Originally posted by Nerologic I remember earlier this year when i drove up to see Deadmau5 at the apple store. All those kids fucked that up to.

Well that was more Apple's fault for saying there definately wouldn't be more than 50 people at the event, and not preparing for it.

It's poor planning guys.


I was at HARD SUMMER 2008 and they totally messed up the timeslots. MSTRKRFT had way too long of a set with an already late schedule made it so the last performers got excluded completely.

What was more infuriating, was that the Bloody Beetroots had their timeslot cut in half...It's history repeating itself! .

Even with poor organizing such as that event, these events are still booming with crowds.

It's because the entire electro scene is mainstreaming with artists like Crookers/LMFAO hitting radio that these events are thriving.


I'm REALLY curious how Hard Haunted Mansion(basement jaxx/zombie nation/Deadmau5) will turn out or what the HARD crew is going to do to redeem themselves. People were chanting "fuck this" "fuck hard" quite a bit after the show...

but overselling tickets is the only way that SoCal promoters seem to know how to work! i dont know how this hasnt happened at EDC, TAO, Monster, or any of thos other large events!

It did happened to EDC this year. They shut down the main arena for an hour.

blame it on steve aoki, he pulls in a large crowd.

I meant complete shutdown. EDC got to keep going. And I wasn't at TAO but I've heard really bad stuff from few people. Eaither way these events are over sold too often...
Which is the promoters mistake from greed. Not any artists problem.... Try just show up and get paid...

one of my friends who was there told me the sound system got fucked during crystal castles, and maybe all this was a cover up
