| - The ideal backdrop for a LIFE-CHANGING-EXPERIENCE.
Came here for the 2011 Electric Daisy Carnival. The Motor Speedway pretty much curbstomped the living daylights out of the LA Memorial Coliseum in every way imaginable. After all...
- The venue accommodated FAR MORE festival attendees/ravers/wannabe ravers than ever before. I'm still in awe over how the cramming of 80-100,000 guys and gals in one site seldom resulted in shoulder-to-shoulder situations (except during Swedish House Mafia's set, but that was pretty much a given).
- The staff/police officers who conducted security inspections, patrols, and guest services for EDC's attendees were all warm, well-prepared, and very much helpful!
- The Speedway was as clean and as maintained as the Coliseum is run-down and dilapidated. 'Nuff said.
Of course, while the performers, the crowds, and the production all play integral roles in separating an awesome festival from a shitty one, the setting should serve as priority #1. Vast, vast improvement from last year's Electric Daisy, and I extend my utmost kudos to both Insomniac and to the city of Las Vegas for making my weekend into an unforgettable one - into a brief sampling of perfection, bliss and nirvana.
And thanks to a brand-new five-year contract with the city of Las Vegas, I sure will be back! Believe me, I'm just counting down the days.
