HARD WARS UPDATE

Saturday 15th March, 2008 (9pm - 7am)
Venue details - call 1902 262 522 after 6pm on the night

The Hard Wars team would like to advise all our patrons, both ticket holders and potential customers that we are signing a contract on a new venue tomorrow, Wednesday the 12th March, 2008.

The venue is only 10mins away from our Original venue in Liverpool and will have a capacity for just over 2,000. The party will be running all night from 9pm onwards

This means we are reducing the amount of available tickets, and in turn we can guarantee this party will now FULLY sell out.

The venue details will be released at 6pm on the night of the event by calling 1902 262 522, and if you were ready to travel to Liverpool, you will be pretty close to our new venue.

Further information on the new venue will be sent out with our emails and will be loaded to the web.

Help spread the word, and if you don't already have a ticket, get one quick, they won't last long!!!

Prepare yourself and your friends for what will be the biggest, baddest, loudest and most insane HARD WARS ever.

We did it Outdoors in 2005, we did it Indoors in 2006, we took a break in 2007 (to let the Scattered boys do their stuff . . . .SCOOOOOTER!!!) and now in 2008, we’re back! The Hard Wars goliath wakes from its slumber with more fury, more intense power than ever before.

An almost 18 month wait has given the HARD WARS team extra time to create what will be the biggest HARD WARS party ever. The name says it all – LASER WARS. The most powerful laser systems available, completely tearing the fark out of the Whitlam Leisure Centre. You like lasers? We got lasers. STACKS OF THEM. Liquid cooled, argon fuelled madness. To add to the sheer insanity of the Laser Wars installation, we will be selling LASER SPECS in the Merch stall. Wear these specs throughout the night, and you will witness what can only be described as a mind melting laser explosion.

So we hear you like it loud . . we got you covered. Jeremy’s TURBO rig will be in full force, the same phenomenal set up we had at the SCOOTER gig in November. Wall shaking, ceiling rattling turbo sound .. .ALL YOUR BASS BELONG TO US!!! 

Lighting from BLM, what we’re talking about here is intelligent, interactive, crowd scorching action. The BLM boys know how to brighten up a room, and we’ve given them the biggest room ever to play with. The biggest Basketball Stadium in NSW. Expect a lighting storm like no other, installed and operated by the guys that have been doing this shit for almost 20 years.

ANNOUNCING AN AUSTRALIAN FIRST
The Hard Wars team are proud to announce that our main stage will be surrounded by what can only be described as the most intense and largest inflatable video screens in Australia. Measuring a giant 6 metres wide and 4 metres tall these inflatable beasts will be positioned on either side of the specially constructed main stage. Our video technicians will be beaming all the best computer generated video, live party feeds and more onto the screens, and the images will work in unison with our staggering laser show. To say this is an Australian first is to also say, you have never seen anything like this before. Prepare your eyeballs for a visual meltdown.

Venue – The Whitlam Leisure Centre – Your Leisure is our Pleasure
What needs to be said about this amazing entertainment venue? Do we need to lay out all the facts to convince you how insane this place is? We probably don’t need to, but hell we may as well. We got the goods. Right so we’re talking the biggest Basketball Stadium in NSW, but we’re not playing Basketball!!! We’re here to party, to dance like maniacs, to chat and chill, and The Whitlam Leisure Centre is the perfect venue for that. We’ve got a comfortable capacity on the main dance floor for over 4,000 people. We’ve got giant grandstand seating (that punters can actually sit in), we’ve got two other awesome music arenas, one open age and one over 18. We’ve got a ceiling height that allows for the most dramatic lasers, lighting and of course pyrotechnics (remember SCOOTER?). We’ve got 2 over 18 bar areas, we’ve got outdoor chill areas on both sides of the centre. To be honest, we reckon we’ve got the ultimate venue. Hell, we’ve even got super cheap parking, and it’s security patrolled for your safety.

TICKETS
So you wanna come and party with us, cool! Now we just gotta sort you with a ticket. And you’ll be happy to know, like previous Hard Wars, we’re bending over backwards to give you the best possible ticket price. For what we’re offering, we could probably charge $60, $70 or $80 and it’d be fair. But we’re not doing that. We wanna sell this bad boy out, we want the max capacity we can get, and to do that, we’re offering a ticket price NO ONE ELSE can match. Believe that!!!

If you want a super cheap ticket, we’ll suggest you go for our Early Bird option. At $35 + bf per ticket, you’re saving $20 on the standard ticket price of $55 + bf. Not only is that a farkin brilliant deal, but we’re not limiting the early birds, we’re not saying “get one before it sells out”. What we are doing, and we always do it is offer the early birds right up to 4 weeks before the event. That gives you heaps of time to get a ticket. But, it could sell out, Hell yeah it could sell out. We think it will sell out. So don’t wait to get your ticket. We’ve got a capacity and we’re going to sell that many tickets. It’s a simple fact this event will sell out.

Over 18 Bar areas – Alcohol available
What would a mega party be without some “drinks with friends” If you’re over 18, come on over to the Alcohol area, fully sectioned off and offering a perfect view of the madness of the main arena. We’ll be selling standard drinks and some special HARD WARS concoctions. Photo ID required.

OFFICIAL HARD WARS TSHIRT and MERCHANDISE
We have just released the new Hard Wars t-shirt, featuring the new "appropriate" slogan for Hard Wars . . . .GO HARD. Only 100 shirts are being printed and you will be able to buy one in the following size at HARD WARS on the Merchandising Stall Available sizes
Girls sizes 8, 10 and 12 / Guys sizes Small, Medium, Large and Extra Large

SCOTT BROWN
THE WORLD'S NUMBER 1 HARDCORE DJ : EVOLUTION RECORDS

Voted the world's Number One Hardcore DJ, Hard Wars is proud to welcome back Scott Brown for another earbashing. The owner of Evolution Records and Evolution Plus, Scott is responsible for anthems that have touched generations of ravers - from the old skool days of Now Is The Time and The Rezerection Anthem (Do what ya like) to Nu Skool anthems like Elysium Plus, Definition of a Bad Boy, Gang Bang Society, Neckbreaker and Boomstick. He tours the world constantly playing everywhere there's a hardcore scene, such as Switzerland, Canada, America, Australia, Hong Kong and Japan. His diversity as a DJ and a producer allows him to be one of the very few UK DJ's capable of playing at a UK mega-event like Slammin' Vinyl or HTID one night, and then jumping on a plane to play at a massive gabber party in The Netherlands the next night. Despite his world #1 ranking he's one of the most down to earth people in the international scene, and is easily the most recognised name in the Hardcore movement. Without question, Scott Brown is one of the hardcore elite, and a Godfather of the Hardcore scene. Do not miss Scott as he absolutely tears it up at HARD WARS!

DJ NEOPHYTE
THE MOST RECOGNISED GABBER DJ IN THE WORLD
NEOPHYTE RECORDS : THE NETHERLANDS

The man. The legend. One of the most famous and prolific performers and producers in the global hardcore scene, DJ Neophyte is the brain behind the enormous collection of tunes the likes of Neophyte and Bodylotion have released. Right from the early days of tunes like Back in my Brain and A Rotterdam Gabber, Neophyte's music has constantly set the standard for other hardcore producers to follow. A look at his release history shows some of the biggest hardcore tunes of all time: Hardcore To Da Bone, Braincracking, Army of Hardcore, D.R.U.G.S, Number One Fan, The Tunnel, Bastard/Asshole, Execute, Happy is voor Hobos and many, many more. Yet, given the fact that he's been releasing since 1992, Neophyte can still be considered one of the most innovative people in the hardcore scene. His DJ performances are of legendary status, bringing together the newest sounds fresh out of Holland. After his set at Hard Wars you will believe you have just had a glimpse of the future of hardcore, and you'll be left desperate for more...

A regular at all of Holland’s biggest events and a MASSIVE crowd favourite here in Australia with legions and legions of loyal, die-hard fans, Evil Activities are back to deliver Hard Wars a lesson in the art of Hardcore... Are you ready?

PANIC (NL)
One of the true hard masters and an institution in the Dutch hardcore scene, Panic has been at the centre of his country's beating hardcore heart with roles in seminal groups such as the Forze DJ Team, Night Stalkers and Hard Creation. In addition to having worked at the home of Dutch hardcore, Midtown Records, he's collaborated with such heavyweights as DJ Paul Elstak, Neophyte, Tha Playah and Evil Activities and many more. His tracks have featured on all the big collaborations; from the legendary Dutch series like Thunderdome to the most recent Bonkers CD, and who can forget his own legacy - the massive 15 years of Panic CD and DVD that was released to celebrate his career to date. One act whose name says it all, prepare to hear Panic send the crowd into absolute mayhem at Hard Wars!
