Yeah, let's do an offical "Global Gathering Festival vs. Ultra Music Festival" comparison. They should be easy to compare because so many variables are the same -- both are in the same park, in the same month, cater to similar audiences, etc. For starters we need a side-by-side lineup comparison...
I bet it will quickly become apparent that UMF > GGF |

Grasshopper: who really gives a ?
If we see more larger events in the states who really cares about its origin? Would it really make you go if they change the name?
Jesus christ.
You're still seeing the exact same festival in the UK right?
Then what is their to lose really. I bet you also hate the fact that the love parade is doing the SF shows now too?
Things evolve man. Evolution. Darwin. Get with it.
:haha: |
I don't mind big festivals -- heck I love big festivals. I am merely opposed to the scumbag promoters who think that they can throw a Global Gathering when in fact they are not fit to run a hotdog stand. If Godskitchen were throwing this event it would definitely be much better and I would probably go.
For just that reason I have (almost) always voiced my total support for Loveparade SF -- it's the real thing! |

You can go if you want. But I won't give my money to the sleaze-bags who are responisble for this crap! It's perfectly clear to me that the promoters who are organizing this event are only in it for the money! They clearly don't care about the music, the people, the movment, the technology, or the culture of "Global Gathering." They just want to borrow the brand name and rip off as much cash as they can before they ruin Global Gatherings hard-earned reputation.
Global Gathering of course deserves to lose their reputation if this thing fails, because they obviously permitted this farce and they are probably getting a healthy cut of the profits... |
John, you know I love ya man... but give me a freaking break... Are you serious?!?
First off, Godskitchen must have let them use the name, so in a sense it is the same gathering just in a different location. I highly doubt they are ripping off anything!
Second, it must be nice to live in your world where everything is for the passion of the music and no one has a desire for money. So lets break down your argument: "It's perfectly clear to me that the promoters who are organizing this event are only in it for the money! They clearly don't care about the music, the people, the movement, the technology, or the culture of "Global Gathering." Ok so by this point anyone who makes money off a show or cares about making money off a show is a sleaze-bag. SO the owner of a club that lets a promoter hold an event is a sleaze-bag because he is not going to let the promoter HAVE the space just for the love of the music! And the promoter is a sleaze-bag because he is trying to bring people trough the door so he can pay the DJ and have money to pay the venue. He cares about the money believe me... Oh ya and the DJ, he is a sleaze-bag because he wants to be paid to come play and for his time in producing tracks. So everyone involved in the the music, the movement, the technology, or the culture is a sleaze-bag except for us, the fans! Wait I know some pretty sleazy fans so looks like we are all screwed dude! Looks like you are the only one out of the whole lot that is left unsoiled. Ya, must be nice to live in your world! It is just going to suck when everyone stops being a sleaze-bag and you are forced to make your own music from stuff that you produce while wearing hemp clothes because no one is in it for the money! And let me tell you we will all be lining up for that!
I for one am for any promoter who brings me the acts that I want to see. AND I for one will go to any show and give my money to any promoter who does bring those DJs. In my world that makes me a fan of the DJ not and elitist who sees the world in a way that is beneath him. My view of course is subject to change when you can find one DJ out of the top 100 who will fly down here and put me a show on in my living room because of his love for the music and the people! |

That might be difficult. But there are in fact plenty of people out there who don't just care about the money. Is there any other way I can convince you of that? |
