I only wish I could say that this was true of my entire weekend. Even if I only partied all night for one of the three nights, I still had a blast at my second DEMF/Movement experience. My introduction to the phenomena was two years ago by a DJ friend from Pittsburgh, where I first learned how to really party hard. Last year I regrettably missed the fest, and now I find myself having to relearn the ropes again. Apparently skipping a year and hanging out with hardly anyone who knows how to party like these people makes you lose your edge a bit...
Check out the TimeOut Chicago reviews of the first two days below:

Movement 2011 seems so far off, and I'm depressed by the thought of waiting that long for another ravefest. But I've already got a rebound strategy. For starters, I've got my ticket to the Chicago Deadmau5 show at Soldier Field on July 3rd. Check out the links for complete lineup and the ticket information:

Also, thanks to promotion at Detroit, I was made aware of the North Coast Music Festival happening for the first time at Union Park this year on Labor Day weekend. This is the only big-name-DJ heavy fest in Chicago that I'm aware of, and so I think I can safely say this was the best thing I've ever discovered at a porta-potty. Presale tickets went on sale today at 8am, and I've already added this to my ever-growing summer festival calendar. Again, lineup and ticket links below:

For all my friends who don't care for this scene, and for all the bands out there who make beautiful music the old-fashioned way,
I love you but I've chosen techno.
