EDC's budget probably was not enough to get Fatboy Slim because Guetta's asking price is to damn high. So I guess they decided fake talent over real talent.

the subtraction of FATBOY SLIM has NOTHING to do with budget. I hope we can book him again for future events. he deserves a very special event in the US!

This will be my first EDC and while I'm sad Norman can't make it, by looking at the lineup, this is easily the biggest show in North America, hands down. I can't believe how huge this thing is. Gotta give massive massive props to the entire Insomniac crew for putting on what will be my biggest event I've ever attended

He also canceled another show.

***ANNOUNCEMENT - FATBOY SLIM UNABLE TO APPEAR AT SNOWBOMBING. 2manydjs NEWLY ANNOUNCED TO HEADLINE FOREST CLEARING

It is with great regret that Fatboy Slim has had to pull his appearance at this year�s 10th Anniversary SNOWBOMBING festival. SNOWBOMBING and Norman�s management have worked tirelessly to find a resolution, but unfortunately medical advice has lead to the cancellation of the headline appearance on doctor�s orders.

Norman�s management company have stated that Norman is devastated and issued this statement today:
"A very upset Norman Cook has had to cancel his Fatboy Slim appearance at Snowbombing this year because his treatment is taking a little longer than he'd hoped for. Norm said " I'm choked to be missing out on the gig in the mountain forest, but I really hope Snowbombing will have me back for another crack at it next year. Sorry to let you down folks."

Gareth Cooper, event promoter, commented from SNOWBOMBING HQ:
�We�re gutted that Fatboy Slim can�t headline this year, as it promised to be the icing on top of our 10th Anniversary cake. The celebrations will continue in his honour, and it still promises to be the mother of all birthday parties. We send him our collective support and best wishes towards a speedy recovery, and hope we can fulfil his wish to play at next year�s event.�

It�s not all bad news however, as we�re delighted to be able to announce that amazing mix monsters 2manydjs will be joining the throng to smash it up at the Forest Clearing Party this year. Featuring the Dewaele brothers from Soulwax, 2manydjs are sickeningly good DJs who know how to make a party rock, so you�re definitely in for a tip-top treat.

Insomniac is disappointed by recent news that we have received. Fatboy Slim has decided to withdraw from this year�s festival citing �unavoidable family commitments� as the reason for the cancellation.

so which is it...family commitments or his treatment is taking longer?

I didn't feel so bad about my job after I asked him what he did for fun on the weekends. He told me, "I like to go out in the country and go Pheasant & Quail Hunting; and shoot beer cans. No chicks. Just me and the boys." LMAO!!!
