Can't remeber who that was > though. You could be refering to me. I got an email from someone who handles the booking for at least one artist on the tour. I had heard from several people other than this person that the tour was in fact not happening. I did get some confirmation that some of the people that were initially listed as doing the tour were only doing the event at the WMC. I also heard that some of the dates were cancelled because some rave promoters had backed out. I heard the LA show was for certain, but the line up seems shakey from what I heard. The tour may in fact happen but it doesn't look like it will have the stellar line up that was originally posted. I heard that Optical isn't on the tour, and neither is Technical Itch/Decoder. I'm not sure if Dom & Roland is going to be on it, if so definitely check him out! > > There were rumors that the tour was cancelled, but it seems like the lineup > > has only been reduced to a 6-8 per city.

It was always supposed to be > a rotating line-up type of thing. Well the website was pretty misleading then (at least at the time I viewed it). I heard that it keeps getting updated, but I haven't gone back to check. > The line-up for the Toronto date is mediocre, with Ed Rush (and maybe > 1.8.7) being the only ones I'd care to see. Not that it really matters > since it's at fucking Industry, so I'd refuse to go even if the line-up Ed Rush is really good! I have no interest in 1.8.7. Call me a skeptic, but I think the line up will end up being kind of weak. I hope I am wrong. _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?
