You guys are lucky...for this at least.

It is a shame people in SoCal and Norcal are so stuck in their region and have their blinders on.

The scene is more than the region you are in and I am glad to see the mid-west bringing all this talent out.


I'm a huge raver in Cali, But I have family in Minnesota so if i'm ever out there in the future i'll try and make it to anything from a house party/renegade/underground to a festival like this.

As for next year, I hope this is going off again for such a great price, and i hope it is right before Love Parade in Germany.

Going to this for the weekend and then flying across the ocean to Germany for an EDM/culture festival with 1.5 million people would make my life.

Props to everyone who helped put this together and hope you all have a blast!




P.S. after reading through this whole thread, you guys should put your drama and bullshit aside.

Shit happens.

Try and remember what it is all about. Not the money, not how much a crew comes out with, but the people that you are trying to bring in and resurrect the scene with.

It's about the people and the music.


That being said, even HALF of those DJs would be worth 100 dollars IMO.
and yet right now it is still only 50.

I don't see why anyone in the midwest wouldn't get work off for that weekend, pay 50 for the ticket and maybe 75 for a shuttle or carpool with friends.


In SoCal, that would cost 150+ for earliest pre-sales.

Hold on.

Stop the fucking train....

ARE YOU SMOKING FUCKING CRACK YOU DUMBASS?

Are you really fucking serious right now? right fucking now!? YOU ARE FUCKING SERIOUS?!!?! If you said this to me in person I would punch you in the fucking mouth for being so fucking dumb. You obviously have no clue - HOLY FUCK.

I totally know I'm coming off as an asshat to some people right now, especially the asshat i'm replying to, but FUCK SHIT JESUS!

corporate rave or not. EDC's lineup is fucking SICK - no offense to the local talent playing at memf... but come the fuck on.

I cant even start re-listing names off that flier because its to fucking long to type out and just look at the flier...

MEMF > Ultra???
MEMF > EDC???

The only way I could see your argument even being half valid is if you are a 'hardcore' fanboy and are as equally close-minded as most hardcore fanboys -- but event then your argument holds very little merit.

Different strokes for different folks I always say but common now... Production value alone those parties are FAR.... and by far I mean FUCKING FAR superior to memf in every way, shape and form.

And no, I'm not talking shit about memf here... but we all know infared doesnt have hundreds of thousnands of dollars to pay for that kind of sound and lighting set up for multiple stages. Cut it out right now.

Memf is going to be a fun party - but better than edc and ultra? stfu. i dont want to hear another word from you.

adam you know I love you and all but this is fucking rich dude... you know it as well as I do.
