last year i spent a ton of money on movement related stuff. my gf got a shrit, we bought 4 buttons, the dvd, and the double CD. i would have spent more if they had other stuff i wanted. i think it would be dope if they just offered more cheaper stuff for people to possibly buy in order to support like a $5 CD that you could only get there with tracks by the unknown artists who are playing. thats whats up.

I completely agree with what you're saying but I counter it all could be done if everyone paid 5 bucks a day and accomplish what it needs to. Hell, a beer down there is 5 bucks.

I'd pay $15 per day Putting an entrance fee on it could result in a drop in attendance. Only the real fans of the music will go and many of the "raver kids" just looking for some music to practice their breakdancing skills to would shy away from it (possibly). If they still attract a big crowd then I would speculate that big business would perk up and much of this music would start to be considered viable (from a business stand point). Could it be a much belated catalyst for the electronic music revolution that was supposed to happen years ago? Would radio stations start playing this music when they realized that thousands of people from all over the world were actually paying to go hear it live - in Detroit? I think that as long as the festival is free - it's still not paid much attention to beyond specialized press. Anyone understand what I'm saying?

I'd be happy to travel 4000 miles and still pay $15 - worth every penny - I'd rather secure the future than try to appeal to the masses, us Limeys aren't such tight asses :) M ----- Original Message ----- From: "Matt MacQueen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: "313" <313@hyperreal.org>; "Martin Dust" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, January 26, 2005 9:41 PM Subject: Re: (313) No Movement 2005? > On Jan 26, 2005, at 3:36 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > >> at $15/day you would see apprx an 80% drop in attendance > > I concur.
