Anyone going to see Skrillex on any of these dates? I raved in SoCal all through the 90's and a little after 2000. The wife and i are going to see Skrillex at the La Exchange on the 26th. Its put on by Insomniac. Went to a lot of their parties in the 90's. I'm old school but i love me some Skrillex.

Insomniac in the 90's was rave.

Today, Insomniac is all about business. Skrilex...

I'd rather take Zolpidem Tartrate and party with my bed.

A lot of people throwing parties for a long time have been all about the business. They have to turn a profit in order to make the party worth while to do and to be able to do other parties. Im not expecting to go to a rave that's why i chose to go to a 21+ event that does not have a lot of little children zoned out of their mind in puddles on the floor when im trying to cut a rug. I really like Skrillex's music.

A lot of EDM parties are business; it's common sense that if a club/rave promoter does not gain $, more than likely, they wont throw another party.

21+ Insomniac event does have grown adults zoned out of their minds in puddles on the floor. You are going to see Skrillex right? LOL.

Well i hope there are at least some older people with a little sense. Its on a Thursday night so maybe they wont get to messed up.

Don't hate cuz he likes skrillex thats messed. I mean I detest the tunes but you seem unlike the typical skrillex fan. I hope he is playing you a live set because the guy absolutely blows as a DJ. As a producer he is mediocre which for dubstep is top of the game almost.

Have fun!

Wow! I have to say that this event exceeded all my expectations. The venue was sweet the music was sick. I thought that skrillex did a good job of djaying and mixing. I am old school and love my technics and really didn't respect the cd d jays of the new age until most recently but i love all the new music software that allows skriillex to do what he does best and make some dope music. He had the crowd so hyped and at times my energy drink fueled night i seemed almost like the old days where i was so much more chemically enhanced. I know some of you don't like skrillex but if you do pllease do not hesitate to go to one of his shows especially if its a semi small venue like this. He hyped the crowd so much and absolutely blew us away. I however didn't see puddles of pill screwed ravers all over the floor like i was told i would see. I did see a few hundred Skrill fans going nuts to his set. Zedd was pretty good too. If you search on youtube for " skrillex at exchange" you can see some videos of the party. There was one guy with a professional camera and did some good vids. The sound quality does not do it justice as most vids online don't. We went to the King King the next night and saw A skillz wreck some stuff. His set was sick. I love me some good technic 1200 mixing and scratching. I got my pop and lock on. The black 22's were good and then Diva Danille took us into the morning. I had so much fun on this trip to La. I cant believe my 37 yo butt still can cut a rug like i was young again. I hope to do it again soon.
