Those news come from very far but this summer is probably the worst for psytrance. After many cancellation of festival this summer two big festival had serious problems.
Last week the freaky dragons festival organized by Dragons Hunters in spain was cancelled because of a problem of authorization. The spanish Guardia Civil has injured seriously many peoples who were sitted peacefully, prostesting against the cancellation of the festival. The Guardia Civil evacuate the festival strongly and destroyed the decoration of what would had be one the best festival of the year.
The Shamanik festival had many problems too. Two days before the beggining of the festival the stages where not already setted up, many artists had to cancelled them trips because they didn't receive money in advance and plane ticket...
The festival opened last week, but it's already over...
The organization had serious fight with the security (the Main organizer JP, didn't pay them (not only them), didn't give enough food, not enough good conditions for sleeping, and there was only 60 security guys for more than 3000 people) . The security kidnapped some organizers during severals hours, and also steals many stuffs and strating to racket the stands on the goa market. They also fight some people that came just for music. Finally the Police had to stop the party (for good reasons).
This summer is really bad especially for all the party goers, who gets fly ticket, presales, holidays and who finally get no ferstival.
It's too bad and I think that 2008 will be very hard for the Trance in Europe. I feel shame because the both organization of Shamanik and Freaky dragons are french like me, and they are not enough professional to cancel those events before all that sh.t happen.
