| Welp, looks like I'm going to be unloading my ty "floor" seats and going to ABGT instead. Who the hell puts seats on the floor? You could probably sell more tickets without risers taking up all the space. Now I know to never attend events at MSG. If I don't sell these tickets this is going to be a very expensive lesson. |

Don't worry I'm sure some #trancefamily member will pay you triple to go to this.
P.S. Why the did they put seats on the floor that are just fold up chairs? Why not just make the entire floor area a pit instead? |

| Sold out, wow. This is some funny , I can't help but smile. Wtf is going on with this scene, the same guys like A&B and AVB whose shows were going from $40-60 less than 2 years ago & were never sold out for months are now selling out arenas in minutes with tkt prices starting at 140. Amazing stuff. I'll be saving my hundreds & playing a Max Graham Cycles episode on my home theater & having more fun. |

lol if I can get triple the amount for these tickets then I'm off to Den Bosch.
Exactly what I was thinking. I guess it might be a fire hazard to have too many people standing, but I went to a Radiohead concert at Prudential Center and they used the entire floor as a pit. I don't understand. |

I don't doubt it, same thing happened with Prydz at Roseland and Tiesto in AC for NYE. |

Honestly, I have seen photogs (at a wedding nonetheless) with top of the line equipment and lenses and the pics look liked I could have taken them with a better point and shoot. Its how you use the equipment, eye, creativity of the photog rather than the cam itself. |
When you're shooting in an environment that is completely dark, like inside a club, area, or night time festival, the equipment is a HUGE factor. If you're walking around with a T2i(which I see all the time) you're not getting anything worth a , even with that crappy Chinese flash they have sitting on it. Everything over ISO600 on those bodies looks like .
You need a fast shutter speed to capture lasers and lights without it looking like a giant mess, so you're going to have to crank that ISO up, and the sub $2000 bodies just fall apart at those levels, let alone an entry level Christmas present from mom. Someone walking around with a 1DX is going to have infinitely better results just simply on the fact that they can crank that ISO while keeping a fast shutter speed. And lenses are everything. It seems like 80% of people are walking around with kit lenses and variable apertures. Those are pieces of , I don't care what you're shooting or how skilled you are. For events you need a good wide angle, and you're spending at least $1,000 for that.
Gear is a huge factor, but skill is just as important. I think they should definitely start cutting the amount of photographers by a lot, and definitely use equipment as filtering method, because anyone with skill is probably going to have a decent body and lens.
As for this event, I am sure it was bought to all hell by scalpers. They love this , especially after SHM tickets went through the roof at MSG. I hope they all lose their asses. |
