EDC Las Vegas 2012

[shiezza]

I'd trade all these bs daft punk rumors for one piece of halfway legit evidence that the chem bro's will be there...

[heyeric]

IF daft punk comes, I'd also expect to see deadmau5 (joel) there as well. Even if he doesn't perform at EDC, instead maybe at vegas club he's resident to, you'll know he wouldn't miss a daft punk show. Along side many many other artists that wouldn't want to miss an unique Vegas DP experience.

You put Joel just in case no one knows who your referring to when you say deadmau5, right?

[youknowjack8]

I put joel because he would come as an audience member and not as a performer.

Also Modstep, Mat Zo have just confirmed as well. Fb and interview, respectively.

[Nick o]

"joel" is going to be in europe for all of edc :/

[nathanfairchild]

why do we give a fuck if deadmau5 would be watching daft punk?

[grannock]

kek

Someone plays/ed wow.

[fetuspiniata]

Venetian Snares and the Biebs!?! ZOMG

Lynch pleads guilty to avoid jail time...

Pat Lynch Pleads Guilty in Coliseum Case
Former GM admits to one count; avoids jail time

Former Los Angeles Coliseum General Manager Pat Lynch has avoided a jail sentence for his involvement in an alleged kickback scheme by pleading guilty March 29 to one count of felony conflict of interest.

Lynch, 55, had been charged with conspiracy and embezzlement for allegedly taking kickbacks from a janitorial contractor. According to an indictment unsealed Monday, Lynch was accused of ordering a rate increase for the coliseum’s custodial contractor, Tony Estrada, and then receiving kickbacks over four years, allegedly deposited to a bank account in Miami.

Lynch is one of six defendants in the corruption probe that alleges rave promoters paid former Assistant General Manager Todd DeStefano $1.89 million in kickbacks to host events like Monster Massive and Electric Daisy Carnival at the Coliseum. Also indicted are promoters Pasquale Rotella from Insomniac Productions and Reza Gerami of Go Ventures, along with Estrada and former Coliseum Technology Manager Leopold Caudillo Jr.

The plea bargain Lynch reached with prosecutors allows the former GM to avoid jail time but requires him to pay $385,000 in restitution along with 1,500 hours of community service.

"Mr. Lynch's guilty plea means different things to different people. For him, it means that he will not serve any jail time, and his own legal ordeal is over, but he must immediately return all of the money he now admits he received improperly,” said attorney Steve Adelman, an attorney focusing on live entertainment and an instructor for the International Association of Venue Managers’ Academy for Venue Safety & Security.

“For the remaining defendants, the Lynch plea agreement means that they can call him as a witness to support their claims that he authorized their actions on behalf of the Coliseum,” Adelman added, “but as an admitted felon regarding related business dealings, his credibility is damaged."

Lynch will return for formal sentencing on June 26 and was released on his own recognizance. Rotella, DeStefano and Gerami are all out on bail. Caudillo and Estrada have not been arrested or arraigned because they have been out of the country.

Well, Daft Punk is currently working on a new album and they are aiming to release it in June. One could hope that it's alongside EDC, but that is doubtful.

[Nick o]

[boarderwoozel3]

Doesn't matter either way. Glad you're stoked for him.

Who else is playing this thing? Are they still being cunts about releasing the lineup as everyone is in transit to the show?

(Lol that the promoter is catching charges for being a dirtbag. Not too surprising.)

"Justin Bieber"

[boarderwoozel3]

Ya'll would be well-served to give this a whirl and pay homage to the creators. Without Detroit, Chicago, and this lineup there would be no EDC.

Damn, Gary Beck is playing this as well? Droid Behavior snagging techno acts that never come to the states.

[heyeric]

Gary Beck....sayyyyy whaaaaat? Pasquel is delivering to the techno fans.

[tmac]

So from pasquale's tweets today we have learned:

1 day there'll be a trance stage
There'll probably be a hardstyle stage
Big Bassrush party thurs before EDC

[kronz420]

Bassrush party in LA or LV?

[seitron]

Bassrush party in LA or LV?

18+ too, fingers crossed for andy c, would like to see high contrast again too

High Contrast will be on the Hospitality stage at a festival in Europe on Saturday of EDC, so don't count on it. Isn't the idea here to get as many new acts as possible, not as many repeats as possible?

true but i know he'd play a completely different set from the one i saw in SF, either way looks like he wont be there

[Distorted_Jungle]

His set at EDC last year was far from the best High Contrast set I've heard.

[avhua]

I'd trade all these bs daft punk rumors for one piece of halfway legit evidence that the chem bro's will be there...

I fully agree! Chemical Brothers alone would solidify my decision to make the trek out there.

[Tech-yes]

A little birdie told me Magda will be there too
