Damn... I was hoping there would be someone good to entice me to go to Sydney again (I LOVE Parklife in Sydney - Coldcut last year were AMAZING!) but that line up isn't worth the time, money, nor effort.

I don't blame them for putting the price up heaps. last year was packed. depends on the elasticity of demand I suppose (given fixed supply).

but given there was prob excess demand last year of course you would put up price.

It has to be a minge. My studies have shown that dubstep attracts males in an almost identical manner to fannies. You seen the sausage fest that is any dubstep night? Only a vagina could call the attention of so many men, and so few women (obviously excluding the lezzers but).

i'm not saying it's not full of dudes with beards wearing hoodies and cammo shorts (not that i'm a dude with a beard who wears hoodies and cammo shorts and loves dubstep, but in my defence the first three predate dubstep's existence), but seriously, you do go to dnb nights, right?
