Some messed up stuff.
...

OK i'll let you know what went on.

i had played for 2 hours, and things were going fine, and then the owner of the club wanted me to play a 15 min, techno trance record called dance with the devil, which was about 160 bpm!!! so of course i refused to. I knew nothing about this performance and i wasnt about to break up what i had built musically.. so they told me to play the record or get off, so i came off, then when myself, my girlfriend and my agent went to leave the club, they freatened us with 10 bouncers, we were going to get the beaten out of us, so they forced us back into the club, litterally thisically forced us, i went back in and was made to play 1 more hour surrounded by bouncers etc..

i have to tell you, in all my career i have never ever had anything like this happen before, i was very worried for my girlfriend and had to do as they said.

i will never again come to gaudalaja, im sorry for those of you that live there, i will how ever be doing shows in other parts of mexico, but i will never step foot into that city again. sorry.

this was a very scary incident that i never want to be in again..

that club can go and themselves, and i advise no one to play there, it was completely un real what happened.. words do not describe how concerned i was that evening..

the show in mexico city was great i ended up playing for just over 4 hours to a great crowd. so i will definately be back there again some time in the near future..

i hope this clears all rumours..

Steve

:eyes: i never heard of such a thing, physically threatening an international dj!!! :eyes: geez. couldn't the owner tell his local guy to play that song if it was so important to him? you don't book an international dj and tell the what to play, thats the whole point in even having an international dj come in, becuase if they sound exactly like the resident, then whats the point? thats retarded, mexico is scary.

Like that club owner gave 2 s about who the DJ was... they're freakin' mexicans, what'd you expect?!
