Totally agree For example DJ Dazee puts on just as good a show as the likes of Goldie The Temple have got it sussed, they never fill the venue, there’s always plenty of room to dance

A great dance festival, like a great nightclub is less about the line up and more about the environment. Less big names means a more distributed crowd and will save the bookers money. Boomtown have this nailed on. Its basically the SEC for 80,000 people. In my opinion the best thing SEC could do is book lesser known artists. I love dance music but care much less about catching a DJ than a live act. At 3am all you want is space, good tunes and good sound. I feel BT have embraced this and used the money elsewhere to create a better environment. I'm guessing here, but BT has one massive stage (used to be called Bang Hai) that hosts tier 2 dance acts and can hold about 30-40,000 people. The 4-5 medium stages circa 3-4,000 hold tier 3 dance acts or more extreme genres and the 20-30 small venue 1-200 hold up and coming DJ's in cool venues. Each offsets popularity of artists with a better environment. -

That Levels queue was so stupid. I was in it for Shygirl, assume most were for Dove. The Q did a u turn before the final bit before you get in & everyone was just joining the Q at that point, skipping 95% of the Q. All it needed was another fence on the left side of people, so people could not just walk up and join it. Nobody seemed to be in any mood to call out the jumpers. Also they picked such a weird spot for where you actually went in, a middle gap, compared to the far left like last year. It was just very frustrating having 10 security on the inside of the the Q, who couldn't care how much chaos was outside of their view. Hard to explain in words that bit. A single person standing on the other side of the Q could have done something to deter & prevent chancers doing what they did. So when I rocked up Friday for KLO into CXCX, I did as I was taught. Pretended I was another dumbfounded punter looking at the crazy Q, walked to the front, starting walking back & then just stood next to some people who probably never even noticed me and the gf. Not proud of it, but after experiencing the chaos day prior, we thought we'd paid our dues to the Q gods. They did fix it somewhat on Friday, moving the entrance to the furthest left gap. Some logic was found overnight. Again, all you need is a fence on the Left side of where people are if you are trying to accomplish anything. Why is there a fence on the RIGHT when that's where the wall of the venue is. Worst part was that at both times, as soon as we got in, it felt like the place was around 50% cap. So why are they making us Q 45mins + for a half empty venue. It just often feels like lessons are not carried over one fest to the next in some cases. The ONLY bonus I'll can find for SH, I don't think any of their stages ever experienced a "Shutdown" like Greenpeace or IICON, so yay for that?
