I've said it once and I'll say it again. The Kennedy is the worst venue I've ever been to for an EDM event. And why spend the money to bring a 'big room' Legend in like Coxy and stick him in a craptastic lounge? Too many other places in the Bay area this should be held at. My .02

I don't think its the worst ever. It is what it is. This is the Tampa Bay area with very fickle crowds so just to have Cox here is a good thing.

I've been to three events there, and the only reason I went last time was because I wasn't gonna miss Digweed in my backyard. It's not designed to be a dance club. There's no room to move since the bar takes up over half of the floor and the sound is always too low. Not to mention, over half of the clowns at this event won't even know who the hell Carl Cox is b/c of the type of crowd that club brings. I can think of 5 locations just off the top of my head that this event would be much much better at

The Kennedy blows for this type of event, I have no clue why they continue to book EDM shows there. Czar would be ideal.

have you guys been to the Kennedy since it was remodeled? They like cut the bar in half/pushed it way far back. There is a big dance floor now. way bigger than the venue, HPC, or any other venue we have in the bay area.
I went the last time to see Digweed and the room and sound were spot on.
IMO it is one of the better venues to see a DJ now, besides the d bags that go there.
