Rock-Out At ZoukOut

At 10 pm on Saturday night, party venue Sentosa's Siloso Beach was still pretty empty. However, there was this palpable air of expectation. People really really love trance. By 1am, the entire beach was packed. Drunk or otherwise, many people were still partying hard at 4am. Soulwax and Ferry Corsten thrilled the crowd that fed on one another's raw energy. The party was definitely going to last till sunrise.

Honestly, the pulsating beats gave me a headache. I didn't mind the rock bands. Some were electrifying. One went off-key, off-beat and sucked really bad. My favorite part was watching the resfest films.

I was still drugged out and groggy from meds to keep the fever at bay. The bottle of water was my best friend all night. It was a herculean struggle to stay awake. I really don't know how the party animals do it. By 4am, I was pooped and called it a night.

The crew was kind enough to do us a special favor and loaned us a golf buggy to take us back to the hotel. We probably pissed off lots of revellers by taking the golf buggy through the crowd. We so totally interrupted their revelry and forced people to move away to let the buggy through. Luckily for us, majority in the crowd was accommodating. So yeah, we didn't have to walk and elbow our way across the beach.
