This is the best thread ever. Really enjoying it. But if you think you
had
problems getting into this massive than you should count your lucky stars
you
weren't at Circa 97 at the Grand Olympic when about 10 thousand people who
paid didn't even get in and a full scale riot broke out. Ahhh those were the
days.

I'm going to have to agree with Brett here on this.  Every
time I go to a
football game, unless you're there an hour early, you might
have to wait 45
minutes in line.  And they're simply checking a ticket, and
maybe a few
purses and bags.  They don't have to pat people down to screen for
drugs or
weapons.  And I'm glad for that.  The last massive I attended was a
new
years
eve party where someone was stabbed probably 100 feet from me.
There's only
so fast they can go when safety and the law are taken into
consideration. 
Besides, people wait 2 hours to ride space mountain, and
this
is way more fun
than that.

O.K..I think there is something that all you should know about
massives
and are not taking into consideration. Most of the promoters and
partiers
on here only do and go to small parties. So, check this out.
A few
of
you keep bitching about how long it took to get into the party
(ie. 3
hours+)
but you need to understand crowds..
When you are doing a large party
20k+
people, you try to figure out how to
get in the most amount of people
per hour
into your party with searching
etc..
Monster had at least 50k+
people there
and that takes time to get them in.
It does not matter how many
times you have
run at a venue, you can only do
what is humanly possible.
If
you get in 5000+
people an hour(they were probbably doing more than
that)
then you are doing a
good job.
A massive is not the same as doing a concert
or a USC football
game.  You
have to search in shoes, Bra's, belt's, purse's,
backpacks, etc.
and you
need to make sure they are not getting in fire arms,
drugs, etc. You
cant
stop everything but you have to have the security do the
best possible
job. Or as the promoter, you are liable and can be sued later
by patrons,
or
parents or both. I know because B3 has been sued for this very
thing.
So, You
guys should back off of how long it took to get in. It's
bullshit
to keep
talking shit on the promoter when they did the best they can
with
the best
security company in the business(CSC).
If they got in 5000pp
an hour that
still means that at 9pm, they still
needed to get in 35,000+
people- that is
not an easy task!
So, everyone needs to recognize that Reza
did the best
possible job and
standing in line just comes with the territory!
STOP ALL THE
BITCHING!  I am pretty sure most people at the event had a
good
time or they
wouldnt keep showing up.
I have no invested interest in go
ventures parties
but i do like to throw
big parties and it just sucks that
everyone keeps
ripping the promoter
when they have no clue how to do an
event. Especially you
promoters that
have never thrown a party over 2000 pp.
It's a joke to listen
to everyone
"dis" when they havent ever pulled heads
and probably never will.
It's not easy, so give him a break and like my mom
always said "If you
dont
have something nice to say- Dont say it all".
peace
brett
