I am going to Global Gathering this year cos I also like music other than Hardcore sometimes but I am well excited now cos I have just read that Hixxy and Storm are going to be there - Yeh!
This has made what looked a good event, excellant but I am wondering what other people think - do you think it is the start of Hardcore going more mainstream/commercial? Is it a good or a bad thing?
Personally I don't care! I just know that I and my other half, will be crammed into, what I expect will be, a very busy, sweaty tent dancing our tits off!!

The Mainstream/Commercial , Good/Bad argument has been done to death, i don't think anyone really knows what it would be like.
I just think whatever doesnt kill the scene will really make it stronger!

my brother went last year and said it was good but he likes trance, personally trance over and over gets a bit boring.
i was hoping to go this year but none of my mates would, bastards
BOO!

I've been to Global Gathering a couple of times as i do still like listening to the odd bit of D n B, Trance & Hard house and the atmosphere is always spot on.
HOWEVER.
I won't be going this year because there just isn't that much about it that interests me. And there's no way i'm going to go for 1 hour of Hardcore.
They should have stuck their necks out and gone for a Hardcore tent (as had been suggested by a lot of people) - THAT would have made it worth attending.

Arguably one of the best

I go to GKGG every year. If the weather is good it's a top day (and night) out. Everytime I go I seem to get wasted, god knows why! Must be all that trance pants... 
I do go to the DnB arenas (still is hardcore in my old books) and all are cool - just don't expect to get near the front...
Obviously our whole troop have decided to visit the Hixxy set. Should be a good move by HTID and Hardcore in general. Hixxy cannot fail to impress the Trace and Hard-House ravers if he pulls out a UK Hardcore cracker. The fact I use Hixxy Peel session to get people into hardcore says it all.
