Here is a video I took entering through the main gate.
This was the only day we entered through this way since we had to pick up our will call tickets.
It was pretty insane walking into something like this

(sorry it's so shaky)

it must feel so awesome knowing you're walking into a party zone like that

it must feel so awesome knowing you're walking into a party zone like that

Dude when you walk in for the very first time you hear the music and as the sound gets louder you start getting the pump and when you finally see the first stage and the huge amounts of people everywhere from a distance all you can think in your head is "holy.. Fuck.. This is the fucking shit!"

[PornMaster]

Anyone have armins last set? Can't find it anywhere

[Timewav3zer0]

listening to these sets and remembering i was there live for them is still unbelievable...still going through edc withdrawal haha :(

:okay: too bad I missed out

[Obsideon]

obsideon and mx703...nice write ups! A once and a lifetime experience.

But the question is would I do it again? I would say it'll be largely dependent if you have a large circle of friends wanting to go again..and so far a lot of mine are saying no.

Travel to and from EDC was a nightmare and cost were a deterring factor. $15 for a beer or 40 dollar dinners...plus paying 5k for bottle service was insane.
My fault for not spending wisely but god dayum everything was hella expensive and added up pretty quickly. Also locating good candy was a problem. Ow yea...the Saturday cancellation (in which they had no control...I know) kinda sealed the deal.

Dont get me wrong it was a spectacle once you're finally in....don't regret going but wouldn't do it again considering other places I could of traveled with my money. EDC was a been there...done that experience.

Thanks, you are absolutely correct in your assessment of determining whether or not you want to go again next year, personally for me; I have a pretty high possibility of going again mainly due to a couple reasons:
1) I missed the first day and the 2nd day was cut short, but the 3rd day was EPIC. I want to try this again for all 3 days, plus staying in Vegas in itself is quite enjoyable, eating the buffets, watching some shows, shopping, soaking in the heat, gambling. Oh did I mention the Pool Parties were INSANE?! It was my first experience... and definitely won't be my last! :devil:
2) Quite a few of my friends missed out on it this year and they are pretty much 95% in for next year (especially after I told them how wicked it was), so that will be a major factor in my decision for EDC 2013.
3) The learning experience from going there my first day (Saturday) compared to going the 2nd day (Sunday) was a night and day difference. Just figuring out the best times to go to avoid traffic and exactly where to pick up the tickets, how the lines work, etc ... will make everything that much more smooth next year which is a bonus, no more wasting precious party time randomly looking for shit.

Didnt miss it , was there , wasnt crazy
Really?... you must be living some crazy lifestyle to NOT find EDC to be lots of fun, the music, the vibe, the people, it was great!

:( It's been a week, the weather isn't helping this post-Vegas/EDC withdrawal

LOL exactly!... I got off the plane in my shorts and sandels ... to find Vancouver pissing rain and cold ... as usual ... so depressing lol and it's been like this since I got back ... :okay:

Do you guys like the guy on the mic? It annoys the shit outta me if it's not the DJ and even if it is, he talks way too much. Let the music speak for itself.

[BinsentoW]

He was like that ALL THREE DAYS. A bit is ok, but this guy (mc villain) talks waaayy too much.
When headhunterz played "builder- her voice" he even goes da da da da dada da.
Now I know how annoying I am when I do that :troll:. At least I dont have a mic

i know that feel bro...

I took the week off work too. going back tomorrow. gonna be depressed :okay:

[Obsideon]

I know it's not a big deal but I was pretty stoked when Shogun showed up during Skyfire!... that is crazy! I've met him a couple times when he came to Ebisu to eat, nice guy. I was cheering for him when he came out!... I think it was during Dash's set?... so epic :sweetjesus:

[Mike Oxbig]

No shogun, showtek and JOC this yr :okay:

[Mike Oxbig]

i bet if cosmic gate & emma hewitt played at edc, something like this would have gone down

Cosmic Gate (http://www.edmtunes.com/2012/06/cosmic-gate-live-avalon-mdw-2012-27-05-2012/)

[knight604]

Showtek is trash.

[BinsentoW]

Ye, It was dash's set. Dash played man on the skyfire and they both jumped up on the table.
I thought I saw him after I left cosmic gate's pool party at tao on Sat, but wasnt sure. Just an asian with shades, a sleeve and a hat. My friend said it wasn't him though. I was staring at him, and he was staring back at me.
I was sad that there was no showtek too :(

Anyone see this guy at edc NSFW

I mean I don't pop or anything so i was drinking.

The pool parties were so amazing though.

I go out every weekend so i dont know maybe im just partied out.

[Mike Oxbig]

:blueguy: goes edc doesnt pop and says fuck edc... makes sense

[TPMarko]

you don't have to pop to have a good time at these things.

[BinsentoW]

I went totally sober on the fri and sun and had an awesome time.
Dropped on sat. And had an amazing time till they shut it down :(

[knight604]

It was fun being with the brothas but if we popped , i bet it would have been amazing.

[Vansterdam]

above n beyond @ commodore is prob one of the last times im ever gonna hear sun and moon as epic as that for awhile

wont ever compare to edc though

[Obsideon]

You don't have to pop to enjoy the music and the friendly people there, it was a great experience!
I agree the pool parties were off the hook! My first time going to one and I most definitely will be back again lol!

You go out every weekend... in Vancouver?... :seriously: ...
:lawl: Parties in Vancouver are sooooo crap compared to EDC or pretty much anywhere else in the world (Montreal, Taiwan, etc). After hitting up Vegas, I don't think I will EVER go to a club party in Vancouver anymore! Tired of looking at pancake-face LG's & wannabe gangsters acting hard instead of just having fun and enjoying the night out.

[knight604]

Its more of a social thing than anything , not to go out and score lgs and meet some heatbags.

I go out on fridays and just have some drinks and hang with my friends , every other day i have to work.

Industry life , it fucks with you!

[Obsideon]

You're missing the point bud.
I'm also in the industry so I haven't gone out to a club in Vancouver in ages (not that I'm missing much) ... my day off is a MONDAY!... but back on topic how does "hanging out and having some drinks" make EDC look weak? :fulloffuck: ... how can you even compare the two?
LOL I hang out and have drinks with friends all the time, it's fun an' all, but it ain't no Vegas party. I just thought your random comment about "fuck edc, it wasn't anything special" ... didn't make any sense at all

[Obsideon]

Once again you are comparing THIS:

I hope next year they are earlier on in the night. Their style would have got the crowd going nuts.

[knight604]

I guess Day 2 really bummed me out cause we were at the pool party at tao and that was so fun, was expecting an awesome night but once we arrived , it ended an hour after.

[Vansterdam]

kaskade / tritonal / cosmic gate/ atb / dash berlin / carl cox / gareth emery

are my favorite edc sets so far :D

U know what really bummed me out?

Got there at 12 and decided to have a drink with molly.

Right when it closed..................

[!e.lo_]

besides the fact that Saturday was a lost, and it was because of uncontrollable circumstances, as well as traffic was crazier than I would have suspected, edc was great.

will go again, but on different terms.
-small group of friends
-agree on ride times
-better hotel

- next year gonna go with my friends that couldn't make it this year
- figured out that leaving early will beat most traffic since most people treat it as a club there, EDC starts at 7, most people won't start heading there until 10. Start heading down at 6 and it's smooth sailing.
- which hotel did you stay at? I got Monte Carlo and was pleasantly surprised for the price I paid. Much better than Treasure Island.

Dada life and nicky romero sets are fucking amazing as well

I stayed in Monte Carlo too. Fairly satisfied, except for the monster line for check in on the first day due to computers down and no fridge in the room. But ice machine and bath tub = make shift cooler.

I took shuttle and left the hotel at 7:30 - 8:30 and it was fine. 20 min wait to get thru gate at EDC.

Shuttle line ups at 6-9 was pretty beast on sat and sunday.

Overall traffic wasn't that bad, you could expect to get there in an hour.

I chose Vdara and it was perfect
nice and clean, very quiet, connected and close to hotels and strip

[knight604]

Stayed at Mandarin Oriental , too nice there.

let's get a penthouse!

I cheaped out and went to Imperial Palace. The place was under renos and it sucked. No fridge, no safe, ice machines broke after filling one bucket. Harrah's next door was way nicer.

Totally agree with leaving around 6pm.

[Jayboogz]

^ a couple of my buddies did that up penthouse'd it

its been two weeks and these videos are bringing back memories of the weekend! sick!

Also anyone catch the teaser from ATB? :ahwow: ... lol I was so pumped to hear 'Till I Come! He started off with a couple notes, I was sitting cuz I was tired but I jumped right back up and I was ready to rock it ... then I never heard it again! :yuno:

I remember him doing that at "lucky" in seattle. At the end of his set, i yelled "fuck" so loud, people were looking at me weird. I hate how he does that.

[OTG-ZR2]

ATB always teases with 9 PM. I've only herd him play it once in a set, every time its just a quick snippet here and there in his sets. But it gets a reaction from the crowd every time.
