We Survived TomorrowWorld 2015, And Tried To Have Fun
The companies behind TomorrowWorld should be ashamed for their negligence, but when life gives you lemons, make lemonade.
National news has been in an uproar about the hellacious conditions and poor planning at this years' TomorrowWorld. We were on the scene, at least in dreamville where there were swampy campsites, flooded bathrooms and mountains of garbage. The company has posted a refund policy on their site, you can check out if your ticket qualifies. SFX and ID+T should be held responsible for their laziness, and everyone including headliners are stepping forward against the companies.
Despite the conditions we tried to have fun.
On Thursday was Dreamville's Gathering party. This was the pre-party to the actual festival. Personally this is my favorite part of the entire festival. They bring in up and coming DJs and some big greats to warm up the dreamville crew before the real madness begins. The top 2 DJs we saw, in my opinion were Tujamo and Black Tiger Sex Machine.
The electro-house producer, Tujamo, is a veteran to the Gathering party. He always brings the hardest beats and the greatest crowds every year. Throughout his set people were dancing, jumping and yelling. Following Tujamo was the trio known as Black Tiger Sex Machine. The group looks like a cross between Deadmau5 and Keys n Krates. Their light up helmets were the first I had seen since Deadmau5, and they were enough to differentiate the two artists. The group kept the energy high through the night, and the rest of the Gathering set the tone for the rest of the weekend.
Overnight, the rain hit hard and several tents were flooded. We found our campsite decided to "upgrade" us to waterbeds, and our tents were soaked. Unfortunately for us, we were on the decline, so we got a lot of runoff water from the rain. However, we just cleaned up as much as we could, and got ready to go into the festival.
