i see where you are coming from deadly as far as getting there on time and all that shit...but when i buy presale tickets to an event and i want to go to other parties (because thats what wmc is all about, party hopping) i feel like i should be able to get into a club without having to bribe bouncers

but maybe im just dumb and dont know how shit should be handled

and i agree that the comment refering to miami hating on trance is ridiculous...thats just dumb...it seems like this was just bouncers being greedy and taking money at the door because they could

you're right... what parkwest did was perfectly fair, it was our fault it ended up like this. how dare us not showing up 2 hours pre opening of the club.

All those thoughts, however, were put to rest once armin went on. The lights and sound and decor and crowd and music were ALL on point. The fact that the place was small is what ended up making this one of the best parties of conference. It was a very intimate venue to see armin and markus, and for most of the night there was not one person who was not completely into it. The vibe was most certainly awesome. At the height of the excitement, the so called vip area all but cleared out as people wanted to join the madness on the dance floor. I can see how a long wait outside might put one out of the right mindset for the evening, but the energy in that room was rediculous......

Markus for 5 hours FTW!!!
pretty sure i was standing next to u for a bit....early in the night....was with a few asian girls.....

one of the girls with us didnt have a ticket and decided she wanted to go to the armada party, so we left ultra at about 11:15....dropped her at the door and we went to the car to change.......door tickets at that point were going for 120......line was about 10 deep.....someone ended up selling her a ticket for 75 bucks and we were in like flynn.....especially since the head door guy thought i played for the Packers!! LOL......epic....

looks like Parkwest was pretty desperate at WMC. I had heard they might be closing it down but never heard why.

quote:
Well this isn't exactly breaking news, but everyone knows Louis Puig and Parkwest fell into some hot water with the city of Miami after it was discovered that the venue was operating without a liquor license. Allegedly the operators of the club presumed that Space and Parkwest were one building, therefore only one license was necessary. It seemed that city bureaucracy was keeping Parkwest managers and employees guessing as to whether they would be open for Conference, there was even talk of moving all the events to the former Life Downtown venue -- which opened during WMC as the new venue 90 Degrees. Alas, at the last minute when it seem they were being punished for their oversight, a liquor license was obtained and WMC went off without a hitch, much to the relief of absolutely everyone involved.

I bought 3 tickets for the Yoshitoshi event at Space, and was never allowed in. We got there at 2 and yea its kinda late, but I bought the all night ticket and that didn't matter. I just e-mailed them for a refund and if they do not do that, I'm doing a charge back on my card.

Some pf you people need to look up building regulations and fire codes. Park west was at capacity for the LEGAL allowed amount of people was alloowed in there at once. Every venue Over sells the club out. because it will hold more than that, its just not the legal limit. Say Parkwest legal limit was 450 people then you can probably fit 1100 people in there. now for some reason the fire marshall showed up and did not allow them to exceed the LEGAL limit.

Its not exactly Park west fault the fire marshall showed up here and did this as every club in miami over sells the club to make more money. it just so happened that park west took the raping that night.

yes some of you may have lost out on your presale tickets. you should be refunded by want tickets or groovetickets or so on. some things are out of our control and the clubs control.
