DarkPsy: I dont know why you do defende so much UpDown...and it doens't mater, but stop licking their boots... it's discusting

U tell me to shut up my mouth... but u are the one who needs to shut up, because i know what i talk about..

U are defending ppl that made a fake festival, made ppl spend money in traveling, GIVIN THEIR MONEY buying tickets, booked vacations to this week and see them reduced to nothing!!

I know that ppl phoned to the responsable guy, and he just told "We dont have money... i cant do anything about the tickets.." and disconnected the phone! ... And thats the true!

And i know that some ppl left the festival without being refunded!!... they will send the money by mail, no?

So.. if i talk, its about what i know.. and what u know?.. if u are defending them with hope to be booked in the future.. i dont know if after all this desorganization they will do another party.. specially because they dont pay back!

This kind of thing and people that destroys the Portuguese reputation.....
Shame on u Up&Down!
Fake festival artists on line up never booked,no showers on the festival: my friends were there and they say was very sad 30 shops paiyed money to be there and buy a lot of Food to sell during the festival and now what they will do ? yesterday some people in anger beat some sound guys because they try to put out the electricall equipment and there was no security to solve the story so the sound workers were beated and even worse the "cheque" debit note they receive was without cover, so they went away even without money to eat ot put petrol on the trucks....what is this up&down??? People like u should never again try to be involved in the trance scene. Same to u Darkspy u should close your mouth instead of say bull...!

Well what a disaster!

I have been asked by Isratrance's beloved moderator Justin Chaos to enlighten you further with his confirmation of the festival's cancellation. So there you have it - straight from a booked artist's mouth.

It would seem that this org had good intentions, but like so many before them, could not pull it off.

A pity for all involved ....

As many others, me and brother Fluxo, were booked with our two projects Chilled C'Quence and Zero Sequence (Chill-Out and Trance). By the time we got there to play Chilled C'Quence, they told us not to plug our gear. "...The fest is cancelled from now on." ...They said!
This happened on monday afternoon!

Of course all parties have a risk but, do you know mathematics? With this announced line up how many people would be needed to cover the expenses? Even with 70€ tickets...
Ok ... I can't figure it out also, 48 live acts on the main floor and only 6 are portuguese. Not to mention the DJ's and the chill-out area. Plane tickets, food, accomodation, cachets, etc...

We can have all the good will in the world, but to make a party like this one,it's not enough, our head must stay on the ground... not over the clouds!

Pitty for the trance lovers!!!          "The Light Children Are Awakening!"

ZeroSequence,is a good question,how many people the organization would be needed to cover all expenses,maybe they don´t think on this...but for sure they needed hundreds of people to cover all expenses...its is to much costs...but is very sad to see this all things happing,i don´t what to say...

What the organizers go to say to us,and special to that people that bought ticket??!!

I haven't posted in isratrance since Portugal section was banned. I'm posting now because I feel very uncomfortable about this.
I went to the festival and came yesterday, 2 days after its beginning. About 300 to 400 ticket buyers, I was told. The great majority was foreigners (French, Spanish, Brazilians, Americans to name a few). Most of them are here to stay almost a month due to the Freedom festival that starts (or was supposed to start) 1 week after this festival end.

Now let's got back 1 day in time. I was at the dancefloor and meanwhile I met this guy who told me he is a friend of CPU and that CPU was left to his own at Lisbon airport. No one went there to pick him up. I couldn't believe in what he was telling me. Later on that day, after knowing the festival was cancelled, another guy confirmed me that CPU wasn't the only one that had happened this.
The staff working there were good guys and hard workers. Don't blame them. They had to travel more than 300 km to Lisbon and back to bring the artists to the festival (Oporto's airport is less than 100 km from the festival). More, the party organizers (at least the big boss) didn't show up at the festival.

The feeling was GOOD. Believe me. We were few but the spirit was there. And it was this feeling that almost forced me to write all this.

IF U DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO SOMETHING RIGHT, ASK SOMEONE NEXT TO YOU TO DO IT FOR YOU OR DON'T DO IT AT ALL.

This one is for the organizers who managed to disappoint everyone and everything with their incompetence.

This was really bad to Portugal, to Trance and to me.
I really hope Freedom Festival can compensate all this.

PS: If u really needed 7000 ticket buyers why a dancefloor that doesn't cope with more than 2000? And why the heck was the chill 4 km away from the festival?

PSS: Almost missing some credits. Great lives from Tikal and Perplex. There were other good artists but i don't know the names.

imho
what: Organizers from this festival should at least provide free tickets to other festivals in europe to those who payed...

how: arranging with other organizers a way to put People's names on the list

This needs a solution.           cna't find it

Despite the Organization and the reasons for closing down the fest very sad. Would be really nice to think also in all those people that can not get refund on their inminent flighttikets to PT or that have to remain in Portugal for a few days more as was their initial plan.So if anyone can organize an event this weekend and provide some hapiness just do it. I was supposed to play on the main floor friday night 12.00 till 3am and pass there the whole weekend.
Travel Agency confirmed that the Flight tickets that UPDOWN booked are still valids (may be updown can not get refunds either). and like mine I imagine than also other artists' ticket will still be valids.... It's all I can think to recover a smile.

hello.

i just waking up after the weekend in portugal!

verry sorry to read that this festival got cancelld in the middle of it!

the fault here its not just of the updown crew guys!!!
its also of alot of guys that tried all the time to make bad name for this festival..i traveled before this gig in some contries in europe..and ppl told alot of weird stuff on this of this festival like.."this festival will not be" the artists that got booked will not show up there" "who will come to 11 days for festival"
so someone did a" good job to put leg for this festival" also!!!!
im not say that updown crew was perfect in all what need in the organization of it but they had so much problems that no human been ken fix...

what i can say that when i came there also we was ..mechanix,cpu,black&white,puzzle,perplex,danger,and some more artists that came after...

updown guys seems to be verry nice guys that try to do something over from what they can...but from what i saw they tried really hard.and they host us with warm hands(drivers,food,hotel...)i had some complains before about the money and stuff but in the end i got the money and i hope all the artists got also..and the ppl that came there to party will come back safe!
i verry sorry that its got cancelld cause theis guys verry nice ppl but they lost aloooooooot of money if they canceld it it was i know that it was the last option to do!
i hope everyone there will feel only good!
and all the ppl will resolve the problem with this promoters...after all its not easy for both sides...

maybe next time ......

love&light.

eldad.
