I'm getting so sick and tired of people who are just kids who go to parties who drop names and claim they are with every crew under the sun and bullshit that they are throwing every party thats out there. What they don't even realize is that anyone who knows their ass with both hands knows that they are full of shit. I haven't had the rare pleasure of dealing with fools like this until recently, when I am throwing a party with my partner Nick and our crew and about three other people claim they are throwing this party. I laught to myself because I know who has done all the work, come up with the lineup, booked the DJs, ran the errands, distributed the flyers, and kept things going with our investor. Its a laugh to see someone else try and take credit for our work, but I guess thats what losers with no life like to do. :rolleyes:

it takes a lot of energy to get so worked up about something so small. maybe instead of being pissed, you could feel flattered that people take such an interest in what you're doing.
just a thought.

if being a promoter wasn't made out to be a big deal in and of itself, kids probably wouldn't do that..

Hehehe...I'm kinda amused by people like that too.

"Maaaan, I'm so tight with all the boiz at FX. I smoke weed with them all the time!"

"Yeah man, I'm with Pi Productions."
"....So?"
"Well...I'm with Pi Productions!!!"

I mean, I've helped my fair share of both large and small scale promoters, but I don't go around bragging about it.
Oh well...I guess some people define themselves by what production company they helped pass out fliers for.
It's kinda sad, but at least they find happiness in it.

It's not that big of a deal at all, people just assign some level of coolness to it and its the people who dont do it that make that stigma and create the undesirable image for people who are simply helping investors with their money and doing all the detail oriented work. Who needs to say who the fuck they are, as long as they are having a good time, you could be Tom, Dick or Harry as far as I'm concerned, so why go out of your way to lie and say you are something that ignorant people assign a great deal of value to. Who are you? I'm a person, I thought you were too....

i've also had someone (no joke) walk up to me and offer to help me book "rama" cuz he knows how to get in touch with him and can hook it up cheap!....

oh jeezus. that's just plain funny. lots of lame fucktards trying to act big and drop names and priviledges... they don't even know who the hell they're talking to.

you need to calm down. it's not that big of a deal, is it? who gives a rat's ass what these kids say? i will tell you semething that should make you feel better:

they won't be around for long, and if they are - they will eventually see what we've been seeing for years and years. a lot of these little fuckers will be grounded by their parents real soon, and the promoters will find new "flyer bitches," because you know that's what these twinks really are.

but you're still the same, now aren't you?

besides - i thought that groovin kim started raves back in 1996? wait- no, she introduced the seattle area to raves in 1996. i learned that from a high school newspaper.

Here's my theory why kids want to be associated with or be promoters:

In the stratification system in mainstream raves today, being a promoter is associated with higher status. People strive for this status and may want to reach to the top, and they figure the label "promoter" will get them, or help get them there.

This is not necessarily a bad thing in and of itself, but a lot of people wanting to become or becoming a promoter can be selfish and are insensitive to what other people want.

Word to Play it Loud...With all the big talk most people have, it's seldom that we actually see big results...or the results that are there are the fruits of the humble person's work. :p
