Homelands is cancelled due to a few unforeseen circumstances but will probably come back in the New Year.
Some of the acts are likely to still come out and play various club dates anyway. This is being worked out now. Agent Mad, who were one of the teams behind the event, are planning another cool party in Melbourne on the same weekend (the 9th of Dec) with some of the acts - rumoured are Green Velvet, Peace Division and those Australian favourites the Space DJz. This should be very, very worthwhile. I imagine these acts may play other dates around the country. Laurent Garnier is still coming to Australia - and I have confirmed this with the Melbourne promoter orchestrating his tour (Hardware). He was set to do just Sydney Homelands, not Melbourne Homelands, all along, and was then set to play a Hardware party and the latter party remains unaffected. The confusion about this arrangement arose from the fact that the ads or press releases applicable to Sydney Homelands were placed in both the Sydney and Melbourne press. And so Laurent will still be playing Hardware 17 with Cari Lekebusch at the Melbourne Docks. It's a stripped down live show - should be fantasique. Check out the street press for more info. As I say, the Sydney end for Laurent was still being confirmed as of Friday - likely to be just a venue switch - but there should be more info on this and any other dates for the other acts on Monday/Tuesday. I am sure it will work out just fine. I am looking into the Surburban Knight one. >I guess most people know that homelands is cancelled. >This means no laurent garnier or suburban knight. >Does anybody know if they might come down anyway . > >sam
