Nightmare weekend- 2 and half hour queue to get in on the saturday if you were on guest list. Soulwax were not on the live stage like the flyer said and had been moved to another tent but were playing at the same time as Justice so did not get to see them. When the main stage got closed Pendulum were moved also to the same time as Justice and Chemical Brothers did not play at all. Security were rubbish and really were not searching people at all to start with, someone got in with a knife and stabbed someone in the drum and bass tent on the saturday so that was closed all weekend. Also heard about someone od'ing in one of the other tents on the saturday so that tent was closed on the saturday. No organisation at all and prices took the mic - was really let down :-(

Not a let down for me at all..was my first time at a dance festival and loved every moment of it..ok maybe not the wind rain and mud but that was only on the sunday and u cant help the weather!!! yea it did suck that the chemical bros didnt play but again if their stuff broke cos of weather it cant be helped!! I thort security were ok they seemed to search pretty damn well when we got in..had sniffer dogs and everything!! :s and lets face it as much as its sad that guy died ur always gna get people that over do it at these kinds of events! i saw people off their nuts at 5 in the evening!! and ur never gona stop drugs at festivals!!! highlights of the weekend for me were the two pauls....van dyk and oakenfold!!!! absolutly smashed it!!!! AMAZING!!!check out the youtube vids and see for yourselves! :)

the whole time we were there from 9pm saturday through to 2pm monday afternoon we never saw 1 dog. Festivals normally always have dogs but it was not that that I was complaining about. I came in and out of the festival numerous times and they never once opened and looked in my bag or searched me.

and lets face it as much as its sad that guy died ur always gna get people that over do it at these kinds of events!

Someone getting stabbed is not someone over doing it - that takes the mick and no one should have been able to get into that festival with a knife if security were doing there jobs properly.

yea is awful bout the knifing..didnt realise that happend..i was talking bout the guy that od. Spose there is just so many people coming in that its impossible to search everyone thoroughly. But then they should hire more security!
shame u had a bad experience....u must of had some good times?? theres always global in july..tho heard that was badly run last year!

That is alwful that someone got stabbed its a sad crazy world now that you cant go to a event and feel completley safe. maybe if they had more dogs on and security and maybe some
security cameras that may make people feel more safe.

ive heard that last year this event was ran better than global

I'm a bit confused cos people are sayin the guy that died either got stabbed or od! neway is bad either way (worse if he got stabbed tho!) Have to say I thought everyone was nice and friendly, I didnt stay late when all the wrongans are out! didnt come across any myself! maybe there wernt many! or maybe im one of them!! haha ...this was the first time gatecrasher have done a two day fest! by the looks of it most peeps are sayin it was better than global!!! the weather did make sunday suck a little.........bring on ibiza and the baleric sun thats all im sayin!!! :D
