festival kinetik

Someone told me that Project Pitchfork will be there. Is that right? I cannot find the info

Oops..if that is right, what day will they be here?

We are now able to announce the updates that has been running around on the Internet for a while. After more than 2 months of talking directly with Skinny Puppy, even if we did have a signed contract from there booking agency since September 2008, due to changes on Skinny Puppy side schedule, both parties agreed to cancel Skinny Puppy participation to the festival. It is a sad news for all the Kinetik team, and be sure we did everything we could to make this show happen. It is with the same resigment that Skinny Puppy decided to cancel there participation to the festival. We will soon post an official letter from Nivek Ogre explaining this change and that the cancellation is not due to the festival team or Skinny Puppy fault.

We hope that the festival line up with more than 35 acts is still enough to please everyones tastes, the festival was never intended to be a "one" band festival, but more a whole experience. For anyone that has bought tickets/passes to the festival and wish to receive an refund on there purchase, please send an email to sales@festival-kinetik.net along side the full transaction confirmation ID received from the paypal transaction confirmation email.

On the good news side, we are pleased to announce the addition of Project Pitchfork to the thursday night line up for a first show in Canada/USA in over 10 years. Important note, this addition is not made to replace Skinny Puppy, since we think no one can pretend to replace them. But we do think that Project Pitchfork will bring a nice addition to the festival line up.

Also, now that the final line up is available and that all the changes has been made, all diamond passes / T-shirt purchases will start this week end and should be delivered to you in the next 10 to 20 open days (depending on where you are located). We will send a confirmation email to everyone before sending the purchases to you to confirm your address and update everyone on the line up changes.

Tickets will also be available in Montreal this week end and in the others cities on the fallowing week (check the tickets page for updates)
