I called this in the EDC thread.
This will just be the beginning, just sit back and watch.
I don't even think Insomniac and its lenders have enough money to buy off the congressmen that has a hard-on on killing all massives all together. I hope I am wrong though. |

Unless you can somehow bring her back to life, the world may never know... |

| Doesn't an autopsy show what drugs or how much was consumed? |

It will, but it will not tell you if she was forced to take them or not.

"When asked if slower-than-expected ticket sales affected the cancellation, Richards said "I'd rather not comment on that."

There's a concern, and I've heard from multiple agencies," said James Valdez, a state park ranger and the lead coordinator for events in the Los Angeles sector who will be overseeing Hard L.A. "Will we reevaluate our plans and logistics? Yes. In light of Electric Daisy, we will increase our numbers all the way around."
Cut from the story, however, was the off-handed comment from Valzez that "there may be more staff than people" at Hard L.A. Exaggeration or not, Gary Richards, a veteran dance music promoter who is hosting Hard L.A., noted in a separate interview that "we could use some more ticket sales." |

| It was canceled due to pretty lackluster ticket sales. Holding the event wouldn't have been profitable for HARD. |

I find that VERY hard to believe, considering the last 3 (or is it 2?) HARD events have sold out prior to the day of the event.
It makes no sense that all of a sudden no one would show up.

Like it was said before, I wouldn't be beneficial for the event to continue if lack of pre-sales didn't meet a certain level. If you don't take actions like this, You are now hoping for certain number of walk ups. |

I wouldn't say it's "all of a sudden", the last Hard got shutdown an hour or so into the party. That probably left a bad taste in people's mouths and not as many people wanted to go.
Like...he can't just lie and say no? :stongue:
Whatever, Hard is lame anyway. Terrible lineups and an even worse crowd, albeit much much smaller, than EDC. |

very different lineups also.... this is more of a live-music event versus dj driven events at halloween or the Underworld show...
i don't know anyone personally who was going to this... while I knew of several people that have attended their 2008 and 2009 parties. |
