I actually dig this concept a lot more to be honest! Manning Bar has quite a decent sound system too. Woo

martyt said on the 18th Sep, 2008

wat a money making crap concept, one love should be ashamed of themselves by doing this, worse idea ive ever seen, shame on you onelove shame on you, why test this crap concept in sydney, do it in melbourne

HungryHippo said on the 18th Sep, 2008

obv could not secure a venue

JayCee99 said on the 18th Sep, 2008

we just couldn't find a suitable venue in sydney so we are bringing quality acts with quality shows look out next year :)

jarrardscott said on the 18th Sep, 2008

why the fuck is hell on with a load of shit electro house artists.

mr_doobi said on the 18th Sep, 2008

WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! as if this is good, nothing beats a festival. it will just be like goin to a club. sydney has gone sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo down hill. NOT HAPPY

macky said on the 18th Sep, 2008

too bad for those who want to see a different variety of artists, now they have to buy seperate tickets for each show!! wat a rip...

mr_doobi said on the 18th Sep, 2008

i am honestly so shocked by this. i cant belive it. IM MOVIN TO MELBOURNE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! such a joke

Spekman said on the 18th Sep, 2008

manning bar ftw

ally_146 said on the 18th Sep, 2008

so what, we pay $45 to see two acts where in other states they pay less than $100 for a festival with all acts??? ridiculous.

blonde_chimbo said on the 18th Sep, 2008

What a waste of time. here i was looking forward to stereosonic FESTIVAL and its nothing but a pathetic way to score promoters a bit of extra money (its not like they fkn dont get enough off us from festivals anyway). honestly. your holding 4 events and y

totemi said on the 18th Sep, 2008

if you dont like you dont have to come. How can you go past the value of these shows. And yes we had venues but in the end, if we cant do the right venues we want, why go and do it? When we come to Sydney in a daytime festival format, we want to do it our

I for one don't mind seeing DJ Hell and Vitalic in intimate surrounds.

angy said on the 18th Sep, 2008

JackT, wanna hit that! bow-chicka-bow-wow

humdingaling said on the 18th Sep, 2008

shrugs if i only wanted to see one artist then...that would be awesome why pay for things you dont want to see =) if i wanted to see all of them...then i am well and truly shafted =\ not much of a festival feel if its just going to be seperate

JackT said on the 18th Sep, 2008

Muli, you always know what to say

Huggz said on the 18th Sep, 2008

Stop your complaining people. There are already so many festivals happening at this time of year. Plus Stereosonic was planned to be on the same day as Global Gathering and probably realised they couldn't compete as they both pull the same crowd. this i

JackT said on the 18th Sep, 2008

Booka Shade at the Enmore - that's cool too. That Gaelic Club show was uber-messy.

stu_jacks88 said on the 18th Sep, 2008

Future purposefully put Global Gatherings on the proposed date of Stereosonic festival in Syd in an attempt to keep Onelove out of the Sydney festival market. Success to Future it seems. The satellite method seems to be the best that could have been vi

nevernever said on the 18th Sep, 2008

lol yeh thats great for the ppl who would rather have a night stuck in a club instead of a day/night festival.....very very dissapointing, why does sydney hav to get stuck with this s**t

DJ_LG said on the 18th Sep, 2008

SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!!!!! They've gotten rid of all the electro garbage so I can go see my fav trance artists for a third of the cost. Hopefully they'll have the main room just for PVD(3hours) and Giuseppe (2hrs) and Infected (2hrs)

Authorised said on the 18th Sep, 2008

FAIL

homebassfriday said on the 18th Sep, 2008

COME TO HOME, we have the BEST line up!!! Paul van dyk and infected mushroom, how can you say no!!!

cassfarrugia said on the 18th Sep, 2008

so shit... this is worst thing i have ever heard

TroyShaun said on the 18th Sep, 2008

haha loving the way this turned out, wouldn't have gone if it was a festival but the line ups are really good, and over two weekends. well done.

The3rdPlumpDj said on the 18th Sep, 2008

wow... for a second i thrt they were gonna do a satellite hook up or somink across each venue... but yeh just dif clubs... ah well i think it doesnt really matter... do you ever get to see all the acts that you would like to see in one fesitval??... ive b

ashy5 said on the 18th Sep, 2008

bullshit..wat a fucken waste of time! had an overall good lineup but to split it up like this...what a fucken joke. get ur shit together its a poor effort

ashy5 said on the 18th Sep, 2008

better line up than GG and harbourlife but noe theyve fucked it!

ehcoroche said on the 18th Sep, 2008

im over the festivals anyway, being able to see who i want in a smaller venue suits me perfectly, booka shade here i come (definitly) and everyone else depends on variables, i was hoping for a sideshow...this should do

shortino said on the 18th Sep, 2008

nup dig it! love it! see your fav act in a good club environment for a real set! what more do you want! seriously guys nice conept! hope you funk up the production seirously! woot!

Dim123 said on the 18th Sep, 2008

So we would of paid $120 to see them all at a festival but pay $200 to see them separately. Ridiculous

babbibelle said on the 18th Sep, 2008

this is what happens when they leave it so late. they make it a whole bunch of clubbing nights at random venues, here i was looking forward to a festival! dodgy as.

dylanlindgren said on the 18th Sep, 2008

fuck yeah... congrats to for this awesome setup... i know it was kind out of their control (not being able to find a venue) but yeahhhhh club night of booka shade vs festival set... club night is the cleeaarrr winner fuck shitty festivals

Elliot G said on the 19th Sep, 2008

even more glad i'm seeing the melb instalment now..

MattyL said on the 19th Sep, 2008

Every time i go to a festival i pay $100 or whatever and i see 2-4 acts all day. Here you can pretty much pick and chose which ones you want to go to and pay half the price. Clubs are so much better to hear artists at as well. If it was a night festiv

giacs said on the 19th Sep, 2008

oh snap Giuseppe Ottaviani and PVD in one place without the shit crowd booom!!!!!!

ayong said on the 19th Sep, 2008

im somewhat supprised to not see Tank as one of SS venues. p.s I LOVE YOU jackT (joins bandwagon)

MC-LOSTY said on the 19th Sep, 2008

BRING ON PVD @ SUBLIME!

naan bread said on the 19th Sep, 2008

I think it's pretty funny that when another festival is announced so many people on this forum are like *yawn*, yet when a festival tries to give you what you want i.e. club atmosphere and your favourite acts in one place, you all still complain... Basica

NebSta7 said on the 19th Sep, 2008

i think you people from syd don't appreciate a good club show... saw pvd twice last year.. once at metro and the other time at kryal castle... he absolutely blew the roof at metro whilst at kryal he was very average... i personally think you guys have sco

laurenborg said on the 19th Sep, 2008

What does Satelite actually mean?

filou said on the 19th Sep, 2008

manning bar? oh hell no! what's the capacity of that place? 300?

crasherboi said on the 19th Sep, 2008

A GREAT LINEUP. but truly appauling organisation. honestly You cant run round town like the queen of F***ing sheba telling all the dedicated festival punters that your gonna feed their need. THEN. decide your gonna use 'an all new sattelite concept"

Stephanie1987 said on the 19th Sep, 2008

Does anyone know the deal with the Enmore Theatre. I'm going to harbourlife and i'm keen to see booka shade, just wondering if anyone knows if i'll make it there in time, or do events there usually finish early?

simongoose said on the 19th Sep, 2008

All you people whinging about this kinda proves the point that not many people go to festivals for the music anymore.... Otherwise you'd all be stoked you get to see your fav acts, in a much more intimate environment, with decent set lengths, HEAPS bett

ambientlounge said on the 19th Sep, 2008

actually this is better concept in all. PvD will be unbelievable at Home, with the right crowd :)

that is sooo gay. Why does every other capital city get the real thing and we get satellite? Gay gay gay.

stereosonic2008sucks said on the 25th Sep, 2008

Honestly, this is a complete disgrace and anyone who is not pissed off about it should think about this from the promoter's persepective. 1. They fucked up by not securing a venue 2. They're now trying to disguise their mistake and sell it to us at double

kirstiejo said on the 26th Sep, 2008

Are these events live or broadcast via satellite? I'm hoping live coz I wana see The Crookers! tell me this is just the name of the events rather than the way we will see them!!!!!!!

Michaelsem said on the 27th Sep, 2008
