Lawler forced to play records against his will!



Taken from Steve Lawlers site - http://www.djstevelawler.com/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=1333



OK i'll let you know what went on.

i had played for 2 hours, and things were going fine, and then the owner of the club wanted me to play a 15 min, techno trance record called dance with the devil, which was about 160 bpm!!! so of course i refused to. I knew nothing about this performance and i wasnt about to break up what i had built musically.. so they told me to play the record or get off, so i came off, then when myself, my girlfriend and my agent went to leave the club, they freatened us with 10 bouncers, we were going to get the shit beaten out of us, so they forced us back into the club, litterally thisically forced us, i went back in and was made to play 1 more hour surrounded by bouncers etc..

i have to tell you, in all my career i have never ever had anything like this happen before, i was very worried for my girlfriend and had to do as they said.

i will never again come to gaudalaja, im sorry for those of you that live there, i will how ever be doing shows in other parts of mexico, but i will never step foot into that city again. sorry.

this was a very scary incident that i never want to be in again..

that club can go and fuck themselves, and i advise no one to play there, it was completely un real what happened.. words do not describe how concerned i was that evening..

the show in mexico city was great i ended up playing for just over 4 hours to a great crowd. so i will definately be back there again some time in the near future..

i hope this clears all rumours..

Steve

scary shit.

fucks sake

lol... that track is a conshit favorite...

total harsh as fuck!

what a fucking idiot i would have played it its mexico what he expext no im kidding for fucks sake thats stupid a dj should never have to go throw that

That sounds dodgy as fook, he's lucky he didn't get shot or something. I'd bet the clubbing scence in mexico is run by drug barons.

never read about anything like that in me life.

poor bloke.

Re: Lawler forced to play records against his will!

it's not the first time Mr Lawler has had a close call, I have heard a few stories.

i suppose those types of 'criminals' couldn't give a monkeys if he's some 'superstar DJ' - it means fuck all to them.

it's bad crack like, i'd have been so scared for my girlfriend - but he shouldn't have expected to get treated any differently because of who he is...

Aww i know! Bless him

yeah you right but he should have been treated like a human being and not a piece of shit on there shoes.

i can only imagine some mexican drug barron still wouldn't have given a monkeys and treats all people like that

suppose your right, fucking losers

Re: Lawler forced to play records against his will!

Can't really add anything to this except to say that Steve really needs to improve his spelling

bad crack that like

Jesus christ

That's scray shit

Im sorry but I just wouldn't go to Mexico and not expect some sort of shit or intimidation... where's he gonna go next?

Seriously though I'm glad everyone got out unscathed

Shocking stuff, playing records at 160 BPM... really there's no need.
