It's 2015. Unlike back in our parents' day where lighters were held up to show appreciation to musical eargasms, concerts and shows are filled with iPhones galore, people don't take pictures and pride themselves on how interesting their Snapchat story is, and they all have to keep up with the Jones's. Music festivals bring quite the mixture of characters and since we are the online generation, what better way to compare people to our favorite social media sites?

1. Twitter: The Hyperactive Kandi Kid

Dawned with Kandi up and down their arms, fluffies, binkies and tutus, they have to let you know what they are doing every second of the festival. They can't stay in one spot. They're trading Kandi with everyone in the crowd BUT they always have a plan and will ALWAYS keep you updated. They set the meeting spots and the times. Thank you, Twitter Kandi Kids, for always being on top of your shit.

2. Tumblr: The "F*** The Mainstream" Ravers

Tumblr. Full of hipsters and emos hating on mainstream anything. They try to act like they're too good for this mainstream bullshit, but deep inside, you know they love some of it. "Ugh, you haven't heard of *insert obscure acid house producer name*? Wow, you need to broaden your music selections," the Tumblr Raver says, as he/ she gets weird to the desert rave music at the tiny stages. Techno has their hearts. Guys are seen wearing dark skinny jeans, a long dark tank and backwards snapback. Girls are seen wearing some trippy long t-shirt, the Miley Cyrus buns, choker necklaces and platform boots. "Do you even know how to spell Gesaffelstein?" Even though they may be a pain in the rear end, you can count on them for always showing you new tunes.

3. Instagram: The Fashionista

Psh. They don't care about the music! Did you even go to Coachella if you didn't take a picture in your chic boho outfit? They always take pictures (of themselves) tagging ONLY the most famous celebrities, hoping to get a shout out. It's all about those pre planned outfits... and maybe the music. We can always count on the Insta raver for giving us some bomb ass outfit ideas... (guilty).

4. The Snapchat Raver

The Snapchat Raver can be two different things. We have the VIP Snappers: Only the most prominent of the people at festivals and shows. They take ten second videos of girls twerking on the VIP table with a bottle of Grey Goose in the background (just to show you that they really are VIP). Every week they're at a different club, swinging back sparkling bottles of Patron and Vodka, because hey, they can and they want you to know about it. The non VIP Snapper: Squatting at the mainstage and video taping every second of every set. Actually, the VIP and Non-VIP Snappers are quite similar... They show off as much as they possibly can, with story lengths ranging anywhere between 200-500 seconds. Whenever you have FOMO, turn to the Snapchat ravers and live vicariously through them.

5. Linkedin: The Snotty Bloggers

"Oh what blog do you write for?" The Snotty Bloggers move their way to the tops of the festival totems. They are usually seen wearing black skinny jeans and black tops with only ONE piece of kandi on their arm filled with all the old festival media bracelets. They pretty much know all the bouncers and workers at the clubs. They are always trying to network. You can see them wearing media bands and nice cameras around their necks. They obviously know every DJ on the planet (even calling them by their real names) and are usually backstage, Snapchatting the whole time. Their Instas are filled with pictures of famous DJ's and Producers with the oh so cool caption: "Just chillin' with so and so". Keep your snotty blogger friends close... They'll always have a plus 1.

6. Facebook: The Outspoken Raver

The Facebook Raver knows quite a lot of people (not closely, of course). They seem to have a shit ton of friends and they are outspoken about every thing. A scandal in the EDM world?! The Facebook Raver is the first one to know and post about it. They are your go to for circulating interesting EDM articles and posts... You'll probably read this one from the Facbook Raver himself. They organize your next festi fam get together in great organizational fashion.

7. Reddit: The Chill Raver

The Reddit Raver always has the DL info about all major (and small) festivals and shows. The Reddit Raver usually has some awesome snarky comments and hilarious one-liners about DJ's and how they play at shows. You will always find the best meme's from our Reddit Raver. They have everlasting knowledge about EVERYTHING festival wise. First time camping? Here's what to pack. They can usually be seen chatting off someone's ear about Sacred Geometry, vibes and energies. If you forgot something for camping out, the Reddit Raver is overly prepared with anything you may need. Grills, pop up showers, hair dryers, a kitchen table, solar panel chargers... The list goes on. You can see them flowing with poi and hoops. The Reddit Raver is my favorite raver (though I may be a bit biased).
