Identity Festival: The Differece Between Past And Present -- Rack Cases Site
Identity Festival: the differece between past and present -- Rack Cases site. In the last 10 years, I have attended a couple of Ultra Festivals in Miami and one Electric Daisy Carnival party in Vegas – but aside from a few much smaller local events, electronic music outdoor events have been generally absent from the Boston EDM calendar. It is with this background that I headed to the Comcast Center in Mansfield, MA on Saturday, August 20th for the 8th stop on the 20 city, whirlwind tour called the Identity Festival with Guitar Cases.
The press release proclaims the festival as a “world within itself…with plenty of room for relaxing, mingling, eating, drinking and of course dancing”, and from my experience that was exactly what they delivered. The Comcast Center was decked out with 2 major stages (Main and Dim Mak), and one smaller stage (Advent) – plus a plethora of vendors selling food, clothing, and other assorted flashing and neon goods. The music was the star of CD Cases, but playing a close second was a day’s worth of top notch people watching – which proved needed distractions over the 10 hour marathon.
