I can't say it's not on my mind. It's like the two things that people want more of. EDM and camping.
Phi said it last night best when he said he didn't know any of the initial line up from last year. There wasn't a lot of DJ's or EDM on that. You add camping to it, that may not bode well for us moogerfoogers.

The moog lineup, while featuring a lot of electronic leaning music, shares almost zero acts with your standard massives and/or rave fests. I'm not worried at all, to be honest.

It sounds incredible live, way more involving than you might think. It's so loud you can physically feel it all over your body, so even subtle shifts feel massive. They're pretty theatrical with robes and candles and all that, too.
Sunn O))) is kind of the drone equivalent to Skrillex.
I know what you're getting at but this sentence makes me uneasy.
I don't think I know what he is getting at. What are you getting at, kid?
Ok.
Sunn O))) is enormously popular within their specific sub-genre, but some drone purists turn their nose up at their music because it embraces a big, physical immediacy that the drier, academic side of avant-garde music tends to avoid. And you have your fair share of metal snobs that rip on them for adopting and diluting black metal tropes for the indie kids. It reminds me of how Skrillex gets crap from dubstep purists for his reliance on drops.
I love Sunn, don't like Skrillex. But I think both of them catch criticism from genre purists for knee-jerk reasons that aren't always fair.
Does anyone have any idea what the dates are going to be this year or when they are going to announce the dates? I need to take the time off from work.

Various websites are predicting Oct 26-28, however this still isn't "official" from Moog or SP/ACE. Those dates make the most sense, in my opinion. I have those dates off with work, and told them I may need to change them, but that its unlikely.
We are assuming the weekend before Halloween, though that's not official. I think GL has reserved his room for that weekend. I am planning a week in Nashville before Moog, and I am waiting on finalizing any plans until dates are announced.
Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.

Damnit....I just read through like a dozen posts before realizing this wasn't about the Great Googa Mooga food/music festival in Brooklyn. I was getting so confused. Need to learn to read better.

I have. It's nothing more than a hunch at this point though.
I also feel good about both Washed Out and Purity Ring being there.
