Needs new venue.

9 months before the event...

[gaypalmsprings]

It should be Sat & Sun - not Fri & Sat. I hate to think of the traffic on a Friday.

[Bons222000]

Needs new venue? I thought the venue for this was pretty perfect. Getting on the train and Metroing it home for free was awesome.

[bemerritt]

in gary we trust

Either a new venue or a new layout of the stages. Sound bleed was horrible at this previous one.

[avhua]

After experiencing HARD Summer 2009 at the Forum I could thoroughly enjoy this venue. I haven't had any issues with LA State Park.

I like the corner stage with the train running by. Where else does that happen? Maybe I'm still a child at heart and like that kinda shit, but whatever. I say go back to two stages, and blast that shit like a true rave. Having 4 stages is nice and all but not if you can barely hear the stage your at, AND have sound bleed.

Tickets on sale Jan 14

HARD attendees call in sick and get there early.

New onsale date is 1/21. Guess they didn't want to compete with Coachella.

DestructoHARD Gary Richards
Just booked one of my biggest heroes in Electronic music. He influenced everyone. Can't wait to bring this mad genius back #HARDSUMMER

he then retweeted oizo lol.

aphex twin?

[spence]

Can't wait to bring him back makes me this it is not Aphex Twin, considering HARD has never booked him before. One can wish though. God I hope I am wrong.

So it looks like tickets go on sale 1/20 for this? There are .50 cent tickets available on flavor right now for anyone with a coupon code, someone tweet Gary and ask nicely haha.

[tmac]

oh wow

[RickeyinLA]

I love it at this park and I'm 7 Gold Line stops away. Watch it sell out quickly now.

[JorgeC]

tickets are on sale a day early. $99 plus $12ish in fees and $4.50 for delivery. You get 2 separate tickets, so you should just buy now and if you don't like the lineup or only like 1 day you can dump the other one since the prices go up. Last year it didn't sell out til the day off, but the door price was like $75 or $80.

I didn't want to start a new thread, but since it's HARD related thought i'd throw this in here. Has Jack Beats ever played LIVE? I wanna go to the Wiltern show. Oliver and A-trak are a bonus, but mostly or Jack Beats. Is Flavorus the only site to grab tickets from? I'd rather not do Will Call.

[tmac]

it is the first gig for the jack beats live setup

[JorgeC]

it is the first gig for the jack beats live setup

Cool. I understood that it was his first US LIVE date, i didn't realize it's his first LIVE date ever, should be fun. Buying my ticket next Friday. Hopefully they don't up the price before then. The $30 floor/$25 balc for the first price level seems high to me.

[tmac]

oops, my bad, it could be just the first live performance in the US

[heyeric]

on sale tomorrow

It is really weird that it is listed as the "live debut performance" for the L.A. show, because there in another "live debut performance" in NYC a week earlier, also put on by Hard. I think they are trying to sell all of these upcoming shows as the first live performance in that specific part of the world. I'm very curious about what it will be though. A group that is promoting one of the shows in Europe said this: http://www.facebook.com/tuesdayclub....18457638192812 which makes it seem like it will just be a cool light set-up, but I would love it if somehow they were working actual instruments in there, similar to what Chase and Status did.

They also posted this:
