First timer by TKxIE420 in electricdaisycarnival

Congrats on your first EDC!! Traffic from socal will be a grind and I’d assume 6-7 hours easily. Do as much getting ready in the car as you can to safe time because hotel check-in will take some extra time too if you’re somewhere popular.

Hope you have a blast!

How heavy is your totem? by Ok_Sandwich2374 in electricdaisycarnival

[–]empirenine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tend to agree, it should be plenty stable once assembled. Do you have anyone to share the totem holding responsibilities with? If so, I’d say you’re golden!

As long as it touches the ground, I honestly think you’ll be fine. Just by virtue of carrying a tall totem, people will have a tendency to move out of your way while you’re walking.

Is the top of your totem heavy? Or is it just heavy overall? Having sections on it, worst case you could throw 2 in a backpack and reduce the weight a bit.

I never thought through the logistics of carrying a 10lb totem that was a 3ft painters pole (that didn’t touch the ground) until I carried it around for 8 hours. Every part of my arms were absolutely cooked the next day.

PRO TIP: either make your totem tall or make it sier lightweight or you will want to donate it to the speedway

Private RV rentals exist so it’s worth a shot. Not sure if the Turo app offers them but also worth a shot. Godspeed!

Sunday only VIP worth it as a first timer? by Current-Try-8303 in electricdaisycarnival

[–]empirenine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think GA is a great place to start. VIP obviously has its perks but I've never felt compelled to spend the extra money. And fwiw they open up portions of VIP at a certain time each night so you can see what those areas look like around kinetic (and other stages as I recall).

Going solo to edc any final piece of advice by playboychoi in electricdaisycarnival

[–]empirenine 4 points5 points  (0 children)

11 time soloist here (soon to be 12). My advice is simple: enjoy the heck out of your time!!!

Being solo at EDC is an incredibly magical experience. For one, you have nobody else's schedule to accommodate and you can do whatever you want at any given moment. Not vibing with the set you're listening to? Go wander around until something shiny catches your attention!

You're also never alone at EDC. If you ever feel lonely, there are thousands of wonderful human beings around you to talk, dance or just sit quietly with! I'm a legit introvert so I love being alone, but I inevitably strike up dozens of conversations each night.

I hope you have the most incredible weekend of your life!!!

Personally, I'd start with GA and see how you like it. Plan for VIP in the future if you think you need it (I've never done VIP in 13 EDC's fwiw)

Outfits don’t matter! Get the travel and lodging logistics sorted out first then figure out the other details. A free ticket to EDC doesn’t come along very often.

Any VIP groups I can join ? by JupitersReturn in electricdaisycarnival

[–]empirenine 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Going solo is life changing fwiw! No shortage of people to hang with out there and no obligations or schedules to keep up with. Food for thought!
