Summary

- line up to get in was crazy. they need a more efficient way. luckily I got in just before the rush so we only waited about 15mins.

- coat check at the end of the night was stupid. We waited about 30mins and that was only because one of the girls cousins were at the front of the line. It would have taken well over an hour if we actually waited in line.

- i really liked the venue, it was just the right size in my opinion. The washroom line up was weird. The guys washroom had about 15min wait and the girls washroom was completely empty? odd
--the venue size was great. Having a concert too big sometimes isn't the greatest

- The sound was ok. I wish it was a little louder only because towards the back and sides of the stage you couldn't really get the full experience. They only had speakers in the front I believe which was really dumb. They should have put speakers in the back and sides as well.

- water was $4 and they didn't even give you a lid for it.. kind of annoying. probably spent about $40 on water...

- And why would anyone leave the main area during LEVELS? it's so effing annoying. We're jamming out and people are trying to make their way out? daaaaaaaaa fcukkkk

- The best part was probably seeing so many people. I saw people I haven't seen in years. From highschool to work to random people i've met along the way. And everyone was so damn happy
--oh and the amount of white girls there =DDDDDDDDDDDDD haha, that was a nice surprise.
---too many tall white guys though, haha. For an asian who is 5'8" it's difficult if one of these guys are in front of you. But, i'm not complaining it was a wicked night.

------------------------

So this was my first event. And it was simply amazing.
I swear, if you havent' been to one of these before the energy in the room was amazing. for my first time, it was insane!

HOWEVER, did anyone else think Avicii wasn't that good? Don't get me wrong, I had a great time, but I didn't think he wasn't as good as he could have been. I felt his timing was off on a lot of songs and his "show" presence wasn't there (maybe that was due to the venue's equipment?)
What really got to me was the way he dropped Levels. Which is by far one of his biggest songs.. And he dropped it so casually. I've heard it dropped way better at caprice with their house dj...

Can anyone who has been to his other shows comment on the quality of this one?
And I wish Avicii played the whole night. R3hab wasn't that good imo, but cazzette was pretty good. The night ended way too young..

I would love to go to Tiesto NYE, but I can't really justify spending $150 for a ticket.. oh well.
