Hear, Hear! On the same subject, Rolando was due to play Bugged Out in Liverpool not too long ago, a club which is now co-run by CREAM (cheese). The night went ahead as planned with everything running smooth, that was until you had paid and entered the club. No sooner had I handed over the inflated door tax and I was flanked by numerous notices saying how Rolando had considerably upped his fee and they had refused to go with it. They had not bothered to find a replacement (or substitute) when most other clubs can do it within a few hours.
Let me see. Cream holds about 4000ish I think, and is definitely not short of a few quid so i don't really buy their excuse. Bearing in mind that I know that Voodoo were due to get Roland but pulled out way in advance as they knew of his demands. It is easy to slate the unanswerable DJ's from afar. I am not saying this case isn't true but simply that I agree wholeheartedly with F K Ranx as on several occasions I have seen the punters undeniably getting the wool pulled over their eyes. There is always 3, maybe more sides to every story. Incidentally, any news yet on the appearances of UR and Moodyman at the Transit's NY Eve gig? Is it on?
