I can't stand Skrillex. I like dub step, and I would have much rather seen Pretty Lights or Bassnectar. That being said I'm going with a bunch of my other friends the same age as me (Seniors in High School) so assuming no schedule conflicts I will be there. That and I did actually see him last October and his live show was so fucking intense. Slight face melting was present l assure you and I would love to see him again live. The experience of his live show is what makes this artist redeemable in my eyes. Such a good time.
I see the Which thing happening, too. It just makes sense with his placement in the lineup. That said, I plan on checking out his set, at least for a bit. I'm not going to hate on him until I give him a chance in a live setting.
THANK YOU!
This post makes my heart warm! Wish there were more of you lol.
(ftr, I did give him a chance live. Checked out a bit at Ultra last year. Carry on though...)

I've only ever heard that sprites song but hearing that he's gonna be there I've started listening to some stuff and it's pretty dang awesome. I doubt he'll be on a stage, more likely a tent like Deadmau5 and Tiesto. It'll be a party no matter what.

I don't know, I think Skrillex today is bigger than Deadmau5 in 10' or Tiesto in 08'. If they put him in a tent, it would probably be the most packed out tent ever. He'll probably get LN Which.
I don't understand how "phans" can use the excuse that you have to see phish live to really appreciate them, and then will rip skrillex. I understand that when just listening to the songs the music can be kinda cheesy, but I have a feeling this show will be the most fun in the 3 years i have been at roo!
Yea he won 3 Grammys on Sunday. I believe Deadmau5 picked one up last year I could be wrong, but he didnt get any this year cause Skrillex was in all his categories and scooped them lol. Thats why he wore Skrillex's phone number on his shirt, to get back at him.
And no, there has never been an EDM act on a Stage for LN.

It's radically different because the music and environment of a Phish or other jamband show is enhanced and unique. With electronic acts like Skrillex, it is only the environment that is enhanced, the music is relatively the same. That being said, the environment at a Dubstep show is all kinds of fun. Of course this is coming from the kind of person who would rather drink and be friends with a frat boy than anything else.
