I went to s Skrittles show in St. Louis and I was really turned off by the type of people there. I'm typically not the type of person that judges other people right off the bat, but this seemed to be a different situation.
;D
I really wish I had any photoshop ability right now
Why? To make a Skittles version of Skrillex named Skrittles? hahahaha
I only have 59,666 characters left and that is not enough room for all the lulz this deserves.
These were all the characters I needed:
"Why does this matter? For me, it's because I have to unfriend people for posting this slop. I choose my friends strictly by what music they choose to listen to. Okay, that is not entirely true, but the lingering truth in this exaggeration is that I instinctively question the sonic processing capacity of my peers that choose to endorse this fad in the public forum. This so-called artistic representation poses an even bigger question about the state of music in the meta-game sense. "

What will the Skrillex project do to make up for turning a subsection of the current generation's youth into tasteless, instant gratification addicted morons that are perfectly okay with what slop passes for music these days? That seems harsh, and I recognize that, but according to this so-called music, being abrasive translates well to the youth these days.
The girl in rhodesrs' sig looks about 15. This thread just got really weird.
She's at a college football game, I'm guessing she's college-aged.
Not just any state college, but the fine school known as the University of Arizona. No I don't know her, but I too was in the student section for that game.

This is the first message board I've ever been on, the only reason I joined is because I love Bonnaroo and wanted to read and talk about it all year long.
I read this from top to bottom. All this reads like is some uber-elitist hipster douch.ebag that has his panties all up in a twist over one f*cking "bastardized American dubstep artist". Jesus christ, if i didn't know better, this guy makes it seem like Skrillex came over to his house and dropped a huge smelly turd right in his bowl of cherrios as he was reading the morning paper. Its MUSIC!!!!! But apparently this guy thinks that its the beginning of the End of Days.
I haven't LOL'd so hard in awhile. And this in no way is an attack on klimfactor, you sir are an awesome poster and great asset to this board.
Seriously... You guys gotta relax a bit here... Sure a lot of "Bros" are into skrillex but those are the same people who can't go 1/2 day without showering and lots of gel... AKA the types who have no interest in Bonnaroo. The kids willing to brave the heat, make the trip to TN, and put up with all the hipster Douchbags and wookies... And also happen to be fans of Skrillex... aren't gonna ruin your experiences at the 'roo so how about we all just relax a little bit here... "Ohhh an artist from an underground genre made it mainstream! Ohhh wohh is me! Ohh the humanity!!".... Legit. SuckItEasy people.

There's a profile piece in the new Rolling Stone on Skrillex. From the piece, it appears Skrillex is hard working and cares about his craft (insert your jokes here). It also appears he is prone to drinking too much and saying some pretty asinine things.
Most definitely a fun little saying. And I hope I don't have to miss out on Minosa or SBTRKT for Skrillex... And not fOr nothing but like people have said EDM has blown up and at least Bonnaroo didn't go overboard with it.
I came away thinking the same thing, Duddits. You can definitely tell he's young - but living the life, too. If I was in my 20s and had access to that money, adulation, etc. I likely would have exploded, and I probably would have said something a lot more idiotic than "I like aliens."
I'm happy for Skrillex. I really am. It seems like he's a genuinely nice dude who is genuinely amazed and in awe at the amount of success he is getting. He seems like he deserves it, on a "nice people deserve nice things" level.
On a "good musicians deserve popularity " level... that's where I start to take issue.
