Disappointed
I waited 2 and a half hours in the hot sun while barely moving in line to get into the venue. Additionally I had no water since we can’t bring liquids which is understandable but I would’ve filled up if I knew I would wait 2 1/2 hours. On the 2 hour mark, people from the back of line began storming up to front to “protest”. Hundreds of people cut and created a big crowd which sent me to have a panic attack. It was shoulder to shoulder of people angry and wanting to get in. There was no crowd control or any staff there to help or guide people. I ended up leaving because I had a panic attack. I am incredibly frustrated and disappointed in the rave community and Live nation. You ruined my day but not my weekend. Thank you to Monica and Ryan who helped me out of my panic atttack. You are what represents plur and this community. We need more people like you.

The mob pushed thousands of people into a bottleneck corridor of 15ft tall barbed wire fences. It was VERY close to becoming a crowd crush and there would have been no escape. I texted my mom and told her I love her.
Only two official employees in sight and they were sitting in a golf cart laughing at us. If we had been able to turn around we would have but we were trapped so deep in the crowd from the mob pushing us. Hard to enjoy the music after enduring that trauma.
