    Expect to be surrounded by 14 year olds at Dayglow. Paint parties are fun, and Dayglow tours with a really nice lighting and sound rig, but if you have a low tolerance for little snot nosed teenagers, I'd avoid it lol.

    Then again, if you're a pedo, you'll think you died and went to heaven.

    (All based on my experiences going to one of the parties, don't know if all of them are all ages or not)

    That Smog vs Basshead lineup looks nice, but I wouldn't travel very far to go to it. Events that are pretty much single genre are kinda boring. If you're going to have mutiple stages or rooms, mix that shit up a little bit.

    Edit: If I were going to go to England for a festival, it would definitely be Bestival, not Download.

    Haven't heard of that one, but then again I'm a mainstream metal sellout and my cousin played there in 2010

    I don't think there's a real leaked Reading and Leeds lineup yet. The pic of the poster is fake.

    Oh shit that Forecastle lineup is pretty sick. I'm hitting a bunch of Florida festivals this spring/summer (Aura music fest next week!) but I kind of want one big one to go to. Only thing that might make me say "meh" is that I'm likely seeing Bassnectar and Beats Antique up in Tallahassee in April. Fuck would I like to see Atmosphere though...

    Probably going to do Electric Forest since so many friends are already going. Pretty Lights is my #1 desire but I doubt its gunna happen this summer...

    I was thinking about going to Bamboozle in Asbury Park, but there's only like three bands I wanted to see and they're all playing on different days. Shit would cost me like $200 for all three days.

    Shit, $200 for 3 days? God, I don't think I've ever spent less than $1000 for a 3 day festi anywhere other than the town I live in.

    That's quite a bit of money when I don't want to see 90% of the bands.

    Eh, festivals are as much about discovering new bands as they are seeing your favorites...if not more so. Go in with an open mind, plenty of awesome groups out there that just haven't gone mainstream or made a name for themselves. I know (and not all that well) like 4 or 5 groups at the festival im going to in a week, but it doesn't matter.

    this^^^^^

    I had the same mind set before going to my first festival, despite the fact that two of my good friends swore up and down on how amazing this [any] festival is.

    Afterwards I had a wide variety of new favorite bands. I went from hating jam bands to being way to hippie for my own good sometimes. My musical palate evolved at a dramatic rate.

    I'm having trouble choosing between Electric Forest and All Good this year. EF's lineup is out already and looks spectacular but I'm hoping All Good pulls out a few more healiner/late night sets; but right now All Goods current lineup isn't as stellar as last year.
