I'm not saying you were shady (or "shaddy", whatever that means) or that you decieved people intentionally, but it is poor form to fail to announce that a major draw to your show won't be performing. Have other production companies done it? Yes, and it's shitty when they do it to. Don't point to the failings of other production companies to justify the failings of yours. Apologize and do better next time.

I've been to two Fresh productions - Winterfresh and Fresh Squeezed - and both of them have had major problems. I'm not suggesting that either of them were entirely within your control, but it's how you handle those things that come up unexpectedly that really test your mettle. Frankly, I feel like Fresh failed on both accounts.
dude, its only 5oclock on sunday lol. everyone is still asleep from working for 3 days straight to build this show. whos going to issue an apology right now. a statement will be made this week about it.. i myself didnt even find out till 20 mins before he was supposed to go on, and at first i was like WTF?!? then i saw xnoize standing there and was equally confused as excited because xnoize is fucking sick and i was actually really excited to get to see a psy dj i havnt seen live yet. believe me, noone was happy about astrix not making it (accept xnoize hahaha).


the point was that you were saying how great insomniac is and that they would NEEEVER do anything like that because theyre so legit, when they fucked 10000s of ticket holders out of a major artist without so much as a warning just because 'they are insomniac' and have other big names on there that you should be greatful to see

to be honost, gopher said it right. even if an announcement had been made saturday, people probably still wouldve gone just because it was a sick event with 5 stages of music to keep yourself entertained to. and anyways, who wouldve really seen it? maybe a handful of people might have seen it, and out of them most prob already wouldve had their presales and still gone anyways. also, alot of people dont use the internet often and dont even have myspaces. all in all, with the little notice we had, it wouldnt of made a difference accept to say that yea we said something. but we really only have a few people in our crew and theres no way we could spare losing someone during production just to have them sit at a computer doing bulletins on myspace in the hopes of someone seing it.

I live in SF and Astrix was suppose to play a club up hear on Thursday. I was looking forward to it but luckily heard a rumor that he had visa issues and wasn't coming. So I didn't go. I too would of been disappointed if that was the main reason I went to party. It is cool though that they at least gave you guys a replacement. X-noize is an awesome act as well. Not an Astrix though but I would of still been happier then no big psy act at all.


And Astrix is world class producer not just a DJ for those that were curious to why people are mad. X-noize are also great producers just not as popular/well known as Astrix.

I honestly wouldn't have gone if I knew Astrix wasn't going to be there. Although XNoise was cool. I also think Fresh definitely knew before hand that Astrix was going to be a no show. Honestly they had to know xnoise was now coming instead. Hello! Whatever. It's the fuckin rave scene for ya.

Who would of seriously not of went just because astrix wasn't gonna be there? I only went for astrix, but i wasnt not gonna go if i found out a few days earlier he ccouldnt make it. If you let that ruin your night than idk what to tell you.

Stop bitching at the production crew. I do believe they had a whole event to pull and it was more important than being on myspace posting bullitens if as you said, they "didn't" find out only a few hours before his set.

Overall Fresh was great, sucks no astrix but shit happens. Nothing we can do about it now.
