So this past weekend they had TomorrowWorld, which is now the US version of Belgium's Tomorrowland. Personally this is not an event I would ever waste my money on b/c I'm not fond of any of the DJs they normally book for this event, with the exception of the Q-Dance stage and the gabber hardcore djs (if any).
But 140,000 people attended, so they're calling it a success. That's actually a really good number considering the size of the event and the 21+ because of two kids dying at an EDM festival before this one.

Also I know this is a bit late, but I was trying to find some proof of it somewhere but couldn't find a screen capture. Apparently Frontliner, a hardstyle dj/producer, had someone pull a gun to his face.
Here is what he posted on Facebook:
Great! Just had two people in a car next to me pull out a gun and point it at me. Bye America, thanks for a great weekend. I'm happy to not going here ever again.
He eventually deleted it, I think because some people were mad that he totally wrote off the US because of this incident (which I honestly cannot blame him at all). He posted that on Sunday I believe. Funny thing is, because Noisecontrollers couldn't make it, he rescheduled his flight so he can replace them the final night of the event lol.

Agreed. Glad QDance is doing their own event this Saturday in LA.
And that is just awful. Did he mention where it happened? Been living in LA all my life and I've fortunately never experienced anything like that; mostly due to the fact that I know what areas to avoid.

I'm sure it was somewhere in Atlanta. Doubt that would happen on the grounds of the event.
