Did you read Marcus statement?
If DM5 really cared he wouldn't have messaged him with "are you closing for me in Norway" and his management obviously saw the Flyer.. I can assure you they had more then a few days to cancel him instead of making it "a big deal" the night of the show.
Giving an ultimatum after all this time has passed is a bit ridiculous.
Judge Jules was the one that said it.. Forum members make up 90% of the noise but 10% of the crowd. Just because we know there's beef doesn't mean the poor promoter knew about it.
DM5 needs to do what he was paid to do.. Unless it clearly says it in his contracts that he can not be booked along with Marcus then he should just stop his whiny prima donna bichfests.
It's just a simple joke and everyone knew it was a joke. I posted my example of previous jokes done by member of this forum. He clearly wasn't the first to be mocked and sure as hell won't be the last. |
Deadmau5 was the headliner, he can make all the demands he wants...legally his demands shouldn't have held any water, and the promoter should have just stuck to his guns and not kicked Marcus off the night.
the convo Marcus posted in his myspace blog mentions that Deadmau5 IMed him asking what the deal was...he doesnt' post the whole convo. For all we know, they never established that they were in fact playing on the same night.
about the whole thing being a joke...idk...I can clearly see why Deadmau5 wouldn't want to be on the same bill as the guy. In Marcus' blog, he says the Deadrat6 thing was purely a joke on all the Deadmau5 "copy catters." That seems like a bit of BS on his part.
Deadmau5 may be a dick head for all we know, but not many of us know him personally enough to make that call. Marcus Schossow (sp?) seems like a cool dude, and funny guy. Unfortnately in this case, he poked some fun at a dj / producer who is bigger than he is, and one that apparently has the power to call shots like he did. I'm not saying I think what Deadmau5 did was right, but obviously Deadmau5's happiness on that night was considerably more important to the promoters than their desire to have Marcus dj on the night. The promoters are the ones at fault IMO, and I hope to hell they paid Marcus his full fee that night, along with giving him a serious apology for wasting his time. |

He posts pictures of himself covered in cocaine on Tranceaddict and brags about PCP binges with Tommy Lee. That alone would get any other TA banned. I think it's safe to say that the guy is "definitely" a dick head..
I gotta admit though that the guy is a ing talent and I'm a fan of his work..I never was though until all this happened. I buy a lot of stuff on beatport and 50% of the tracks I end up buying are deadmau5 remixes and it's unintentional. I have a Deadmau5 track on my myspace profile atm..
Marcello,,Please put this to bed before it comes back and bites you..I'm saying that as a friend who cares about you..
From a promoters point of view I would have told the mau5 to off and bought the club a drink with his fee or put on a free party the following week for the pissed off people.. |

1) Basically, that was a really move. You're not going to get the image of a badass by saying you're following orders, then saying you don't want to play because you got offended, then saying you actually don't give a . So there's the bad boy of the scene image out the window.
2) No promoter wants to book a moody pillock with an oversized ego who's acting worse than a teenager on her period. Nobody wants to deal with this because there's no saying when another bunch of clubgoers will be disappointed because you decided to be a little mermaid with a sandy vagina. Bad for business.
3) Your sense of humour is ing horrible. (was that "bring me socks" thing supposed to be funny? )
4) Get over yourself.
5) Good luck getting gigs once your 8th note wears off amongst the average club punters (and it will)
6) off.
7) I bought Faxing Berlin, and I hope you put that money and all the rest you've gotten into a few sessions with a psychiatrist. You certainly do need it.
edit: oops, forgot. 8 ) If I was your manager I'd punch you in the face for being a ing idiot. If your manager hasn't punched you already, I suggest you fire him and do him a favour, because being your manager is a terrible career move in the long run.

I see what you are saying. Def. The promoters are the ones who booked them and paid for them to come out and do what they are supposed to do.
But, I don't know what dj gets booked and doesn't know who else is on the bill. This mess could have been avoided if he 1. just delt with it. Play some fuking tunes and be on your way.. and 2. His management could have told the promoters from the very beginning that he won't play with Marcus! Even if it was after the flyers were printed.. Give some time to maybe book someone DM5 gets along with and give notice to the clubgoers that Marcus is cancelled.
happens. It's just the reason why Marcus got booted off that is just plain stupid.
LOL @ Buraks quote from T.Nu!:stongue:
I also find it funny that Tyler from TOTA said the DM5 should start banning forum members from attending his parties.:lol: |

Yeah, that didnt come out right at all, as I shouldnt have posted after a long night of drinking and striking out at Mansion... but anyways what I think I was trying to say was that if I had the power as a DJ, I would be a diva and ban other DJs from my parties if I didnt like them. |

Haha I dont...
Yeah, wasnt bad, DJ was pretty much commercial cheese (Robin S, Thriller, and some Pjanoo) but the place was pretty good (mad expensive though). It was a total bottle crowd though, and barely anyone was dancing because it wasnt hiphop mashups with 80s. Makes you miss the old Crobar... and also there wasnt much room to operate if you werent in the VIP. You are going to Max Graham? Curious to see how that one turns out... |
