29th AUG- 5th SEP
quick review:
Flew out from Gatwick ridiculously early on Wed 25th Aug; fabric the Saturday before for MANDY and Claude VonStroke; and a particularly heavy notting hill carnival on Monday, meant that we arrived in Ibiza ****ing knackered before it even began! However, after many a drink at Bora Bora, what was planned to be a chilled first night quickly became a rather messy one.. danced in the bora bora club bit until close, then stayed on the beach until about 2:30pm- before stumbling back to our apartment (Bon Sol- Playa D'en Bossa for bed)
Woke up Thursday evening- headache. Food, few bars, then Cream. As when I went last year, prefered the Terrace to the main room... Sebastian Leger was good, but set of the night probs goes to D. Ramirez... actually played a lot of fidget house- herve, switch etc...
Friday- went to Pure Pacha. first time at Pacha. although I consider it more of a 'posers' club and the music was hardly revolutionary, had a good time all the same to Pete Tong, was very mashed though
Saturday- chilled out, recovered.
Sunday- We Love Space- got there about 6pm... awesome time, enjoyed chilling out in the top open air bar until it got dark, then groove armada, sasha and james zabiela. missed kissy sell out unfortunately. can't remember who was doing the final set in the Terreza- but was good. left about 5am.
Monday- Circo loco of course. arrived at about 4pm- wicked time, standard DC10 madness. left at about 9:30- half-way through Luciano's set- not becuase it was bad- but in order to get a couple of hours sleep before Cocoon....
arrived at Amnesia at about 3... first time at Cocoon.. loved the sinister decorations and sketchy dancers- all a total head-****. music was good, especially vath of course and marco carola in the terrace. however it was absolutely rammed to the point of it being uncomfortable- no dancing space. my only Amnesia experience to this point being Cream/Armada, I thought it might clear out a bit at 6, leaving a final hour of space to move in. wrong. spose because it's minimal techno peeps can go on and on and on.... although seeing the Amnesia terrace literally full when the lights came on at 7:30 was a very impressive sight.
Long wait for taxi... grrr.
actually made it to the beach Tuesday afternoon! not early/long enough to develop any sort of tan though hah.
Tuesday night- went to San An to Bar M, got really drunk, ended up in some random little club. Flew home to Gatwick early Wednesday morning.
home now- broke and fragile- definitely worth it though! wicked time. prefered staying in Playa D'en Bossa this year, as opposed to San An the last.
