The word "Massive" means commercial

Name me one event that is "massive" and not commercial

Exemple : Laurent Garnier + Jeff Mills + Richie Hawtin + Villalobos + Sasha

Is that commercial or not ? ...

Laurent plays dubstep because he enjoys it, but everyone plays dubstep now .. even tiesto

Is Laurent commercial because of that ?

What do you mean by commercial ?

The question doesn't make sense

Is Montreal ready for a massive event featuring talents that aren't showcased in the popular raves happening in Montreal right now .....

That sounds right to me

If you ask the question correctly ... people will focus more on the answer than asking other questions to clarify the original one IMO

the "commercial" tag has always been silly, because it implies that they want to make money which is normal...hence the term "commercially viable.". Piknic books "underground" (hate that word) acts yet are commercially viable so by definition alone they are commercial no matter who they book.

So like I said depending on if your an NCM or Officer and your rank, you probably make at least $50,000 a year but most likely more. And depending on if you live at CFB Kingston your cost of living is probably very low as well, but even if you weren't cost of living in Kingston isn't that bad. Its only $30 which is cheaper than most nights at Stereo. Most of us on here who post about Stereo have put out probably hundreds and hundreds of dollars clubbing there just this year alone, and have never really complained for the most part. I know I sure as hell have.

The Piknic crew should throw a daytime party at Pier Jacques-Cartier during the summer, a noon-midnight type thing with the main stage and a smaller tent outside with locals. Now that'd be wicked.

It's all about hype and marketing IMO. If they can accomplish those two things well then yes, I think this thing could work.

Montreal already has Bal en Blanc and Black and Blue. One of those events is still maintaining the numbers, albeit with commercial music, and the other one has been having lighter attendance.

To do another festival for the sake of doing another festival to have non commercial music really doesn't make sense.
