This upcoming year is a big one, 2012 is primed to be a year of massive parties and wild times, and of course we’ve got to kick it off in style. For the fifth year in a row, the biggest way to kick off the year and kick out the jams is the entire week of BPM Festival, Dec. 30 –...

Let’s face it, y’all. The temperature is changing, August is gone and the leaves only have a few more days. We had a great 2011 festival season. We hit the beaches of Alabama for Hangout, the fields of Tennessee for Bonnaroo, raved in the rain for EDC Orlando, and braved the city...

Taken a walk outside recently? If you’re like me, the answer is probably no. It’s fucking hot outside. But if there’s any good reason to leave the house this summer and brave the sweltering heat, it’s the festivals.  My most recent outing was a road trip into the heart of Tennessee...

The festivals just keep on coming, and we keep hauling our asses to all the places good times roll. Of course, no exception was made in the way of Florida’s first-ever Electric Daisy Carnival in Orlando. Turns out the home of Mickey Mouse knows how to get down and wastey-faced. Booyah...

It’s not often people drive hours to Alabama with aims of achieveing new heights in cultural and artistic experiences (Okay, maybe that’s ignorant, but in my defense, they didn’t have gutters). Of course, that’s exactly what I did this past weekend as I took in the...

Death From Above 1979? We will see you...

Finally, y’all wanna know about the epic shit? (To see more pics, go here) It was two days of musical genius at Randall’s Island Park, nestled inbetween east Harlem and west Queens. More than 50,000 people hopped the bus over to party their asses off. Nobody seemed to give a fuck...

Holy cock waffles! Shit is just popping off here at Wet Paint this week. We are so busy at the moment.  Currently we are gearing up for the epicness that will be this weekend: Labor Lazer Day. We will somehow manage to cover two festivals at once, Electric Zoo and Big and Hearty, as well...

The summer festival season is our favorite time of year, and while there are plenty of awesome shows to go to, we’re especially stoked for Labor Day weekend. This holiday, our staff will be stretched across the country to bring you pan-American festival coverage. Not only will we be...

Whenever I meet people from Tennessee, I ask them if they’ve been to Grundy County. They all tell me they’ve never heard of the place. I first heard of Grundy last Spring, when Joel told me he was playing a nascent festival in the middle of the mountains, somewhere Northwest of...

At times, I’ve claimed electro is the modern conception of punk rock, and LA Riots go right along with my little social theory. This is dance music you pogo to. I met the duo, Jon and Daniel, at the Beatport Beach Party at WMC. These dudes have got the attitude to be rock stars for...
