Electric Forest Festival 2012

OH MY GOD!! I would do just about ANYTHING to attend The Electric Forest Festival in Rothbury, Michigan. This festival runs June 28th - July 1st and their 2012 initial headliners have just been announced. I am most excited for Bassnectar, Major Lazer, Zed's Dead, Girl Talk, 12th Planet, Borgore and The M Machine. Spending a summer weekend camping and listening to amazing music is definitely my cup of tea.

Although tickets are a little pricey, they offer a Work Exchange Team where you can work 12 hours a day throughout the weekend and go to the festival FOR FREE! They offer work in departments such as art, information, hospitality and VIP. And get this: you still can attend the entire festival without missing anything. This reminds me a bit of Bonnaroo's exchange program. You also have the option of joining their street team and competing for a ticket by promoting online.

For me, the idea of ridiculously colored lights + wilderness + electronic music is worth any price! Check out my favorite photos below (from their website) from their past years:

My favorite song by The M Machine - Promise Me A Rose Garden. On one of my favorite record labels, OWSLA!
