TICKET MASTER (RECOMMENDED BUYING METHOD)

GENERAL ADMISSION

VIP TICKETS


Groove Tickets

(WARNING: You will need to exchange your ticket at the venue for a regular Ticketmaster ticket, before being admitted) I recomend you save yourself the hassle and buy directly from Ticketmaster. The fee is higher but you will thank yourself later!

GENERAL ADMISSION
GA Pre-sale Tickets begin at $50, then $60 and finally $70...


VIP TICKETS
VIP Pre-sale Tickets are available for $100 and $150...
VIP TICKET Includes Separate Entry Into Event, Private Decorated VIP Area,
Backstage Access, OPEN VODKA & BEER BAR (for 21 & over w/ID)
Complimentary Bottled Water, Energy Drinks, Juice, Soda + more...

For Monster Massive, I just showed my credit card at the Groovetickets tent and they gave me a silver VIP wristband, no ticket at all and I walked right into the VIP entrance. I'm pretty sure that all events at the Sports Arena are hosted through Ticketmaster, so personally I wouldn't waste the extra money if you're considering VIP.

The problem with this is that your first hassle will be locating the grovvetickets booth and then you have to cross your fingers that there is no line, if there is you better be ready to wait there and then you will have to wait on another line to go in....

VERY MESSY if you ask me... I rather just show up with a ticket that will be traded as VIP writesband when walking in and avoid waiting two times!!!!

I think this is going to be a record breaking event for these guys, everybody I personally know is gonna go to this for sure. Hell, it will be my personal pleasure to let my targeted 21+ email list know about this.

I just saw Armin in NYC last night. He played for almost 6 hours (12-5:30+) and we all had a great time. I think if you go to an Armin event nowadays you have to expect some cheese, but, hell, I was dancing the whole time and will look back it fondly. Hopefully I can convince my friends to come down with me. Not really digging a Tahoe New Years.

I forgot to add that I've been to TAO the past two years and its been excellent. The sound quality is good, but its a bit lacking in the visualization aspect. I'm hoping they put more budget into the whole stage design as opposed to only the DJ booth

What's going on with the VIP tickets?

It says "VIP Pre-sale Tickets are available for $100 and $150..."

Yet, groovetickets is already showing $125? Error or did they sell out of $100 and add a midle price point? Or just start at $125?

With Ticketmaster, there are $100 tickets available still. Here is a link to the VIP tickets thorugh Ticketmaster in case that is of any help:

2 years ago, we bought VIP tickets through Groovetickets.com for TAO and then we had to wait in Groove's line to exchange our tickets for tickemaster-looking tickets. Then we had to go to the VIP line and stand in line again. It was a waste of time standing in the Groove line. I don't know if they changed that since then as we were at Tiesto last NYE.

HTH!

thanks for the link kris, just bought my tix, and forwarded the link to a couple others

IMO mailed hard tickets are always the way to go. However the Groovetickets line isn't that bad. They swipe your credit card, put a wristband on you and then your on your way in.

Yeah, and Groovetickets did have VIP for $100 on Saturday wheni bought mine. Sad part is that I will probably have to pay for my drinks anyway since they've been serving only cheap-ass vodka in VIP. Cheap vodka is actually more expensive, you just pay for it the next day instead!!

I got VIP for convenient entry since this will be on a Wednesday and I can't take that day off, so hope it's easy to get in as Monster Massive was!

Make sure you learn of all the VIP areas since there is more than just one behind the DJ's. There is also one outside in the corner.

What you guys don't want to hang out with the Kandi Kids?

I hate to say it, even though we had vip last year, we probably spent a total of 30mins only to grab/finish drinks then go right back into the mass. I've never really enjoyed being separated from the rest of the people. Nor am I really feeling the East Coast clubber scene so I'm looking forward to heading "home." Heh 22 year old still wishing he was a 16 year old kandi kid.

Originally posted by bscarbro Really? I thught Armin had a great set that night. To each his own I guess.

I haven't liked Armin's sets in a long while so I was prepared to be bored when I went to Giant Village I liked Armin when he used to play harder but he's too prog and fluffy for my taste nowadays.

Originally posted by bscarbro One question though. What's the guy gonna do if he has to piss? 9 hours is a long time with no bathroom break. lol.

I saw him run like a race horse to the porta-potty backstage once in the middle of his set and after he was done with the set. Maybe drinking (vodka-?)cranberry juice was a strategic move for him

To quote PvD, "You put on a long record and run."

armin usually changes his shirt a few times, too :-)

he sometimes also has special guests who can probably take over for a few minutes just in case


the longest I ever played a set for was 5 hours, and that was ridiculous (although a lot of fun)... i cant imagine almost twice that

Hypothetical: If you had enough money for either GMAX or TAO, where would you go (take into account production, lines, crowd, etc)?

I'm a little concerned that over a 9 hour span Armin could go stagnant. I love my trance but what could he give us that keeps me moving or happy for that long. I had a good time at Armin Only. Can he repeat?

GMAX does not necessarily have that problem with the DJ changes. Both Benassi and Moby were exceptional at EDC so I'd love to see them again. Neutral to Dirty South and Farina. I've heard various issues though with GMAX.

That's exactly how I felt after Giant Village too! But given a choice between Armin and Moby, I'd much rather see Armin, plus I know that this event will draw some other great talent. I know that many people raved about Moby's set at EDC, but seemed like a lot of odd noises to me and then how do you dance to it?

The production is done by Armin's marketing and production team. so the same set will be used as the "Armin Only"
