does... Can you imagine how often he gets asked for autographs, pictures, etc...

For all we know he got into an argument right before he walked out. We'll never know, but for that one moment you all think he's rude, doesn't appreciate his fans, etc.. That seems a little unfair, he's human and he will have his good days and bad.... I'm sure he loves the music, I'm sure he loves the money (who wouldn't!).. But for us to be so harsh as to say he ONLY does it for money is pretty damn harsh.. Especially when none of us know him and are basing our opninions on random acts, and media... I say give him the benefit of the doubt... thats all..

I've never met him, so I'll hold my judgement until he storms past me and refuses to sign an autograph

yeahhh i agree with you on all of that thor. but the one thing that sways me to kinda lose respectz for the monkey is from a previous thread a few weeks back when i was still in a TA in training...a lot of TAs recounted their personal experiences with him and well...he sounds like a total jackass. lol. but yeah i can understand how fame can get to one's head and such...but no artist i know has ever neglected their fans the way he's done (and not just this thread too)...he's done it countless times. okay...i've done too many rants today...

peace be with ya
