Nothing more horrible to anyone over 23 than a camp out music festival. If you have your own home and youre own bed, there is nothing at all appealing about sleeping in a tent next to 5000 drunk kids. This is best left for the college set and well- with good reason.
It takes a special breed to partake in these festivals and the Mysteryland event is no different. A staple in the European Fest scene this year it parks its neon ass right in Bethel New York. Direct competition to Camp Bisco? Hmm, this one takes place Memorial Day weekend, so at least the heat shouldn’t be that intense.
The line up is your typical thump DJ’s, the festivals U.S. debut, includes headliner Kaskade along with Steve Aoki,Nicky Romero, Moby, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike and more for Mysteryland at the site of the original Woodstock grounds.
Wait…Moby? Is there another Moby? Who the hell invited Moby? Moby? Whaaa?
Aside from your regular drug induced frolic there are side offerings such as “Sunday School Mini-Fest” divided over three areas – The Big Top, The wood & mirrored Spiegeltent and the premiere of Mysteryland’s “Vinyl-Only” stage resurrecting the almost lost art of using only records to create the mix.
I’m thinking of starting a pool on how many idiot suburban kids are going to be hauled away in ambulances Im thinking 30 with three two deaths. Someone right that down. That being said there will be a sticky mess left behind and well… I guess it goes with the farmland at this point.
Tickets arent cheap so you’d better be nice to mommy and daddy or you’ll never get in. $300. for camping and concerts.. oh my what a lovely time. Oh, and why is there always the chick with the headband and tanktop with her arms up in the air and her mouth wide open in a “WaaaHOO’ holler for every press pic of these electronic fests? C’mon, lets get creative.
