Well I had a ty night on saturday I ended up getting spiked in the Godskitchen Arena at about 7pm in the middle of fergies set. It Spoilt my whole night and I didn't get to see anyone after Jules because I had to leave at about 8:40pm. I was really ill and had to go back to my tent to sort myself out.
It was nice meeting Martyn and his friend, sorry I had to give yah the news about PVD set... your faces dropped immediately after that. Also gutted I didn't get to do a proper TA meetup or catch up with martyn later on in the night.
I probably had a better night on friday. I saw tiesto's set and actaully enjoyed it :)
For me though the best set I heard was from Matt Hardwick, he played his set in GK at aruond 4pm I think with some really wonderful uplifting trance. I think he dropped Super8 - Get Off, which just really made me happy :0
Oh well I'll be back next year guys
Gonna go cry about missing all the other sets now :( |

Yes indeed, I think they just swapped the systems round from last year's Radio 1 stage, because last year, Radio 1's stage sounded e, but was apparantly really good this year, and sounded pretty good the couple of times I walked past.
Oh, and I've got three of my photos online so far! Loads more to come when I've sorted out a proper gallery:
It's great having a big pro-looking camera, girls are just happy to pose for you!
Pretty bubbles!
Fireworks for Armin! |

| damn.... the first 2 globals were wicked tis a shame they have deteriorated so bad. my advice is to pay the money make the effort and get your asses to holland. mysteryland, dance valley, defqon 1, sensation, qlimax, trance energy... the options are endless. |

I think people should have written their reviews after catching up on some sleep lol - some pretty negative things have been said!
It was my first time at GG and I spent it all in the GK tent apart from a few hours spent checking everwhere else out before it got dark.
Yes the sound was quiet for an hourish in the GK tent but then it got sorted when Armin was on - and the sound was better than the 2nd biggest tent (Accelerated Culture).
The tent leaking when it rained cooled us all down the only problem was the DJ stuff getting wet but they put a canopy over it all eventually, apart from the lights and sound going for abit the rest of the time the tent was exstatic!
I stayed from 3PM Saturday till 5AM Sunday the weather was wet at night but under the tent it was fine, the main stage had the best outdoor sound system I've heard - Shapeshifters played a banging housey set.
Heres a brief rundown of the sets I was there for:-
(20:00 – 21:00) Judge Jules [Confirmed]
Wicked set- loads of classics played, A melodic tune with female vocals and a piano I've never heard before was amazing, anyone hear it?! It was quite chilled out but had a great melody.
(21:00 – 22:30) Ferry Corsten
Not bad too much LEF for me as usual
(22:30 – 00:00) Paul Oakenfold
Wicked set!
(00:00 – 01:30) Armin van Buuren
Not bad some current and older classics
(03:30 – 04:30) Eddie Halliwell
V.hard and messed allot with the CDJ's.
Heres a few pics, all outside ones of when we got there, my freind ran off with his camera to the DnB tent for the rest of the night.



All in all i enjoyed it, not sure if i'de ever stay there, now I want to go the the european festivals where trance is celebrated even more, so Dance Valley is on the cards I think! |

Haha, my mate just informed me of something quite funny. He left my house in Stafford yesterday afternoon to travel back to Ipswich, and he happened to have Dave Pearce on on Radio 1, and he was talking about Global, and people were phoning in and telling him what they thought the best set was. Someone phoned up and said "Hello Dave, well I though Paul van Dyk played a blinding set" Dave Pearce said something like "Thanks for calling in, so Paul made your night did he?" the caller said "Yeah".
Twats. |

LOL
I actually heard some girl behind me shout "Go Paul!" during Armin's extended set.
I guess some people really follow set times to the letter :happy2: |

I must admit i used to listen to Daves show back in the day, but now the people who call in to his show are so ing stupid, half of them couldnt find there ass with both hands.
Also stupidly easy questions get answered wrong.
Then they shout on the phone "C'MON.......LETS AVE IT"

was it armin who played it? i thought he had left by then. and the whole stage was darkened and then a cd version ( i say that cos For an Angel seemed to be coming out of smaller speakers instead of the larger ones at the side)
