Does anyone know why EDC is called Electric Daisy Carnival? Yeah, I'm sure you or I could find out quickly with a google search but the majority of people reading this probably didn't even know that's what EDC stood for. Personally, I like my name better (I'm lying, those are the first 3 words that came to mind). I am no festival junkie by any means, not that it's a bad thing. Just have never been introduced to it before last weekend. If you haven't been, or to a festival similar, I would highly recommend it, and here's why: This is one of the only places you'll ever go that there's so many happy people around. No, really. I went and was mind blown observing all of the people from different walks of life I came across. Just gazing around I saw couples probably in their 30s to 40s, but also college aged kids just having a great time. You're listening to world renowned DJs performing for the sole intention of entertaining everyone. It's gotta be expected. Now, it's not an unknown fact that a lot of the crowd that goes to these events do some type of drug to "enlighten" their experience. It could honestly be why there are so many happy people around. The way I see it, don't let them bother you, and it won't affect your experience. One kid sucked. He didn't want to get off the boat ride. You bet there's rides. And you better have bet I rode that boat ride. Good vibes onward though. The atmosphere is unreal. It's practically Halloween again. Everyone wearing what they feel expresses themselves most. There was this one kid that asked for some water, I obliged then realized he had a pink and a green contact in. Even then, you could tell he was rolling (Urban Dictionary is your friend here). Just glad I could help. My favorite part was that it wasn't like a concert where you're locked in to listening to the same artist for hours. Once you get bored, walk a short distance and boom: you're at a whole new stage and artist. The fact that the festival is 2 days long, running from 1-12 is just the icing on the cake. One thing I couldn't go without mentioning though is the giant mozzarella sticks. My mouth is watering right now thinking about them. Some how I have yet to mention that mozzarella sticks are my go-to food. These were the best mozz sticks I've ever had. Instant regret not buying a second day pass; even if it were only to get a second round of them. If thinking festivals aren't your thing I highly recommend stepping out of your box and trying one. I included a video below of one of my favorite sets.
