| Rumors are May 26 and 27. Your thoughts on it coming back for another year? Call me crazy but I would pick EDC over Ultra any day. Better set up, cheaper, better crowd, more room to move, plenty of places to take a piss without feeling like your in the most disgusting place on earth, some actually grass, my list could go on. Yes, the main stage can't compare and a Carl Cox arena is second to none but the bottom line is I had way more fun without the hassle of Miami bull. |

I'm glad it's coming back and if those dates come out to be true that's even better. Will give Ultra some competition, since Insomniac is knocking on their door.
I loved the Grass and everything you mentioned, but honestly the first day of EDC was quite boring until Gabriel & Dresden and after that it was fun.
Saturday was way better in terms of line-up for me at least. Markus, Ferry, Benny, and then PvD. Who with his stage set-up was insane. Then again, it's PvD.
For the pricepoint its not bad. I think I bought mine early-bird for like $100, so not bad at all. Like I said the line-up was pretty lackluster so if I go back I won't even go right when it opens I'll just wait until the act's I want to see show up.
As for Ultra, I agree that it's a bit dirty but this year its at Bayfront. So that won't be an issue. Again I got my tickets early-bird so that was like $200. I don't feel shafted like the rest of the folks who had to pay close to $500.
It'd be nice for Insomniac to come into Miami and run a 3-day EDC. Honestly Orlando is just not a good place for it to be. Who wants to go to an after party that will close at 2-2:30? Especially when leaving EDC at 12 and having to drive through traffic. By the time you get there parties done. |

Can't wait for this year's EDC Orlando! I live 2 miles from the Citrus Bowl...last year I only did the first day because I had already bought tickets for the Detroit festival. Was definitely a mistake -- all of my friends and girlfriend went to EDC both days while I flew to Detroit...very awkward. DEMF was amazing, don't get me wrong, but I had been wishing for an Orlando festival for a while and it happens I only get to go to half of it!
I think it's going to be so much better this year. I think 2011 was a test run in Orlando for Insomniac. People showed up and it was a success so I can only imagine they're going to really do it up well this time around. The Friday lineup must be better though! |

| it wasnt bad for the price but it still could of been so much better. hopefully this year they use the actual citrus bowl. that would make it epic. and if it grows anything like the tiesto ucf shows did from the first year to the second this could defiantly have major potential. itll all come down to the lineup though. hopefully its not as dubstep heavy as last year. |

| i agree... G&D ripped it friday, and saturday night was pretty awesome. would love to see them do it again, but i dont know if Orlando is the best place to do this when everything there closes so early. |

Orlando is pretty much the only place. I highly doubt they will do anything here in Miami. Or should I say Ultra will let them... |
