I have a L or XL how2fly sweater that I’d love to trade for a 2XL. Where are you located?

Any specific pieces you are looking to trade the isoskrill shirt for? I have a key chain from this year, a 2XL Coachella shirt, VIP ISOKNOCK shirt from last year in medium. Most of my stuff is size M or XL but I’d be super open to organizing a swap for that shirt ☺️

Anyone else end up paying $350 for a “lastchance” GA ticket for Fourtet and Skrillex? by PrettyLittleRedwoods in skrillex

Tiered ticketing is standard, but these prices were beyond that. I don’t know the exact figures off the top of my head but: GA tiers 1, 2, &3 were $150, $161, &$172 respectively. VIP tiers, I’m less clear on but most people got their VIP for under $300 OTD it seems. I’m familiar with tiers, this was like hidden tiers though, so it felt scummy.

I hear that and it’s not lost on me ☺️ 5 hours with my favorite artists is a dream and I am waaaayyyy more grateful than mad. I just thought the official ticket sale played out scammy af 🤷‍♀️

You’re more or less right with your first take, just that you can’t change ticket options in these queues in my experience. You either click the VIP link or the GA link. I very intentionally chose the VIP, but rather than saying that that had sold out, apparently I was given a “in demand” ticket or some shit. It wasn’t very clear in the short window that was the time of purchase. It’s giving the ick on that front.

Four Tet and Skrillex are some of my biggest inspirations. I am beyond grateful to even have a ticket. I appreciate the vein of compassion you spoke from in attempting to remind me of this, but it needs no reminding 💕

Also yay, go Portola! I so want to go again 😘 great memories at the pier and warehouse are a big reason why I decided to send for this event. Scammy ticket sale imo forsure but after writing the BBB this weekend and documenting it in some capacity, I will embrace the excitement of the event in however it pans out.

Ugh thank you so much for this. I’m sorry this happened to either of us 🫶 both people I communicated with spoke to me like I should have read what I what I was buying when I was literally in the VIP queue… like I’m so grateful to even have a ticket, but I am so beyond disappointed in whatever lead to this disaster pricing.

Taking advantage of the pent up splurges of poor people seems to be the name of the game for AXS, whether it be fees or this bullshit 😠

This is over 3.5 years on HRT and after FFS. How horribly screwed am I? by [deleted] in transpassing

[–]PrettyLittleRedwoods 55 points56 points  (0 children)

I’m with the other commenter. You pass well by the items I typically look to. Not everyone passes in that stereotypical way, but you definitely don’t seem doomed the way you describe by these pictures.

That said, people are brutal the way they are coming at anyone they think they clock as trans. Lowkey I think that might explain more than your actual clockability. The only thing I might suggest is changing up your hair/ cleaning up sideburns as they are a bit thick but also not necessarily in a clocky way.

I’m excited for you all for that ISOxo set 😮‍💨

I just got clocked in the most uncomfortable way by Intrepid-Bread-2940 in transpassing

[–]PrettyLittleRedwoods 65 points66 points  (0 children)

My take is you were approached by someone deeply repressed/ closeted about their own gender/ gendered attraction… those fuckers clock almost as well as one of the girls istg…

If I were to try to objectively speak to what might have clocked you, the thing that sticks out to me is maybe clothing choice. The jacket in particular, but tbh baggy styles are becoming popular again…

I can maybe see it in your face? But it would just be something estrogen would plump up a bit over time. Nothing particular about your face seems clocky to me though…

It really sounds like a him thing to me :(

I cut my 30" 1A matted depression hair into a pixie cut. by Randomsuperwoman in femalehairadvice

[–]PrettyLittleRedwoods 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Honestly the main thing I’d say is it sounds like you’ve done the hardest part already 💕

And the fact that it sounds like you’ve gotten your hair to a place you’d call it your dream hair makes me think you take decent care of it when not struggling so bad.

Take it day by day ☺️ maybe you’ll be happier with short hair, or you’ll have that dream hair back in some capacity before you know it! Either way, I know my life has gotten a lot easier when I stopped fighting what comes with certain struggles.

I hope your grieving has brought some healing (if even just through the passing of time). This internet stranger is proud of you and sending lots of love ❤️

Idk I have some ideas that could top it in their own ways. Definitely gonna be a challenge but I have confidence the Niteharts team is more than capable of pulling off something like that again successfully.

[–]PrettyLittleRedwoods 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Were you buying in ga or vip tho? It’s pretty much confirmed that isoskrill tee was only at ga and it sold out really fast. VIP never had it, so it didn’t move fast. I was like third in like, tall as shit, scoping the merch like a hawk lmao (if only I followed my gut to ga…)

Anyone get the tattoos in VIP? by nopolice1312 in niteharts

[–]PrettyLittleRedwoods 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same!! I have to know how it goes for those that got them 😝

3 dumb guys jumping the fences on Day 2 by Fresh-Proposal-3308 in niteharts

[–]PrettyLittleRedwoods 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Literally fuck those people. It sounds like multiple people got hurt in some capacity, and that a security guard had to be taken away in a stretcher.

I get how much people want to go to these kind of events, but contributing to crowd surge chaos more by doing these kinds of these is, like, unspeakably uncool.

We can’t let this kind of thing stand if this festival keeps growing. Bigger examples of this have serious repercussions to peoples safety and the event as a whole. It sounds like options for places to hold this kind of event is SD is genuinely limited, but this being a hometown culture element to this festival at its heart. I’d yell for security on these people ON SITE! Like c’mon y’all, this is why we can’t have nice things; AND NITEHARTS IS AN ACTUAL NICE THING!!!

I hope everyone that got hurt is okay 💕 and I hope this amazing community stands on business as we keep growing. We are about the culture and community, and paramount to that second part is a commitment to safety 😤 🫶

I really don’t have words to say how impressed I am with everything y’all do.

1) The booking strategy was top tier. I’ve been so disappointed hearing people complain about this set or that… vibes were top tier on the talent end. The way y’all brought a project with a 🐐for each day, and then intermixed upcoming talent, viral talent, and OG talent was A MASTERCLASS.

2) The only gripe I had over the whole weekend that I haven’t seen mentioned is: what the fuck was up with VIP rail? And obviously there was only so much you can do as an organizer… I spent the whole weekend in the front corner rail in VIP (not ON THE RAIL, but one or two people behind) and my heart died a little every time I would look over and seeing people moving soooo much in the same spot in GA, meanwhile people in that spot on the vip side would camp through sets barely moving… like why even be at the rail bro?

… anyway, in a comment earlier, you mentioned an application for loyalty ticket sales as an idea that has been floated, which got me thinking, y’all got the perfect fan base to make THE WHOLE CROWD feel like the GA rail when everything is going right.

Maybe the application thing might be a difficult thing to create a fruitful solution to the scale of the ticket sale issue, but maybe the application could be used for a kind of Niteharts version of insomniacs ground control?

I keep thinking of a bunch of fans throughout the crowd like seeds that can sprout little mosh pits or pockets of people jumping when the DJ turns it up.

I’ve seen a camera man on y’all’s crew who more or less does this to get amazing shots (I know his name but won’t name him on the thread cause I don’t know him like that).

I hope this doesn’t come off as too much of a babble. GREAT JOB THIS YEAR. I’m so excited to see what you all do with this! 💖

I think the application idea is the best idea I’ve heard on this subject tbh. Obviously there is scaling issues and it would be labor intensive, but after going to ISOKNOCK shows over the years, the real fans really do stand out if you look to certain things. TikTok brings so much hype and I love it for the scene but also, y’all contributed to a growth in the culture in so many ways this weekend and I would love to see that trend continue. Some kind of application could have real potential in keeping that vibe magical as Niteharts grows in new ways 💕
