Nothing beats the infamous "Morillo vs Kleinenberg" story here!
Morillo was booked to play a certain club in Melbourne. Sander K happened to be in town too, for a different gig.
Sander arrives at said club in his travels, asks if he can spin, FREE OF CHARGE. Of course, the club agrees, and Sander jumps on the decks.
Half an hour in, Morillo arrives for his set, which is not for another few hours (i.e Sander wasn't stealing any of his booth time).
Morillo throws a hissy fit, saying he won't play unless Sander fucks off.
Club throws Sander out and Morillo gets to play.
(If I was the manager, I would have thrown Morillo out, handed his enormous appearance fee back to the owner, got Kleinenberg to fill his spot, and congratulated myself for getting a big international jock to play for free) |
Friend of mind booked morillo to play his club in ottawa, Canada years ago. he showed up and was a total asshole primadonna.. they ended up kicking him out before his set.. made him leave through the back door! Just by coincidence Josh Wink was in town as his wife had some gallery show that weekend. Wink was there and had his records so he played for free and destroyed the club.
