Interesting indeed, but depending on when it will be done, it could be a bit of an overkill. There's already a weekend hardcore event on the east coast, Massachusetts I believe, in May and one in Oregon in July. Anytime after that would be overkill. ALSo lots of racers flocking to EDC in June and Tomorrowworld in September or October.
I can't see them doing a whole week like ITS. And if the obvious ones make up the majority of the lineup, then I wouldn't consider going.

The biggest Hardcore event I can remember that happened in Los Angeles was "Beyond the Beat" ... I don't remember the exact date, I was still in college so around 4+ years ago. Maybe more, now that I look at the line up.
The line up:
Area 1 (UK Hardcore):
Brisk and Ham
Gammer with MC Whizzkid
Kevin Energy
S3RL
Stormtrooper
Impact
Injured Rezz
D-Lyte
Area 2 (Drum and Bass/Breaks)
John B
Luna-C
Dylan
SPL
Loxy
Bexxie
Dead PA
It was at the Shrine Auditorium which is a pretty big venue out here, right smack dab in downtown LA. I knew several people who came from out of state for this event. .... danm good time...
First time I'm seeing this FB group.

oh you know they don't care for y'all. Remember, you're just a little nothing label no ones ever heard of ;)
but I would so make it out there if y'all were there, but if they haven't spoken to you yet then sadly I don't see that happening.
if marc smith, Kurt and Joey riot as well as Scott brown are there I will highly consider it. But I don't know if I can deal with their insufferable MCs on home turf.

You know what would be wonderful? If this happened somewhere BESIDES one of the coasts. You know, like in Chicago, that giant Midwestern metropolis that no one from the hardcore scene ever seems to come to? Yeah, that'd be awesome.

Screw driving. You might as well just fly there.
Usually when djs come over here in the US it all comes down to the promoters and where the scene is at. Promoters who actually follow UK hardcore closely are few and far between in the US, so it's no surprise that most of them go to Seattle, California, Phoenix, New England area, and New York. If this is all run by the HTID crew by themselves, they could play it safe and hold it in one of those areas, guaranteeing numbers, or they could take it somewhere more economical or with less red tape.

Scott Brown played in Bloomington, IL and it was packed out, whilst I lived there...
Maybe some of it comes down perception of America - in the UK I think generally you think of "where the party be at" in the states I think the generalisation is that it's on the coasts, for sure the coasts have always been more accepting of dance music than other areas in the US...

I would definitely consider tying in a US Hardcore event if I decided to do a holiday to The States. Be very interesting to experience the different rave culture.
Are the bars stocked properly at US events?

not the ones I went to, with the exception of one that was at an actual club or club like vicinity. The one in TN I went to only had beer, and I don't recall the meridian here in Houston having a wide selection of stuff.
honestly though drinks will be cheap for you here most beers and mixed drinks will be $5 max. Which is probably about 3 quid for you.

I wonder if they're stupid enough to forget to book Brisk. The answer to that is more than likely yes!
