so is this true or not?
| quote: |
"in the last 24 hours, spiro boursine (the organiser of earthcore), sent an email out to the (now cancelled) international artists, informing them that he would only pay them a fraction of the original amount that was agreed in the contract. many of the artists have already paid for their flights internationally to get to australia and are already here. two of the artists i know from israel (from first hand account) were absolutely shocked and outraged, and replied to spiro/earthcore demanding an explanation, and requesting that he pay the full amount originally agreed. spiro/earthcore responded by THREATENING TO TAKE LEGAL ACTION AGAINST ANY ARTISTS WHO DO NOT TURN UP TO THE EVENT (even with his absurd, ridiculous demand of lower rates). obviously this is completely disgraceful.
this party was planned to be spiro/earthcore’s last event, and most of the tickets have already been sold. by cancelling half of the international acts, he will get a VERY large income, with much lower expenses, and he will not have to worry about the fallout from any future parties, because there won’t be any. the end result is spiro/earthcore will walk away with a very big pocket full of a lot of cash. this is plainly and simply, a SCAM. It’s a huge scam with honest punters money. he is ripping people off intentionally for his own profit.
anybody who is part of the industry in australia knows that this type of behaviour IS VERY COMMON PRACTICE FROM SPIRO BOURSINE OF EARTHCORE. he very rarely pays artists or djs. when he doesn’t get what he wants (even when its completely unreasonable) he threatens promoters, artists and media with legal action. he is a disgusting human being. other promoters and those in the industry are frustrated to see year after year spiro/earthcore keeps hurting people, but new unknowing punters keep buying tickets. many people try to publish these horrible facts about spiro/earthcore on internet websites and news channels but spiro/earthcore threatens legal action and demands that these facts be removed. (you will witness this fact with your own eyes when this post is removed from the site. it will be removed from the site because spiro/earthcore will make legal threats of defamation against this site, who will have no option but to remove the post or pay tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees)
i can only hope that finally, punters will see first hand how immoral and unethical spiro/earthcore is. i hope that this appalling behaviour and completely unprofessional, unethical, and unjust actions will show everyone once and for all, the REAL earthcore.
i boycot all of earthcores parties, i urge punters to not let earthcore rip you off any further. protest the only way we can, by not going to his events. protect our community by spreading the truth." |

highly likely i think..
apparently vibrasphere were physically threatened. also spiro/earthcore has a reputation for this thing as well. it's hard to really know though, so much has been talked about it on itm, threads have been closed, deleted and re-opened and on other forums too. one person said they saw spiro attack a woman too. it's really quite bizarre. the conspiracy theories go even further with someone saying that new caledonia is a non extradition treaty country or something and since there are some upcoming earthcore parties there spiro is gonna flee there haha. i just assumed it was part of australia... |
