that's nothing. last night I was DJing a house party and after two songs (Jim Rivers - I Go Deep and Ferrer - Love Can Damage Your Health) they tell me to play more "housey" stuff, more commercial I guess.
And I couldnt go 5 minutes without some ing dumb girl asking me to play rap or soulja boy
:wtf:
seriously though, why are you idiot promoters thinking you are above DJs like JZ? isn't he basically a legend? |
Same thing happend to me, I djed at a house party and people would literally come up every 2 mins asking me to play something different. I start playing hip-hop, a group of people come up asking to switch to house, i start house and another group comes asking for raggea... also people kept touching the platter so i couldnt mix... after about 20 min i said i had enough and threw my headphones down... will NEVER dj at house parties again, unless im locked up ina cage with the cdjs. |

I believe he made a blog about that but I am sure you can find a thread on that.
Menno name dropped just about every other sentence. "omgwtfbbq i hung out with so-and-so and then ate with so-and-so".. etc..
edit = here is the thread in NYTA

Menno de Jong came here a few times w/o one...then one time got stopped in Detroit while on his way to LA (to play at an afterparty for US. Armin and ATB played at the main party). Turns out he didn't have a work Visa (I don't think he realized he needed one) and was forced to turn around and go right back home. Don't think he's been back in the US since and this was last July I believe. Dunno what's the status on getting him a work visa. |
ow well i think he knew he needed a visa.
What a lot of european djs do when they play in the usa they enter the country on a simple tourist visa. Then they don't go through all the hassle and also the working permit cost a lot of money.
On his blog dutch DJ joost van bellen said when he goes to the usa he cleares all his usa dates on his website and myspace in case customs googles him.
Well Menno just took the risk but he got caught. |

I hope you're talking about Danny T 'cuz all Zabiela did was write a little paragraph on it. I think the one getting a little dramatic here is you.. |

Funny how this applies to the USA as well. No intention to offend, I just find it ironic. :p
Only difference is that since it's such a big ing country, you eventually find nice, friendly people. |

| Haha that Menno pic is funny. Now reading the story I get why he was giving this girl the finger. At first I thought it was just a picture of some random girl dumfounded Menno wouldn't accept her request for some DJ Sammy... |

heres an example: i asked someone sitting on a park bench if he could take my picture in front of this monument statue/town square thing, and he said "no! i no do this!" waving his hand at me shooing me away.
