History
The first Monster Massive was held in 1997 and all subsequent events have been held at the Los Angeles Sports Arena. Monster Massive of 2008 and 2009 had a reported 65,000 tickets sold. 16,000 attended in 2010. The event was limited to ages 18+ due to the death from water intoxication of Sasha Rodriguez in June 2010 at Electric Daisy Carnival. In 2011 the event was announced as cancelled by the online ticketing outlet, GrooveTickets (Flavor.us), and other artists scheduled to perform; Armin Van Buuren, Nero, and Erick Morillo. In 2012 the event was cancelled again like the year before. This coming just a day before the event. After the 2 years of failed events it appears that Go Ventures might have to call it quits due to the lack of support and distrust from their once die hard fans.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“While the Republic has already acquired a history world-wide, America is still unsettled and unexplored. Like the English in New Holland, we live only on the shores of a continent even yet, and hardly know where the rivers come from which float our navy.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“History does nothing; it does not possess immense riches, it does not fight battles. It is men, real, living, who do all this.... It is not “history” which uses men as a means of achieving—as if it were an individual person—its own ends. History is nothing but the activity of men in pursuit of their ends.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
“Certainly there is not the fight recorded in Concord history, at least, if in the history of America, that will bear a moment’s comparison with this, whether for the numbers engaged in it, or for the patriotism and heroism displayed.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
