I just enjoyed the set as a whole, and the screen they had setup behind them was pretty damn cool.
I guess my opinions for the day differ a tad, I would have probably hated it if I didn't have a VIP/Crew pass. Got a good/comfy view from the FOH.

was ok: i think from now on if i go to future again i'll rock up at 8.
last year for ferry, this year for markus.
schulz was pretty good: very good performer, really got the crowd fired up: poor guy got pretty pissed when they turned his volume down, but got over it, like a champ

the bowl absolutely sucks- i really hope they change the venue for these things- i inhaled more dust and dirt than i've ever seen before in my life: was fucking disgusting, and made me feel sick... can't be healthy either!!

Yer. Blocked nose, black snots.

the whole thing was a bit 'meh' for me since i wasn't really interested in the lineup apart from chemical brothers, i only went cause i couldnt get tickets to their concert. i got there just before 2, got in through the vip entry easy, went to the godskitchen tent and someone was playing 'bt - dreaming' so i stayed and bopped away for that, then the next tune was crap i thought so i moved on haha.

watched eddie halliwell from the grass near the bar on the main stage, didn't really get into it. not sure how he did it but he managed to squeeze in a few tunes in between jesus poses. i was (perhaps foolishly) hoping he would say 'fuck you' to his set time and just bang it out but oh well.

roger sanchez was a little meh as well, i didn't really know what to expect but i thought he would be a little less cheesy. i suppose its a big daytime festival though so no biggie. he played some gay remix of 'born slippy' which pissed me off haha. t-soma: did you see the last 30 mins or so of his set? everyone went nuts and was singing along when he played the red hot chilli peppers track, i thought there was quite a bit of crowd interaction.

john digweed was pretty good, i missed most of his set while walking around but the last 30 mins or so was mad, although i could only hear it waiting in the line to get back onto the balcony haha. one track in particular sounded like old bedrock prog trance kinda stuff.

sven vath i thought was...underwhelming. i didn't really know what to expect as i've never heard any of his sets or anything but i was expecting it to be a little harder and faster? that kind of techno i find pretty boring. it didn't really seem to go anywhere to me. there was one song i really liked called 'odessey number 2' or something that someone told me so i'll check that out.

who is james holroyd? he played a nice breaks tune towards the end of his set but other than that was more 'meh' hehe.

chemical brothers were MAD i thought amazing show! there was only 1 or 2 tunes that i didn't enjoy, i don't mind even their cheesier songs lost it to 'out of control' but i was hoping they would do a longer intro to it like at glastonbury 2007. i just kept going off and jumping around haha. i thought the visuals were CRAZY, i only had a few drinks and i was tripping out, i feel sorry for anyone on lsd or something lol. the end was kinda abrupt though, last tune finished and they just ran off, i think everyone was a little confused. i was disappointed they didn't play block rocking beats but i had been going off the whole set and at the end of the day they were all i wanted to see and i enjoyed it so it was ok. i guess. it would have been nice if they came back on and did a couple of encore tracks though.

i had no issues with security, i thought they were doing a good job. people were trying to jump over the fence from the side of the bowl to get into the balcony area, and jump from the balcony down to the ground, these people are putting themselves and others at risk so they should be carted away. i saw one fight where some clown without his shirt on ran down the little gap kinda lane thing between the two lines to get back in, the guys were saying you can't, he started getting agro so they restrained him, he started fighting back and swinging so they grabbed him and dragged him out. it wasn't heavy handed or anything. some other clown who got caught in the middle of trying to jump down over the railing was yelling "if you fucking touch me i'll fucking smash you", far out what is wrong with these people? whenever i saw a security guy they just seemed to be either doing their best with the huge crowds in the line or enjoying themselves so no issues with them for me.

i was suprisingly fine with hayfever! i thought i would die with some of the dust and dirt going around. only hit me at the end when i was leaving, probably being at the front of the stage helped me out haha.

had a couple of nice chats, one with my line buddy nurey or something, didnt quite get how to spell it, we watched the aforementioned fight together and had a laugh. was standing with someone with a mr happy t-shirt for chemical brothers and sven vath, we would both be going off at the same time and just look at each other with this massive grin it was great haha. didnt get his name though.

some nice scenery around too although mixed in with the usual posers and people wearing stilletos and platforms, wtf?

if i was more interested in the lineup and enjoyed the music more i think it would have been a great day, but i didnt so it was overall kinda average for me other than the chems which i loved. first time ive ever been to the bowl for something like that, it sounded pretty good i think and was easy enough to get around. lines to get into the stage down the front were big because it was way crammed so you couldnt expect anything else.

lol as narcism said fella, catch yoll.

Had a fairly good day. Rocked up to see Eddie and was somewhat disappointed. Thought he would bag out some more tunes but alas, no. Wandered around the place after that. Saw a bit of Data Rock, Diggers, Elite Force, Vath, Mark Knight and then Schulz.

The day was made after hearing Schulz. Made it worthwhile. Here's a a nearly complete tracklist. Feel free to help

ID -
Terranova & Austin Leeds - Follow Me (Dub Mix) ??
Mr. Pit - Shana
Three Drives - Greece 2000 (Chris Reece Remix)
ID -
Arnej - People Come, People Go (Maor Levi Remix)
Markus Schulz - Fly To Colors (Genix Remix)
ID -
Rex Mundi vs. Ronski Speed - The Perspective Space (Markus Schulz Remix)
Bart Claessen - Playmo
Vincent De Moor - Fly Away (Cosmic Gate Remix)
Markus Schulz Featuring Andy Moor - Daydream (Ronski Speed Remix)
Nenes & Pascal Feliz - Platinum
ID -
Super 8 and DJ Tab - Needs To Feel (Wippenburg Remix) vs The Doors - This Is The End (Markus Schulz Mashup)
John O'Callaghan Featuring Audrey Gallagher - Big Sky (Intro Edit)


That's about all I got. No idea about the first one. Second ID is also no idea. Third ID sounded like more than anything but with no vocals. Could be totally wrong. Last ID had an awesome piano type jingle to it and dropped in with some big fuck off bass. I have about 3 seconds of it on video and I'm trying to find it.

why the fuck did they bother to bring eddie here if theyre not going to let him play wat he is good at. wat a fucking waste.

apart from eddie being major disappointment, i still had a fun day. godskitchen stage had good music all day. was good to chill out there. thought schulz killed it, the fireworks during big sky were great!

x2. Would have loved to have heard that, Off the World, Walk in My World. I still lost my shit for a lot of it though.

Sounds good m1kest4r. I have some awesome vids that my cousin recorded of Fly to Colors, Fly Away, Daydream, Platinum, Doors vs Need to Feel. Pity they are all 150mb odd. I'll see what I can do.

Agreed there, i was waiting for that ..

Besides a 17 year old girl trying to go through my friends bag at the Godskitchen stage while I was trying to Boogie to Steve May's MAD CHOOOOOONZ between 12 - 1.30pm.
He was AWESOME - Suffer who missed him!

DIGGERS was FK'N the highlight of the Future music.
Pity no one worth seeing other than the above mentioned.....

you obviously didnt see them. out of all the tracks that the chems played the only one i have ever heard in a club is hey boy, hey girl.

i pretty much agree with everything philby said about the chems:
- i only went to future cos couldnt get a ticket to the main gig
- thought it was an awesome show, pretty much liked every track they played. played so many different styles.. techy stuff, trancy stuff, breaks
- the visuals were awesome. during one track about half way through the set they were fkn INTENSE. very very trippy.
- i was also waiting for block rockin beats. kinda shit they didnt play it but ohwell
- thought they would do an encore too

what was the last track? awesome breaksy one


apart from that it was a very average day for me. after last years fmf i said i wouldnt go to another future event at the smmb again, obviously didnt learn my lesson. so many fucken tools it was unbelievable. why do these morons go to dance parties if they are just going to act like total knobs. WAY too packed, again. dancefloor set up was just stupidity. the dust owned me again, though that cant really be helped i guess.

in terms of other djs:
eddie.... so horrible. thinks he is god or something. played cheesy house. very disapointed.
digweed i thought was decent without being spectacular. was better at q-bar i think. being so far back on the hill probably didnt help though. looked like he lost the crowd though. his sound kinda went over the heads of most of the fluro kids and muzzas.
vath again i thought was decent but his sound is not really one that im hugely into. again kinda looked like he lost the crowd as well.
went and checked out bexta, only seen her once before a few years ago. she was pretty good, was mostly playing tech-trance with a couple of hard trance tracks thrown in. she was definitely having a great time up there.

+1 about bexta- she was great- went and had a boogie for a bit when i was bored and getting annoyed with the day-- and the fact she was grinning and looking like she was having an awesome time really helped pick me up as well: good show
