shall we get in to your lies to club management and dj agents/management when you kept trying to get media access when you have absolutely no credentials? |

No lies whatsoever. That one time with my radio station tag... a stupid oversight on my part. BTW, you could have came up to me and said it could have been misunderstood as media, and I would have thrown it out. Instead you decided like a five year old to go to the club about it to get me kicked out... whether that was your intention or not. You had the power to easily inform me of my mistake, but instead you chose not to. Later on I heard that you bragged about how you almost got me kicked out to some of the staff at Guv. Pretty sad on your part.
And for the record, I never ever told/suggested that I was media or affiliated with anyone. EVER.
Just in case your not keeping track, I've check all the re-posts for the past three months. I wanted to know how bad I was unnecessarily hammering TA with my the videos.

So if you were to average it out, that would be once every two weeks. Holy that's outta control! |

the media pass thing was an oversight? i had someone approach me in koolhaus saying that you went up to them saying "omg i cant believe the bouncers are letting me on stage to video because of my media pass" or something along those lines. dont remember the exact thing because it was so long ago. as for security throwing you out, that was not my call. that was a decision made by someone else. all i did was make the club aware of the situation since they are my employer so i did the right thing. what they decided to do is out of my hands.
no lies? i dont know what you said to certain staff at guv for them to think that you worked for the club. ive had quite a few people ask me if the bald guy with the video camera worked for guv because they said you talked to them like you worked there or something like that.
also, when the club denied you access numerous times for media access you decided to go behind their back and talk to dj management/agent.
as for your video reposting, those dates were all the opportunities that you've had since the beginning of the year so you're on a 100% record right now. you seized every opportunity. |

| Putting aside the murky and cut-throat world of clubbing photography that you pair inhabit, just like the original poster, I have never been to Basement before, and benefited from getting a feel for the place from the video, so I couldn't give two s if the guy who made the video derived some promotional benefit. It would be a totally different story if no-one felt that the video in any way helped to enlighten them about the club. |

That is strange since they asked me to leave the club at the beginning of the night. I couldn't have been there no more than half an hour in the main room at most when that happened. What's funny is that I had two of those tags but forgot one at home. My buddy and I argued in the parking lot about who was going to wear it, since both of us wanted to show off the radio station at the time. It was a split decision to not bother and just leave it in the car. Like I said, it was a stupid mistake to wear it at all and getting crucified for the wrong reasons too.

I don't know where you got that because I've never told anyone that I worked for anyone. As a matter of fact I even have disclaimers in several places stating...
"GrooveENERGY enjoys immortalizing club events in the Toronto area via HD video. It must pointed out that we are not, in any way, form, or fashion, associated with any club establishment. We video these events for the love of the music, it's entertainers and patrons. GrooveENERGY also would like to thank the individual artists for their contributions to these videos."
I've been asked several times if I was either media or worked for a club. I've answered the same every single time. No... it's only my hobby.

Incorrect again. For one, I don't bother asking anyone at Guv as the five to six times in three years I've tried no one ever bothered to return my emails. I always approach the local agent for permission. It's funny but even before when I just started videoing with my old camera, I offered on three occasions to reprogram Guv's forum to rid it of the porn spam attacks they were being hammered with. I said I'd do it without charge as I wanted to contribute since I enjoyed the club so much. Then too they NEVER replied once. Instead they later locked it to future posts essentially shutting it down. I just can't figure them out is the main point. |
