A look through my lens at how Music Festivals have changed the lives of many, including my own. Festival goers believe in the lifestyle concept of PLUR (Peace, Love, Unity, Respect). With that in mind we, as a community, need to emphasize PLUR in our everyday lives. To show that through this common ground, Music, each and every person can be embraced. That every person is free to express themselves without judgement and with freedom to do so.

Beyond Wonderland-Bay Area September 26 & 27
The build up for this Rave was almost a month and it felt like forever. There were so many artists I just had to see. The big names I wanted to see were Carnage, Markus Schulz, Calvin Harris, and Tiesto. I had a blast from the very start. Getting into the venue was fairly simple on day 1 not too much of a line at all. Once I got in and met up with some of my #ravefam I was able to finally get to dancing and enjoying everything beyond had to offer. The first day was fun enjoying good company and meeting up with people I had made Kandi (rave beads for). Beyond Wonderland was fun and inviting I got too meet new people and created new friends and extended my #ravefam even more.

The vibes given off by people at this event were much more welcoming and fun. People are more accepting, friendly, and fun. I noticed this quite a bit as I began going to more and more events. It is a great thing to meet new people and find common ground with them too. Networking and connecting on social media is a big part of this. Creating a bigger friend base where I am able to connect with others who enjoy the same things I do is all part of PLUR. This whole concept has had a positive affect on me that has changed my outlook on things. There are so many people who are quick to judge the whole music festival/rave scene based on the what they see in the news. But it is those people who are not responsible that cause the big news headlines.
