According to this: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=62837789&postcount=33 , Ross is the co-owner of the promotion company behind the event. Why has he posted as a nobody who just bought a ticket here?

Was just told by someone I know in Curraheen Park this gig will not be happening there. Apparently they could have the venue when the dog track is not open but they switched dates and promoted a Thursday when the track is also open. IMRO and Gardai were down their backs this week so it will not be happening there.

Ok, just to try and settle this a little....I phoned Ticketgroup earlier (who I got my tickets from) and they said that this gig is definitely not a scam and as far as they were concerned the gig is still going ahead as they have not been told otherwise by the promoter!!

As well as that, if you bought the tickets from them (Ticketgroup) and in the event that the gig is cancelled (like any other event) they do give a full refund! Lets just see what happens guys, could be all talk!!! Gossip is as good advertisement as any!!!

This more than likely means that they dont know as thet havent been in contact with the promoter (and vice versa) but I was talking to Curraheen Dog Track today and they said they will not allow the gig on their grounds.

I'd guess the organisers are running around frantically at the mo trying for another venue if possible at this late stage. Dont know of any other venue available that could or would want to take up to 5000 students.

It's a bit of a strange pairing though is it not?

I was talking to the people organising this event the other day. All i can say is fair play to them, wish i had there balls!! I think it’s kind of funny the way people think it’s a scam though... First of all why would they put there company name behind this if it wasn't true!! They would prob be in jail at this stage! Don’t think people realise the amount of trouble they would be in if it wasn’t ''Calvin Harris''... Also why would he post it in his ''myspace'' if it was spoof??? Also the saw doctors have this on there page?? I guess there spoofing as well? Also why would ticketgroup.ie and HMV sell tickets for this if the acts weren't confirmed?? I think people need to get behind the students that are organising this!!!! This is massive and i would like to wish them the best of luck, i think cork needs this and i hope they organise more concerts like this one in the future!!

Firstly I would like to welcome new users bobcork10 and Jenny_Q19 to boards.ie. It great to have a good and fair discussion and I for one do not find it anyway suspicious that your only reason for being on these forums is to talk up this event!!!! Seriously! ;-)

As I said before Im not giving out just leaving a fact that Curraheen said it wont be happening there. It could be a good event for those into Calvin Harris / Saw Doctors.

I dont like to see students (or anyone) possibly loosing €30 each or not getting what they paid for.

Its a great shame and very worrying that the organisers were able to hype up the event so much on these forums but have remained silent since this came up. An update would be a sign of professionalism even if its bad news.

It has been confirmed that this event is cancelled, shock horror
