you show me the transcript, voice recording, statement, press release, email, fax, carrier pidgeon or scroll that reads "deadmau5, or his management, requires that no performer use ableton live before / after him"
and i will show you a delusional world alright. |
i think nachos was referring to the groundhog day-like quality of every mau5 thread.
once a month:
-- someone claims diva behavior on your part on an internet forum
-- the masses join the thread, torches, pitchforks, and mousetraps in hand
-- denials are issued; smudged transcription/nebulous emails/or spectral managers are pegged as the culprit
-- mau5 appears in thread with snarky commentary and/or partial rebuttal of original claim
-- truth lies in the middle
keep handlin' yo' biz homey. |

well, my policy has always been... the more haters you have, the better you are doing.
i mean come on. if people take time out of their day just to hate on someone. i mean. its like they are putting their own time into someone who they claim isnt worth their time. i love haters. love having haters. love being hated on. means im doing something right. |

This story absolutely stinks like BS.
Funny how everyone is so quick to paint deadmau5 a certain way. |
It's because he's a douchebag and there is likely a strong degree of truth to what this guy is saying based on cheese dick's track record.
Sadly, it's a matter of most people being able to say "I could see him doing something like that" when a story like this comes up instead of "no way! That doesn't sound like the guy I know". |

His track record? Or the track record of BS threads on the Internet?
Well, here is someone saying "No way! that doesn't sound like the guy I know."
We've played with the mau5 twice and the dude is nothing but supportive. I have no reason to believe why he wouldn't be that way for everyone he plays with. |

Talking about the mouse. Then you must have caught him on a good day. |

Here us how it SHOULD have gone down...
- The kid gets to use whatever equipment as long as it doesn't cause too much trouble transitioning to the headliner. (e.g., he can't bring it 5 mixers, 3 laptops, 3 of his own CDJ's, etc).
- The kid SHOULD play an opening set. He won to be an opener. So play a ing opening set. IF he comes out with bangers at 10pm for a 10pm-4am party, well...he probably will never get booked again. So...again, his choice to bang it out, but don't expect to get booked in the future.
- Re: Deadmau5, there is likely some half-truths to the whole story. Maybe the contest winner is that good? Maybe Joel got a little nervous. Maybe his agents got nervous. Who knows. There are definite half truths in every gossip story. And, its happened enough times under similar themes of diva-like behavior that there must be some truth to it.
- Lastly, just because Joel is some whining diva who likes to be the center of all drama doesn't mean his music sucks. Half this thread is ripping on his music. I for one think his music smells more like than the load I dropped last night, but...his sound does appeal to a large commercial crowd. So more power to him. He aint no Digweed. He won't be around much longer so let him cash in however he wants. |

Well, I don't really see anyone else coming to his defence. I'm just saying.... |

Who cares? It's obvious none of the people here have any prior personal experience of actually dealing or interacting with him :gsmile: |
