Electric Forest: Pretty Lights Secret Set

Derek 1
Derek Smith (aka Pretty Lights)

This afternoon Pretty Lights played a secret set with Break Science in Sherwood Forest. The set was announced through social media, as only people with the Electric Forest iPhone app were informed through a Push alert. Me – being obsessed with Pretty Lights – immediately freaked out when got that alert. I was already in Sherwood Forest listening to That 1 Guy when I found out, and luckily there was only a half an hour in between.

What songs did Derek Smith play? Two of my ABSOLUTE favorite songs, The Time Has Come and At Last I Am Free. With my press pass I went backstage, met with his PR team and got some great shots. Take a look below!

Electric Forest – Saturday

Me Maryhelen
Me Caitlin
Yesterday was an amazing day filled with tons of friends, laughter, and dancing. I continued my weekend ragefest with Maryhelen and her friend Stro, but also ran into a group of great friends from college. Caitlin and her friends Krishna and Brittany jumped up to say hi while I was walking through the crowd, and it was delightful to see some unexpected familiar faces! Below are just a few photos from yesterday. I don’t have time right now to upload all the pics I took, so the remainder will go up tomorrow.
Pretty Lights and EOTO tonight – can’t wait!
*No whining about my pigtails – it’s the only way to keep my hair under control in the festival environment!

Below are are some photos and a video I took of Electric Forest at night. It would be an understatement to say that the woods here are a magical universe of color, light, and music.

After watching String Cheese Incident play two sets, Maryhelen and I walked through Sherwood Forest to see Galactic. These photos were taken during that journey. I also have a video of the journey itself, but at 750 MB it will take much too long to upload here on the spotty wi-fi.
