Got asked on the way in if I had any 'mini systems' in the van, i wasn;t lying when I said 'no' because I wouldn't class a 4k system as mini! How they didn't notice it i don't know.
Got asked to turn it down on the Friday night once so we gkept it quite quiet so as not to **** everyone off on the first night. The Saturday we got told once to turn it down a bit because the Santa Pod staff had complained, I asked if any of the campers had complained he said no so I stuck it back up as soon as they were out of site.
The staff were really good this year and compared to other security firms we've come across were perfect. They were friendly and didn't have a Hitler complex. They all looked like old rockers!
Apparently as soon as you stepped out of the rave tent all you could hear was my system! I think thats what they were pissed off about because they're little back stage bit all you must of heard was me!

It was pityfully quiet in the dance area.
A few years ago they had 2 tents, fri night with old skool in one and house in the other, sat night hardcore in one (Sy was awesome) and D&B in the other.
No one would leave foe ages and the DJs played on.
I think a lot of these event organisers have to be careful of nearby residents who complain at everything from engine noise, gennys, music after 12 etc etc

Yeah this is true but if you live close to Santa Pod you must be used to a bit of noise. I don't think there is any residential areas for a good few miles though.
USC is all about the atmosphere and night life. If they start to knock that on the head then they will be shooting themselves in the foot.
Did you a get to see (a rather late) Fabio on the Saturday?

Yeah I kinda got that from them they were quality blokes but did have a kinda 'don't **** with us' aura about them. I'm always polite and helpfull to security even if they are being ******* giving me a ahrd time. But they were just really really cool.
They should do more car shows. so much better than the usual power trip, bullied at school ******* you get.

Right then, finally got my 1/4 vid, shabbily edited and uploaded onto you tube. It was a slog, but got there in the end. And shameless plugging
