Innovation Review by DJ MESSY
These are a few points I have come up with about the Innovation (inno) holiday and how to make it better.

1. There were too many people... inno should not sell as many (if any) tickets on the door. My mate was told he could not come in to the club one night because it was too full. WTF is that all about? He paid his full amount for the week holiday. Inno should know how many people they are letting into the club...

2. The boat party was not as good as last years. The boat was too small and the sound system was crap. There was no food on the boat either

3. The club is a bit small, but as the inno ravers are familiar with the town and club I dont think this needs to change

4. The 4-star upgrade was a waste of time. I didnt even notice why the hotel (royal star) was classed as a 4-star hotel. More like 4-square!

5. INSIST THAT THE MANAGERS PUT ON THE AIR CONDITIONING! we all know that they were just trying to fleece the ravers for more drinks, but its ridiculous. its way too hot in there.

6. Try to put as many ravers in the same hotel as possible. We all know that the hotel staff dont like us because we are too loud and rude, so if we are all together there is less chance that we'll annoy the locals/other holiday makers.

7. Put the DJ's on the balcony at the top (above the door) so that there is more room for people in the club, instead of blocking off the whole stage.

8. Now on to the music... where do i start...
Drop the themed nights!! Just mix up all the djs! or have a few dj's from each clique/label each night. The prob with the themed nights is, if you dont like a particular type of dnb (liquid/tech...) ur gonna have a shit night, and you might not even want to go the rave. However if you mix if up a bit there is something for everyone each night.

9. Bring a better sound system! It was ok this year but could have been a lot better.

10. Rent the club next door (if possible) and put on something a bit different such as: up and coming room, or jungle room to give different people a chance to shine (such as myself. he he) NOT HOUSE/GARAGE/HIP HOP tho. this will bring the wrong crowd. ITS DNB remember!

Despite the fact that some of these points sound negative I had a really good time on the holiday and I am looking forward to next year. If I have anymore suggestions i will edit this post.
Thanks for reading. Bo

Hmmm wat u on Lady Mace, it was the best bloody holiday i'd had for years!! Could of done wit a better beach tho, didn't like the old cat litter beach business. Apart from that BANG ON. Wish i'd known how easy it was to get to Barca tho, would've been nice to have a little day trip, and i missed the catamaran which looked heavy. Next year, next year...

WE didnt ave any trouble with accomadation just wiv our tickets before we left england. but they put us up in a 4* a bit out the way but really plush digs. Defo gunna book privatley next year tho. Big inno boys had a heavy week. Mampi killed it at the end!!!

i was thought about going 4* next year but surely its better going 3* coz there full of ravers and you meet fuck loads off people and go in to each others rooms after raving and stuff. coz i would imagine the 4* would'nt have had that many ravers in or the would tolerate the noise as much?

What can I say.........it was crap. It was a sham. The destination was crap, the club was crap, it was repatitive and boring. It was also full of idiots. Waste of money and time.

mental! the upsides to the holiday EASILY out way the upsides!

I'm right wiv ya Lady Mace!!..1st and def the last Inno!!

..Ollie tell em to sort it outf!!.. expectin "guests" to pay 5€ for a small bottle of water...at least u asked the owner to lower his prices...supose fillin bins full of the 40cent supermarket bottles free for people to drink was completely out of the question?.. i'm surprised Inno haven't got more power in a venue that you fill to capacity every night for a week yr after yr?!!!!!

did u get lost and end up at skegness instead of inno???
It's quite ironic how you still managed to c the similarities between the 2 places both in terms of entertainment and accomodation!...

Hat's off 2 all of you who enjoyed the week, shame there's far 2 many people out there who didn't... 3k ravers went, only a handful can be bothered to post a positive comment on this thread, i would av expected a lot more - speaks volumes!!

Inno - do the decent thing and sort if out for next yr so at least those williing to return and embrace Innno '08 get what they deserve!...

If that sort of thing is what you all enjoy then good for you but its definately not my thing. I know what I like and that wasn't it. The organisation was crap, some people were idiots and I couldn't be bothered with it all.

Sounds like you ada right shit time- coulda been organised bit better, few dickheads were out there, but no more than I see in most raves anyway!! u jus gotta allow that shit tho!

in my opinion, the club was bangin, the sets were spot on, tunes were BIGG, weather was lush, beach bar was avin it, every1 was sweet, bars and alcohol was cheap, hotel was full of safe ppl, foam party was siiiick, vibes were gud....need i carry on?!?!

Fkn roll on next year!!!!

why go on a drum and bass raving holiday if u don't enjoy it????

I think the ppl made a lot of the holiday, i linked with some fucking wicked ppl, they helped make the holiday what it was for me!!

Yeah they were some downs to the holiday as every1 will say, but if i went with a positive attitude and just looked at the majority of it being wicked and forgot about the few shit things?

I didnt even think it was that bad... werent exactly sumwhere I wud go on hol normally but it did the job!!!

So many people on ere came back an said it was propa shit compared to last year an that they probli wouldn’t go back next year. Was my first year out there so I cant compare it to the last but there isnt too much I can think of that could have made that holiday any better!!

Few little raves durin the day woulda been good but that’s bout it!!!
