Dave Clarke

Sorry if it looks like i was making accusations but two of the dj´s from Revival go to the gym i go to. They said that was what he got paid and that the owner was well not happy.

I don´t know the true story obviously but the set he played was still terrible a couple of vodkas or not.

have his sets changed much since he switched to cd's?

He plays enough to this day where it probably happens already anyway. By setting requirements and fee a bit higher, you can eliminate a lot of bullshit to deal with. At his level you almost have to. That doesn't mean I think he is worth what he regularly gets paid.

this is very true, heard something like that from some other "super star" djs when they played here. they all know there is bunch of so called promoters that do parties and raves just for the money and they can't allow every **** from some village to earn money on them..and thats ok, and I agree with the other things you wrote too..

when clarke played in Brno @ Imperium party, he wanted everyone removed from the stage except for other djs, which was kind of understandable when i saw denham playing after him and some wanker coming around him and acting like a monkey.. really hate that, i mean, promoters should take care of that..if you want some dj to rock your club, he has to have best conditions possible for it..

haha, thats awesome, "yeah Dave Clarke got 12,000 euro's... what mate? yeah i heard it down the gym"

hilarious

people hate on Clarke because its the fun thing to do these days, and like someone said no one's the full story, how do you guys know something didnt happen backstage at ILT or something happened during his set ups? ive seen Clarke play some absolute blinding sets, real "****in hell whats going on here!" kinda stuff, and ive also seen him play some real turkeys too

as i said, why not just email him instead of slagging him off? i would, and have done with other artists ive found myself dismayed with

I was mocking what germ said about his music being shite based on the fact that those were some of the best records till this day.
heysus frickin christmas :doh:

we knew what you meant Tony, ah you correct Red still bangs it to this day

Either way if people love him or hate him he gets a lot of free press either way ;)

re the clearing the stage thing, ****, id do that too and have if its going to stop you doing your thing, its a performers right to have enough space to do their job

Divas, eh?

... and whilst, admittedly, a lot of stuff about DC could be complete rumour, I know one or two stories first hand from a promoter I know who has booked him several times. I know exactly what happened, and I know exactly the amount of money involved, straight from the horses mouth, (so to speak). It's so ludicrous it's not even funny... and leads me to believe that anything's possible really. Anyway, I doubt anything I can say will diminish his earning potential... and for the amount of money he earns he can sit and take it like a man, frankly.

my doh SOS. :doh:

No worries. ;)

His last book was great, Popcorn still rocks my boat too!

the whole DC slag offs have gotten really old over teh last year or two

slagg of soemone like umek, an ignorant bast*rd and a a woeful dj ;)

i have had personal beef with clarke.


ive had personal beef with a truck load of djs, but not one of them came off the way DC did.

he has become a self important trade mark.

the man had a huge mammoth blast at me, then refused to answer any return. THAT is weak.

and any dj whop puts out a press release about their choice of make up ?
forget it.



his attitude stinks. as for Devils Advocate... worst techno album ive heard since... since...



wow :shock:
