Totally shoddy planning on iVOW's part. They didn't sell nearly enough tickets. FYI the SFSS had to give them a $12K "emergency loan" the day before because they didn't budget correctly for the stage rentals, security, et cetera... Your student fees which you can probably kiss goodbye now because I doubt iVOW is going to recoup their cost. Yes. K'naan was a bit of an asshat about it, but the organizers should bear the brunt of the blame IMO. They had little experience organizing this type of event, didn't secure enough capital, didn't promote it widely, and left things way too last minute.
