yeah what the fuck is up with you host one for judging my priorities? i don't want to go to your whatever party anyways so i don't know, have fun with your friends while getting paid for your 'talent'. it's a whole other lifestyle man, i just don't feel concerned for that. the only party i have organized is earthdance and it was free, and whoever dj feels the cause is right comes and plays. even if they are just beginners and stuff, if they want to play fucking go ahead! it's all in friendly fun anyways.

putting up deco... it's not as if i was just 'putting it up' like you buy christmas stuff at the dollarama. when i talk about a good deco job i'm actually conceptualizing, creating, installing... it takes a lot of time working in my room (two to three months preparation for a new deco), and one or two days before the party running around with ladders and stuff to install it, it is a full-time job in itself that doesn't get paid, i just think it's fun to do and i have the imagination for it so i do it that's all. so you and your 'hippie-slackers' words can go fuck yourself, because this is work too.

and your other remark about how it's about me floating around at parties... we're all here to party anyways right? so if you can bring something to the party and make the scene grow and make people happy that's great. but i'm not gonna pay 40$ to go to a party just because the djs think they deserve it, i'm gonna organize a party with my friends and we'll be the ones playing music even though it's not perfect, we'll have fun. i have a life too fuck, i can't afford to pay for your 'talent'. so... maybe you'd better make rich friends? lol.

seriously though, le d said it right. contract makes the whole thing clear from the start, and i know most people tend to respect their engagements... otherwise they're going down... :p
I'm feeling love right now..

I wasnt talking about you in specifics, im talking about philosophising deadheads that know nothing about working hard every day...and the anti semetic part is disgusting and I will expect a boycott of these parties to happen very soon.

I'm out.

there's nothing that compares to electronik high seriously. and i know how you guys can do a good job at destroying a party like this, but isn't there an alternate solution?

it's like... the vibe of it... the friends... the cake... the good times...
you're kind-of destroying the very thing that gives you the ability to actually BE a dj... the parties...

I thought the anti-semetic shit was some kind of inside joke related to the jew-bee-lee thing at saphs the thursday before... could be wrong though

Ok kids here's the deal:

Before you commit and play a party enquire about how much you will get and reach a verbal or written agreement.

If the promoter tells you you won't be getting paid, then you won't be getting paid

If the promoter tells you will get paid "x" amount of dollars, then thats what you get paid
It dosen't matter if the party's empty, the promoter pays, even if it comes out of his/her pocket the next week.

And none of this "oh do it for the love and shut up shit".

I can garantee you that line won't fly with me. I'll come knocking on your door until you pay up and believe me no promoter has ever stiffed the Bliss

Now in this situation, since the promoters and the djs seem to have agreed that the deal was no one was getting paid...then no one gets paid and everyone shuts up.

Bind was wrong to make that request and especially ask for $500.00 (dude we booked Krafty Kuts for $400.00 a few years ago, lets be reasonable now). I've been playing breaks in the 514 for much longer than any of you cats and I still wouldn't dream of asking for that much.

I honestly usually play the breaks nights in Montreal for my cab fare cause I want to support the music and encourage new nights and I know that most of these nights don't make a lot of money.

However on the flipside the promoters were wrong to bring it up publicly, especially if the djs DID END UP playing for free, its kind of ungrateful to diss them after.

And the Jewish commment was just plain wrong (I personally wouldn't want to play any of your events after reading that, especially for free, and I've not even Jewish lol!)

Lastly, its not the job of the dj to bring the people, but the promoter...

The dj's job is too reasearch and present the music, the promoters job to bring the people.

No people = Bad promoter

whats with the hating on bind shit... hes a great dj, which is more then i can say about alot of the so called djs in this city. i know i wasnt at this party but bashing him like this is so uncalled for.

how does it suck to expect to get paid.... bliss is right cut the crap already. YOU ALL WOULD HAVE LOVED TO GET CASH IN YOUR POCKETS!

its not up to bind , to fill up the fucking venue.

maybe if pormotion would hvae been done, THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN 500$ worth of people as you say.

shit.

Yeah, I dunno about you, but I've chilled with Bind a few times before, and I really don't think he'd be one to unresonably request that much money. I think that the 500$ figgure that was thrown out was inflated just a little much to gather sympathy for not paying his DJ.

And if you read the original post (cutting out the bit about his "requesting 500$" because, as I said, I am 99.9% certain that that's absolute BULLSHIT):

i told him sorry and that i would give him his measly 30$ during the week. first of all your nobody, second of all i told you i'd get you during the week, i didn't feel like going to the bank for you...


If you're gonna have DJs play at your event, you pay them at your event, BEFORE they go up and play, and the only exception I can see to that being that if it's like your best friend throwing the party and you know for 100% certain that you're going to get your cash by the end of the night or the next day. If you aren't on extremely close terms with the DJ playing at your party, you should consider yourself LUCKY if the DJ will play without at the very least half his cash in his hand before his set.
I'm feeling craptacular right now..

About my comment I wasn't sure who Bind was, but if he was playing with Mc Special S I have to say that his set was pretty good.

But anywas based from what I know... indigoanja made it clear at the begining that there was a good chance nobody would be getting paid. Secondly I know this was alot more of a personal party and that FREE space cake was given out to everybody. I alone ate about 50$ worth of fucking space cake. Secondly the dj's did get one bear. Based on that I think that the dj's, all being locals, got a pretty good deal out of this, and I think that all you dj's out there will agree that this is a little more then fair.

500$.... that's pretty fucking retarded. I'm not sure whether it's true or not... but if it is, that is a ridiculous sum of money to be asking for. Regardless of how many vinyls you baught, your still only doing 1 hour of work. My boss doesn't pay me the time it takes me to get to work, he pays me for the work I do.

And sorry bind... your set was nothing even relatively close to special. I actually left cuz if I'm right cosmic orgasm blew the bass bin, then I walked into the breaks room and got bored in like 15 minutes.

Actually I had fun in the break room when mc special S was on, that shit was pretty hype.


HAHAHA
First you say Binds set was nothing special, then in the same breath you say you had fun when the MC (Evader MC btw) was on.
Ummm hello Evader is Binds MC, and Bind is a breakz dj!
When those two started there were 2 ppl in the room. When I left (during Binds set)) the breaks room was packed!

And I know Bind, if he said "we usually get $500 for this, it was total sarcasm, based on the fact he wasn't getting the "measly $30" that was promised him.

nah well thats what im saying this for, bind is a great guy and in my opinion has every right( considering he did play and always plays a good set) in general to ask to get paid just as everyone does.

i dont know, i dont want to get involved at all, i just think it sucks that all this shit is being talked about him, when im sure thats the last thing that should be happening

next time dont fucking promise shit to people and this wont happen.

but honestly sttuuuunnnaaa is right :) its christmas:)

*hugs!*
