Provided they dont fill up to an over stacked bill w/ not enough time for everyone to pay and those playing run longer than their given time limit. wink I'm all for lots of people playing.. provided people know what their time limit is, follow that and keep things moving smoothly. And who ever is putting on the event... should be willing to cut the PA should someone feel like taking more time than given.

Nobody in this scene wants to hear fringe music.

Seems like an awfully specific reference to a very particular event. Haha.

He's talking about the time Nullsleep filibustered everybody in the Intergalactic Chip Music Senate by producing a simultaneous Wave/Noise Channel dissonance that lasted several days after which several planets had to be re-aligned.

Also, The Incredible Master E was there, too.

Unless he's talking about some other event I don't remember.

Promoters must inform their artists of the time of their set's ending well in advance and remind them while the artist is playing, close to the set's end time. That's how it is dealt with. Cutting the sound is disrespectful.

Leave the people organizing to their jobs, they know what they are doing.

Could not understand why that would ruffle someone's feathers. Seeing the same performer more than once in a span of a couple days is less attractive than it may seem. UNLESS it's the Ungrateful Dead.
