ok, wrap-up comments… just don't have time to do another full-day review.

vegoose had a safe line-up, nothing edgy and doubtful you'd discover anything new. being in las vegas was both a plus and a minus, in my books. plus: more to do, destination festival, small. minus: distraction from the music, not the center of the trip, doesn't feel as "special" to be at a festival. in terms of cost, vegoose offers a lot of options since there are so many hotels and flgihts there, with some planning it could be done on the cheap(er). obviously, vegas has plenty of ways of ensuring that vegoose is the most expensive vacation you take that year… of all the festies i went to this year, vegoose was the smallest both in terms of size (very short walk from one end to the other) and attendence (a third the size of coachella or lolla, if that). best sound of the festivals.

so, for me, what it worth it? absolutely. winning factors: the line-up (daft punk + rage was unbeatable), the two-in-one festival+vegas aspect, and the cool people i met. will i be there next year? can't guarantee it the way i'm sure i'll be at coachella. will depend on the line-up and who else i might be going with.
