I really don't see what Darren's fee's have got to do with Squade. Styles has been around from day one and built his reputation over a long period. What's Squade done lately? Can;t see many bookings coming his way from now on.

Can't help but think that now he's had a pop at Styles and Future World, he'll become a Running Man.

he may be "the biggest name" but he most certainly is not the best ever since he got "famous" with all his poofy singing ******** (don't deny it the guy sings like a ****in bender) and ever since he got hardcore noticed by more people the music started to change into the ******** we hear today so i think the little prick has a lot to answer for imho

well after he got "famous" the music started to change and became more geared to "pop culture" etc the all the dubstep/electro crap came in and was the "new fresh sound" which is just complete crap

why do i say this well not one of my friends like hardcore i'm the black sheep they all like pop/rap/house etc but the love DS's hardcore tracks...BUT i let them hear a bit of scott brown, kevin energy etc and they're like "ooooh that's shit" and i tell them that's the genre DS makes and they don't belive me thy're like he does clubland etc he's definitely a major part of everything that's wrong with "UK" hardcore these days

Blame him for his music if you will, don't blame him for every cunt else trying to be the same.

Does it not speak volumes that your mates like DS but aren't arsed about hardcore as a whole? He's capable of reaching that type of person and its maybe one of the reasons why he can get away with charging more for his sets. As above, it's not his fault that everyone has (poorly in many cases imo) tried to copy his style.

Booking fees are proportional to draw. That party was sold out.

Maybe it would have sold out anyways or maybe they should've charged more but... Nonetheless, booking fees generally match draw.

This has never happened in my experience its a set fee & they take it whatever the turn out, had a few really bad turn outs & never had one offer to do it for less, when it could have been a big help.

I don't know why Squad-E doesn't just accept it all and think to himself 'These booking fees are Out Of My Hands'.
