Canberra’s festival kings at Kicks Entertainment have announced there will be no opportunity to be spat on by a Raider in Commonwealth Park this year.
They are, however, promising a ding dong 2014.

Canberra, the city with nothing to do for young people wanting to have some fun strikes again.
There’s plenty to do for young people in Canberra if you think beyond music festivals. For example, most cities are lucky to have one skatepark, we have five and one of them is the largest in the southern hemisphere. We’re also getting the Vans Warped tour come through this year apparently.
Yes there’s cars to burn out and wheelies to be done and don’t forget to knock over a servo or two.
Feeling adventurous, then there’s vandalism to do in the parks, uproot some trees, graffiti something.
Canberra’s a smorgasbord.

Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to call my travel agent about my next overseas holiday. That’s my job as a grown-up, because I don’t expect somebody else to arrange my fun for me. Try it yourself, if you can find time between living your fake life on Twitface and sulking about your real life.
The fact you felt the need to prove yourself to a stranger on the internet says it all.

Love it when two idiots argue. This one tells the kid to organise her own fun after admitting he/she uses a travel agent. Let me guess – for your umpteenth trip to Bankgok? No? Bali then? Typical hypocritical Canberra moron.

How is it a failure of marketing, you don’t exactly need much effort to make a bunch of s**t heads want to go some place to get s**t faced. Nor prompt a bunch of creepy middle aged pervs hoping to recapture their youth to spend the afternoon chasing scantily clad guys and girls.
It’s because Josh Dugan has moved away and Blake Ferguson is apparently getting off the drink. Two of the festival’s biggest supporters.

Organise your own festival, or move somewhere else.

Wow – you learn something new every day! I didn’t know that Kicks was a governmental events promoter!
*end sarcasm*
How is it Canberra’s fault that a promoter with a successful music festival on its hands is apparently unable to organise a pissup in a brewery (or a music festival in a park, if you prefer)?
There must be another reason behind cancelling Foreshore – even if the line-up isn’t as great as previous years, thousands of people will still shell out big bucks to go. I can’t quite believe that the promoter is willingly forgoing a pile of profit just because the line-up won’t be top shelf.
