While I do think this event is getting to be too kid friendly (especially the constant humoring of those who feel the need to get onstage every five minutes), I think the event ran FAR smoother than last years. I was highly critical about 2011 and I think that this year Baby Doe and Otto addressed a lot of those concerns. Loved the quick check in process (though I think you should give out the event pamphlets with the wristbands- a lot of people seemed to miss them at the entrance by going around the side of Bali Hai) and the security keepin' some obvious crashers out. My bitch this year is that there seemed to be less music, I swear there were more bands last year and previous. I can see Cabernet Dance and The Devil-Ettes as poolside and pre-show entertainment, but as main attractions, no.
Despite my complaints, I do appreciate all the hard work put into this event by everybody. I'm a lifer (only missed #2) and I'm gonna come no matter what. But I may bitch once in a while. Or more.
