    Ive been hearing that this has been canceled due to it being poorly organised. Apparently they have no proper security in place and never actualy contacted the gardai that they would be having an event of this size. The guy who runs co-runs the company made two posts on boards, one as the owner trying to re-assure people and the other pretending to be just a member of the citizen saying he had bought tickets for it.

    I for one will be keeping my money.

    A friend of mine went to buy a ticket today and was told it was cancelled due to licensing issues.

    Dont buy a ticket. It sounds as dodgy as fcuk. One of the guys who is behind it set up an account and has 2 posts.
    One says he is a normal punter and got tickets,

    the other says he is part owner of the company.

    Heard it was being organised by a UCC student alright. Surely if soemone is going to set up acompany to organise this kind of thing they would know a bit better how to set this kind of thing up. Even just telling the guards what the plan is seems like a pretty basic step.
    Heard as well its gonna be cancelled if they dont sell more than 3000 tickets...

    True to form, the 'organiser' neither got a license for the gig nor informed the gardai that throngs of students would be going on the piss near residential estates.

    It was scheduled for the same night as the Eng Ball anyway so you'd have been expecting people to ditch the best night of the year for it...

    The indignity of sharing a bill with the Saw Doctors probably proved too much for Calvin. Shame - I like a lot of his songs.
