I'll keep this as just an Ultra review because it's just too much to write about. Me & John got there at around 4. We had to go back to the hotel several times because they wouldn't allow backpacks and we had to choose the stupid line that didn't allow cameras. The Hybrid stage was close to the street so we heard some of their set while walking back and forth to the hotel. When we finally went into the park, Digweed was spinning. Digweed was OK, but Sasha was amazing. His track selection kept my attention and I didn't want to leave. I somehow found Arturo in the center of the Sasha crowd and then left to get some food and found Melissa & Tae.
OK, Tiesto was next. I don't know how to describe this. It felt like a scene from Gladiator. We worked our way towards the front of the Arena and the place was going absolutly nuts. If the park could hold 40,000 at least 10,000 people were in that arena. Everyone's hands were in the air and Tiesto just hammered us all. He played some new remix of Midway - Inca, and his extended Die Another Day mix. This will probably be the most memorable electronic music experience of my life.
After Tiesto I tryed staying for Darren Price and got really board. I ran over to see Acosta and caught the end of the Rabbit in The Moon set. I thought their music really sucked, but the show was entertaining. Acosta never showed up, so I tryed Underworld. Underworld was too packed and they stopped letting people inside so I joined John & Melissa for Dave Seaman. Seaman's closing song went on for about 12 minutes and then Guy Ornadel came on. His set was great. I remember hearing Third Earth, Proceed, and several other hard epic trance tunes.
Word of the night = MANGLED The state we all were in during that 2 hours between Ornadel and the end of PVD. Lots of crazy shit happened within that period of time. John can tell the story of his caveman-king kong-james bond stunts and his run in with Helsloot. PVD was more packed than Tiesto and they had the gates blocked. We got lucky and they started letting more people in 30 minutes after PVD started. The vibe once again was fantastic the crowd was going wild. Then at the peak moment of one of his newest tunes the CD hops off track and he couldn't fix it. It took a while for him to build the vibe back but he did it. It was the same tracks he played at Space the night before, but still a memoriable experience. He closed with a new remix of Artic. And this was real funny, they thank the wonderful mayor for holding the event. The mayor, then after lots of debate, agrees to let PVD do 1 more song. I think he encored with Animacion. The night was then over for us.
I heard 4 people ODed at Deep Dish @ Space afterwards. 3 dead and 1 critical.
I hope my story didn't bore anyone. Special thanks to Melissa for the room and Arturo for the ride. Between the both of you we saved like 200 bucks. Me & John went back to Bayfront Park on Monday and took some pictures of the aftermath. It looked like Attack of Water Bottles.
