Sooo happy I chose the intimate venue over a big arena rave. So many good vibes from everyone last night and the DJs fucking rockeddddd. Does anyone know any of the tracklists for the frenchmen's sets last night? Too many good tracks I don't know who to give my money to on Beatport (if they're even there yet). Gary?
I chose TAO over HARD NYE just for Wolfgang Gartner...unfortunately I kind of wish I went to HARD, because TAO was a clusterfuck. The parking lots filled up early, I had to park in a neighborhood nearby, and I got mugged on the walk back to my car. The lines were terrible, and going from one stage to another was a bitch.
In comparison, I had the time of my life at HARD NYE '10, with Boys Noize/Mehdi/A-Trak. I think most people who love the music will agree that a smaller venue or event is usually better (so long as it's not over-sold). IMHO, when it comes to HARD vs. Insomniac, HARD blows 'em out of the water.
So keep it coming! Thank you guys for keeping your events about the quality of the experience, and not just the largest volume of ticket sales, or the biggest, most epic lineup evar. I would love to see more smaller, single-stage shows!
Yea to hell with TAO... Great lineup but i am not trying to fight crowds of party goers to get a chance to enjoy the music i like... Last time i went to TAO i asked a group of people who they had come to see and they didnt realize there were live Dj's on stage.
Never again.
On a side note... The Fonda is where i first saw Simian Mobile Disco's Live act some years back. Hopefully their Nokia performance will be epic!
