I live in the South Eastern United states and i can only afford to go to one big festival this year My options are: Bonnaroo Ultra Music Fest Counterpoint
Have any of you been to any of these? Which is best? Im thinking Bonaroo or Counterpoint because i like the option of camping

I just got back from Bear Creek (my first festival ) with some shroomerites and had a fucking amazing time. I met a ton of people and a lot of them told me they were going to be preparing for Bonnaroo,I think that is where I will be headed next. Festies are fucking amazing though, one of the best times I've had my entire life, I'm already depressed to be home.

Not Bonnaroo. If I could remove 80% of the festival goers, I would go back to Bonnaroo. It's gotten frat-ish, sketch, and dirty.

I would go to Wanee, Wakarusa, or Allgood but that's just my taste in music. Out of the ones you listed I would vote for counterpoint.

Memes, youre in my area... What's a good festival within a reasonable drive of DC? I almost bought tickets for the last day of electric zoo in NYC since I was already going to be there. Glad I didn't.
Went to echostage on Saturday night, and the club scene in DC has gotten so uptight and unfriendly, compared to when I used to go to nation. That place was awesome.

I love echostage. Did you go to psychedelic nightmare last year?? I agree it has gotten more unfriendly but only for huge shows with big headliners. If you can catch it when badass raves or kupcake throws an event its gold. The scene has gone downhill across the map. Mainly due to publicity and research chems. With so many more drugs available its bound to bring out the sketch balls who are tryna make a couple hundred dollars off their easily obtainable bath salts.
OP. I would do counterpoint. Last year was insane. Bonaroo is good too but def getting dirty. They all are but if your truely down for the cause you can pick out the douchebags a mile away. Good people are still attending these gatherings.

I miss old festival days. Most fests have become something of a frat party nowadays. I do enjoy Jam Band concerts though.

I like going to smaller music festivals. Bonnaroo sounds like a fucking shitshow.

Koods- I'm in your area as well. Our last festy within reasonable drive time went down Nov 2nd in Maryland. Like 20 mins away. Check out big dub in august. Its a smaller festival 3-5000 people but its the shit. The vibes are unmatched and the land its held on is divine. You should travel to Baltimore on new years eve for lazer disco at the paradox by ravens stadium. Always a banging ass party.

I went to see Markus Schilz and Ferry Corsten. First off, all the nice loungy type areas are restricted - you have to buy a fucking table, which nobody did, so all these comfy chairs were sitting there unused. There were a literally like ten couches to sit on in the whole club. I was totally rolling my ass off for an hour where I needed to sit and the vibe was very weird. Back in the day, if you were rolling like I obviously was, people would be all over you giving you attention, giving you light shows and back massages - nobody would sit there all alone for an hour like I did. Meh. What can you do. I don't have a time machine.

If you ask what fest to go to and put Bonnarroo on the list, meaning your considering it means that you need to do some research or you'll fit in. Either way I'm not giving you any input as you obviously have no clue and aren't there for the music.
So how's everyone's night going so far?
I just got off work and busted my ass for a solid 8 hours with only one smoke break. Not because my boss is a dick, hell I'm the veteran on site, but because I get paid good for how good I work and I don't take advantage of situations like that. Instead I impress those around me.
What did you guys do for the day?
