Perry Farrell to create EDM Musical in Vegas
Taking inspiration from musical legends like ABBA, Michael Jackson, The Beatles and Queen, Perry Farrell has decided it's time to bring EDM to the live stage via a Vegas musical. Bizarre as it may sound, Farrell wants to push EDM's dominance in mainstream culture by creating a musical with "a house sensibility" explaining that "if Giorgio Moroder had written a musical, it would sound like this."
Pasquale Rotella, Gary Richards, Perry Farrell talk festivals at EDMBiz Day 2
The final panel of EDMBiz Day 2 this year was owned by the festivals. With some of the world's largest festival promoters lined up on the conference's stage together, it was a bit of a rare opportunity to hear these mastermind planners speak on some of the top issues and topics of the hour -- anything from "boutique festivals" to radius clauses to sponsorships.
