Elecrtic Daisy Carnival 06

Anyone here go?

It was my first time going and it was fun, but unorganized. I was surprised Ferry Corsten was playing early. For some reason no one there had a schedule list.

I went, wasn�t impressed at all though, only set besides infected mushroom's that i liked was John 00 Flemmings.

Ferry came in just way too late and his set wasn�t that big.

Btw, depending on what time you came in, you should have gotten a line-up schedule @ the front gate.

Yeah I went with Fusic...overall I thought it was cool experience too. The event itself was massive and the chicks there w00000000h but the dj sets yeah i would have to agree with Fusic. Fleming and Lawrence rocked (i mean tranced) and sound system and lights awesome as well. And infected mushroom wowwwwwww honestly was never a huge fan of theirs in past, but after yesterday, i guess they sound much better live than on a cd or vinyl. haha anyone recall from last night what happened with infected mushroom? they went like 5 minutes overtime then they were supposed to since fans kept encoring them to stay, and then this security guard was getting mad as hell! lol it was funny seeing him on side of stage tryin to convince them to get off haha

As for Infected Mushroom sorry but I had to remove the link before I exceed my bandwith limit SOMEONE PLEASE HOST!!!

Haha, Sure do. I think that was the funniest moment at the event!

(The Guy in the middle is the security guard that was trying to get them off the stage)

Gabriel and Dresden going on right after Infected Mushroom ='s THE BIGGEST FUCKING MISTAKE IN THE HISTORY OF EDM

Thanks a bunch Electrophile for posting the video!

LOTS MORE VIDEO COMING!!!!

lol knew the edc schedule would be a massive clusterfuck will someone please do it right and put all the pop-fluffy stuff in the front and the hard psy-goa at the end????? i don't understand the difficulty behind this concept... i'm sure sandra, g&d and ferry didn't appreciate getting shown up by the harder djs' energy level any more than the harder djs having to tone their sets down for the lighter ones. i heard it was an issue with booking agents, but even these guys, ESPECIALLY these guys should know better... if it went sandra -> g&d -> ferry -> c law -> j00f -> infected mushroom, probably all the djs would have sounded good and that flow just makes so much more sense!

There was some tension between Sandra and J00F, as Sandra was being a TOTAL DIVA! She was so rude, she just walked on stage in front of John (a half an hour late I might add) and was just trying to be the center of attention, John's face changed and you could see that he was VERY upset. Sandra gave him a dirty look as John mixed into Xerox and Illumination - Battleship (Thanks John ) to which John gave her an F YOU smile with two thumbs up PRICELESS!!!!!

the order of the lineup sucked ass.

in my opinion this is how i rank the dj's last night:

1. Christopher Lawrence
2. J00F
3. Ferry
4. Infected Mushroom
5. G&D
6. Sandra Collins

Thats all I saw really...I went out to see a lil bit of Mark Farina. I liked the bit that I heard.

I had a pretty good time despite being exhausted from a long week of little sleep. My friend and I got SUPER faded before going into EDC. We killed a bottle of Bacardi limon. But by the time the sun went down, we were already sobered up. Haha. It was cool kickin it with Electrophile, Rocky, Wally, SCG, Neinerlove, Gypsygirl. I got to meet Gordy and saw Robert Stern for a few seconds. I think thats all the TA's I ran into.

I thought the house lineup was weak. Seems like the same people year in and year out.

The bartenders hooked me up with some ridiculous strong drinks. I tipped them well right off the bat and after then they were generous with me.

I was upset with all the parents that took their little kids with them to this event. Kids do not belong in this environment. Not with everyone openly doing drugs and shit.

It was mad crazy packed near the front of the trance stage. Had there been more room I would have danced. But with my tired legs I was satisfied with just chillin and taking in the beats. There was nothing really throughout the night that blew my mind. I was talking to some peeps and I am thinking this may be my last rave. I dont know. Also with trance...I am just not feeling it as much as I used to. Just like Faded, I may be moving on. We'll see. I know we still got our savior Sander Van Doorn. He is keeping my trance interest alive.

I was originally going to crash with Electrophile after EDC, but he had gone home like an hour before EDC ended. My friend and I decided to just drive back to Santa Barbara. Oh man was that a rough drive. Good thing I was sober but I still kept nodding off at the wheel. I think the lights from the other cars makes me drowsy. I don't know whats up with that.

Overall, it was cool to get away from Santa Barbara for the day/night. It was cool seeing some old friends....Ania aka Sooshimonster. Haven't seen her since one of the last Heaven's I've gone to. I texted some of my 'dark side' peeps and let them know I wish I had been at the Sasha event. After reading the reviews from that event I don't think I missed much. Word. Electrophile in '06.

Sorry to hear about the petty drama and complaints but......

I personally really enjoyed J00f, Sandra, and G & D. To me there sets were banging and with the most hard driving bass lines, lots of build ups and change ups. I enjoyed most of infected mushroom, but did really care for all the guitar riffs, too much like a rock bad for me. Lawrence and Ferry didn't really impress me to much, there sets were too flat and didn't really go anywhere, no big build ups or change ups in their sets.

Got to see some of DJ Colette (sp?), DJ Heather and Mark Farina, traveled to the Dome and got some sick video in there, also hung in the D n B room as well.

Overall the best time for me was hanging with Julies San Diego crew (after meeting them at WMC i knew they were fucking rock stars) and bumping into some of my favorite TAs. Can't believe Eric, Robert and their lovely girls showed up last min. Also enjoyed seeing Bjorn and his hottie, Mike Lord (look like you were having a lot of fun-dont know why you bailed early ) Malia, Julie, Thrax (didnt get to run into Chris Reddick and his girl though ), as well as some of my WiredLA friends. The secret to going to a big rave is hanging with 15-20 people deep, that way you concentrate on the crowd you are with and make sure you walk around the venue and see other attractions rather than staying in the same spot and over analyzing behind the scene shit, and if you dont like the hot sweatty shirtless guys overcrowding the front, then stay in the back or on the side and get a tall Lemonaid. No reason to be stubborn and ruin your own night. Also getting a hotel is totally worth it if you dont live near by. Bella Sierra Merlot and White Wine FWT!!!

I ended up going on one of the rides with Desyn and that was totally intense, but luckily didn't make me sick. VIP for me was totally worth it, I threw back about 5 vodka cranberry drinks, 4 waters, 2 club sodas and 3 rock stars. Only spent about $10 while I was there, for tipping the bartender and buy a pack of gum. Got to go back stage and take pics with a few DJs before they went on. Overall a flawless night.


Pics to come soon

After Infected Mushroom nothing could phaze me!!! I bailed out as soon as G&D showed their faces and wandered around for a bit. I went to the TA meet up at the bridge which consisted of me meeting up with crack heads and E-tards since no TA's ever showed I wandered around for a bit more then went in for C Law. I hung around in the middle of the crowd for like 20 minutes but I just couldn't get into his set, not after what Infected Mushroom had just done! So I bailed out. When I got to the parking lot I noticed it was still full and all the cars were covered in dust so what did I do............? I started drawing penises on the windshields as I walked back to my car, I must have drawn over 100 because it took me like 30 minutes to get to my car LOL. If you had had a penis on your car when you got out of EDC that was me

Actually, it was the stage mananger. Since Sandra came a half an hour late, the whole schedule was messed up, so he was trying to get things back to the original time schedule...

this was prolly the worst G&D set I've ever heard. I am a HUGE fan of theirs too. I just gave my TTD vinyl to my friend. I was like "get this f'n shit out of my face." LOL.

if sandra collins was 30 min late to her gig, she should have only been allowed to finish out her remaining slot imo... that's cool j00f got a full 2 hours though

that's pretty much what my expectation for the event was gonna be, for some reason g&d are never as good as when they play in sf, maybe it's the extended sets they do here? i was kinda puzzled the first time i heard them in la...

yeah he played some really good shit. He played this sick remix of Chemical Brothers - Hey boy hey girl, and this bootleg remix of Ferry Corsten's Rock Your Body Rock.

That is exactly what happend Infected Mushroom got on promptly at 10:15.

Oh, all you J00F fans will be happy...a majority of the pics I have from EDC are him performing. The rest are lake shots, Drum n Bass shots, and some Sandra Collins.
