Some dj's are booked because they are part of crews that run successful nights. Promoters know booking these dj's will ensure greater ticket sales hence how some dj's get alot gigs.

In the odd case which i know of: some dj's even buy the tickets pretending to sell them..... just to get a gig.

All the local DJs on the line up are great DJs
I cant see them being booked having a huge effect on ticket sales though?

Hence why i said "some dj's" and hence the post before me was only referring to the "click click" djs. Alot of the locals are awesome and this event has a solid local lineup.

Dj's like Gav, Mike Callander etc are booked on ability. Some dj's are booked because they are part of a crew. The crew might pick which dj gets the gig....

Charlee you would be surpised how many tix some crews can move and there are alot of promoter poltics at the moment......

Its like the mafia really isnt it?

Sorry, I forgot about that last post

Lol you have to watch your back in this scene

And also Liquid City

OK now that I have caught up on all things Future I feel more educated. Their website has so many different events coming up it took me awhile to get through it all.

Hot BBQ is a maybe.

Liquid City is Daniel's (Loaded) brand under Future's banner. Most of the tech artists toured by Future will play for Liquid City....

Future are really working on some big events...
Summadayze, FMF, Chemical Bro's...all pretty large.

Looking forward to the hardware announcements
