I recieved an e-mail today from Groove Tickets (God how I LOOOOVE Groovetickets, not) that Hard Haunted Mansion was split into two nights. Here is the e-mail:

Although it’s not Groove Tickets’ fault, I still was expecting to see A-Trak, Justice, and The Basement Jaxx in ONE night…now I don’t get to see A-Trak. I didn’t get to see him at Hard Summer because the police and fire marshal shut it down a few months back. Read more about it here. So, I am a little bummed about that, but it seems like they’ve added more artists. Hardfest has also finally selected a location for this rave; it will be at The Shrine auditorium in Los Angeles. GLAD they found a different venue than The Forum, it was way too small. Without further ado, the lineups!

- Deadmau5
- 2ManyDJs
- A-Trak (<3)

HARD Haunted Mansion 10.31.09 Saturday Lineup

I don’t mean to complain (especially since Saturday’s lineup is pretty stacked), but I really was hoping for a one night event that would be jam packed with as many big name DJs as possible. I still haven’t been able to see A-Trak, The Bloody Beetroots or Destructo, and I’ve been following 2ManyDJs (Soulwax) since I was a little kid. Plus, who the hell is Vello Virkhaus, and why is he playing both nights?
Enjoy the promo video!
