Ok, Yelling At Cats, or rather your real name, Kyle, I didn’t want to say anything about what happened at the con, because I didn’t want to embarrass you, or make you look bad, but now that you’ve publicly made false statements, particularly ones that are injurious to others, I simply have to tell the truth.
Kyle. The con was not disorganized. YOU were the one to cause SEVERAL of the problems at the con, not the staff. Not ME. Not DERPIDITY. AND SURE AS HELL NOT BEJOTY. How dare you accuse them of such outright lies, when in reality, all of the bad things that you’ve listed are your OWN FAULT.
The reason why I type in caps is to emphasize how outraged and insulted I am that you dare make such heinous and false accusations in light of your own foolish, irresponsible, and unprofessional actions.
With ponystock: The reason why your set was moved was the same reason why everyone else’s set was moved. You showed up 20 MINUTES before the concert started, when everyone else had showed up hours before. To top that off, you showed up with a very large, very drunk man who had no authorization to be anywhere near the stage or the practice room. Derpidity had to move your set so that we could make sure that everything would go fine if you didn’t show up at all. As a result, EVERY SINGLE PERFORMER’S SET WAS MOVED. NOT JUST YOUR OWN. And yes, cry all you want about how you were kept downstairs by security, but that is bullshit. You know why? Because first off, i have several accounts that attest to you being too busy FLIRTING WITH and HARASSING other con goers to notice that you were running late. Second off, your phone was left in your room, as it had been all day. If you had had your phone, we could’ve come down and gotten you, but you left it in your room. Regardless of those facts, you reportedly showed up barely an hour or two in advance, which STILL would not have been enough time, considering EVERY SINGLE OTHER PERFORMER had shown up at least 2 1/2 hours in advance. WE HAD NO SOURCE OF CONTACT WITH AND YOU SHOWED UP 20 MINUTES BEFORE YOUR SET WITH A LARGE DRUNK MAN. YOU YOURSELF SMELLED OF ALCOHOL. AS A RESULT OF YOUR NEGLIGENCE, WE HAD TO MOVE EVERY SINGLE PERFORMER’S SET BACK TO ACCOMMODATE FOR YOUR UNPROFESSIONALISM.
Regardless of this simple little fact, this would’ve been forgivable, had you not been a COMPLETE AND UTTER ASININE BRAT about EVERYTHING. Icky and Addictia flew out from fucking GERMANY AND THE NETHERLANDS. WITH THEIR OWN MONEY. When they heard there might be set cuts as a result of your actions, Kyle, they offered to not play, to give other people some time, as well as Whitetail (your actions are commended, guys. Thanks for your sacrifices). Meanwhile, you were offered a full 30 minute set, but you got moved a day or two ahead, and all you did was BITCH and COMPLAIN and WHINE. You did not attempt to reconcile. At the first sign of set changes, you IMMEDIATELY started hounding Derpidity and I with berating comments and threats of legal action, even though, and I can get a lawyer to verify, we had NOT broken your contract at ANY POINT. Meanwhile, showing up late, harassing staff and con-goers, etc. directly DID break YOUR contract, as well as several laws in the US against harassment!
Now, as for your swearing: We all had been told several times that there was nothing more than PG-13 at the con, since kids and Hasbro staff were to attend. You were supposed to supply a link to your setlist on the performance documents a WEEK before the con, but you refused to do so. Neither I, nor Derpidity, saw any links to a setlist until 3 days before the con (which, by the way, is a direct violation of your contract). When I noticed a swear in one of my songs, I asked Derpidity if I could perform it, to which he replied NO. At this, I immediately showed him your set, and he moved you back because there was no way you could possibly have censored it in the 15 minutes you had before going on stage. We could’ve resolved this problem earlier, but you REFUSED to show up until 20 minutes before the concert started (did I mention that you brought a LARGE, DRUNK MAN into a direct path of CHILDREN AND INNOCENT ADULTS, WHOM HE COULD’VE HARMED, AND HAD MADE THREATS TO DO SO? YEAH, I THINK I DID MENTION THAT). We moved your set so that you could have some SEMBLANCE of a set left, even though you had, by that time, broken your contract several times. We all put our necks on the line to save your set, and you treated us like shit.
As for your set: I have it confirmed by every single audio technician, every single staff member, Derpidity, and Bejoty, that you were pulled for swearing and gratuitously disturbing/violent lyrical content. Even more so, from my stand point, you had no idea to perform! I heard from several of the lights/AV guys that they had to do everything in their power to distract the audience from your stuttering and mistakes, whether it be lowering mic volume, or strobing lights as a distraction. All this coming from the guy who had constantly yelled at me to practice banter, stage presence, and live performance, which, according to several people who watched the show, i had a LOT of, meanwhile, you did NOT.
As for coming to the con again: You sir, as far as Bejoty, Derpidity, and I are concerned, are hereby BANNED from performing at Everfree Northwest. I wonder if they’ll even let you attend! This decision was made while we were calling the head of security on you (for the SECOND TIME, may I add), as you had gone missing, just before your set (which, by the way, is the SECOND time you had done this). The reason you were missing was because YOU made up a story in your mind where Derpidity had cancelled your set, and believed in it. Derpidity NEVER said ANYTHING of the sort. But you still bitched at every single staff member, performer, and security guard, before storming off in a hissy fit so foul that we were worried you were going to KILL YOURSELF.
So, to sum it all up: About 1/2 of everything that went wrong with ponystock was YOUR FAULT, the other half being the fact that police received noise complaints and shut us down at 2 am every night. And even with all of the things that YOU have done to impede Ponystock, break contract, worry concerned friends, and break trust with friends and family, we might be able to forgive you if you weren’t such a spoiled, stuck-up, whiney ass, self entitled brat about EVERY LITTLE THING that happens to you, all the while being unable to see how much of an impediment you were to everything that you and everyone else wanted.
I will never perform with you again, as a result of your lack of stage presence, professionalism, and over all skill in general.
As for calling me your friend? You can forget about it. This, coupled with everything else that you’ve done to hurt me, Mixi, Ibeabronyrapper, Headsmack, and COUNTLESS others, has made me realize that all you will ever do to me is hurt me and make me look bad.
As for Mic and Omni…I’ve only really been friends with mic for a couple weeks, and with Omni, for a couple months, but they’ve already proven to be much better friends to me, and much larger people than you, considering they actually try to resolve things with you, while you continuously hold a grudge with them. And in light of your recent actions at EVNW, and in light of your constant abuse of Mixi, I think that the things that you complain about them doing, are really things that YOU do, that you try to pin on them.
I will accept an apology, but I will NEVER collab with you, I will NEVER perform with you, and I sure as hell will NEVER be your friend.
Consider this my resignation from KOLT, and from our friendship.
Sincerely, and with great sadness,
-Henning Rotstein (F3nning)F3nning, you fuckin’ go girl. Preach it.
I personally vouch for everything F3nning has said to be fact because half of these things I helped F3nning deal with, and was there for him. I’m personally offended that I get home and after DEFENDING YOU, CATS at Everfree DESPITE what others said, you go off and say stuff like this, and on top of that I get testimonies from close friends of mine that you hit on them and flirted with them heavily, as well as witnessing this first hand myself, regardless of you being in a long distance relationship. I’m legitimately hurt cat’s, you blatantly lied to me and those I cared about. I can forgive you for this, but I can’t say we can be very good friends now. You broke my trust, if you actually want to be my friend again, earn it back.Until then, Yelling at Cats.
Damn Kyle, I’m actually legit offended at your dishonesty.
YOU AND I TALKED ABOUT THE CENSORSHIP OF YOUR LYRICS LONG BEFORE YOU WERE SCHEDULED TO PERFORM. DID YOU FORGET WHAT WE SAID ABOUT REPLACING PROFANITY WITH CLEAN REPLACEMENT WORDS? NOT TO MENTION THE “IMPREGNATE LUNA” LINE.
You were moved primarily because you were missing at the time you were supposed to perform (which was after Ibeabronyrapper, if I remember correctly). Every other musician who was there during the beginning on Ponystock on Friday knows exactly what I’m talking about. Kyle, your absence was part of the reason why you were moved.
Also, if you are not willing to conform to the rules of the convention AND KEEP IT CLEAN AT A CONVENTION FOR A SHOW MADE FOR KIDS, I would actually vouch for you to never perform for a convention ever again. Seeing as it was your first offense, that will likely not happen. But anymore offenses and you’re likely to be screwed.
Also, you might wanna read that contract that YOU signed. THAT EVERY PERFORMER SIGNED. You signed it, you agreed to it. So you, being the violator of said contract, can’t legally dispute anything. The fact that you posted this on either 4chan or Ponychan seriously makes me want to embarrass you on 4chan right about now, but at least I have some kind of standards, so…
Oh, one more thing, guys, Sunshine Smiles actually lied to Kyle about how Derpidety was trying to get him “cancelled”. So that’s where I assume he’s getting that story from.
So yeah, wake the hell up from this fantasy where everything goes your way. And do it fast, before the next con you perform at, or maybe even Hasbro, does it the hard way.
