I would personally sue the city for shutting this event down.
fuck, im in teh states, I can sue for anything, cant I?
yes, a big article like this CAN and most likely will affect one part of sales only, door walkups. TONNES of cash is made from door sales, and articles like this, especially if written at the right time(say this had been early next week) can be 100% devastating.
Sucks to be a promoter in this day and age!

Mmmm I doubt it. First, Ultra attracts and brings so much money to Miami, that Miami will feel sorry once they loose Ultra. I doubt that Ultra will not happen again, but probably on a different venue. Though it will be greatly affected hence the fact of the WMC if it DOES move.

One way or another, this party is going to be huge!!
Are you talking about the 2001 ZenFest?? Or a later installment??
I didn't even know there was a second one it was so underpromoted...

That's a great idea! Take him to see Tijs and Paul Van Dyk!!! It might change his mind. Then again, he might also see some rolling people and get freaked out.....
If Diaz wanted to realy stop it he could have kept a better watch over the event rather than trying to do some bullshit 2weeks before the event... politicians can go fuck them selves....

I'm still wondering how the mayor of Miami didn't know about this untill last week. By saying that he only showed his ignorance.
And no lollipops? Are you serious? ROFL
