Festival stirs noise related rumble, EDM banned from iconic Charleston venue

In another u-turn for dance music and its reign over popular American culture, Patriots Point has banned all EDM shows after excessive noise complaints were received during Harbor City Fest on Thursday. At a time when the genre has continued to make loud noise across the nation, Alesso’s headline efforts to a 3,100 strong-crowd were evidently too much for the South Carolina naval base, leading to the decision by the venues executive director Mac Burdette to ban all similar events from the venue.
