When you've lost your mind in Amnesia, or been over the moon in Space, you know the definition of what is, and isn't, Ibiza. This was not. Being promptly reminded to 'put my hands in the air, Ibiza' on the hour every hour by a gruff Manc accent, and what was essentially an oversized party-popper, paraded as a 'laser canon', reminded me just how far away I was from the pash of Pacha. 

Yours sincerely,

Jack Whetton

This Was Ibiza?

Hassle with tickets but dettman was excellent

Poor oranisation

This event could/should have been brilliant, but wasn't - terrible venue, poor sound (technical problems & too quiet) and dreadful organisation. We missed about 1/3rd of the night queuing inexplicably to get in & so missed most of Levon Vincent (who friends who came down from Scotland specifically to see). Then I got separated from all my friends after going to the loo when the door to one room was suddenly without any prior notice.  Marcel Dettman was average, but Pinch was an excellent late replacement for Falty DL - sadly he played to about 20 people as folks had got fed up & left.  Embarrassing.  I'd never got to another night like this at the Academy.  

a total shambles

Organisation on the doors was too much faff, having the tickets allocated and then given in every time you left a room was a hassle, especially if you accidentally lost your ticket - this was a nightmare after paying for the event and then having to argue your way back in. Next time an event like this needs either a stamp system of wristbands allocated to avoid so many ques etc. 
Otherwise a great night. 

great music, better organisation

Awful door organisation (the que took an hour with a lot of pushing and shoving), bad space allocation (again, I had to que for over 30 mins to get back into a room I left only to use the gents), and on top of this, Marcel Dettman was very average. Disappointing night, and I really don't think this venue should be allowed to stage events of this type or scale.

Disappointing Dettman
