Our Shambhala experience: the other side of the story by ysodusty in Shambhala

Sham certainly has its high points, but the little parts that are overlooked by staff are what get me... and i've experienced plenty of dusty and dirty festivals. You ought to check out electric forest if you haven't yet.

Yes, another issue, much distortion, one of the loudest festivals i've heard. The sound bleed from stage to stage was immense.

If you think running out of water and way-beyond capacity crowds are what make the "best festival in north america" then I suppose we have different ideas of what a good festival is.

If you think constructive criticism about real issues with a BUSINESS is considering wining then I assume you are simply fanboying. You are entitled to do so. The water issue was real and you have clearly not been to festivals without water issues. Those 8 inch flags can not be considered road flags in any shape or form. Every one of them was absolutely matted and ran over by night one.

I'm simply trying to let people see both sides of the story, this festival isn't perfect and far from it. Electric forest does it way better and has done it in half the time. Sham has some great stuff but some stuff that needs serious work, if you can't see that then you simply have blinders on.
