I probably differ from many of you in thinking that it's amazing the
festival happens at all. I live in one of the most "liberal" (ok, its
debatable) cities in the US: San Francisco. We could never get away
with a 3 day festival going until midnight at that volume level. Most
city officials are terrified after the tragedy at Love Parade and the
recent media re-focus on rave deaths in LA. the SFPD would never let
all the bars serve all night or till 5am for one festival weekend like
the DPD did this year. And the music is still way better than Lovefest
or Love Parade. So white drug fest or not I still appreciate the
ridiculous organizational and public relations work it takes to pull
off an electronic music festival in the US.
Quoting jwan allen <[email protected]>:
I've attended every festival and will continue to go each and every
year. Look for me in one of those stupid visa card commercials 20
years from now. that being said the change to rave till dawn '11 is
disconcerting, but it is what it is.
I did more stuff in and around the city while only hitting the stuff I
wanted to hear, so it was an excellent balance.
I'm not sure if just me being jaded, but I don't even notice the meat
heads and the countless young girls dancing in their underwear they
are just background noise to me at this point.
