yeah as kotsy mentioned Coda is rarely open past 5, and it usually is law as soon as it hits 5 everything gets shut down and the lights come on. I don't know nothing about the event but I would say its safe to say on the regular minimum is 2hrs for an international dj and the headliner would start around 1:30. Be in by 12:30 or 1 to be safe. Of course Coda has the worst line up in the city, arrive early to avoid the cluster fuck that is the Coda line up.
I will say this that new light they installed I think maybe in the fall near the front (its like a swinging red light) is amazing!
