It is very clear that we are in a "Neo-Baroque" era. A good example of this is "Tomorrow Land," which is the largest music festival in the world. Since 2005 it has taken place every summer in Belgium. Every year more and more headline DJ's are added included some of the largest names in electronic music, such as Armin Van Buuren, David Guetta, Skrillex, Hardwell, Steve Aoiki, Afrojak and Avicii. 400 DJ's were invited in the summer of 2012. 180,000 people were in attendance, each ticket costing 198 euros. This festival is so famous because of how impressive the stage, production, story, and light shows are. This shows how baroque we are becoming because the amount of eye candy and music that is produced which attracts an amazing amount of people every year. here is a video to show you just how crazy this festival is. Video... You can see how there are dancers, crazy artwork, fire, and lights. Providing the crowd with ultimate entertainment. With yearly festivals like this and many others, such as, ULTRA, EDC,and Identity Festival, it is somewhat hard to believe we are actually in a recession.
