The gig itself was absolutely dissapointing. El Hornet played the most worst set, nothing to get the crowd going apart from the first few tunes at the beginning. There was a pyrotechnic DiZplay(excuse the pun) which made everyone shit themselves when it went off. Bit cool, but cheesy at the same time. Shy FX also played a very uninspiring set. And the sound was not really up to the normal standards metroz usually has. Was expecting much more from Pendulum. The track selection was boring me to tears. Sucks to everyone who couldn't get in. Luckily i got back in after coming back out at around 11ish to give a friend a ticket and i could already see the line down the street. Got back in did a wonder around and went to the sky bar balcony and the line was huge. Looked like it went all the way back to Old Berlin.
Only one good thing to say about the event, was that MC VERSE dropped in after Innercity and MC'd all the way thru Pendulum's set which was a plus. At the end of the set VERSE did explain to everyone that there had been a big fuckup and told the crowd that there was gonna be another gig to be held next Friday. Bit pointless telling everyone that got in, but i guess they would want to get a decent crowd for the Friday gig as well.
What was meant to be one of the biggest DnB events of the year, turned out to be somewhat of a failure. Andy C and Pendulum @ Boxing Day Bash was 1000 times better.
