Aphex in NYC???

This was posted to the WARP egroup this morning...

i will. i used to work at Warp, and i also heard the rumour
that Stuck on Earth was going to put on an Aphex Twin show
in November as well. From the mouth of my old boss, or
e-mail:

"aphex doesnt know anything about it and neither does his
agent!"

i'm just as disappointed, but i figured i shouldn't get my
hopes up :-/

best,
Vicki"

So whether it's actually happening or not, I dunno...That
guy who was supposed to be promoting it, did strike me a
being very odd (how many promotors announce their shit on a
messageboard??? that didn't make sense to me...)...

Anyone got any other news on this?...

ive contacted "The Roxy" where it is being held, and they
say its happening.

Also, ticketweb has sold tickets for it, and I have bought
2.

So im pretty sure its happening

i've been suspect of that fool from the get-go, and i've
told him so. just cos he got the roxy to buy his hype
doesn't mean the show is happening. that's why i said, his
opening act better not mind getting their assed beaten down
when he has to announce that RDJ isn't coming.

fake id, and going to all this trouble... and it turns out
he isnt comeing...

i will seriously loose my shit. i will get postal on his
ass, and do illegal things that could result in long prison
sentances

what makes you think andy dickhead is going to be anywhere
near the venue if he's pulling a scam? he has your money
already, right?

This is only a single email so it's not 100% proof it's not
happening...

just something to be aware of....& perhaps wary of...

let the fans be the first to know! the show is not until
nov. 13th, so we are not spending any money for marketing
until after BOO7. we are just going to advertise on our
halloween avent ! i guess, free ad.
and why would you not put it on the messegeboard. we have
sold alot of tix and have not paid for advertising! maybe it
will be a new thing for promoters! love andy"the elusive
mystical-did he get APHEX man" deer! see you at the show!

i am a - how do you say it in glasgow - a "nutbar" but i
produce many excellent events in nyc! and it is better for
the fans that we use TICKETWEB & TICKETMASTER because i do
not get any money until after the event happens, so if it
does not happen, then the kids only lose the handling fees!
but it is happening!

This is beyond wack...

andy, I can't believe you've done this on here...I really
can't...

The only plus sign is at least everyone's can get/has a
printout/copy of your overblown claims here...

Can everyone post here whatever happens re: getting money
back....or any other relevant info....

(I ain't gonna ban this guy yet....just in case he decides
to come back & help whoever needs to get their ticket money
back....)...

i think this guy is off his rocker...

in one of the posts I told him to shut up, cause he kept
posting the AFX info over and over...

then i got an email from him, saying how he doesnt
appriciate being told to shut up and blah blah. I deleted
it, blocked him, and didnt reply.

He seems scary to me.

Also, i talked to him on the phone when I was trying to make
the show 18+, and he talks very strange.

anyways... yeah im pissed

i don't think so. he cares enough about us to come on every
other night (but not post any messages) but i don't think he
cares enough about us to play a show out of sympathy.

just for info, I recieved this email from andydeer after I
posted...

"yo, this is andy deer. i would like to know where/why
you have info. saying this event is not happening! i
would like to speak with you! you can call me at my
office 12-5pm (ny time) mon-fri. or send me you # and
i will call you! thanks andy deer\unity productions llc"

to which I replied this morning...

"andy....

It's on http://www.rephlex.com (the label AFX owns) and I
quote...

"APHEX TWIN IS NOT APPEARING AT THE ROXY IN NYC:
do not be conned by the false claims that he is" ....

Can you either email me or post on the board the process
where people go for
their money back...

jand
j@g3rm.org"

haven't got anything back yet...

I've also just registed on these guys board and posted
pretty much the same with a request for info on obtaining
refunds....

Also I just noticed that TICKETWEB are still selling tickets
for this (Haven't checked TICKETMASTER but I imagine it's
the same) so they might be your best route for refunds...

If anyone hears anything can they pls post here....

to those who purchased tickets....pls let us know how it
goes getting your money back.

what i don't understand is how can someone sell tickets
throught ticketmaster for a show that doesn't really exist.
doesn't ticketmaster bear some responsibility in all this??

if u goto the rephlex site it no longer has the message
about afx not playing in nyc.. i mean wouldnt they leave it
up until they stop selling tickets for the show? now u say
it might be a trick either way the spposed show isnt till
november i will wait and see.. and not buy a ticket until
this is worked out.. but i still believe that its fake as
much as i hope its real lol

"Ok, whats going on here? The Roxy says that AFX is
schedualed for Nov 13th in NYC. Ticketmaster, and Ticketweb
are selling tickets (which I bought 2 of... thats $80), and
then I hear on rephlex.com that this is a hoax?
