Field Day organisers have announced that Roger Sanchez is no longer on the bill. He's a liar, basically.
That's how it reads anyway. Despite bing one hundred percent booked, confirmed and advertised to play the summer dance festival, Sanchez will in fact be appearing in...Germany. Um...from the organisers:
Despite Field Day getting 100% booking confirmation in writing, approval of billing, artwork and playing time from Roger Sanchez’s agent way back in September (before we began advertising), his agent has informed us that Roger is also booked to play New Year’s Eve in Germany and cannot come to Australia. We are incredulous that this massive a mistake could have been made by an agent and act at this level. However every cloud has a silver, or in this case perhaps platinum lining: Eric Prydz will now be playing at Field Day, as well as a host of other acts to be announced soon, in our opinion improving the already stunning line up.
Phew. Dirty Sanchez's replacement Eric Prydz is of course playing the NYE festivus at Bondi Beach alongside Underworld and The Presets. He joins at Field Day:
