Sasha, Digweed, Deep Dish, ZABIELA!!!!!, HOWELLS!, Hernan, Nic Fanciulli, Wink, Marco V, Spooky, PVD, Tiesto, Ferry, Tong, AVB, Lawler, the Judge, Jeff Mills, Roni Size, dude...this is rediculous!
So, none of you prolly know me, this will be my first time visiting the UK. I am a law student from Detroit, Michigan and will be spending the summer studying in Rome, Strasbourg, and eventually making my way up to Oxford for the end of July! I shifted my flight back a day and will of course be attending the whole weekend!!!!
I was worried I wouldn't be able to see a euro-style electronic festival but this saved my life. Basically, I will most likely be flying solo, but will hopefully get a chance to meet up and chill with some of you guys. I am flying out of London on the 30th and will be so in debt you will never see me again unless you come visit the U.S. I am hoping I can remember something from the weekend.
I had a few questions for you guys though, maybe someone can answer them for me:
(1) What is the easiest methods for getting from Oxford to Strasbourg-Upon-Avon and then from there to London quick enough for me to make my flight the next day?
(2) Is the VIP worth that extra $50? I don't have a car so parking isn't an benefit. Maybe the beach view? Anybody know from previous years? If you are coming to Detroit this summer for DEMF, I can say from previous experience here that it wasn't worth it, but I was wondering if it was different for Global?
(3) I know the UK scene is rediculous, but honestly why are people bashing a festival with a line-up like this? I live in Detroit where we hold the Detroit Electronic Music Festival, and the amount of money that must have gone into Global's line-up must just be insane. I saw like two dozen djs that I would prolly pay $50 to go see so I have no problem paying twice that to see like 50 of the worlds best!
(4) What is the camping situation? Do people really sleep, or does the music go all night? I hope on not sleeping for two days and then sleeping the whole flight back to Detroit.
(5) THE CHOONS!
Thats it for now, I await any sort of responses.
Thanks guys.
Peace:. |

Train, then maybe bus/taxi, loads of people will be doing the same thing, just hook up with them at the station www.nationalrail.co.uk

I dont get it either, so many people criticising the parties here(long term seratonin depletion i reckon :)), guess we have too much of a good thing over here sometimes. There are 4 festivals with this kind of lineup this year alone, but global is by far the best of them imo. All I can say is global was absolutely awesome last year [my pics], I remember walking past the trance tent at about mid-afternoon, and it was going properly right off, there was about 4 djs i wanted to see and in the end just started dancing and didnt stop for 12hrs. Just good hard trance music all afternoon and night long.

You will need the sleep, think the music stops for a few hours :) I just did the saturday last year and needed 7 nights of 12hr sleep just to recover from the carnage.

Any extra news on how the line ups are split over 2 days?
There is some confusion regarding Tiesto's prescence... unless his latest Magik trick is to be in two places at once... He is going to be performing on 29-07-2006 in Vienna. |
