Too much of this stuff going around in montreal, and too many bands wanted on craigslist for bad gigs, so i thought i'd give my 2 cents.

It happens a lot here in Ottawa as well.. I am willing to bet that this sort of thing is in all cities

OK so help me out Tber's! Uhm one guy from a production agency somehow found an unrelated email address of mine, added me on msn and started ****ing at me.

Even though the email address is hidden by craigslist. Blocked him but still, how did this happen? I have the right to freedom of speech.

Inside job or he had someone hack CL. Got your IP address and tied it to your email address.

jeese i expect some trouble from the other production agencies, That rant is damn right!

Just the fact that this guy hacked Craigs to ge my ip address speaks volumes about his moral.

I suggest forwarding the emails to CL management and let them know you're being harassed.

I have a good freind of over 25 years that books his own gigs across Canada. You need to build a reputation/footwork (post posters)call venues or make contacts by going to gigs and asking who to talk to about getting gigs. Read the book by Dave Bidinin called For those about to rock...

Post that email thread on CraigsList.

post the guy's email address here.. I am sure many TBer's will have a lot to say to this pile of shite.

You do have a right to freedom of speech. Did he mention the name of his production agency? You obviously hit a nerve with him if he would risk possibly hacking CL to get your info, or go on the inside and breach privacy laws to get your info. Perhaps he is one of those scumbags that make money off of letting bands pay to play.... .

+1 to putting the email back-and-forth on CL.

kubacki · #12 07-01-2009, 12:33 PM

+1 on posting the convo on CL, and his email. This guy needs some harassment.
