Just curious to know if you still support your favorite DJ after you met him and he was rude to you. We overheard someone talking about a DJ and how rude they were and it was a DJ we admire so it was a bit disappointing, nevertheless we don't believe everything we hear and if it didn't happen directly to us then it has no effect of our liking or disliking of a DJ.
I will tell you that on one occasion we met this pretty big DJ and he appeared to be a total dick, very rude wouldn't even sign our napkin. Then as the circumstances would have it we ended up chatting with him after the show and he actually was very nice and humble, completely different then he projected to be. DJs, it would seem have two personas, one when they are DJing and one when they are not, however I do feel that if someone is an arrogant and cocky person it will project onto there DJ persona. Also it can be a very chaotic enviornment and with not a lot of sleep that can bring out the worst in anyone. |

Hm, that reminds me of an old episode of "Boy Meets World" when Cory is obsessed over some rockstar with big hair, and he meets him in real life, and the dude kicks him out of his room to make out with a chick.
He ends up tearing down all of the posters in his room and hates the singer. Then the credits roll by.
Hope that helps! |

Thats a toughy. What you have to realize is that when a DJ is in his zone he's sorta on a power trip. Add that power trip with alcohol and drugs and then you are probably the last worry on his mind.
Some DJ's are just nicer than others. Some appreciate their fans more than others. Some probably just want to do their job and get out! (Especially when its dead or there is barely any energy from the crowd.)
Just try not to take it too personally. DJ's and artist need to worry about their safety. Anything can happen when they are encountering fans who may have had too much to drink, swallow or snort. |

I don't think their personality factors in too much. Sure if they're a jerk it would be hard for me to appreciate them, but if he/she is throwing down great music then I don't think it really matters.
Like Mikey said, they have to deal with a lot of people on a nightly basis they can't be nice to everyone all the time. Maybe they had a crappy flight, or not enough sleep, or they're jet lagged, or hungover not hungover enough :p
Getting treated badly one the first meeting shouldn't really affect how you think about them permanently. |

i think the whole package of a Dj makes a big difference. Not only is JOOF a great DJ (one of my favs) but is prob the coolest one i have met that is on the global circuit.
other guys that are just jerks make it hard to ever want to go and support them. Like a guy named roger sanchez. Im sure he is great live, but since he is such an ass, i would never go to one of his shows. |

| It would definitely be hard for me to support a rude DJ. Sure, I could still appreciate his music, but I highly doubt I would pay money to see/support that DJ live. Downloading (for free) might be a different story though :D |

I know DJs who will be nice one time you meet them, and a bit rude the next. It really does just depend on their mood.
Remember, they are human in the end and everyone is moody. Everyone has their good times and bad times. And there could be man reasons why they are in the mood they are in.
Just because they were rude to you the one time you met them isn't enough to judge them, IMO. Some DJs are all over the place. You ask 1/2 of the peopel who meet him and they say he was nice. The other half will say he was just an ass.
Now if I meet a DJ a bunch of times and he's rude everytime, that's telling me something.
