Ah, very good.
Yeah they'll have another release. It won't be as big as the first though. Now let's hope Blink-182, Major Lazer, Disclosure, Migos, Rae Sremmurd, Kaytranada, Lil Yachty, Matoma, Klingande, Skepta, Claptone, Le Youth, Tensnake, Blond:ish, and Lee Burridge don't back out.
Know it all.

Event groups across B.C. say the clock is ticking for the future of the industry after the Ministry of Tourism, Arts, Culture and Sport said a $20-million pool would be placed on pause.
“It’s a real possibility that events will downsize,” said Scott Gurney, owner of 17 Black Events.
In 2021, the BC Fairs, Festivals, and Events Recovery Fund (BCFFE) was launched as a one-time recovery fund for events impacted by COVID-19. It’s been renewed every year since, and the province estimates that nearly $80 million has been granted to eligible events.
Last year, more than 1,100 events used money from the fund, which can provide up to 20 per cent of the total budget to event organizers.

Easy to see how you can become addicted to that money. Let's say you run a festival with 5,000 guests averaging $50 each. $250,000 income but you can add in another $150,000 in management fees - for a $400,000 budget - and get $80,000 of that paid directly by government.

The Highland Games, Beer Festival, BC Lions game in Victoria, Victoria Day Parade all got money for 2024. Surely none of them were in danger of closing up.

As someone in that industry once said to me, "we are masters at grant applications." You run a few festivals a year, bank $50k+ per festival in government money, and it's not a bad gig.

Ya, the two big festivals that MG does got $90,000 total from this new fund in 2024. B and the B and Culinaire.

Don't we think most or even all of these would have got by with nothing from this new fund? the Highland Games - in it's161st year, probably has the momentum, no? The Marathon? The Pacific Cup that has been going on for 50 years? Phillips Back Yard, Rifflandia, SkaFest, Fernfest, dragon boats, TC10k, TD Jazzfest, the annual pro gold tournament, the film festival. All would have been fine, likely.

I'm not even that worried about where the money goes. I'm more concerned that long-running events and festivals that likely did not need the money, were still granted it. I looked at the application details; there was no requirement to show need.

I was watching an episode of FBI Most Wanted, these two young foster kids were running away from their homes with the goal of getting to Canada, cause everything is free there.
