calm the fuck down, FFS
i will agree that monster massive was WAY overcrowded and the majority of people i saw there were of the younger generation that just didn't give a fuck. i don't think i saw a single person that wasn't fucked outta their minds but never have i encountered such a careless group of people. enyay, you're right, people were sweaty, grimy and didn't give a shit if they bumped into you and when they did, they didn't apologize. i got smashed inbetween a crowd of people, got picked up and started moving without my feet even touching the ground. i'm a small girl so it was pretty scary but as soon as i touched the ground again, i didn't even bother trying to go outside to the dnb area.
i'm going to say that TAO may get pretty crowded but it definitely won't be as packed as MM was, that's for sure. there are way too many events going on for NYE, TAO is merely an option. giant may have a 21+ policy but IMO, that just means more drunks will be around than high school kids fucked up on E. i can't speak for everyone but i don't tolerate raging drunks too well.
