Pics looked stunning and better than anything I've seen in the US. Was going to pass this round of ADID but had to get a ticket after seeing this mint venue.
One thing that surprises me though is how much the venue build relied on volunteer labor. I had friends work 18+ hour shifts for no more compensation than 1 comp to the event. They were even given a hard time when they asked for a couple of drink tickets. If it was a small outfit or promoter sure I could see that but these guys are charging $90+ for their events. I guess when you are bringing this sort of next level party people are more willing to put up with that sort of thing.

18+ hr shift for a measly comp? So, that equates to $5/hr, not bad...
drink tickets should of def been included, considering what they NOW charge- Space Knights remains the best.. @ 3rd release, their day/night ticket was $60 and that was prob their best night (excluding the bk mirage bc those pics looked insane).
I'll be at ADID to check out the space.. been a while since I've been to one of these parties.

didn't realize that this is the same venue CF already used for the April party.
Did they rearrange the main room booth, so that it's not right inline with the traffic to the other room / outside?

This must be addressed. That pretty much ruined that April party for me, the traffic flow was awful. Any feedback?

at one point, I was front left, to go outside, had to go to entrance, walk back all the way, cut along the bar, push forward to the right side exit, ridiculous...though the munchie truck made up for it somewhat, lol

have you ever heard "wack" used in a positive way? Bad, they had some variety but ran out of it super quick.
