The set was mediocre. PVD used to be fucking badass, and now every set for the past few years has been drab. Yes, it was actually good, don't get me wrong, but if someone was expecting a night of their life for $40 + fees, they didn't get it.
Now... for all of you hating Opera and the crowd, I have to put my foot down. I've been to WMC in Miami, I've been to the Love Parade in Berlin, and a shit ton of shows in Atlanta since '99. Please, don't become grumpy old people. The crowd was just like any place where there were tons of people packed into a small space. If you wanted to dance, there were places, just not in the center. If you wanted cheap drinks, don't go to clubs like that, or at least don't expect it on a night like that. For christ's sake don't get mad that people bump into you. That's just the way this shit goes down.
I was disappointed about the other night, but just because of the music. As an "old" person (I'm 26) I think the best events have come and gone for this type of shit, but I can only imagine that for some people it was an amazing night and they didn't give a f**k about no free tap water; you go to the sink for free tap water like any other person wanting free water, you pay for drinks at a bar like any club patron, you get bumped into by any person at a sardine-packed arena, and you have an amazing time because of the people you're with, the loud music, and the recklessness of youth. |
I agree with you on the set. It was good, not amazing. I do have a problem with your assesment of the place though. I certainly understand that places will get crowded especially for a dj this big. I also would understand someone accidently bumping me as they passed or bumping me and then realizing they need to watch it. The problem is that the same people kept knocking into me and didn't have the courtesy to step off me. I had a guy, who had plenty of room around him, practically leaning on me until I finally gave him a push. I also had a girl who kept swinging her arms like a fool and she kept hitting me. You'd think after hitting me once, she'd realize maybe she should watch it, but no. I understand some people like to dance and that's fine. The bottom line is, if you don't have room to do your crazy arm swinging dances without hitting people while you're doing it, either go somewhere else or stop. Respect the people around you is all I'm asking and it seems none of the people there understand that.
