I went! Besides having the worst crowd control of perhaps anything I have ever been to. This was an absolute blast, that is not totally the promoters fault though kids can be annoying.

In that pic of setting up it looks like they covered all the bleachers with planks so it'd all be flat but all on a slope...am I seeing that right?

I'm pretty sure those are concrete bleachers at the endzone.

Who played?

Terrible excuses for electronic musicians.

Anyone else when Raves played good music? Back in the days of R.A.W, E-Sassin, and Curious?

Probably not, most of you were in the happy hardcore room...

Someone's sad they didn't go =(.

To call those artists "terrible" is a joke.

Sorry man, I never jumped on the house/trance/NRG train, I'm a pure Drum & Bass/Gabber head and it's sad for me to see EDC go from a varied music space to a day long repetitious cluster**** of the same style.

DJ Hype and the Glitch Mob are the only decent musicians on that lineup.

Paul Van Dyk is a joke, so is Moby and Benny.

Well don't forget this is more of a "massive" than "rave". Raves can't really afford to book big acts like PvD and Tiesto, raves are more underground acts/locals.

Main people I'd be interested in seeing at that event are Menno, Fred Everything, Colette, BT and Donald Glaude. Pretty nice lineup, wish we had a music festival like that out in NYC.
