There are so many reasons there are rules such as these. legality, for one. There arent real raves much anymore, if it is advertised, its attempting to be legal. Electric Zoo is LEGAL. A festival, not a rave. Electric daisy Carnival and other insomniac parties are festivals, not raves as well. Look at their websites. SAME RULES you are complaining about. Np backpacks, glowsticks, food, etc... Those rules are completely normal and justified. And I am so sorry that you think that 80% of people would be rolling...I enjoy the music and save drugs for my home, where it is safe. I live in AZ and party in cali regularly. I have been to EDC 3 years in a row, and it is NOT a rave. How old are you anyway? Did you even think anything you said through before typing it.
It's EZOO for the win. Because of the music, not the drugs.
pwned..
