Electric Daisy NYC Already Sold Out?

There are rumors from the Dancing Astronaut that the Electric Daisy Carnival NYC is already SOLD OUT. Apparently the tickets went on sale at 3pm/March 2nd on Ticketmaster and got taken off quickly so they could raise the 2 day pass price to $171. Then three hours later, there were none to be found :( I tried myself and there were none available to me. The scalpers won this one; tickets are now on sale through Stubhub and the cheapest ones I have found are more than $200.

Both Electric Daisy and Pacha have not released any statements on this matter. I'm hoping Ticketmaster will be able to re-stock them, or the ticket prices on Stubhub will go down closer to the event date. I guess time will only tell.

Electric Daisy Comes to New York!

The Electric Daisy Carnival, the annual three day electronic music festival in Las Vegas, has just announced they will be coming to NEW YORK on May 19 and 20th!! They do not have a location or a lineup as of yet but it will be announced soon according to Billboard. The festival is 18+ (WHICH I LOVE) = no high school teeny boppers overdosing on drugs. Tickets go on sale Friday March 2nd at 3 PM. I'm assuming some of the lineup will be announced by then?

Feeling some competition, Bamboozle? Not only are these two festivals the same weekend, but it is rumored Electric Daisy may fill Giants Stadium which is Bamboozle's annual location. This is frustrating because for someone like me, a fan of rock and electronic music, I'd go to both so I feel they're both ultimately losing $$. Since Electric Daisy JUST announced their NYC dates and Bamboozle tickets has been on sale since Christmas + have regularly been promoting their lineup, I think Bamboozle may win the fans in this one. Also Bamboozle has confirmed Datsik and Skrillex in their lineup so those are two top artists Electric Daisy WILL NOT be booking.

Regardless, I may sell one of my Bamboozle day passes to be able to go to both. Well this sucks.

On a lighter note, I can't get enough of KDrew. He is an up and coming dubstep artist from Howell, New Jersey whose songs are ultra catchy. You can download his songs for free on SoundCloud. Enjoy!
