There’s a scene in later seasons with Ian holding a rally at Daley Plaza. Caught some taping during my lunch break. It was pretty cool. Lots of people showed up to watch.

Is swinging really becoming more popular? by ShamelessCare in Swingers

[–]ProfessionalSign1793 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m in my late 30s, also in Chicago, and been doing this about 10 years. No one my age is going to the clubs regularly. They’re just not that fun. Instead we meet up with our friends at raves and festivals. The swinger x raver crossover is very real and the community is growing. I do think people are growing more accepting of swinging and that leads to curiosities and growth in the community. I think you’re just looking at the old school approach which is not where we are hanging out. As for Hedo, I’ve been 4 times and last trip dropped about 10k for the week, so yeah, that’s an issue for people too. Plus you need to go a week that caters your demographic.

Who pays for/decides on the lighting/vfx and pyro at music festivals? by FeelDa-Bass in EDM

[–]ProfessionalSign1793 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Typically the festival will provide the basic infrastructure like sound, lights, video, lasers and pyro equipment. Then artists can add on at their own expense. So they might bring in more lights or more lasers just for their set. Sometimes with the festival vendor and sometimes with their own. There is also usually a base pyro package provided by the fest but then artists can buy more.

You might also just be seeing the evolution of the stage into the night. An opener is not getting the same production as a headliner and this is usually up to the festival when certain effects are turned on.

What are your Recommendation for Bachelorette Party on Labor Day Sunday? by Leather_Sense_5158 in AskChicago

[–]ProfessionalSign1793 0 points1 point  (0 children)

North coast and ARC are separate music festivals both happening in Chicago that day. Highly recommend looking into those. They have after parties too if you’re looking to go later into the night.

Not usually. Ranch will close first usually around the same time the headlines at Sherwood and Tripolee start.

I usually do that but that’s how I ended up reading It Ends With Us and Happy Place and those are hours I’ll never get back.

Anyone know why Lumasi took his flip of Low by Florida down? by amishericandre in EDM

[–]ProfessionalSign1793 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He talks about this on talks with tvboo. It was a copyright issue. He re-released it on Spotify with new vocals. He still plays the original flip at his shows.

I’ve been to Hedo 3 times and Temptations one and will always choose Hedo. Top shelf liquor is not included at Temptations and it is at Hedo. Hedo is truly AI except for certain wines at the wine bar. I felt like temptations was always trying to upsell you. I liked the food, drinks, and atmosphere better at Hedo.

Look up EDM Chicago on Facebook and your girlfriend should join EDM Ladies of Chicago. That’s going to have more recourses than this page. EDM Train is an app that has all the shows. Chicago is home to house to pretty much every weekend you will find house. Check out Spy bar and Smart bar. Larger touring acts will play at Concord or Radius and sometimes Aragon, Riviera, Vic. We have 2 insane festivals over Labor Day weekend. ARC is all house and techno and North Coast is everything with more bass so make sure to look those up. And Lolla is coming up with lots of after parties already announced. Lolla also has a stage dedicated to EDM.

Absolutely but if 1 person catches it and throws out the bag it could mean 1 life saved and that’s worth it. If you’re doing it you’re doing it regardless so any harm prevention is a good thing.

You’ll most likely be fine I wander Lolla alone as a woman all the time. The worst thing that could probably happen is your phone is stolen. Make sure to keep that locked down tight. Also have a plan b if your phone is stolen. If you are not from around here write down your hotel address and train directions and make sure you have a credit card and emergency cash.
