Yeah, just keep trying to look past the negatives year after year while continously spending $60-$75 for a piss poor event. I did MM from 2004-2006 and after last year I promised myself that I would never attend another MM because I did exactly what you said; I gave my full attention to every DJ that I wanted to see but that's near impossible to enjoy while 15 year olds are all around sitting on the floor. And, when they're not on the floor, they bumrush to the front like ing little mice trying to find cheese and they don't care about their sweaty bodies or their adolescent minds getting in the way of others. These crowds absolutely KILL the enjoyable atmosphere.
Like a bunch of us said weeks prior to Monster Massive: Don't waste your money on this crap event! However, nobody chooses to listen and I'm especially surprised to all the people that are over 21 years old that attended Monster Massive over two other great nights in Hollywood. Please explain to me how you could choose Kiddies on Crap Massive over Eric Prydz. Those drugs must've been real good for you guys!
First off... I live in SD... and just saw Eric... in fact talked with him during the night prior... so that's why I chose MM.
Generally speaking... a massive set is more energy ridden than a club set... club sets tend to be more melodic and progressive. So it really just depends on who you are looking for and what kind of mentality you go into an event having. For me... I don't have to be in the front to enjoy a set... music is music and travels distances without great change (at least auditory distances). So I sat in the stands and listened to DJs I wanted to see spin energetic sets and listened and rocked out my own way.
Now... as for the constructive comment I made earlier. Pretty simple: You would have to be a fool to think everything is going to be great for the entire time at any event you go to. For every positive there is some sort of negative, and it boils down to allowing yourself to overcome those negatives. When I read the post... it felt more like a flaming of the thread than anything constructive about the event. So really... no... they aren't contradictory statements.

A vid I got of Armin spinning big sky... Of course the tube messed the sound quality up a bit..

goddamn to many kiddies there. 18+ from now on. cuz the majortiy of these kids have no idea who any of the djs, they just want a place to get ed up. thats just rediculous.
Armin set:
John O'Callaghan ft Audrey Gallagher - Big Sky
Tranquility Base - Buzz
Then i heard him play, Breakfast- The Horizon but idk if it was third. Thats all i can remember.
But i thought it was epic when he dropped adaigo for strings.
Axwell and Angello threw down. wayyy legit.
Overall the dj's spun good sets but the amount of people and kids killed.
the line up was not anything spectacular anyways imo. dont all you guys just go to these massives to get ed up and have fun with friends, that why i go. if it was choice about the music i def wouldve gone some place else. everyone complaining about push, you all know this happens every year, its part of it, who cares, just have fun.:p

Couldn't ing work today, listened to ASOT 323 and it brought me back to the ing night!! :eyespop:
I seriously wonder how long it's gonna take me to get over it. I loved Armin's set so much!
Anyone have TRACKLIST? I wanna burn CD with his set and listen to it, having flashbacks, cause it's hard to remember every moment :crazy:
Oh and if anyone spotted the kid with blue flashing earrings and light up shades, I was also on friend's shoulders for a few times, crowd spraying everyone (with 2 water bottles) toward the end. Was ing good :D

I just really wish that the kids these days would learn some etiquette. You go to a 21+ or even 18+ event and there's a just an understanding of how to behave at these types of events. I couldn't tell you how many times I felt like schooling some of these 16 yr olds about how not to stiff arm or push over people just to get another 5 ft closer to the stage.
I think the kids are kind of getting a bit of a bad rap here. There were plenty of pushy people & puddle people who clearly weren't kids. And there were plenty of kids who were friendly to me (and I'm an old timer). People were plenty pushy at Nocturnal and that was 18+.
That said, there seemed to be a lot more puddles than at other recent massives I've been to. The Sports Arena has plenty of seating, use it. And the thing that bugged me the most is all the smokers on the dance floor. That's something you don't see much of in the clubs.
No one knows what version of Adagio Armin played?

does anyone have the tracklist for armin?

Kandy kids really dont bother me...they are harmless. At least good for a giggle. I dislike the folks that look like they're too tough to have a good time.
