Bummer. I just received the following email from Langerado's publicist:
Today, the 2009 Langerado Music Festival is cancelled due to sluggish ticket sales. The 7th annual event was slated to happen March 6-8 at their new home in downtown Miami's Bicentennial Park.
Langerado's independent local promoters, faced with a very tough decision in a dismal economy, cancelled the 2009 event only after every possible option was exhausted.
As Langerado Co-Promoter Ethan Schwartz explains, "Langerado has always put the fan experience first. Unfortunately, during these difficult economic times, and facing a first year in a new venue, it's become apparent that we cannot execute a production that lives up to the high standards of our past events. Putting Langerado on hold was the toughest decision we have ever had to make. We are very grateful for the support of the greater-Miami community and the music community during this difficult time."All tickets purchased will be refunded. Please look for ticket refunds to be processed in the next 5-7 business days. Each order will be refunded to the credit card in full, minus the included order processing fees. Shipping fees will also be credited for those orders that did not select the free shipping promotion. Visit www.musictoday.com for more information.

Yeah, it's a bummer. It's going to be interesting to see how some festivals (besides Bonnaroo) will do this summer with Phish, the Dead, Bonnaroo - reminds me of 2003. Plus the economy is shitty.

I feel as though any festival that will have Phish or the Dead will sell enough tickets to sustain itself
so let's hope rothbury has either...or both, that'd be boss

Yeah, location and lineup were also a factor, not just the economy. We're partying there anyways and catching Umphrey's Sat. at U Miami. :) Hope they find a good place and better lineup next year!
