Canada was well represented. There were about 30 of us all together down there for year 6, and we wouldn't miss it. Mind you we could drive. Does that preclude Toronto from being considered international? Next year we'll need passports... Maybe then;) We sounded and looked like y'all, silently permeating the bliss. And for some reason we found the random Canadians from other parts in the crowd. But I agree coming across the ocean would have made it quite expensive if it didn't go forward.
While it did feel a titch lighter this year as far as attendance, I agree the numbers seem far more accurate. >Date: Wed, 08 Jun 2005 13:53:13 +0200 >To: 313@hyperreal.org >From: "fabrice Lig" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: Re: (313) Any word on the financial situation? >Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >Like I told to Cyclone already, >I just saw 10 japanese people....and the other 39990 were americans...Few >europeans I've seen were djs too ;-)... >So Its sad in a way, but in another way it means than it will be even >bigger >next week if the festival promotion starts a bit earlier than this year. >I'm sure than europeans were too scary to come and than, the festival was >cancelled...and spend 5 days at submerge or Record time...was a risk to do >the more expensive records shopping ever ;-) ! > >Fabrice Lig> >From: "Cyclone Wehner" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: 313 Detroit <313@hyperreal.org> >Subject: Re: (313) Any word on the financial situation? >Date: Tue, 07 Jun 2005 12:36:31 +1000 > >It seems like there were fewer international tourists this year.
