People who have been to the NOS:
I can almost guarantee you dont know what's in store for the venue this year, no matter how many times you've been there.
They are opening the ENTIRE venue... this includes the SPEEDWAY which is as big as the total area of the "half venue" that has been used for the last 9 years.
Most people who have been to the NOS think they were covering the entire venue. This is not the case, you've probably seen about 40% of the venue. Insomniac is going to absolutely blow the roof off this one. They now have the technology and the excessive money to put a production value into their parties that is ridiculously higher than anything that has ever been done before.
I heard they wont even use one of the crappy airplane hangers as a stage (the one that was always hot and sweaty, and smelled like nasty ass Vicks, lol) because they have so much room to do anything they want now.
Nocturnal 08 is going to be to Nocturnal, what EDC 2008 was to EDC.
Aka, the one with the highest production value and effort put into it, by far.
The Orange Show will barely be recognizable.
(All this is coming from someone who hated insomniac for multiple years and just recently came to the conclusion they deserve ALL the money they charge for how expensive their new parties are to throw).
I'm not a promoter in any way for them but I run the main so cal rave messageboard and they will tell me whatever I ask usually.. Ill post the full lineup here soon.
