New information regarding PvD in Philly (yet ANOTHER example of Philly fucking up)
Don't even bother coming people...
Transit decided to pay PvD $28,000 for this 2 hour gig...and they're looking to book Luis Diaz as the opener for $2,500...
this means the patrons have to pay...
...at the tune of a $50 ADMISSION FEE!!
what's even worse is that no private jet or transportation has been especially arranged for pvd after his central park gig, so the people at transit aren't even sure if pvd can even make it to philly for his gig on time...
I knew Transit was going to fuck this up...People that aren't from the area have no idea how terribly frustrating the nightlife situation in Phily has become...

I should of listen to you when you told me to watch out for Transit. I tried to have a little more faith in them, but this stinks.
I'm staying my ass in NYC after PvD. Maybe hit Arc or something.
I hate Transit being the only club in Philly with money. We all get screwed in the end.

I heard a few weeks ago that it was only a 2 hour set. 50$ cover sounds about right for Transit also. They love to rip off their customers. The majority of people there wouldnt even notice who is spinning anyway.

well if this is true, then jayme, you should write an email to paul and markus saying how much of a ripoff this is and how unfair it is...
if paul/markus told made events to lower their price to no more than 40 for 6hr sets, i'm sure they would tell transit to do the same..
if this is the case, and PVD can't get to Philly in time for his set, mebbe he can spin at ARC for another charity event =p

I wouldnt be all that suprised if Transit never even booked PvD. They will charge people the outrageous cover, then use the excuse that he got hung up in NYC.

but transit doesnt know shit when it comes to treating their customers correctly...somebody HAS to step up and say something...if this turns out to be true, i refuse to let it slide, especially when it involves one of the best DJs in the world...
