So what you are proposing is a festival.

I`m all for it, but, an event of 50,000 is unlikely, not for free.
Cos you need security, a lot of it, and you are looking at about 60-100 quid per guard, per day, and roughly 100 guards.

That`s basic off the cuff figures.

Licensing, is the most important.

Exodus set the precedent for running the first free, legal festival, and getting a license, especially for a real big event is virtually impossible without masses of cash, various residents and council permissions etc.

I`d like to talk about it, but I don`t think techno alone can support something this large in this country.

However something a bit smaller and more realistic, with maybe 10, 000 max capacity, is more manageable.
true is the whole reason i say it would need a sponsor.
this year im playing in estonia at a street rave in august. we have a promotion truck with my freinds from uk and estonia and a lot of big names playing for free,it will be a 2 day fesstival last year it pulled 70,000 people .why cant this happen in the uk. ? anyway its not about numbers i was just hypothysising(cant spell dat ) so to speak.alls im trying to encourage is somthing thats diffrent, i would like to see somthing like this happen. ;) its seems the guys abroad are kiking our ass wen it comes down to these sort of things.and fairplay to them to . :clap:

im hearing you steve. ;) anyways like i say i posted this to see if any labels etc would be interested everything else for now is not an issue.i need to no whether it would be worth going for it. ;)
