Well, with the additional problem of it being the internet, that scene over there is composed of a lot of people who want to be celebrated for being the next best and freshest thing, all while sounding and looking exactly like their peers, which makes for loads of fun high school bickering and drama. Funny thing is that I can't even recall a time where I've actually dealt with one of these kinds of douches in person over in that area.

sucks...welcome to NYC though...

I remember back in 97 (i think...this was years ago)...spiral tribe came to the states to do some touring...and unfortunately had a good portion if not all of the gear they traveled with at the time stolen...and what really sucked is that it happened at the infamous Rave Rock , outlaw site in NYC....sacred land to us old schoolers....apparently by this crew of thugs who were eventually taken out by the feds for gang related crimes...

a lot of us (dj's, promoters, etc) were disgusted and embarrassed....

this although on a much smaller scale sucks and hopefully he has a back up hard drive which I'd imagine he does...guess its a lesson for us to remember....back yo shite up.

i remember one time when carl cox was playing in South Portugal (KADOC DISCO) and is vinyls bag was stolen in airport (this was in 1998/1999 i think)

the guy as left with nothing to play in that night big party...

A.Paul and ZE MIG L are very friendly guys and save the night , they share their bags of vinyl with Carl Cox


kadoc disco in Portugal is one of the biggest clubs in the world (its a building like a factory) , have 5 dance floors (inside and Open Air dance floors) and 15000 people screaming for techno

theres another kadoc in spain but its not so big like this one

when we had the geezer playing in belfast last year we all got out of the taxi at the afterparty and guy left his laptop in the back seat..... it was just a black taxi we waved in the street and we had no way of finding it among the hundreds of black taxis

guy was gutted ..... as ye would be..... luckily the driver was decent and when he realised he drove it back.... all he would take was enough to cover the fare it cost driving back with it....
