This is a good point, and I know it to be true, as well. It's just that I always feel like a bit of an ass with the persistence and all that because I'm a particularly tall guy.

Undoubtedly true, and I'm certainly keeping in mind that there are plenty of very hardcore fans on here who are just as fanatical as myself. I mean, that's bloody well why we're here, innit?

So, I think I will meet up with you guys at 6. Still, I gotta tell you, it does make me a little nervous.. (ya know, cuz I'm tall, and I don't like feeling like an ass.)

The drive I'm *easily* most familiar with on this Earth is the one on the 101/405/5 between S.D. and L.A. I say, with it being a Saturday (and not, for example, a Friday), you should very well be alright leaving (no later than) 4p.

Of course, you probably already knew that..

I was emailed today an update from facebook that the name of the event has change to "AEG LIVE presents Underworld feat. Blaqk Audio" ( link )

I also talked to Judy @ 4th and b about the VIP situation today over the phone. She mentioned that only two boxes were offered during the ticket on-sale and that the remaining boxes are for the VIP w/ "bottle service". So those of us that have box seats up stairs will not have the bottle service. Just thought to clear that up

She also mentioned that the set-times have not been finalized. I sure what Rabbitwork posted in the last page will be true cause I'm also part of the coachella boards and what Dani says typical stands true.

Not sure if I can make the dirty meet up but I'm in box 1 during the show. I'm a big tall guy with a pony tail with a shorter Asian gf. I just got done checking the Gorillaz last night (Brilliant show!) and it's been an AMAZING month of live gigs happening in LA this month (went to nine already). But this Saturday night has always been the one I've been waiting for since the the ticket on-sale. Hope everyone has the time of their life this weekend, I'll be at be at the LA gig the next day as well !!

Hah! I'll probably be right there with you, after all..

Good points, again, though you never can tell what other music a UW fan is into. We seem to be the most eclectic lot of nearly all music fans.

Didn't you post before that Dani from the Coachella boards said she got 8p from the promoter? Of course, yeah, this could always be wrong... so I think I'll take it upon myself to call up the venue tomorrow eve and try to find out.. or even this eve..

... I'll try to be at the bar, but may wind up at a table if it's too packed.

Something to note: USC/Oregon game starts at 5pm, and every bar with a TV will be packed for it. Just occurred to me. Still, I think we could get a table.

i'll be loitering about in the downtown area saturday. i'll be wearing a black cap, gray jacket with an ornate skull image in the back, glasses and ponytail

I'm pretty mental with anticipation right now. It strangely feels like nothing between now and tomorrow night even really matters.

Seriously considering going to Hard, too. Does anyone know if we might hear a couple of different tunes on Sunday, whatever they may be?

Odds are very low for diff. tunes between SD & SF. SF is a festival set with at least 1, maybe up to 3 songs dropped from the club sets. You won't hear Dirty Epic at either, i'd guess, and you most likely won't hear Pearls Girl at either. I'd have to check to see the running time of a show that has DE, PG and Moaner but i'd guess it's closer to 1:45 than 1:15 set time allotted for the SF show.
