Am I missing something here? Compare this years FutureMusic Fest with this event - same venue, same time length, roughly the same price tickets, about 20 of the most diverse and biggest internationals in dance music vs one 90s rapper.


even compare it to Summer Break across the road.


You have got to be joking!? Whats the bet the kids snap up these tickets though.

Ice ice baby!

I wouldn't go, but if Sccoter was capacity, then I imagine there are even bigger suckers that would go!

A serious line-up of nobodys from the look of that website.

One would hope there are a lot more names to be added to that to justify that ridiculous ticket price.

people paid thousands of pounds to see a band in london a couple of days ago that are about 30 years past their prime

$70, really thats only half a normal night out in dollar terms

lets kick it.

two (maybe 3) hits thankyou very much!

other people think its absurd that thousands of kids pay to go and stand around in a dusty field all night listening to repetitive music... get over it not everyone is the same...

I've seen a flyer for this with Bloc Party billed as well... that would make the ticket price much more reasonable

I've seen artwork with Bloc Party DJ Set (whatever the fuck that means?).

But the official site or myspace doesnt mention it so I dare say it isnt confirmed or is no longer happening.

i'd go at that price too.

You guys do know Nova is largely behind this right? Fitzy and hanz did pertitions down rundle mall a month or 2 ago, fitzy for icey, hanz against.

By the end of the week, Fitzy won.

I'd go and see Bloc Party, I'd enjoy that. But if it's a DJ set they might not play their usual songs...

Word to ya mother.

a 'band' doing a dj set will generally not even play one of their own songs

would be good to see what sort of stuff they play (if they show up)
