Respect.
I'm sure most of you are aware of the controversy surrounding a the 12 year anniversary of Reliable Entertainment, A.V.I.D. The venue that we have just procured has been taken away from us because most people just can't respect the rules. Now because of this, we have lost a potentially amazing venue, and one of the hardest working rave promoters on this island. I hope those involved are happy with themselves.
I want to make a couple things crystal clear. First of all, there are a couple individuals that were a large liability at this past weekends event, that are officially BANNED from ANY future D-Blok Studios or J-Gib Promotions event, thank you for playing a large role in ruining a very special venue.
Next, the alcohol rules at Superfriends. There will be a lenience for having a few drinks in your campsites, but don't bring it to the party, don't think we're dumb, we know that people will sneak alcohol in, but what we want is to keep the main party area free of bottles, cans and anything else. Please respect this, this is a one time deal, if this doesn't go well, Jamie Gib will also be retiring.
THESE PARTIES DON'T JUST HAPPEN PEOPLE. It takes a massive group of people planning, booking DJs, booking sound, finding new venues, ect. to make these shows happen. Please respect this, or the scene on the island will continue to dwindle. What I want to do with Superfriends is to start to return to the basics of partying.
PLUR people, remember it.

Tickets, an explanation and a breakdown.
Alright, since there had been some debate on the original event page, I will now continue the debate here.
The tickets will be more expensive than in previous years. Superfriends has evolved beyond anything I could have expected when I first conceived this party in 2008. From a one stage renegade party, to last years event which brought out 1300 people with three stages of world class talent. This year is another evolution, into the legal festival world. And with this, comes changes in pricing. We are taking every precaution necessary to make sure this goes without a hitch, including procuring a legal, licensed venue, with noise permits and a fully licensed security team keeping you safe over the weekend. We are also bringing in world class sound, international and canadian headliners, and specialty vendors to keep you fed and provide you with trinkets and souvenirs from this very special event. The pre-sale tickets will be $100 dollars. This covers your entry fee, camping for the weekend, and parking for your vehicles. The tickets will go up in price once the first tier sells out, and will be more at the door.
I sincerely hope the jump in price does not deter anyone from attending. The prices have been built with cost effectiveness in mind, but also to cover our costs as well. We are putting out a significant amount from our own pockets, but we can't do it all alone.
I thank you in advance for your business, and I look forward to everything coming together in the next month. Keep inviting your friends, and keep your eye on the page to see when tickets will be going on sale.
Jamie Gib
Head of Sales & Promotions
D-Blok Studios
Basically this means, that it breaks down to just under 35 dollars per day. Each day has between 16 and 18 hours of music.
I WILL NOT BE SELLING DAY PASSES.
There is an option of a Sunday day pass that will be sold ONLY at the door, and ONLY starting at 11am on Sunday morning. Price to be determined.
Thank you all for your concern and your questions, and any further questions can be directed to dblokstudios@gmail.com
