Have you ever been to EDC? Honest question. I don't even know how you can compare the two events, but since you're so hellbent on doing so -
You really think EDC costs $200 or whatever (it's actually around $350ish but who's counting)? Flight? Hotel (even the shithole Flamingo is booking rooms at $500/night that weekend)? Transportation ($50 cab ride there and good luck getting a cab back after the event - I paid close to $100 to hop in a limo after last year's event). Food? Drinks? After all's said and done, you're talking about a couple thousand EASY. My whole trip last year was comp'd (flight, hotel, VIP passes.. everything) and I still managed to spend well over $1,000.
Another thing about EDC - yes there's like 1,000 DJ's performing but are you gonna see every single one? Not even close. I think last year we just stuck around at the Kinetic Field and saw Benassi, Guetta, and Above and Beyond. Before we knew it, the sun was coming up and the show was over.
Honestly speaking, shows like EDC are sensory overload. Yes, they are a blast, but when there's so much to do at 1 venue, unless you focus on only doing a couple of things you're going to be spreading yourself pretty thin and it's hard to really get into the show when you're running around like madman.
Anyway, my 2 cents. Just drop the 2 bills on Tiesto, go, have the time of your life, and not worry about it. After all, it's just money and I'm sure you spend your cash on stupider stuff.
