Title: Yogyakarta T-Bar APOLOGY from James Zabiela
Post by: jameszabiela on 18/11/06, 04:24

Hi there everyone,

I really feel terrible about the gig last night in Yogyakarta. It was one of the worst gigs I've ever had and I just want to say sorry about my attitude and running straight off after my very average set. I've never done that before... ever! I almost feel like a real rockstar now sulking and 'stomping' off. A real diva!

The Bass Amp had apparently overheated making the main sub speaker come on and off the whole time, not only did it make it hard to mix (as it was located close to the booth) but also hard to enjoy the music.

I just couldn't get into it at all and it really spoilt the experience for me and I could see it was spoiling it for a lot of the people that came to see me. Which upset me more...

But it's not really about the dodgy speaker though, normally I'd laugh my way through something like that and make the best of the situation. But I've had a lot of personal issues to contend with recently so I was already quite sad before I went to play and the person you saw DJing last night was not the smiley James Zabiela (like the night before in Jakarta :) ) That was someone very unprofessional, so I am very sorry if I spoilt anyones evening :(

I feel a bit silly about it all now but I care that people pay to come and have a good time and as much as it is all about having fun I do take my gigs and music very seriously. Too seriously!

I hope one day I can come back and make up for it, in fact I'm determined to. :)

Regards,

James

hey...this is the first time ever i heard an apology from world's fine DJs...

@james

hey it's okay james, it is always okay when it came to technical matters which is out of our capability
as i read above it's not about the mix rite?, so don't feel unprofessional, coz anytime you'll make it up
ppl here will always gladly welcome, kay james! (we always thirsty for world class DJs here)

james.. its very kind of you to write all it down.. :)
don't call your self 'Unprofessional'.. many DJ's called their self Professional, but they never felt sorry or write an apologize if their gigs went wrong or even got cancelled !!

Im one of many clubbers who's couldn't see your gigs @ jogja.. but my friend just came and told me that you did a great set @ jogja.. and I Believe That.. :)


cheers!
