Thank you CTM. This is what I wanted to hear.

Hi everyone,

This is CTM and we represent Showtek in Canada, and in parts of the United States.

We did not book Showtek at this past event, but we do have one of our other artists "YOJI" booked in July with Massive Intent.

After many emails and phone calls, we have still yet to receive any money from this promoter, and we urge all fans to stop buying tickets until we, along with many of the others artists at the event on July 24th are paid in full.

The practice of advertising artists and selling tickets for an event before anyone is paid MUST STOP here.

We have spoken with Showtek's management, and completely support their decision in this matter, as we are experiencing the same problems as we speak.

Please show your support for the artists and do not purchase tickets for the event on July 24th at Apache Pass, and we will keep you updated as things develop.

Regards.

CTM

Look, we could sit here playing he said- he said BS all day. But what we really need to do is be PLUR, be the family of ravers that we are, and NOT let our scene be ripped in half by Massive vs Non Mssive cliques. I mean WTF Texas!!! Just be free, just be nice, just live. And do it for the music. Iknow first hand EVERYTHING that happened. Am I spreading more rumors. No, I am merely moving on, looking forward to more events, and loving everyone, and everything. Look people " When a revolution is begun. It either does not stop, or stops, and fails." We are letting ours stop because of all the drama. So, I say to all of you. Move on, love, and be excited, and hopeful for the future. Showtek, you guys are AMAZING, and I hope we can bring you back to Texas succesfuly. Love,
Enlightened One 43

"Attacking Jimmy and his "personal" life. Nothing to do with Massive Intent at all."

Are you serious? I'm not attacking him personally, I'm questioning his ethics as a promoter, I.e. Massive Intent.

Again, the amount of censorship on the Showtek post, mixed with the fact that he deleted his facebook, are the reason I'm pushing so hard for evidence against him. I've refuted evidence myself that I know not be true, don't chalk my argument up to something as simple as bookings.

Again, personal attacks are not the key here, and that is what's "tearing us apart".

You say stop "personally" attacking people..

Are you serious?

Thats all you, your girlfriend and friends have been doing this whole time.

Attacking Jimmy and his "personal" life. Nothing to do with Massive Intent at all.

Massive Intent "the company" is made up of a couple individuals and is only 1 1/2 years old. Massive Intent has a good track record as a company.

Everyone does have a right to ask questions. This is true but seriously, on Showtek's board?? Lol

Email them and ask.

What sucks the most right now is that the handful of people causing waves is really just tearing us all apart.

The handful members of THT that are bitching about this are not the ones being booked by MI in the first place, so your logic is flawed.. 2 of the 3 aren't even DJs. Criticizing this show has NOTHING TO DO WITH GETTING BOOKED by MI.. It has everything to do with those specific individuals being disappointed with MI productions.

THT started throwing shows bc we were sick of half ass productions, so bitching about them is nothing new.. We don't have deep pockets, but we do have heart. And we don't care if most people know who we are bc we throw parties for our friends to enjoy.. Not to generate money or fame.

I have personally done promotions for MI and performed at several shows, and for the record, yes, I have always been paid.. I don't know anyone else that got a bad check (aside from Tom who called them out on TS, then was cut a new check). I don't think anyone claimed that MI has stiffed anyone while they have been throwing shows in TX.

PS. Of course MI lost money on some of their shows last year, but any startup company plans to lose money at first. That hardly means they are broke..

Stop attacking people personally on here. People are wary of Massive Intent's intent. So what? If shit doesn't go right, people have a right to ask questions, and when those questions aren't answered, then what do you expect them to do?

Personally attacking Treehouse Tribe is retarded as I'm not speaking for them. I'm speaking for me, from what I know. Anything I say, you can attack me personally, my name is Alexander Jacob Grant and I'll be here all day.

What Noel said.

Also those links are 2 years old or older, and some of them are not even associated with the kind of business that James Mondragon is conducting in Texas.

I've written a bad check before. Got arrested for it. The amount? $72.48 or somewhere around there. that was from April of 2001. Got arrested for it during a traffic stop in February of 2009. Spent the night in jail? Does that make me a dishonorable person? Possibly to some.

And just to satisfy my own interests, as I do work for Jimmy, I did some research last night with regards to what people are saying he's doing in Texas. I have not found one lawsuit filed against James Mondragon, Jimmy Mondragon, Jimmy Intent, Massive Intent, or Brian Delancey in Travis County or the state of Texas.

I've never heard of him not paying the DJs. The track record speaks for itself. Why do you think you see some names repeated at shows. It's not because they weren't paid. That's for sure.

And if this true:
Divas 09- MI GOES BROKE!!! FAIL BLOG!!!
OIABM 09 - XP ok but still a fail

Then how was Ferry Corsten booked?
and how was the talent for Spring Love booked? Usually if a company is "broke", it can't pay for anything. So how was the venue paid for for Spring Love 2 and for the Showtek event?

Jeff     22 June 2010 19:44 | Austin
This is definitely getting to be a "hey I found information" on blah, blah blah. Really, get a job or a real life.

I looked at those "lawsuits" and other BS. Honesty who cares what happened in 2000 or 2004 with Jimmy? Not the 10's of thousands that actually go to Massive Intent's events and enjoy them.

Its even funnier seeing post on how Massive Intent lost money on XX show so, the show was not good? What a crack up. I could care less if they lose money every time. We all go to party. No one knows or should even care about there financial backing but, obviously its good enough if they are still trucking along. Sh*t if their losing and still going I say "Thank you" for letting me party on your dime.

The only people really bitching are DJ's that dont get booked or people supporting their girlfriend or boyfriends B.S.

The tree house tribe may be mad about new years but, who really cares? Most people do not even know who they are(no offense) Plus who paid for their headliner and his flights that never got repaid because they cancelled? (Massive Intent, Jimmy)

Noel     22 June 2010 19:29 |
your links about contract breaches are in cali ?????? what the *** does that have to do with austin partys and contract breaches here??? it has nothing to do with what happend this past weekend. I HAVE ALWAYS GOT PAYED . I HAVE WITNESSED EVERYONE ELSE GET PAYED SO STFU AND QUIT BITCHING. SHOWTEK/THERE MANAGEMENT DIDNT WANT TO ACCEPT PAYMENT... ITS THERE *** FAULT THE END. I was one of the ones trying to get a hold of them also and no one was *** answering there phones!!! the money was there. what the *** is so hard to understand now?

Im confuzzled     22 June 2010 19:23 | huh?
Tom... WHAT?!?!?!?! O.o

Im confused. What does that have to do with whoever posted the whole MI exposed thing? Its still jimmy. The point was not the night club, he didnt even own it. The point was that i got is that all the links are cold hard evidence that James David Mondragon aka jimmy with massive intent has been screwing people over for years and he has court cases and law suits littering the ground wherever he goes. He is about 3 million in debt right now.... sooooooo i dont see how anything tom said is relevant

Tom     22 June 2010 19:03 | Austin, TX
Dude, a fictitious business name in California is the same as a DBA (Doing Business As) in Texas. it's something that every business owner has to get to register their business name with the state. I have several here in Texas - you just go down to the Tax office, fill out a form, and give them $16. It's completely routine, and your interpretation of the law is fail.

"California State law (Business and Professions Code section 17910) requires that every person, partnership, corporation, or other association, who regularly transacts business in California for profit under a Fictitious Business Name, file a statement with the County in which the principal place of business is located. Part of the filing requirement is that the statement be published in a newspaper of general circulation in the County in which the business is located."

What the fact that Jimmy owns a nightclub 2500 miles from Austin has to do with anything, I don't know.

Links to a rave board where people are bitching isn't relevant to this either, nor are the rest of your ad hominem fallacies.* Just because you think Jimmy's a piece of shit doesn't mean he couldn't have been in the right in this case, and for you to claim otherwise is intellectually dishonest.

Oh, and FTR everybody, ShowTek's manager actually emailed me. I'm going over what he says and verifying a few things, but it was cool that he took the time to talk to me about this.

Soeki, any statement I make is purely my opinion, don't group me in with the company me and my friends started FROM OUR HOUSE. I have the information, I'm looking at it, and the conclusion is the same, broke or not, Massive Intent has *** plenty of people, and I just hope that you can afford lube.

I posted all of that on the Massive Intent "Showtek - Greedy" Thread.

Fictitious doesn't mean false in the sense of a business. The collections and hot checks are part of the same lawsuit.

I'm on your side, but you're only pulling evidence that has already been brought to light over a year ago on Teknosounds.

Can anyone provide hard factual evidence that Jimmy Intent has *** them over?
