Moby says he’d be happy to D.J. at one of Donald Trump’s inaugural balls on Jan. 20, but there’s a catch.
The electronic-dance D.J. announced on Instagram Monday that he was approached by the Presidential Inaugural Committee to perform for Trump’s upcoming festivities in Washington, D.C. But even though he says he respectfully declined, the dance music guru would consider it … in return for Trump’s tax returns.
“Hahahahaha, I was just asked by a booking agent if I would consider djing at one of the inaugural balls for #trump,” Moby wrote. “Hahahahaha, wait, Hahahaha, really? I guess I’d DJ at an inaugural ball if as payment #trump released his tax returns.”
The musician and animal rights activist even shared some thoughts on what tracks he would play should the president-elect agree to his terms.
“I would probably play public enemy and stockhausen remixes to entertain the republicans. I’m still laughing. Hahahaha. So #trump what do you think, I DJ for you and you release your tax returns?”
Moby has also shared a hypothetical inauguration playlist with Billboard, which includes a mix composed entirely of protest songs including, “A Change Is Gonna Come,” “The Revolution Will Not Be Televised,” “American Idiot” and “Killing in the Name.”
A spokesperson for Trump’s inaugural team did not immediately respond to TheWrap’s request for comment.
As TheWrap first reported, Trump has been struggling to book A-list performers for his inauguration balls. Elton John, Andrea Bocelli and Celine Dion are among a growing list of artists who declined to perform.
