Loopz, Those are quite big name artists. You gonna loose money aren't you? How much did Mike P, V Snares, k-formation mike in mono (ex-plone) and frog pocket cost? Must be running into 2k surely? You'd have to get at least 300 odd people into the venue just to cover costs? How are you going to achieve that or are you just mad? Its seems a possible number, only just, but surely this is an exercise in ego stroking, nothing more. Can't be any benefit for you. Please enlighten me Loopz whats in it for you? There has to be some logic. |

Hey Loopz don't get me wrong its a great line-up but I'm just questioning the sanity in what your doing. I reckon its gonna probably cost more like £3k but as I say I'd like to be enlightened. Whats the score how do plan to cover costs 'cause lets even forget about making a profit. I'm really interested please let me know. Whats the set up here? |

dont panic - we wont be down for sure. We have been fortunate for this night and we are already planing one in late November/early December and next year. We held one a few months ago and had Magnetaphone etc playing and the Brum Creative have been around since 1999 so you can imagine we know when to panic. also this is nothing to do with ego stroking. we just want to host a good party in our town. Bring more good music back to Birmingham. |

Loopz, Thanks for that but you completely failed to answer my question. Are you going to make a loss? That is the question. It is about ego stroking if there is nothing in it for you. Because you're going to all that effort setting up the party etc and paying 3k odd in fees to the artists and getting nothing out of it. The only good party thats been had is by the artists who are playing and its all on you. I just don't get it why go to all that effort and pay U-Ziq and Venetian Snares exbortant fees and get nothing back. If thats not the case let me know because I really want to know. If they want to play let me them do it. Let them carry the can if there is nothing in it for you. If you don't answer I'll take it that you're either planning to take a bath over this 'good party' that you're running or you have no interest in getting anything out of it. |

hmm, i'd pay that money to see these artist playing in my town, tho there would be more expenses for all the arrangements...and i was pretty sure they charge much more |

tolstoyed, Well you're nuts. Sad. That is just so sad. Have you no self respect? People don't respect you if you have no purpose other than to run around like a blue arse fly making all that effort and getting nothing back for it. You think U-Ziq and V Snares give a turd that you would have put on a party to spread the gospel? I don't think so, they'd say "thank you very much for my fee and nice to know you you sad loser". You only get respect when you do something seriously and with a serious purpose in mind. Yes its fun to do but you wouldn't catch me doing something like that without some way of making a profit or a reasonable return from it. As far as I'm concerned any artist can go take a flying jump if he/she expects me to take a big loss just to put him/her on. Forget it! |

Too add to my comments I'd say let the given artist organise it if they are so keen to play live. They're all to keen to have some dumb mug (some ignorant fan) organise a party for them and completely carry the can (costs, time and effort). There are a lot of losers around at the moment running silly parties with massive line-ups and quite frankly getting nothing out of it. What it does is leads the artists to think that there doesn't have to be any economic logic in running a party and that effectively someone will put all the time and effort in to running a party for free. |

well, the thing is (braindance) music scene here is...well there isnt one i remember last year when rephlex was touring in europe, they could have easily stoped here as they were passing from the gig in austria to the gig in italy close to my city, but since no promoters seem to be interested in braindance no one ever comes, because of this i'd be pretty interested to bring someone here, at least to see the response and to start something going...the thing is the nearest club i can go to and listen to music i like is about a 3 hour drive from here and im spending lots of money runing around europe and trying to see some acts "they'd say "thank you very much for my fee and nice to know you you sad loser" " what do i care, if thats the waaay they see it i dont mind as long as they provide good show, and btw if that about 3k is real it is not expensive at all as our local techno dj's dont charge much less anyway i dont have any experince in how these things work, so i better not say too much perhaps i'll try and do something in the next years...hopefully |

Well you have no self respect as I said. I have no respect for your either if you are just prepared to be used like that. |

|
|
so you're saying if you were me you'd be rather spending money on gas, hotels... perhaps it is different in the uk, where you have a great party almost every week |

Promo wrote "Thanks for that but you completely failed to answer my question. Are you going to make a loss? " how on earth can i answer that ? Its like saying are you going to win some money one day! I can tell your presumptions are totally incorrect and the last thing i would do is answer your questions about costs. as for the "They're all to keen to have some dumb mug (some ignorant fan) organise a party for them and completely carry the can (costs, time and effort). " comment!!! I for one aint no dumb mug or ignorant fan. I actually dont play much Venetian Snares but some of the other lads with the Brumcreative like him. so why not! I think maybe Mr Promo you need to look into what these nights are about instead of just seeing things in your own linear view. no offence like but you are very negative about something that should be enjoyed. SpaceCadet - spot on! :) |
