My friends and I who were attending are so SICK of the overwhelming deluge of repeated continuous face book emails that we are boycotting by not attending this event.

It takes a lot of time and effort to put something of this size together. There are at least 30 performers, as well as tons of other things like sound, venue, and busses (royal pain in the ass) to deal with in the weeks and months before any party like this takes place.

I agree that there has been an overload of messages sent from facebook for many events recently. That is one (of many) of the site’s problems. BUT WITH THAT SAID, if you like having a good time, if you enjoy sand, if you like sunshine, if you are a fan or reggae music, if you like people enjoying themselves, then don’t let a few extra facebook messages spoil a great day of music in the sunshine.

If you are annoyed at overpromotion for anything on facebook, a simple way to not get the messages is to click not attending on any event you get invited to. Then, a few days before, either click attending or go to that facebook page and find the most updated info. Then you are all good. It’d seriously be a shame to miss out on all the fun just because you get a few extra messages in your inbox.

I agree about the facebook flood, but that wouldn’t change my decision to enjoy the music there …

8

Humph! Nobody invited ME. I’m not going to somewhere I’m not bloody well wanted.

9

You can have MY invitations.
I’ve been bombarded too.

10

Will there be a lot of people smoking big fat skunky doobies? That could persuade me.

11

I also quit the FB group due to insane over spamming of the event. Personally I don’t think I’ll go up, obviously not 100% due to the spam, but let’s just say it didn’t help. Poor form from the organizers, although sadly part of a wider FB excessive event spam trend.

12

if I could find where to get some of the green stuff, I wish I could be one of those…

A reggae event that isn’t held under a haze of smoke sounds kind of pathetic to me. Kind of like alcohol-free lager. :laughing:

14

I’ll try to smoke binglang leaves, let’s see the effects…

15

:pray: :roflmao: :pray:

if you like sunshine don’t organize outdoor events in the monsoon season…the pool party is already canceled…(altho’ to be fair what can you do with Taipei’s shite weather?)
