Went to the show last night and it was utterly amazing. The Whip only had a 3 song set but it was awesome none the less. Parking nearby at the BU Parking Lot worked out well, moved the car to a free street spot at 10:45 PM since the BU lot closes at 11. Went back inside to KEEP enjoying Deadmau5. The crowd was extremely friendly.
At the start of Deadmau5, I went across the floor and someone gave me a red/blue glow stick and a green glowstick. After losing those 2 amidts the dancing chaos, the guy with the cape and wizard hat gave me finger lights to rave with. I was on the left side, lower down balcony with the white shirt and phoenix tattoo on my right arm (doing backflips, etc).
I had an amazing night and my friend turned 19 when the clock hit 12, no better way to enjoy a birthday than last night's concert!
