Wrong, stop pulling information out of your ass. Wait, pointless request.

Just to make things clear; Ben never played for his own flight ever. He did however, play for free first time around. This is what we call appreciating the value in self promotion to make a name for yourself (as a DJ)

2008 was his 3rd time back to serbia, and he gets paid $500 / gig on average, multiple that by 9-10 gigs and voila 5000 dollars, out of which 1200 is flight, and 800 accomodation for a month. How much DJ pay is that?

Darn, looks like a DJ that has made a name for himself, and now he is brought back on demand ;)

PS: You are just bitter you can't collect your 20,000 dollar 'management fee'... and you say apex is about giving back! HA HA :love:

Dear rave promoters

money hungry

Don't tell me it's not true (except a handful of people)

This is why no Apex sucks: the loss of promoter drama to enjoy on FnK.8)


Ah, maybe we'll get some good stuff anyway.

we dont have that demographic in canada, dance music is not mainstream or popular here and because of that you will never get events like those in europe because there is no profit in it.

Right, and you know this because you spends long periods of time in Europe? Those small events that have "no profit in it" arent advertised on a large scale. Hence why you dont hear about it online and in magazines. Two parties in this region with locals, all had a turnout of over 5000 people in a period of two days, im pretty sure they made money... even at 4$ entry.

Dont tell us that European promoters dont throw small parties... bullshit.

This is like the Grinch stole Apex, but the spirit still goes on! Bickering and random flaming continues!

I'm sorry, but there's too much laughable shit that goes on at Apex NOT to laugh at it.

why do people take partying so seriously?

Just a party dude. I'm just stating my observations of said party.

and btw, why would someone laugh at someone throwing broken glowsticks on someone just because they are new to raving and are having a blast... so what if they are using glowsticks...

That's always been my attitude. I don't go around breaking open kids' glowsticks. Usually I can't stand people like that.

That's not to say they aren't there.

i can't wait till i'm a pro veteran raver!!!!

What, you mean when you get sick and tired of all the drama shit, and learn to just sit back and enjoy the show?

OH NO WAIT THAT'S NO GOOD, NOT ALLOWED TO DO THAT, MAKES YOU AN ELITIST VETERAN RAVER.

Just a party, sorry if I observe certain things that happen at it. I'm not saying any one person is more justified than the other at being there, I'm just saying what happens. And yeah, I fall into one of the stereotypes myself. So? Everybody goes through the same stages. The point is not to get so caught up in sectioning yourself off from everybody else at the party that you just don't have a good time.

Damn... a lot of useless replies not really amounting to anything of value or nothing that will move this forward... And I'm just talking about the last page let alone all 6 pages of what I assume is even more unsubstantiated, uneducated responses.

Apex ain't happening... shit happens... live with it... Have a BBQ at the beach or something.

RAVE FOR LIFE.

How can you make fun of her for collect $20 000 management fee for throwing a rave, when your showing off that your friend made $5000 for djing at a rave.

They are both capitalists, except that one is good at it.

Ben keeps on coming down on Avana for taking a "Management fee". If that's a problem for you, then how dare you charge to DJ. Why should you be paid and she shouldn't?

"you say apex is about giving back! HA HA"

Then your friend can't ever say that he's doing it for the music, since this post has made it painfully obvious the only reason he does this is for fame and money.

Calm down, bring back the holier then thou attitude's and realize: Having to explain to an electronic music fourm why you are a big name, pretty much guarantee's you are a nobody.

big or small parties it dosn't matter, the tastes' of europeans and canadians are different, you can't even get a 400 person banger in vancouver anymore.

serbia is a third world country, they don't know any better shit if i had to worry about land mines and nationalists id dose up and listen to shitty music every weekend too.
