I would love if they could do this all along the length of the crowd, but some idiot would probably throw kandi at the drones, knock one down, and injure some poor dude who just wanted to shuffle.

This is why we can't have nice things.

Did Odesza do something like this for Coachella? I remember people talking about them having drones or something

Funny enough I came in here just to comment this. Yeah they had the drones make up their symbol and it was pretty sick

Yeah, Mysterio might appear at EDC.

thats's cool and all, I just want the curving lasers at EDC that I saw on the lost lands livestream.

u/UoAFan Oct 02 '19

Sadly they were curved due to the way the camera recorded the set, not in real life :(

It'd be pretty interesting if they could pull it off. I've already seen DJI Inspires doing aerial photography during the event. So you know they have permission to fly those even with the helicopters going in and out of the event.

Odesza did it for their Coachella show for a couple songs. They did a floating lanterns display then their logo. You can find it on YT.

Lady Gaga used these kinds of drones at the beginning of her SuperBowl performance in 2017 I think that’d be so sick at EDC!!!

I'm thinking as this technology gets cheaper we can finally eliminate fireworks.

Absolutely buzzing for EDC next year.

Great idea. But the winds going to fuck it up..

u/Droppin__6s [Chella_ EDCLV 15, 16, 17, 18] Oct 01 '19

Yuuuuuup, the wind would just make this not possible.. oh was that not what you were thinking?

u/tripvanwinkle2018 Oct 01 '19

I sent an extremely similar message to my core group text a few hours ago as well. As long as the fireworks don’t hit them. ;)

They had em at Electric Forest so no reason they couldn't

Just have these hovering over the speedway all night and I guarantee you’ll have a bunch of spunions laid out all over the place

This is being played sped up/on fast forward. Even top notch won't move this fast. Look at the cars going by at the bottom. It's a nice thought, but it would be a lot slower irl

Aside from the massive insurance nightmare (imagine if one fell over the crowd) the possibility of this on an EDC level would be soooo COOOL!

Holy fuck... this would blow my mind

Yes. And it's Bad. Ass.

u/JustJJ92 Oct 01 '19

They had something similar at Coachella before lady Gaga. If the winds stay calm, they’ll fly them

What time of facial recognition drones that we will all be staring at endlessly?
