i have to admit, VIP was more worth it last night then any other VIP i have gotten. We walked right in at 6PM, and the two VIP staircases going down to main area were golden. No lines for free drinks all night.
CL and PVD played great, Bennassi was so damn boring, and right in the middle of a great party!!
The sound kept going out in the main room, i wasnt to impressed with it at any point during the night. |

I was wondering where the VIP sections where even placed or what it even got you besides quick entry.
There where bathrooms just up the bleachers that had no line and flushed!
It was really also disturbing to see so many kids high or talking about getting high at this event. But I guess that comes with the all Ages thing. My question is why these events are not 18 and over??? Do they really have to be all ages.:conf:
I heard that tickets at the door where 70!!! Can you imagine getting tickets at the door and having to wait 1.5-3 hours after paying that!!!! :eyes:
My only hope is that now Menno gets a proper set now in La!!! |

I was in front of the line... about 15 feet away from the corner adn it took me about 2 hours to get in.. i really liked how joaquin trainwrecked hard when he turned off hte CDJ. What i didnt like was hearing the same songs over and over again. I heard hte fatboy slim song twice.. cafe del mar twice.. and a few others i remember hearing twice. I really didnt like PVDs set.. i found it really boring and making me sleepy.. and he basically did the same exact thing that eddie did for strut. Benny had some nice tracks but his set was pretty boring too. Moby ing cranked hte volume up like crazy.
Good
Menno
Eddie
Bad
$4 water.
$25 parking
horrendous line.. my friend actually had his nuts checked.. the guy cupped the whole thing and my girl got her boobs fondled.

WOW, I didnt wait that long in line to get in...I was waiting for a friend, that was all we really waited for. It was great to see the looooooooooong exit line off the freeway for both exits. I went 1 exit past, went up to Hoover and drove straight across to MLK and into the parking lot.:stongue: Yea, wtf is up with $25 for parking!!:whip: Anyways, sent my hubby to get the will call tickets while I got guest list, he said the groovetickets will call was insane as well. He just went around the side, work his way to a window since no one was moving, got the tickets, came to the guest list will call window to find me and our friend, played phone/txt tag to find another friend, found him, waited 20 minutes if that and we were in. We didnt enter thru the main gate(the mouth), we entered the gates by the bathroom(gate 4 I believe). EASY! lift your hands up, walk thru, checked my bag(not a good job;) ).
Once we gathered all together(more friends had to be found), we went down to the floor. watched the last bit of Eddie, stayed for a weeeeee bit of CL but then off to see D. Ramirez. He had me going...a little weird to start but then had me going with those sick sounds. Went to see RITM...same show but still good. DAMN, that sound was loud!! I had to stick napkin pieces in my ears. Found more friends as we left that stage! That was great! After chatting, we went back to the floor and caught the last 20 minutes of Benny...didnt care one way or another about that, too busy walking thru ing puddles!!!:whip: Found a great spot for Moby...:eyes: :crazy: :eyes: I just thought he was SICK!!! After dancing, we went to sit in the seats...OMG, that was a bitch to get up those stairs. They should have had alternating staircases going in one direction cuz trying to get up the stairs was a bitch. Sat for rest of Moby(40 minutes) and for the beginning of PVD. After a short while, we went to the floor for the last time. We started to go up the stairs:whip: , grabbed our friend stationed there, then started to head out.
GOOD TIMES!!! an old friend came out, we said HAPPY BIRTHDAY to him at midnight and our group was just having fun! Yes, there were frustrating moments but my fun times totally out weigh those.
Haha, ran into TSG and Karen on the floor and found Malia in the seats.
ok, done. sorry if its rambling like. Fun guys and other things are still messin' with my head.:toothless |

line to get in was terrible. not even a line just a bunch of random ppl trying to get in. giant cluster.
music was mediocre, and crowd was terrible with too many kids. very disorganized event imo.
...on the other hand, the cubitron rocked ing nuts!!!!!!!!!!!!!
having gone to edc for the past 4 years, i think i'm over all ages massives for awhile. they get worse and worse each year. although last year rocked because of the awesome lineup. |

Ya. There was way too many people first of all!! The line was ing enormous but I just did the same thing I do every insomniac event. Go to the very side of the line walk right up to the front and get in.
As far as the dj sets I really wasn't that impressed. I missed Eddie, Menno, and CL which is bull because imo they should have been on way later. Menno from 6:30 - 7:45 WTF is that !!! Menno should have been on right before PVD and Eddie before Menno. Whatever though. I've never seen Moby before and I really thought he did a good job. I really though Benny could have done better too. The guy had the tiest mixes I've heard in a while.
The vibe was pretty cool on the main stage for a lil but then it got kinda stupid towards the end of the night. I then made the decision to try and go find friends and family and that was a disaster. We couldn't find there !!!! And we weren't even on drugs!!! I probably spent 3 hours walking around like a chicken with my head cut off and about 2 hours partying. LLLAAAMMMEEE !!!!
I say this every time but I think this will be the last Insomniac event that I attend. Well if Cosmic Gate is going to be at Noc then that will be the last. LOL. |

Normally i would say youre a bitch but this time around the insomniac crew was just plain retarded. Too many people do what you do and just cause more of a wait in line because people shove all day for no reason. Its getting worse and worse every year for these insomniac events.
YOU HAVE A BANDANA GO IN THE BACK OF THE LINE. What the . They looked everywhere for most people for the first 2 hours or so then realized there was a load of people so they let everyone in fast. My friend said by hte time he got there they opened up a gate and didnt check for anything. They just took his ticket and he was in. |
