Pages (3): « 1 [2] 3 »

No I'm asking anyone if they have any ideas other than purchasing the three day pass. Maybe they know someone who could offer a comp pass or something similar. Thanks for the help btw

Ooh i see, good luck btw.

These girls are easy pussy but I won't cash in 500 for it!

Best festival out there right now is EDC Vegas. Well at least in the USA. Not even close. Miami with all the other parties may be a better overall experience.

maybe for over the top production but in terms of actual music then nothing comes close to touching movement in detroit.

maybe. But who really wants to be in Detroit. Lol

Heading out to BPM, looking forward to the Detroit style tunes in a much better locale than the D

Best afterparty in Miami?? Locations? Costs? Space/Mansion reviews last year?? Thanks

Yeah, wow. I was expecting the same recycled shit of the past few years. Gaia, JoC, A&F? Yes, please. Could care less for NWP and Cosmic, but who knows maybe the earlier sets will make them wake up and not play shit.

Shouldn't PVD be on there too? He's closing the mega-structure.

Yeah, I don't think the list is complete.

GAIA!

There's like no room at Ultra these days. It's pretty suffocating to roam around. I was blessed to be able to attend both weekends last yr and the first was amazing due to only being half the amount of people as the second weekend and you were able to roam freely.

Don't get too excited. Have you heard:



I understand an evolution in sound but how do you go from Tuvan, Status Excessu D, and etc. to full on trouse. I dunno why I even put an atom of faith back into Armin when I saw this. I'll either be selling off my Sunday ticket or just not going at all. Drumcode here I come.

Something interesting I wanted to bring up. Last year Ultra sold out of Weekend 2 tickets January 31st, which just happened to pass by. This was posted the 30th...

Now my point is that there hasn't been the usual hype of we are almost sold out or putting a sell out counter on their main page. Which leads me to believe that they are behind schedule from their last couple of years selling out before January even ended. Also take into account that last year Week 2 sold out even though their was a Week 1 that more than likely stole some sales from Week 2. Looks like the price jack up to $500 really screwed them. I'm interested in seeing when exactly they will sell out this year. Hopefully they take a hit and quit being such money grabbing bitches next year.

They arent worried about it, trust me. They had to raise prices because they only had one weekend this year and they needed to compete with their stepped up production from last year because last year they were able to have a lot more production from 2 weekends worth of sales and they only had to pay for setup and teardown once. I still feel pretty good it will sell out eventually

think about how much people would complain if the ticket prices remained the same and they showed up this year and the megastructure wasnt nearly as amazing as it was in 2013

Ultra does what EDC Vegas does, they spend nearly 100% give or take of the ticket proceeds on production and talent and then make their money from Venders booth space and merchandise and alcohol sales

If they thought ticket sales would not compensate the talent we have on the lineup would be a lot less than what we see now. Dont forget last year Ultra specifically hinted that Daft Punk would be here this year, if they do get that (wow, how much would that cost them considering DP has turned down million dollar shows) then expect a total and instant sell out. Not that I care about them but the rest of the world seems to care

What are the chances of this actually happening though? That tweet got deleted fairly quick after they posted it. Good marketing on their behalf but if they don't get them people will bitch even more.

i still dont think they need DP to sell out, it will come, just not as quickly. i will eat my words if I am wrong but I feel pretty good that it will still sell out.

I don't have any doubts that they will sell out. It's Ultra after all.

The problem with Ultra is the festival has way too many cons and not enough pros.

Ultra's production and location are fucking badass.

But the premium price, clusterfuck of festival infrastructure, and under 18 year old kiddos are just too much for it to overcome anymore.

Clusterfuck is not even the word, especially now that it's only one weekend again.

The worst thing is it isn't just the stages, it's the entire venue that is cluster fucked. Such a terrible festival in general, I wouldn't even go to that shit for free.
