After hearing a few stories on the island about things getting tougher for music events, venues etc it seems to be the conversation of the April / May rumour mill, with recent added stories adding and fueling the conversation. It's always like this here, and it will continue to be. It may be getting more so, I don't know. There have been a few panicked posts, including ones regarding our cancelling of an event yesterday.

Contrary to a couple of posts, our license is fine, intact, and it's business as usual.

Business owners, promoters and dj's, we're all just gonna have to up our game and stay ahead of this lot I'm afraid. That means what hours you do parties, how big you let them get, how loud you let the dj's play and now, how you word your promotion. It seems now the authorities have (finally!) begun to study social media to find out what's going on and the wording of the definition of the party seems to be causing offence. Avoiding words like 'Festival', 'After Party' etc. for a start seems to be something people are gonna have to take on board.

So after some 'un-forseen circumstances' (See? Choose your words) we are business as normal. Sorry for the incovenience people, and sorry to the promoters who despite great efforts, dedication, passion for what we all do and sheer hard work, had more than just an inconvenience.

Sunday was good fun down here anyway, just saying ;-)
Thanks Dx

its a bit more than other years - not just rumors....in Benirras Elements had to stop their parties, been threaten by authorities and as a consequence I cannot do my Sirenas party at 2000, next door. At Kumharas we can only play chillout this year, warned by authorities and so on.... Im glad U dont have our problems over there and surely ur tips are intelligent, but dont sing victory too soon - season has just started....

I've followed Jefferson for years and he has made some classic records and seems like a really sound guy, with a lot of knowledge eg http://testpressing.org/2010/08/marshall-jefferson-interviewed-a-history-of-house/

Breaks my heart when people I really respect can no longer be arsed or just turn up for the paycheck. Perhaps they reach that point where they're hitting their 50s and not as famous as they were and have to work the 'chicken-in-a-basket circuit' out of necessity. Still that doesn't excuse lazy sets.

He came up to Glasgow a couple of years ago billed as the main dj, but was on at 10pm for a 1 hour set before heading back down to Manchester to play somewhere else. Hate djs that are just trading off their name playing multiple gigs in one night.

Was that the streetrave night with David Morales at SWG3?
 
Chatter that Music On this year might not be as 'jammed' as last...anyone have views on that who went last year and may or may not be going this?
 
mates just told me yesterday they wont follow me to all my parties & will discard some parties in order to recover.
I guess they are brainwashed by the Hype...

i advice them do discard Music on & Hyte :D but i will be in for these after parties (Cova Santa Benimussa or private villa at Es cubells ...)

Yes, why do you think it may be as packed this year....went in mid June was packed and closings day one too. Going to go 2 June I think may not be as packed due to the 2 warm up parties in May, I can see the other months being busy

I don't have the time to explain it in all details, but there are certain indicators that lead me to believe that the overcrowding here might soon be a thing of the past. maybe it still takes a year or so, but I do think there will be changes.

Is this to do with the crowd control measures they have been talking about then?
