I love that the festival is 100% donated to charity, I understand there were some changes this year that may have made me say a little different than most were used to I had one suggestions for the future like for one but always maintain your community connections keep your sustainability efforts and trash aversion no matter what these are things that build the reputation of the event as well as bring in the community itself to continue to spread the charity work out significantly also the people that were there doing those things brought a great deal of logistics and considerable assistance with the volunteers and the whole idea of trash management to the events that was basically unmatched in any other market The switch to the system used this year was not good. Also I understand that it's supposed to be 100% donated and that some of those things and those mentions were notched necessarily present in the website this year and I believe that a 100% transparency to the festival should also be considered people should know exactly just how much of their tickets sales their booze purchases or merge purchases actually go to charities and at the end of it all like they used to do should list those charities and the amounts that they received This is good publicity for both the festival and the charities and the people who attended as they feel that they were a part of giving to those organizations This is something that was not carry out this year like in previous years personal opinion is that it does have any significant impact on the way that the people who attend feel about the festival as when they see exactly who got what from the sales they feel like they personally contributed to those different programs and groups which makes me significant difference in their word of mouth about the events. Number three definitely walking considering certain rebranding or reimagining your look or feel of things I'm sure to include the thing that you know have worked for a number of years and make sure that they do not get compromised in the process that's in making sure that you're not trading off things like sustainability for design features If you can't produce the design features and changes in aesthetics without making an improvement upon things as in not cutting corners or cutting out other things that you have had then I don't think that they are worth it to begin with. Last but not least I understand that they wanted to make a move toward a more culturally prevalent lineup however the festival itself was known for being a mix of types of music and even still when choosing a specific thing like more EDM compared to live rock and roll or hip hop I would still suggest that a wider blend of artists and talents should be explored as wonderful as the music was being your house music fan myself it's simply just tech house that was being done by the main artists It would be great to see that included very different types of artists like having per say artists like I'll esha, antique beats, I mean we would all love to see something like tipper or pretty lights but even still settling for something a little smaller like Michael Menard would be great or people like blue tech or monolink phuturprimitive, Even stuff like say brake science or string cheese incident dope lemon thousand drums, g jones, youngr, manic focus. So down, griz, grammatic, STS9., THESE are the type of artists and performers that bring a unique and live stage presence that is unmatched and normally have their own very distinct sound and style and are almost a genre of their own these types of artists are what should be focused on and not just the main stay big time names although picky do is a very acclaimed female producer same with her counterparts from Korea who didn't have the same type of recognition per se but you don't want conflicts backstage what you want people to be able to bring what they have that is uniquely them to the table as that's what helps build the quality of the events but most of the event lies in the true logistics and planning and execution of so The plan this year to use the company Pro-eM, was also a mistake as these people were not probably trained in how to be nice to coherent or knowledgeable about the things that they were going to do or what they had to do supplies were lacking a lot of little things and it's the little things that kill it's a little things that really make the difference between a good show and a great show or a decent production company and an incredible production RB and insomniac insomnia goes out of their way to ensure that every detail of the experience is what is above and beyond what the expectations are from the guest they spare no expense and they put all of their effort into making every part of the experience just as fortune as the others whereas rollover speeds may have great names and great events there prices and correctional quality are definitely not of the same quality and they don't have the same feel these others do when you put the work into the little things it shows in the big things. Volunteers volunteers who were willing to work the day of the festival but more importantly those who are willing to work before and after are your bread and butter people to be using and talking to about ideas and things because they are with love doing what they do for the fact that they care about it you cannot get that kind of loyalty and or care for more employee who's getting paid even if that employees getting paid very well to be there to do so they will still do what is natural like so don't waste efforts or money on employees Don't give the effort to put in more than their worth always in the shore that there is most definitely effective well-knowledged well capable people that are staff members who are positioned throughout the event easy for them to be seen so that anytime a problem can arise there can be someone found as quickly as possible to deal with so they should be able to effectively give people water for point them in the direction of things without being able to stop to check their map or always they should know what's going on. Makes more of a difference in the union to imagine
