From what I saw in FTL, you didn't even have to get in line that early to get a good spot...we had horrible problems gettin inside due to various reasons and we still got a spot in front of the middle stage around 7:00.
Sidenote: pretty sure PARTYNAUSEOUS was one of the best parts of the entire night. So unexpected and rave friendly, new, and just perfect

...even though it was only two minutes.
