| Hunter Renslow 18.07.2012 | Sadly the media totally wanted to drag the event through the mud! I know there were 9 people out of 45000 injured but it really wasn't the war zone the media made out. Since that gig I have listened to so many people rant about that gig, worst of all most that I've heard weren't even there. On the other hand there have been a few well written pieces about the day in question. Here they are if anyone's interested http://djjohngibbons.blogspot.ie/201...k-fallout.html Here is another piece by the Godfather of the Irish electronic scene - Mark Kavanagh Saturday's concert at Phoenix Park was not, despite reports elsewhere, a rave. It was a concert featuring four chart-topping pop artists and an emerging Irish rock band. The concert was bound to be a sell out appealing to a wide variety of people. Among the 45,000 revellers in attendance were TV stars such as Glenda Gilson, radio hosts such as Ray Shah and gorgeous models such as Nadia Forde and Emma Quinlan. Also attending the concert, unfortunately, were a couple of dozen young thugs intent on causing trouble, picking pockets, starting fights, using knives. This has as much to do with teenage male hormones as it has to do with the combination of good weather, alcohol consumption and the drugs reportedly being taken. But 60 years after rock |

I saw SHM when they played in Sheffield just after the release of 'One', when Axwell/Ingrosso/Angelo had only just officially collaborated under the SHM title. The gig was amazing, way up there with some of the best evening s I've had. Crowd was great, laid back fans just dancing away, no trouble. good times. I had liked the stuff by each individual DJ anyway so was looking forward to it, and they played a lot of older stuff. I also went and saw them last year at Alexandra palace in London. Set was average, lots of tracks picked just because of a more commercialised crowd, it was more of a playlist than a 'set' as such. Crowd was rubbish, far too many pretentious dickheads unable to just relax and enjoy it. shame. In the space of a year 3 of my favourite DJ's went completely downhill as they just changed their attitude to suit a growing audience. |

OT I hope we don't have to see any more of this kind of thing at shows, it really does nothing to help the already rather negative image a lot of society has for this genre. |

If you knew the mentality of some of my people its very typical (no offense) The kind like "that fella just looked at me, Im going to kick the head off of him for looking at me" literally :/ |

| Romelia Stankard 10.07.2012 | Relax, I don't believe anyone seriously wishes they were dead. related: |
