    it does sound a bit odd - as far as I know SVD doesn't have form for this kind of thing so there must be more to it.

    if it had been jokenfold he probs would have thrown a strop at anything, then it wouldn't be so surprising :lol:

    Just spoke to SVD Agent and there is
    more to it - he is sending through a
    press release later today which

    fucking hell:

    Ottaviani
    Sander Van Doorn
    Mark Norman
    Bryan Kearney
    Zany
    Proteus
    BK
    Barry Connell


    fantastic line-up that as well, with the exception of BK.

    i couldent imagine that ever being quiet like, especially for the hardnuts that are down south.

    its because the only club able to put on such line-ups would be digital. but its shit, so its not going to happen.

    apparently up here we love lisa lashes. apparently.

    copy and paste from his face book...
    So for the record…this is what happened:

    We finished up in Goodgreef in Preston and began the drive to Cardiff. Whilst on route my manager got 2 phone calls from the venue trying to cancel me. We thought we’d check it out ourselves as we were almost there. When we got to Cardiff the guys who were running the event told us we wouldn’t be getting paid for it. So think about it yourselves - would you go to work for free, or for half the price?

    At the end of the day I have a manager and he made the call, which I totally agree with. I hope you can all understand this.
    Cheers

    Then why turn up to the gig if your potentially getting cancelled??

    Personally, If id been booked, then set off & the venue tried to cancel me on route id just invoice them & totally sack off even going to the event. Surely theres T's & C's in Sanders contract which state if such events happen he still gets paid, theres gotta be!?
