derrick carter is playing the sat night of the bd, may 1st the sunday is as stated, though its just dubfire from deepdish ticket prices are £27 plus bf, 6pm-12am
So its only on for 6 hours?? Would have thought it'd be a big longer than that for all those dj's and that price.
6 hrs is too short, means it's the length of a usual night. Must be licence issues - they should start it a 1 though.
They initially wanted a 2am license but it must have got knocked back. Agree it should start earlier esp for that money. The warehouse party lasts about 17 doesn't it and will probably be about the same price
where do shindig get off charging huge entrance fees?? they piss me right off. just cos flying closed down doesn't mean they should arse rape us to compensate. £27+booking fee (which will probably be £2) twats i'm pleased they've gone for something a little bit fresh but booking the same dj 2years in a row for your birthday? at least they're imaginative(!)
I don't mind paying the £27 as it's paying for the line up however I'd like to get the chance to see what I'm paying for and over 6hrs I won't.
They are no worse than anyone else. Their regular night is cheaper than clubs like Gods Kitchen and Promise. Most clubs charge a lot for big Bank Holiday events. Saying that 27 is excessive - it will sell out so you can't really blame them. Supply and demand
i'm not sticking up for the price - though it is a good few names on one bill - i'm just mentioning that flying records was never anything to do with shindig - its just some of them worked there - so i doubt they are trying to arse rape us to make some major wedge - just cover the dj fee bill and have some spare change. any money those djs add a bit on the fee for a bank holiday sunday. ive got an image of being arse raped now that i wish i hadnt. ouch.
it was meant to be on til 2am, but the police fucked it over at the last minute. i think derrick carter is the only dj definately confirmed on the sat
Nick, you got any idea how much it costs to stage something like this?! Fuck me, it seems like we just have to throw wads of cash on the fire to do PGR nights and they're usually in venues with all the right licences, soundsystem and with just us playing! Would imagine the legal fees would take a bit of wedge regardless of DJ fees, advertising, staffing, stage, decor, lighting and visuals, soundsystem...
