MUSIC

– Whatever you do, don’t mess up and forget to go to Jungle 51 all weekend. If you’re a late night rider, this probably isn’t a concern. However, this spot is worth the sleep you’ll miss dancing into the night with artists like Honey Dijon and Volvox. Most of them rarely tour the southeast…so, this deep dark jungle in the middle of Florida is a pretty rare occurrence.
– Day. Time. SYLVAN ESSO. I dare you to find someone not smiling at the Be Stage on Friday afternoon *insert dancer girl emoji*
– Billie Eilish is about to be a huge pop star, even thought she’s only 16. Might as well see her, before she only does arena tours.
– THAT POWOW THO! Snoop Dogg + Chaka Khan + (I have recently become a big fan of) Joey Bada$$ + Dominic Lalli + more = a good time
– Lil Dicky is an awesome performer and should never be missed.
– For those who can make it, Thursday night’s Full Moon Party ft. Thriftworks, Opiuo, and Bassnectar will be one of the most unique festival experiences of the summer. Bassnectar festival sets have become quite the topic of debate. From the kids sitting on the rail all day, to the wooks in the back fucking with the first-time-trippers, to the sheer number of writhing bodies tightly confined for an hour…it can be A LOT to handle. Thursday night’s beach party has the potential to take a step back from that to a simpler time, where there were less selfies and more hugs.
