well, that sucks....

but then again, if it hadn't been for all those shady webmasters making money off of the event, I would never have even HEARD of the festival in the first place, so i wouldn't have known what I was missing..

But really - heres what I think. The internet popularized Koktebel and the neptune festival to the extent that western pervs with money actually wanted to move there. That jacked up property values enormously, and so made development inevitable and irresistable.

Another paradise lost. It happens all the time and no one ever learns...
