Bit of a rant
- Thread starter Germaine
- Start date
So, the first day.
Actually wasn't bad. We had a great flight time. Departed from Dublin at ~11am I think and arrived in Ibiza at ~3pm, which I thought was great. Still nice a sunny out, so we checked in, grabbed a bite to eat and hit a few bars along sunset strip before heading to Mambos for the sunset.
The sunset @ Mambos is probably one of the main reasons we decided to stay in San Antonio again this year. Little would I know that this would be the only sunset seen in the 11 days.
Enjoyed Mambos thoroughly. I like Solomun and thought he was playing some good stuff. Had a bit of a headache which was growing but I pack stuff in preparation for that type of thing!
So, 1st night, normally ends up messy anyway, and most of my mates did not bring enough money away, so I didn't mind just hitting the strip for the 1st night, but a girl my mate is seeing was over for the Sunday and Monday and they were going to Amnesia so we agreed to go there.
So, few drinks back in apartment, then onto a bar, and onto Amnesia eventually. Friend lost his iPhone in taxi on the way there (luckily a good guy found it later and rang another one of my mates. Still good people in San An!). Got inside. It was packed. Amnesia always seems to be very busy (in my experience). The music, if you can call it that. Not a fan of EDM. Just sounds like noise. 2 of my mates left really early, and me and another friend also decided to leave early. I could have thought of better ways to spend a Sunday (Pacha or Space).

Second day was my own fault. Suffering all day. Constantly topping up with Neurofen +. Ended up going to bed ~10ish, after having a few drinks at Mambos (although missed the sunset), but woke up at 12am to grab a shower and had a berocca & disprin. Had bands for Toolroom Knights. Entry before 2am = 20e & 1 free drink. I got up at 12am and was still ready before some others. As a result, against my advice we left too late, and after a very scary illegal taxi drive (I told him to make it for 2am, big mistake, thought I was going to die), we arrived at roughly 2:10-2:15, paid 40e in, no free drink, and only enough money left for 2 drinks and a taxi drive home.
I enjoyed the music so I wasn't too bad. Saw My Digital Enemy, Mark Knight & Tocadisco. Some good sounds. Would have preferred if i got cheaper entry, more drink, or even find someone for a jack & jill (which i couldn't).
On that note, i found it harder to source some "stuff" this year as compared to others.

I hadn't wifi at the time, but in hindsight, i should have entered the "Meet me in Ibiza" sub-forum!
Agreed mate. It only got worse as the holiday went on :/
The 3rd day was actually not bad.
We missed the sunset at Mambos but still got down there and had some pre-drinks. I was feeling a lot better and was looking forward to Carl Cox as it was probably my favourite night last year, and proved to be again.
Got in there ~2ish and within 10mins Fatboy Slim came on in the Terrace and tbh I thought he rocked it. The place was very busy, everyone was having a good time. Eats everything on in the main room, but we stayed for Fatboys slims set before moving into the main room for Carl Cox.
Great party. Stayed there to ~8-9 in the morning and would have went to Bora Bora for the after party only one of my mates was just drinking and had been waiting outside for us for quite a while and taxis would not take just 1 person back to San An. Can always rely on Carl Cox for a good night

The following day....
I woke up at 12-1pm. I always seem to wake up fresh after popping as opposed to just drinking all night. It helps if it's sunny too. Went down to the beach during the day (2 of us only, the rest in bed, as usual). Then later on after we grabbed a bite to eat, 4 of us decided to just go for a walk and maybe pop into a few bars for some drinks. 1 decided to go home, so 3 of us walked down sunset strip, down around to where all the boats are. Stopped in for some sangria (only 2 of us). Walked back up towards sunset strip, decided we'd stop in Mambos for a drink in the sun. Just the one though, as they are expensive 15e for a Mambos Hierbas Mojito. Very nice I must say. Then headed up to Kanya. They had selected cocktails for 5e so we chilled there for about 3 cocktails as the sun started to set. Only 2 of us drinking again, as one watching money.
That was about the extent of the day though. Went back and the other 2 were still lounging around apartment. We got some food and then got some drink for apartment. Heading out ~2ish, didn't move off the West End. Now, I didn't really mind spending 2-3 nights on West End over the course of 11 days, but 3 went into Ground Zero and 2 of us Play 2. Well, my mate went toilet and never returned, so I was on my own most of night, until I finally left and bumped into 2 other mates.
Think we had another drink and then headed back to apartment. 2 of us walked back down to strip then, but as I was walking down, one of the sucky suckys grabbed me from behind. I knew exactly what she was doing and immediately grabbed my pockets but it was too late. 70e gone.
I was shouting at her, walking after her, but she went to the others for protection and I didn't fancy getting stabbed over 70e so I stormed off. Very angry as you can imagine. Sat out on balcony by myself and grabbing a glass bottle and smashing it in frustration.

You may already be able to tell the difference in this thread, compared to my one from last year.
Last year I put more effort in, wrote with a better tone, more structured layout and more reminiscent mood. This year I'm kind of just complaining about all the things that went wrong :/

don´t blame lookylooky - when it was suckysucky !!
The Thursday....
Only 2 of us ended up going out. I had wanted to go to ENTER. Never got to do it last year. But with only 2 of us going out it would have cost us about 35 each in taxi fares alone so we ended up just going to Mass Bass at Privilege. Not my cup of tea at all. Left after maybe a little over an hour. Got a taxi back with some Italian guy who was pretty cool. Went into Play2 for a few more drinks and was back at apartment for maybe 5:30ish.
