Some sort of...

hey I am coming from mother russia to your nice rave in London and I don't want to get turned away if I arrive slightly late due to icy runways or bears caught in the turbines. May I please paypal you £15 for guestlist?

Regards,

Vladimir

Something like this should be set up though to help protect people coming from long long distances to make sure they get in etc.

Would be a par to canoe the Atlantic and get turned away cos the clubs full.

Other than that, I re-iterate what Dubloke said.

Fair enough people come from far but to be fair but if you dont get in then tough shit really.

I say that cause you shouldnt plan a trip just for one rave. This coming from me going to Berlin for Substance and not getting in. But i half expected it and had a sick night elsewhere.

DMZ doesnt even get advertised apart from 1 post on the forum and another on fb. So why change it now by having tickets.

The vibe of the night doesn't change because you bought your ticket online, at the door, or by sucking off the bouncer at the club. Come off it. DMZ is the biggest Dubstep night on the planet now and as far as I can tell, always has been since day zero. There's nothing underground about DMZ. People in the states have been making the pilgrimage since like 2005 or something like that yea?

Too many people feel like everything is about how exclusive something is.

My concern is not knowing the transit system and screwing myself out of making it inside. So go several hours early yea, now assume I don't get lost on the tube and arrive 5 hours early. What is in the neighborhood of the venue to do for 5 hours until the doors open?

Not everyone has access to 5-10 headliners on any given Tuesday night, kids. Most parts of the world we're lucky to get ONE of the people playing at DMZ and a few shit locals. People here are acting like presales would somehow change anything. It's not like the lineup is as cryptic as the flyer makes it out to be. It's heavily spammed on many a forum, not by the guys who throw the party but by people that will be there. Underground? Negative.

All of the subdub/dmz/exodus events in Leeds are ticketed, and that still take's looooong.
For the bigger events, the ticket queue is much longer than the non-ticket queue and still takes time in my experience.
So yeh, don't think it would make a huge amount of difference.

its not the queue that's the problem, it's the overcrowding

the cover goes up over the night, though a lot more drastically than over here. maybe 3 before 12, then after it's 5, you know that sort of thing. obviously encouraging people to get there early, which seems to have backfired and screwed the people over.

if dmz is so grassroots how are you gonna fck with people like that? obviously it's not intentional, but the gears are set to be put in motion you know? why not just a flat rate all night? there's a chance it's not even up to the organizers/djs and is in the hands of the venue, who knows?

there has been some serious lolworthy comments in here.

WTF do you want to que 2 hours for?

Did anyone who wanted to get in, not actually get in this time?

^^^^this... queue-time was jokes last week, it sets the vibe or the rest of the night. just as many people are gonna kick off about it getting ticketed. keep it the way it is.
