glad to hear a steep majority of the fellow TAs had a great time last night. Apparantly I, alongside with Mamii, was part of the hundreds stranded outside the club who were not allowed in because of the overcapacity limit deemed by the FDNY Battalion Chief. There were complications of many sorts, which led to a delay, which in return led to the exclusion of entering the building.. all to enjoy MY number one favourite Dj, Paul van Dyk.
I was looking SO forward to November 11, 2005. I remember in the months prior to this date, I was downloading so many Live Dj Sets from Paul... and to find out he was coming back to NYC.. and BACK TO ROXY?? God I was SO EXCITED! and look what happened? It's such a bummer, it really is. Looking at all the pics, seeing a bit of the tracklisting and I knew I missed a night that wouldv'e left enjoyous memories.
Rather instead I'm scarred with the fact how poorly this event was managed in terms of ticket-sales to cover sales. Obviously this isn't DANCE VALLEY or LOVEPARADE and there are limitations to the amount of occupants allowed in a venue in a metropolitan area. Clearly ticket-holders should have been credited with priority entrance, simply the fact they have purchased advance tickets... and the intent to purchase advance tickets is to reserve right-of-entry. Cover sales in my personal opinion should have been waived, if not limited to. Clearly the amount of advance tickets should or already has been reflected to be on or about the same amount of occupants allowed in the subject venue.
Looks like I'm venting here huh? Anyways, glad that everyone had fun. Wish I was able to post a more "happier" post and share my two cents on last night's event.

Would you like to buy a vowel or solve the puzzle?

On a serious note, sorry to hear about this - but unfortunately that's not the first time this has happened. Those that were sadly exposed to this before knew that they had to get to the club early.
We got there relatively early: 11:30PM and managed to get in. But once I stepped into the club, I knew that the rest of the folks outside would have a slim-to-none chance to get in.
I would have figured Made would have learned their lesson last time around. But for the 2nd time????????
c'mon - they're not amatures - they know the score and should have forseen this. Obviously not.
hope you get more than "sorry, here's your money back"
