I don't think you can expect much from Ezoo lately with the direction that have been heading lately.
They will probably have enough names 2 fill two smaller main stage. It makes sense since Main Stage had lots of room and I never saw it fill entirely myself (at least for the first 2 year)

Got the email as well.
So instead of using the money to book talent they decide to grow bigger despite the fact that they couldn't even sell out last year even with the event being all ages and shit.

Don't forget the fact that Insomiac has many of the talent under a contract. I don't like it but it's part of the music industry that prevents dj's from playing wherever they want (for the right price of course)
But this doesn't mean they can't book quality people. There are many good names out there yet to be booked along with many locals that play great music BUT it doesnt sell $300 tickets. They need the commercial dj's to keep in business since they completely forgot about bringing quality names last year.
All ages? Another excuse for teenager for pop a molly for the first time.
Electric Zoo was great before it turned out to be a 3 day festival. I'm glad to be part of it for the first 2 years.

I was under the impression that it was just a one time deal, which took Made Event by surprise and that's why they couldn't get more "better" DJs. Even commercially last years line up was a lackluster. Basically EDC stole the show last year. Seeing now that they're going bigger tells me that they want quantity rather then quality (I know, I'm captain obvious here). But I also don't want to judge too soon, but since this is ME, I'm pretty sure they will fuck Ezoo up one way or another. I guess I judged already, haha.

I have a feeling Made thought this was too easy and no one wanted piece of the action. I didn't think they had an idea that Insomiac would come in and throw a successful EDC event here at NYC.
I went to EDC last year and it had a huge young crowd. But it also had a stage which had an amazing lineup the entire weekend (not just one day like last year electric zoo)

Oh good, two main stages. That means if you get tired of watching Skrillex on one stage, you can head over to the other main stage to see Guetta!

Ezoo has kind of gone off the deep end IMO, and it's unfortunate because it was once a great party.
The amount of 12 year olds is something I've never seen before, to the point it feels like the Chucky Cheese of dance music festivals. It's kind of embarrassing tbh.

They def needed to expand the space. Last 2 years it's been beyond packed. Two mainstages is interesting. Probably a strategy in order to win DJ bookings against EDC. Two smaller mainstages sounds about right. They really need to step up the tents and production. Sunday school needs to be on Ultra's Carl Cox arena level and it's not even close now. The all ages thing is another problem.
