If only the average raver could see beyond names and perceived status.

I think they can. I also think aspiring types are finally seeing the glass ceiling is unbreakable if you approach from below.
Grassroots revolution and public hanging of the autocracy in 2017 is feasible. The irony is I think it will be them tying their own nooses.
I really did try to be nice, reasonable and fair. For years, met with staggering ignorance and indifference. Remember that if I seem atypically harsh, blunt, disregarding and demeaning in future months. Cruel to be kind, greater good, wheat/chaff, yada. A war has two parties fighting, and I don't see any fighters left. Pretty relic armour, maybe.

To be honest,I reckon you've done well to hold back for so long.
What happens next is others doing, not yours

See, that's not what I think. We've held back for common good, long and lonely. On a level playing field it's not even a competition. Castles and thrones are misleading, revolutions are borne of dischord and discontent..
Step back, and look at what has actually been done, released, executed and capitalised upon in the past few years. Imagine the industrial revolution creeping towards the world known. Look at weaponry, wit and warranted malice.
Place your bets.

... And if you read that and think "that's overly dramatic" you're right. It's all depressingly needless.

You're a reasonably big operation with a big reputation. Don't you think that after such event successes that HU could have an events team or something?
I personally feel like if there's a pool of artists, connections and experience, you could do it. The problem is, you'd need other people to help and take on responsibility. I know you're passionate about HU, but hopefully not so much that you're afraid to take risks (I know you take risks with every release, but I mean taking a plunge into a new area of the industry. After all, it's reasonably well known now that there's more money in events than in the music itself).
You mention that you don't get a look in with other labels and they're doing stuff without HU, but could that be a problem? You're telling us, and could that damage other peers' trust in you?
I think HU events would be a nice thing - sort of like Hospitality by Hospital. Your artists tend to play at all these events, it's a shame they don't play at many organised by yourselves.

We're setting up an international tour for early next year; as far as the UK goes we'll keep working with RR, and SV.
I *hate* running events.

Meh.

Wait, is that your way of saying that next year's HTID USA may not have Fracus & Darwin on the lineup??? And if they get a hardcore stage at EDC like I've heard they've been trying to do they won't be there either???

Ajay gets binned off from HTID (or quits, depending on who you listen to) due to Storm
HU don't appear at HTID again
Rabbit hole?

Sounds like they need to open up a dialogue and try to do things right.
At this point Jay could be Luke and Ajay is Obi Wan.

Maybe it's HU's recent association with Keyes that could cost them bookings with HTID. If they lose gigs to play at HTID USA and HTID ITMS because of it, well clearly that association is costing them more than being around Keyes is worth.

LoL if that happens it's nothing to do with associations with Keyes.
Also if that happens once the Blu-ray is out.... :/
