I saw people with glowsticks, mickey mouse gloves, shirtless guys, stinky people, washing machines, e-puddles, and a lot more right in the open. Very sad!!! Vanguard's quality really went down the drain. It didn't used to be like that. What a way to introduce my girlfriend to the EDM Scene!

The exact reason I abandoned Hollywood.

What a g*d damn shame.
Even diggerz is contaminated.

When is 'the scene' going to elevate?!?

I understand where you're coming from, but..it is what it is. I just do my best to enjoy the music, despite the negativity that is intertwined within the genre.

I hung on as long as I could.

What's wrong with glow sticking? I mean your just as bad as the Dub no Grime/dubstep people. True I think when the night should NOT start with glow sticks, but at two in the morning and the EDM is flowing who among us can say the tracks just don't move us....On that note I do agree that the scene is changing for the worst and all of these top 40 loving mickey mouse lovin' mofo's are polluting the brilliance that is darkwave.

Woe is the world we live in, cheers to the past.....but bring on the future!

Glowsticking is fine in general, IMO.

When someone is sitting there cracked out staring at glowsticks swirling....what the hell is that supposed to show this world about the EDM scene.

It only hurts the scene. It does not help it. At all.

Im confused...its Digweed in one of the larger clubs in CA...of course you will get a wider segment, including some mass market as well as the so-called washing machines, kids, etc.

Its like going to a "massive", expect the epuddles and what have you, specially if you have the Superstar DJs spinning.

I think this idea applies to all countries in the world, not only in LA. Or at least in the few countries Ive partied to...

thats why i dont go out to la events even though i live 1 hour away. You dont see too much of this at SF/SD venues. Plus you still see the beautiful people.

I had not been to Vanguard in a couple of months since I stopped promoting for Giant (although I was helping out Sat) until Sat. The "Micky Mouse" gloves they never used to let in as well as glow sticks. I know they were at least taking away the glowsticks last Sat. Not sure how people got them in to be honest. There is a lot of new security though.

Cheers to that, that must be it lol!

But what's up with that no glow stick policy? That's pretty whack in my honest opinion, but hey the goings on in Cali is the goings on in Cali.I'll stick to the world renowned Castle, and it's thirty year history of tolerance and excellence.
