not sure who those other 'names' are but I can tell you guys that Shah won't be there as a friend was trying to organize a local event with him here (for a potential afterparty) as he will be somewhere else on NYE so back to the drawing board I guess haha.

oh armin plz let me bow down in your dj holy'ness. you are oh so great. plz play for 9 hours straight at tao. plz dont let any other dj take you down from your throne no matter how boring you make get since 9 hours is a hell of a long time for a commercial progressive trance dj.
idk im just skeptical of a 9 hour set from him when there could be other dj's pumping it out.

Hey I was just wondering if anyone here in TA ever tried to buy that Cabana package for massive raves presented by GoVentures / Insomniac... this one costs $3000 for 6 people!
If so, was it worthed? Did you get to meet the DJs in person? Or what were the benefits that you get (or something extraordinary) from just a regular or VIP ticket?
I was doing the math, it's $3000.. let's say I have 30 of my friends to join the Cabana, that'd be an extra $100 per person! But would it fit?

And there lies the problem. I can always handle 5-6 hours but how quality will it be?
The Armin Only DVD was pretty sick visually, but it didn't appeal to the dancing part of my brain. I did see him in NYC for Halloween and he was excellent, but I feel Armin Only Events have different stigma attached to them compared to a club night.
More than likely I'll end up going and having a great time but if I hear Human or Going Wrong I'll start throwing shit.

If you called a cab ahead of time, you should be fine by leaving at 5:30, although you may want to get out of the cab at Figueroa and Exposition and walk if the traffic is already tough. When we saw Armin Only in downtown in July 2006, we were there when it opened and we got right in. But that entire event was much more well-structured compared to any event I've been to at the SA (including a few TAO's).
Have you looked into a room at the Radission on Figueroa? It's not a great hotel but it works well and the location is perfect. It's a quick walk to the Sports Arena. That way you wouldn't have to worry about finding taxis on NYE in LA. Here's a link if this may be helpful:
