Adventures in Shpongleland: The 4/20 Masquerade

420. Arguably the biggest unofficial holiday of the year. I've always loved it for the obvious reason, and because it happens to fall less than a week before the second biggest unofficial holiday of the year: my birthday. This year, I was lucky enough to celebrate the Ganja goddess and my 23rd turn around the sun with my absolute favorite music in the whole wide world- more...

Lost in Miami – Ultra Music Festival 2012

Ultra Music Festival is almost as indescribable as it is surreal. 150K freaks occupied a small waterfront corner in the great city of Miami two weeks ago. Three days of nonstop music and debauchery had the city on its knees in utter disbelief. Not only did the festival grounds span about six city blocks and four avenues, but its enormity spilled out of the park and took more...
