[Dynagroove] ira...Freaks show...

[Lucas Dodson]

I have defineatly been there and I think old Jonra has been there too when
your event got busted at that orange studios, I think your party got busted
at what was it 12 am or was it 11:30pm I don't remember,  I didn't see you
trying to give anybody their money back!

Back in 99 I  got to my location for one of my parties and there was a show
goin on there after I had already given 2500 dollars to the location owner
to hold the venue, yeah it sucked!!!  I have now recovered, defineatly have
never made my money back, even got ripped off by some dj 's too, but please,
that's somethin you know when you put your money on the line.

yeah Ira tried to secure a new venue but sometimes that doesn't work.

I hope that we all understand a little more about what it takes to do an
event and with finding locations and getting sound set-up and all  that
junk. Man if it's anything, it's work people.
