FLOWER POWERELECTRIC DAISY CARNIVAL DANCES INTO TOWN FOR THE FIRST TIME

Chicks in neon bikinis, psychedelic robots, and carnival rides. This could only mean one of two things: 1) Burning Man on Mars in the year 3000 or 2)Electric Daisy Carnival in Chicago in the year 2013. The infamous six-city dance music extravaganza explodes in an orgy of glitter-coveredinsanity this Memorial Day weekend at Chicagoland Speedway. A feast for the eyes, ears, and senses, it's an otherwordly realm where bright colorsand body paint serve as the background for an acid-fueled fantasy updated for themodern age of EDM supremacy. On stage are dozens of DJs from world-class superstars Tiësto and David Guetta tosexy up-and-comers Blond:Ish and local dance maniacs Midnight Conspiracy. More than 500 theatre troupes roam the grounds in an all-encompassing adultplayground complete with a Ferris wheel and fireworks. Who the hell would ever want to leave this place, since Chicago is the first and only EDCto offer on-site camping at the event once the beats die down at 4a each night? ‘Cause sweaty beatheads covered in glowsticks probably get pulled over more oftenthan not.
