To all of our loyal patrons, Dusk Till Dawn Events, GSP, & Nightbreed Productions would like to extend our sincere apologies regarding the unfortunate violation of our event and our rights by the City of Columbus Police.
As most of you are already aware we went to great lengths to plan and execute our event. An event that was sanctioned by the City of Columbus, The Division of Fire and all agencies affiliated with regulating such events. Afterlife went to great expense to insure that all regulations were met. Some of our expenses included the hiring of three (3) City of Columbus fire inspectors for the entire event along with all applicable permits relating to this event. We also incurred the expense of fifteen (15) trained security professionals with the goal of providing a safe environment for our guests. Our patrons were well behaved and law abiding. In fact there were no arrests or incidents requiring any law enforcement personnel action.
The event was scheduled to run till 6AM. We as the organizers of the event feel that we were victims of harassment and our rights to provide entertainment for our patrons has been violated.
No reason has been provided to us as of this date as to why we were closed down at 2:30AM. We have begun the process of asking questions and seeking remedies for the City’s actions.
We plan on a very special event that will show our loyal customers that we are here to stay and there will be many more events to follow. We ask that you understand the early termination of our party was at the order of the Columbus Police and we had no choice but to comply.
We also ask that you understand that we will take any and all steps necessary through the legal process to ensure that this never happens again. Our events are attended by people from all over the country. We will not allow one unfortunate situation stop our business of providing a safe and fun environment for our clients.
Please stay tuned for our plans for the next event and know that all who were in attendance will be shown VIP treatment.
Please check back to [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] & [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] to keep up to date for our plans for future events. We will also keep you abreast of our ongoing communication with Columbus Police Department and the City of Columbus about the issues regarding the event of 10/22/05.
Get a lawyer to write a letter asking for damages and an explanation as to why the event was shut down. Put them on blast. Have every correspondance posted on your website so the people can see what a$$holes they were and if they even had a right to shut it down and what reason that was for.
