EDC Las Vegas 2013

DAMN SINGLE DAYS GONE ALREADY

[NachoCat]

Whats an EDC ?

[Mike Litoris]

It's funny seeing so many Facebook "friends," "devastated" that they couldn't get presales. These are the same kids who didn't even know about EDC until it moved to Vegas, and in high school, made fun of people for liking "techno."

Oh I'm sorry Dad, I didn't realize you were over my shoulder as I had two browsers constantly refreshing at that time. Maybe I did it wrong? Perhaps I should be using Netscape?

It's a headache when you have 3+ "processing" windows that have been going on for 30+ minutes. Tier 1 and Tier 2. With constant minor increases, most people will say, "meh whatever", but if each year you've attended and you've seen very little improvement and larger capacity, you wonder - Where the fuck is that extra money going? When you've attended several great events, the ones you attend in the future should deliver, not have you scratch your head and say: Is this worth it?

For how they handled the reaction to the "wind" problem - If you bought a Saturday ticket, go ahead and go to Sunday - If you had a 3 day pass... well sorry bro. - That's not really a proper way of handling a problem. You give one customer a full refund and able to make up for the lost day, while the person who paid more for a 3 day pass has basically lost money for wanting to come to your full event, rather than just ONE day.

Perhaps this year for the trance stage they won't have huge hanging speakers of death that cause a stage to get cancelled and cause a domino effect, shutting down the whole event. Yes, yes, "it wasn't shut down" there were just 1000s of workers who didn't know what the fuck was going on and that caused miscommunication forcing people to exit when they were allowed to stay at the Cosmic Meadow and the bleachers.

lol, I refreshed once at 11:59, got in and got a ticket. Its not like its Insomniac's fault that a shit ton of people want to buy tickets, would you rather them just have every ticket in presale be $250 as opposed to some for $200?

As for the weather issue on Saturday, they weren't legally obligated to do anything- one half of a night of a 3 night event was cancelled. Its not just hanging speakers that are an issue when it comes to wind and safety..

Well I purchased a Tier 1 ticket for 234 or whatever it was with all the bs shipping fees and what not. Unsure if I will go all three days this year..... Hopefully they will have the techno stage friday and saturday this year.

[tmac]

Or all 3 days

[theresalwaysone]

I'll save my money for the Playa or an international destination

I fucking hope so. I can't believe you're even considering EDC. Unless, of course, it's for The Pussy.

[Mugwog]

It's always for the poosay

Why can't "people" go to a huge corporate EDM event "for" the same "reasons" as me?

[vertin]

How many people this year at edc will be going for their first time? I could guess 50%+ percent of the people. So many people that used to talk shit now go. Scene is so wack. You cant even dance without someone judging you. This is a music festival you fucking scrubs, get the fuck out. and for anyone that believes in the whole wind thing is a dumbass. Its the fucking desert there is wind every fucking night. You spend hundreds on dollars and cant even secure a stage correctly? Besides its not like rotella cares. He saves tons of money and gets to blame it on some other country festival or whatever it was. Lame fest.

[nick5745]

Why give a fuck what other people think? why give a fuck why other people are there? why give a fuck about anything but the music and your own enjoyment of it? I can understand complaining about a crowd if they're inhibiting you to have a good time but this should rarely be the case unless they are violent, spilling drinks on you, talking over the music (which isn't a problem at EDC since all stages are loud) etc. Just because there are kandi kids there or people who want to hear the same song over and over doesn't mean you can't have a good time, especially at certain stages. There are a ton of really nice people who go to the events, even if their taste in music is much...simpler than say yours

[guedita]

WELL SAID, NICK. HAVE FUNNNNNNNNN

[ocbruin84]

[bemerritt]

Did you expect to find a herd of hippies at edc?

[vertin]

No but they used to be there back in the day

[ManImCool]

Let's talk more about the things you do at EDC that actually warrant people filming you and laughing. Shuffling in birkenstocks with classic flower child attire? I'm genuinely curious.

[Mugwog]

Rolling around on the asphalt and telling everyone it's as smooth as marble as you swim through the air

[SepaGroove]

Sounds like my second shroomy experience.

[suprefan]

i want a single day ticket wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhhhhh

Remember the idiots who thought 3 day tickets would never work at coachella? Welcome to that club

[vertin]

Haha I'm actually sober..this festival is no longer about the music and dancing..most people go just so they can post an update on their face books that they are there

[ocbruin84]

sounds like coachella amirite

[grannock]

All you fucking clowns should try demf and save a thousand dollars for a much better time.

[SepaGroove]

DEMF would be a lot more expensive for me considering I live in Southern Cal.

[guedita]

You probably haven't done the math on how expensive DEMF actually is.

[Mugwog]

Under $120 for the whole festival right? Flight there would be most expensive thing I would imagine. Unless you spend more than $600 on favors

[guedita]

Around $120 is the VIP price ticket. General admission is considerably cheaper. Rooms are cheap. Food is cheap. After party tickets are cheap. Flights can be expensive.

[SoulDischarge]

GA presale for DEMF last year was $50. I bet it goes up this year.
