Really it depends on the crowd. When we went to BTSM or Shaq it was overcrowded but the crowd had some really good vibes, and everyone was there for that, so we were happy and had a lot of fun. When we went to Meduza it was overcrowded but everyone was acting like they were out at a nightclub instead of a show, so it kind of sucked.

We were at that show too! We worried whether they would hold up, but it was still a pretty fun show. Kind of hilarious to see him looking bored and chainsmoking up on stage though!

We've been going far too often though. Going to the Excision show on Saturday.

We realized how good we had it when in just one week, they had Loud Luxury, Disco Lines, Benny Benassi, Nicky Romero, and Afrojack. We like dubstep and hardstyle (rip) more, but even that's not a bad lineup anywhere.

I tried to check out the scene in Atlanta and Philly when I visited, and it feels like a lot of other cities just don't have the names coming through that we do. They have smaller/more underground djs, but if you like the big name festival acts, Echostage is actually really good. So many acts that Steve Aoki is playing on a Wednesday!
