All i have to say is that space can get the massive ing cock.
got to pvd at around 12:30 last night only to find a huge ing line and see that they weren't letting anyone in -- fire marshall was apparently inside. but the tiest part was that we had those bull passes that apparently have zero worth and we were lumped in with peeps that had passes, tickets, and nothing at all...
we waited until about 1:45 in what was a giant amorphous line that took up half the block and not a single person was let in during that time (we even tried to grease the bouncers to no avail...)
finally, we decided to bounce and go see Zabiela and Desyn Masiello @ Spin but the night took an even tier turn once we got there as none of the advertised dj's showed up. the bouncer told us about how ed space/spin were that night and let us in for free and when we got upstairs we saw why: dj dakota (?) was spinning to a massive crowd of 3 people on the dancefloor and the club was a literal graveyard (pics of the 3 person dancefloor will be posted when i get back to ny).
if anyone knows how to get a portion of the space passes refunded please post here or let me know.
Luis can wipe my ass with his pass

| umm............this is the wmc.....newsflash....lots of global clubbers in town......get there early and beat the lines...personally im glad they werent letting the masses inside, because the club was unusually comfortable. everyone had room to dance, and a fair amount of air to breathe. not trying to come off indifferent and unsympathetic, but if they pack that place so full all the time, and god forbid some accident occurs, it will make the rhode island incident look like a fairy tale. |

No offense but...
Well, you sure coming off as unsympathetic. Plus, these people are already pissed off about their night being ruined so it's probably not a good idea to tell how good it was inside. |

sucks man. i know, i was in that line. we also got there around 12:30, waiting in that horrible line until 2am, then we finally got in. then we were stuck in the opening room cuz the main room was closed off for another hour. even had to wait in line to get into the main room cuz the fire marshall was counting people. but eventually i got up on the terrace when sander came on and that was it. SANDER DROPPED IT SO HARD ALL NIGHT! i swear, i have NEVER heard a more banging set than sander threw down. i couldnt stop dancing the ENTIRE night. stayed until 9am, but still didnt want to leave. sander had me addicted.
it sucked getting in, but honestly, while i was actually inside space i had room to move the entire night. i wasnt a sardine in there like other years, and its because of the fire marshall. SO THANK YOU! i've never had more fun at space, and its all cuz of sander.
i saw pvd for about 2 hours as well when i got there. i thought he was throwing it down pretty hard. he made me remember why i used to love him so much. but still sander > pvd anyday! |

well the reality is that the wmc is known for lines and the copius amounts of clubbers that comprise them. save yourself the inevitable anquish and leave your home early, and although i think it is unfair that some ticket holders didnt get in, it didnt come at the expense and safety of the clubbers who decided to save themselves the impending misery of showing up late. ignoring the fact that there would be a mob of people at the club in line causing random chaos and confusion, doesnt really constitute a sure fire vote in the sympathy department for me. nonetheless im sorry to all clubbers who didnt get in, their defintely should have been better orginazation and delegated employee responsibilites pertaining to club entry. ciao |

That is sound advise, but the point is: space shouldn't be selling people passes that will not be redeemed. Brookyln Bridge, anyone? |

You make it sound like Space didn't want you to get in. Trust me, if they could have everyone inside and be selling them alcohol, they would get everyone inside.
I wasn't there, but it sounds like a up in that they let in too many non-pass holders, and then fire marshall started to exercise control. The FM doesnt give a crap if you have a pass, and space apparently doesnt give a crap if you get there late.
Luis Puig is a notorious , but he is a notorious moneygrubber too. He wants you inside. |

ummm..... i realize it's the wmc but when i shell out considerable change for a pass where the words "guaranteed entrance" and "no wait" are repeatedly plastered across it, i kinda expect to at least enter the freakin' venue. i guess my expectations are unreasonable...
glad you enjoyed yourself tho... |

not to defend space cuz i can honestly can tell u space & there rules but its not there fault. Fire Marshalls by law have to abide by public safety regulations. if a building meets its capacity level they have to stop letting people in. I can tell u i had a horrible experience on thursday for tiesto. i arrived around 1230-1am. i was planning on getting there around 11 or so but ran super late. well i got there and waited for 2-21/2 hours b4 i got inside & made the best of the rest of the night. So friday i decided to be there around 1030pm. they had 2 seperate lines through the general admissions seperating the passport holders & pre-sale tix holders fomr the non tix holders. i didn't wait no more than 10 minutes if that maybe less.

exactly. word to the wise. during WMC arrive early to avoid headaches & fustrations at the lines. I tested that theory on fri for Pvd & got in fast w/ a pre-sale tix. unforturnately for those who like to come in late night, its more difficult to do it during wmc than it is during a reg night. other than that WMC this year was the best i've ever experienced. |

| If they had to abide by the law, then why werent they checking ID's of people. Not one ID was checked when i was going in and there were cops sitting right there.... Space can SUCK A DICK next year!!! |

Man what you are saying is just ridiculous. People bought tickets a month in advance and could not get in to the club. The owners of Space obvisouly overbook the place and most of the time they get away with it. They did not this time and people that were sold ticket way before the conference started did not get in. I can show up anytime I want if I have the ticket and, for all practical purposes, my spot in the club should be there. It is because of people that think the way you think and that will still go to the club after they treat their customers that way that they are still in business. |
