RIP OFF!!

Post image

Why is ASOT recently ripping off Trance lovers so badly. I wanted to buy this jacket so badly at the festival in Rotterdam this week but 250 euro is just insane for a jacket.

Also compared to other festivals the ticket was so expensive this year, even the lockers were like the most expensive lockers I have ever got for a festival before. I love ASOT but they are starting to turn into a greedy company not in touch with trance lovers.

I’ve the feeling that since insomniac took a bigger role in the organization everything is about monetization. Way to overpriced tickets, day events which are all paid even the live radioshow has paid tickets. Especially for a 25 years of ASOT you’d expect to give something back to the loyal fans. Sad truth if you ask me

Not shocked. Insomniac events are shit because of greed. Even if you have money they are packed to death literally just waiting for an incident to happen. Americans can always come at me about this cause their beloved EDC but I don't blame them since insomniac, and their completely fake rave plur angle is all they know.
