And yes you are correct DJ's want to go so they charge less.
Holden costs 7000$ on a normal club night.
He charged 1000$ for himself + Nathan Fake + Fairmont cause he really wanted to play.
And yes they do deserve to make money. They almost didnt make any money on the first years.
The crazy thing is that some people (including myself) have suggested that they raise the ticket price in order to keep a quality crowd (people who are there for the music > ppl who just want to be there cause it's cool) but they have refused on every occasion.
Charging 10$ for thos crazy line ups is......crazy!
But that's the mission they set themselves to achieve, "démocratisation de la musique électronique". I don't know if that gives them govt grants for "artistic endeavour", or "événement culturel à prix modique", or whatever. It might, and that might be why they keep it so low, cause of some kind of grant. |
je t'aime julien
what i paid for amore fest was not even close and the lineup was great too.
quintal piknic = awesome
quintal hockey player = you.
most of these are acts you would never see at the clubs we have in town.

Isn't it only 5 dollars to get in if you go early and 10 after a certain time?
Those are pretty much the ones I want to see as well and all that adds up to 100 bucks tops...
The point of a pass? lol |
