 Posted: Mon Aug 22, 2005 11:04 pm Post subject: A statement from the promoter of the Utah sabatoge |
 |
|
I was the main event organizer for "Versus II", I have been throwing parties in Utah for over 6 years now. I have done well over 75 parties, and NEVER in my life have witnessed anything so disrupting!
To clear up any questions any of you had for the event at hand, we DID have all proper permits to host the event on the property that we did. The Utah national guard is one of the agencies that raided the show, and they were the worst ones. That girl you see getting the shit beat out happens to be one of my good friends, keep in mind this girl does not drink, do drugs, or anything of the sort. All she is is a major DNB fan. We also have hand on eyewitnesses with writen statements stating thay had witnessed 2 of the ment in camo take a young intoxicated girl into one of the porto-potties during the main coarse of the raid while one of them stood outside a watch. In the mean time we presented the "Utah County Mass Gathering Permit" to the officer in charge and he said" No you do not have a permit for this and confiscated my folder w/ insurance policy, Permits, Business Licsense, and proof of permission to use property for the event.
THIS IS THE COUNTRY WE LIVE IN TODAY!!
IT'S ALL FUCKED!!!
We are in the mistd of organizing a protest party in the capital lawn of salt lake city utah to let our voiced be heard. We will keep all of you informed on what is going on.
I and the rest of my krew appreciate all of the support from everyone across the world, and we do want to let all of you know that we WILL NOT let this matter slide.
We have met with our attorneys and are filing a multi-million dollar class action law suite to accomidate the injuries, mental distress, and everything else that happened to these innocent party goers.
These events that happened are starting to be publicly released nation wide on news stations, national radio talk shows and so on and so forth.
The support from all of you is why!
RESPEKT!!
P.S. Knick, we will have you back soon.
Respekt to all,
Jeremy
Versus II (SLC, UT.)

So Drumlogik ... do you have any proof that you had the Permit? Like cashed checks or credit card statements? Just curious, because I know the legal system can be a bitch sometimes.
Anyway ... I hate that this shit happened to you and the rest there. I've been at busted parties and been seen on the nightly news under headings like "Rave busted by police. Found to be full of teenagers doing drugs and having illicit sex". So I have some understanding how you must have felt, but honestly, my experiences pale in comparison to what you went through. I'm glad you're fighting this. Most importantly, I'm glad that the world-wide masses have taken notice and offered support!
Peace.

I hope all goes well with your protest party too. I'm still waiting for this video that shows this girl getting the shit kicked out of her. The one that has been posted, and posted again doesn't show much of anything. I'm not saying she didn't have this happen to her, but you guys are going to need more substantial evidence than the video you have being passed around to fight this one, and say this girl got beat up by police. Best of luck with your fight on this dude. Hopefully you will be heard, and hopefully you gather more evidence than what you guys have at this point. Like Jubei mentioned maybe some credit card receipts for the permits. Or how about copies of the permits? You might want to consider copying the permits if you do have them and posting those up so people can see that you did have them.

Well, i think most people will have the decency to give them the benefit of the doubt. Especially here in ATL since one of our locals witnessed a lot of this and is putting his own reputation on the line to help fight their cause.

I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt because the fact that Nick & Joanna witnessed this happen. It would just be more helpful for more kids to come forward with their pictures, videos, and especially proof of these permits. That's what the police, and investigators seem to be using the most against this event. If he has all this then he should have it up on the net so everyone can pass this along to their local news stations as well. It would be a smart counter attack to the police saying he didn't have this permit.

Well ... I think most people ARE giving them the benefit of the doubt. But, I would expect for him (drumlogic) to confirm what proof he has. If he says that the police took "all" proof of his permits, then logically I can't give him the benefit of the doubt, it seems too fishy. He should have some proof somewhere. Look ... it is easy to forget and/or not know about every single permit that is required. Hypothetically, a promoter could get twenty different permits, and forget (or didn't know) to get just one, and the party would be illegal. I think if the World-wide EDM community is going to put up such a fight for this "Legal" party, then we need to be provided with all the facts.
Regardless, it looks like excessive force was used, and it still pisses me off that the shit went down like it did. It makes me sad that there are so many people that want to control how other people live their life.

This is exactly the way I feel about this situation too.
