DNA Lounge Says DJ Alan Braxe Booted Mid-Set for Urinating Onstage, Braxe Denies Accusation
Alan Braxe
Update: Via Pitchfork, a rep for Alan Braxe issued the following statement:
"I would just like to confirm this is a complete fabrication of the truth and Alain in no way urinated on any curtain or wall. This is a personal attack on Alain and something we will be taking very seriously indeed."
Original post: Looks like someone really, really had to go while performing onstage at DNA Lounge this past Friday. But rather than, say, pulling a Fergie and just wetting his pants -- or walking to the potty -- French house DJ Alan Braxe allegedly turned around and relieved himself on the club's back-wall curtain.
That's the story given by club owner Jamie Zawinski in this post on the DNA Lounge's website:
Turns out that our headlining DJ last night, Alan Braxe, has a bladder control problem. That's the generous explanation for why he decided, in the middle of his DJ set, to turn around and piss on our back-wall curtain instead of using the restroom which is twenty feet away.
After his set, when we had tossed him out, he was aghast that we chose not to let him back in. We said that we'd be happy to let him in if he paid us what it was going to cost to have the curtain cleaned. He declined. Also he threatened to sue us. "For what?" I inquired. "Because I wouldn't come out and talk to him," Barry tells me.Well, good luck with that.
Well, wow. We've got questions out to Braxe's people regarding the incident, and we'll update this post with their response if we get one.
