    Debating with myself whether to go to this and misses is same

    Were only back from Poland last on Sunday after being there for a wedding and thought of drink is putting me off

    After all that went on at SHM, not sure if im pushed on this

    If i do, will prob be driving to it, weather doesn't look great and means can at least have someway of getting home, all be in bit of traffic

    Any recommendations where to park for quick getaway or the official car park the best?

    Going to this,great line up but the weather will be awful it seems

    The Shm thing is turning people off but i know lots of people who went to that gig and didnt even know there was trouble.

    Fingers crossed for good weather

    This will probably be the safest gig of the year to go to after all that happened last time out.

    There was a representative from the Gardai and MCD talking about this on the radio and the Gardai confirmed that they would be searching people getting off coaches/buses before they even get to the gig and they'd also have sniffer dogs with them to catch people trying to bring drugs in with them.

    Will be interesting to see if they follow through with all that.

    Hopefully they do it proper, anyone who looks drunk or drugged up shouldn't be let in, and anyone they find inside, should be fcuked out for starters anyway.

    I'm probably being very ignorant here but what exactly does David Guetta do at a concert. My understanding is he produces these songs and it's other people singing on them. So is it basically him on a stage playing his own CDs?

    Electronic music isn't as easy as that to make, produce, mix, play

    There is alot in it and so many different genres

    I can see how people think like you and it's fair question, I'd go into more detail but hard to type on the phone

    I'm not huge Guetta fan (not my fav genre at all) but he is good at what he does, will be good gig I know for sure

    In fairness this happens at plenty of gigs

    Alcohol is a drug and ive seen people more than overdose at plenty of gigs from Jimmy Carr in the Olympia to Sting and the Police in Croke Park.....and no doubt plenty more on Friday and tonight at NG HFB gig

    The official car park will be pot luck in terms of getting out, could be out in 5 minutes or an hour. There are 2 pubs and a hockey club (€5) that will have very limited parking within a 5 minute walk, you would need to be there very early I'd imagine to get parking there. A couple of estates within 15 minute walk would be suitable if your into that. The estates closer to it are sealed off for local access only.

    Cheers for the reply. I don't doubt the man obviously has a talent for what he does,which is probably why every second song in the charts involves him in some way. But I was thinking that surely his hard work is done in the studio and in a gig I can't figure out what he's doing on the stage. I'm 31 but when it comes to music I'm probably an "old 31" so wouldn't be into a lot of chart music now. Hope everyone has a good time and no hassle.

    31 means you grew up during the beginning and best years of trance (my fav genre of electronic music :D)

    Electronic music is made in studio like all other forms of music where vocals etc. are added to the backing bass line and track. The bass line has different BPM depending on style of music your playing 118-135 drum beats per minute for Guetta

    It is then perfected to give a radio edit (if mainstream) and full version

    On stage the DJ then mixes his full version with any song or songs including changing the tempo etc. He plays numerous songs simultaneously to create what the crowd hears, and this is what makes each DJ unique, their style and tempo etc. along with the BPM they use
