This was a great time last year and look's like it will be great again. 3 solid areas both days with talent outside of the go to Insomniac tech roster. The Girls and Boys lineup adds a 4th area Sunday.

Even the Main stage looks palatable (Bob Moses, Claptone, Empire of the Sun, Netsky)

I think there may be some very cheap tickets available on Stubhub as the EDM market is very vocally upset at the lack of usual headliners.

Bethel is breath taking.


Yes I know, obligatory Detroit comments.

Also 21+ makes a difference.

weak lineup this year compared to last. i had so much fun last year but really expected a lot more from ML again. EDCNY lineup blows this shit away but id much rather party at a 21+ event plus camping. that being said there are some high quality DJs and stages and im sure this year will be enjoyable once again being back camping at bethel woods. again, i just expected more from them after all the hype and delay on releasing this.

detroit > all

not an apples to apples comparison. everyone knows for just techno MDW you go to detroit. for multi genre and camping on a picturesque setting and 21+ you go to ML. combined with all the other attractions they bring with the healing garden and things, it still is a great time. i just wish they would have put far more effort into the lineup again this year like last.

Not a straight comparison.
But, it is taking place the same weekend, so if you have to choose, you have to compare them.

I'm totally with AY here:

The line-up is way better in Detroit.
Most of the stuff that is at ML but not in Detroit is pretty forgettable stuff.
Where ML could have been good but is mostly AWOL is with jamtronica, such as Tribe, Lotus, Ott, DB, Boombox, EOTO, Particle, that sort of thing.

And this is just me:
I could care less about the non-music offerings, seems like a waste of time.
But the main turn-off: no car camping.
The stuff-schlepp that requires is such a pain.

Camp Bisco was way better on both counts (mostly car camping), and Camp heads who did ML confirm that.

I have to admit though that ML isn't bad as such, Bethel Woods is a nice place for sure

Heard that one in December in Berlin, and I think it pretty much expresses it well.
Got the same feedback about BPM.
guess it depends on what you like, music and party-wise

What's Mysteryland like? I'm thinking about going as my little mini vacation before I get really busy during the summer. I'm looking to do the camping as well. I love to camp and this plus the festival atmosphere has my interests piqued.

EDC NY locked down all the big names for both Mainstage & Underground. Insomniac in it for the kill
