2 Becka - Of course it's not ok to act like this if it's true. Jees, I pride myself on being as down to earth as I can (within this whole madness that is long flights, too much time in the car and the rest of the crap that human nature tells you you must complain about hahahha). No this is definitely not good if this is true.

But my point is, there's always too sides. You think the other side will come out. Well I hope so but more often than not on message boards, the other side doesn't.

Really hope it does though in this case ;)

hello everyone! i am pretty much back now for those who knew i was gone...

...as for this thread...how many of you slagging miss kitten so authoritatively have actually met or spent time with her? i spent a few evenings with her and oliver (a good friend of mine is close to them) several years ago and found her to be a very nice person. maybe it`s a different situation, so a different side of her comes out...i was not there so i don`t know...but based on my personal experience, i can`t just believe that because someone wrote it on the web. maybe some of the details in here were not quite how they are portrayed... I think i would like to hear her side of the story before condemning her or blindly taking the side of internet rumor-mongerers.

damn and i thought leibing and bailey had a lot of collabs

**francois** · 18-09-2005, 07:08 PM

yes the internet can be a rumour mongering machine, but in all fairness to the promoters, they have put on lots of gigs with top artists, why should they lie or exaggetate about what occurred? There is nothing in it for them to gain by explaining what they saw as a screw up-. if you are an artist, big or small, you should be happy to do what you do as an artist, ok yu may be pissed off and fed up but as a performer the onus is on you to perform.
I had the same shit with robert hood, who refused to play on a whim.ourselves and club 69 booked him to play and he didnt even bother to get on the bloody plane, jeez at the end of the day you're only playing other people's records, not changing the world

I'd say this is true. I used to live in Derry and went to a lot of the deep fried funk/celtronic gigs and have met the guys who run the nights etc. Very doubtful they'd be making this up. Although to be fair, we have not heard the other side of the story so I suppose we should hold back on the judgement call. Thing is I went to see her in Dublin which must been a few days near the Derry gig and the venue there is pretty much an exact copy of the nerve centre in Derry, i.e a rock venue used also for club nights.
Kinda hope its not true tho. I lenjoyed the Dublin gig nevertheless. I rate her as a DJ no matter how uncool it is too that on this forum ;)

I have the flyer for this gig somewhere(blue/silver with aliens face?). Was kicking myself for not going. Didn't know he didnt show so i suppose I missed nothing lol

**SlavikSvensk** · 19-09-2005, 05:34 AM

it has nothing to do with making something up. but it does have to do with perception and portrayal. every story has at least two sides.

Agreed. But the perception and portrayal dont come across to good in this case do they..?

**new** · 19-09-2005, 01:41 PM

you're right, every story does have two sides. I mean, you can't really complain about someone not being nice to you. She was really just hired to play records not be nice/mean.

The only thing that gets me is that she cut her set short. I mean, what's the deal with that? Not cool at all. If I ever get to the point that I am so bored/unenjoying djing that I don't want to play records, I'll just quit. Or at least take a break.

I think I'd certainly make it to the end of my set before I did so, too.

**MARKEG** · 19-09-2005, 05:50 PM

have you woken up on the wrong side of bed today matey?? :lol: :lol:

**JamieBall** · 19-09-2005, 06:08 PM

Nah, man, to be honest I'm just saying it how I knows it to be.

There's two sides to every story, fair enough, but I fear both parts of this one read the same.

Am I wrong ?

To your point, though..... I HAVE had a LOT of 'bad days' when I used to have my bed in the centre of the room, it's now next to the wall - so getting out the wrong side is impossible

However, as you can probably tell, it's not made too much difference

- Now I just don't know whether or not I'd have got out on the wrong side on any particular day.

I also recently changed from a King Divan to a futon style thing. Which blows. Big time.

As with most things in my life, my sleeping arrangements are a work in progress.

Yeah, I know. It's like the first scene off of the untouchables. ;)

**JamieBall** · 19-09-2005, 08:38 PM

I've got a nice picture of a great handbag with a sweet 'J' embossed on it, black fluff trim. MMMMM. Sadly I'm unable to work the image insert thing, or it won't let me link. BAH.
