Our group was very fortunate and had a great experience. I absolutely feel for everyone that did not and the criticism is valid. We arrived as venders and they dropped the ball and did not have camping for us. An hour later they allowed us to camp directly behind the vender village between Eclipse and Lone Star. We never had to deal with massive walks, getting lost, or lack of water, but that was by pure luck.

Watching this video makes me glad I didn't participate in this event. I was offered a chance to work it. I knew in my heart it was going to go bad. I worked at the Oregon Eclipse and it went well and I only experienced a few negative things that entire week. When I arrived, I learned that I was going to be working in close quarters with my ex girlfriend and that she was going to be my Boss. Then I found out that she was dating the guy who's land the festival was on. Lastly, on the day of the eclipse there were some neo Nazis who were shouting all kinds of racist remarks through bullhorns and holding up signs telling certain people that they were unwelcome. That is rare at a festival on the west coast. Other than that, the 2017 eclipse festival was super chill and fun. I saw one bad freak out but that will happen when drugs are around. People do die when you have large gatherings. It's not always the fault of the organizers or staff or anyone. I've worked at dozens of festivals for over 25 years. The largest ones. I would say that 1 out of every 5 events are a home run, where everything goes well. The majority of events are challenging due to outside forces, acts of god, bad luck with the weather, law enforcement or bad actors behaving badly. Then every so often, there is an event that is a shit show. Generally, it starts with the location and then bad planning and insufficient resources to maintain the needs of thousands of campers. If you don't have the right location. Your festival is going to fail. 100% The best festivals are not the biggest, loudest, and most well known. The best festivals are the ones that are smaller. They're at a place you've never heard of like an old summer camp in the hills. There aren't any fences or gates or security or medical tents. You're on your own. There are a few Doctors and Nurses and EMTs attending. There are some people selling food and drinks. There are places to get free water and yes, there are Port o potties that get serviced at least once we day. The stages are simple and the artwork is beautiful. There is a quiet area and another area where the music never stops. People do their thing and don't get sloppy wasted and when someone needs to help, they get it. If someone starts trouble, they are corrected. You pick up after yourselves so you can return the same location the following year. The cops come by on Friday just to let everyone know they're around. They come back on Saturday and walk around and see that things are running smoothly. No arrests are made the entire weekend. No od's. No fights. All goes well. What a great Festival. The best. It happens. It isn't about money. It's about the people and music and the art. I challenge anyone reading this to create the next new festival. Someone's gonna do it. Why not you? I'm retired from the scene or I'd do it myself. You can throw a really nice festival for $20,000 if you know what your doing. Plan at least a year in advance. Find a location that makes sense. Have a backup plan. Stay on budget. Be transparent. Be realistic. Expect to break even. Enjoy the process. It's fun. Anyone can throw a complete shit show, including death and destruction and legal action, like Texas Eclipse for around a million bucks. If 10,000 people pay to come, you broke even. Do the math. You guys got ripped off. So do something about it or it will happen again. Follow the money.😮

Performances were amazing; lineup was amazing.. so amazing it created dangerous crowd surges that the organizers didn’t effectively plan or prepare for.

Despite this being the poorest managed festival I have ever been to...I had a great time. We had Thursday early arrival. They parked us in over Yonder. A few hours after being there one of our neighbors told us that they had already ran out of space and had to rent extra space in the over yonder area. The over Yonder area wasn't even on the map. My joke to my neighbors was that I was about to wonder beyond yonder. It was a 25-35 min walk to the venue depending on which way you went. Some of the paths you needed a flashlight to navigate. They were still building stages on Friday. I took a picture of one of the bridges on Saturday. They hadn't finished pouring all the concrete and there were some sections of rebar still showing. Things were just indicating that there was a lack of preparedness. I only saw one medical station in the entire event, behind the Lone Star stage. So, I wasn't really surprised when they called it off Monday morning. I already was assuming that it wasn't the weather that cancelled the event.

There was a 53 ft trailer by the reservoir that was filtering water. They were not just pulling water straight out of the reservoir. I went swimming Friday (I hope i didn't get any brain eating amoebas, lol). I talked to one of the guys cleaning the water. They sounded swamped already on Friday. However, I had no problem finding working water stations through out the week. A rumor I had heard from others at the reservoir was that the land owner on the other side of the reservoir was standing on his property with a shotgun in is hands threatening to shoot any swimmers that went on his side of the reservoir.

It was announced Monday morning that the festival was canceled and everyone needed to break camp and leave before the eclipse because of impending storm impact. There was no storm but the announcement caused a massive traffic jam for hours that created a public safety and fire hazard so the festival was canceled by the county Monday morning after the flyover. Once the flyover happened them multiple other exits were opened and the cars magically began to flow. Bottom line this was a staged crisis to get the event shut down by the county fo Disco Donnie can collect on insurance money. The festival community has been used for a giant cash grab event and insurance fraud scam. Disco Donnie is a crook who should be prosecuted and locked up.

Everyone seems to forget that Oregon Eclipse was a total shitshow in different ways, and the revisionist history doesn't help address legitimate Texas-specific issues. OE was not "organized in like 2 months on a whim", it was announced 2 *YEARS* prior at Symbiosis 2015 (as in printed on the festival booklet we got on arrival), planning likely began well before that, and it still had a long list of logistical disasters - I didn't get a printed map/schedule until day 3, and never got eclipse glasses at all, despite claims they'd be readily handed out on entry - and that's a minor inconvenience compared to other examples. That said, we had incredible experiences overall at both Oregon + Texas and I certainly don't mean to dismiss the very real issues I saw or any other attendees' valid criticisms of how it all went down...just my own bit of perspective on what's really the fault of organizer incompetence/malice vs what's due to the fact that it's extremely difficult for ANYONE to create huge one-off festivals for the first time in new and rural locations.

I actually had the time of my life. I thought of course the organizers could have done better, they always can, and I was really bummed that it closed Monday. I was also bummed that I got there Friday morning and was camped Way Down Yonder which was over an hour walk from the staging area and the dust was horrific and on Friday no one knew how to get to the stages as there were no signs, but the music and sound system and overalll everything was great and I'd do it again next year if I could. It was an 11 hour drive for me from Santa Fe NM but soooooo worth it. Things weren't perfect of course and never is. It's also reffing insane that Texas outlaws testing strips as fentanyl kills but that's the state not the organizers.

With the rain and hail on the forecast for starting at 4am on Tuesday morning they did the right thing in my opinion. Offered people to break down their camp site and then watch the eclipse and recommended to go home. They did not force anyone out. We enjoyed the eclipse from the sky stage where there was meditation and then we went to camp and grilled out until 9pm when it only took us 18 minutes to exit the venue. We live in Austin and had a close eye on our weather apps and agreed that we were happy that we did not stay overnight. Tuesday morning did have rain, there was hail and we did have tornado warnings. With that said, this venue has improvised roads up and down the hill country made of clay dirt. Any bit of rain and people would have been grid locked and stuck inside and a lot worse off.. Happy that they looked out for our well-being and safety by suggesting we leave and calling it off.

I think where they really fucked up was by not building infrastructure to support bad weather, this would include having a few circus tents strategically placed around the fest for people to get out of hailstorms and having a BIG evacuation route to quickly evacuate people in the event of a tornado advisory.

I am too.. it makes me better at multitasking… did you know NASA hires adhd people because of their better ability to multitask?..

Our group was very fortunate and had a great experience. I absolutely feel for everyone that did not and the criticism is valid. We arrived as venders and they dropped the ball and did not have camping for us. An hour later they allowed us to camp directly behind the vender village between Eclipse and Lone Star. We never had to deal with massive walks, getting lost, or lack of water, but that was by pure luck.
Musta been nice lol I was an ADA attendee and the conditions felt like such a massive rip off for how they advertised it as Glamping etc
Hey I’m planning on infiltrating this bunker as well. Any advice on how to get in and where the entrance is?
I think I found it😈
Wait how come the entrance to the bunker is different then the one you found. I went in and it was a complete different bunker. It didn’t have blue walls and it was wayyy bigger. You could drive a semi through it.
Watching this video makes me glad I didn't participate in this event. I was offered a chance to work it. I knew in my heart it was going to go bad. I worked at the Oregon Eclipse and it went well and I only experienced a few negative things that entire week. When I arrived, I learned that I was going to be working in close quarters with my ex girlfriend and that she was going to be my Boss. Then I found out that she was dating the guy who's land the festival was on. Lastly, on the day of the eclipse there were some neo Nazis who were shouting all kinds of racist remarks through bullhorns and holding up signs telling certain people that they were unwelcome. That is rare at a festival on the west coast. Other than that, the 2017 eclipse festival was super chill and fun. I saw one bad freak out but that will happen when drugs are around. People do die when you have large gatherings. It's not always the fault of the organizers or staff or anyone. I've worked at dozens of festivals for over 25 years. The largest ones. I would say that 1 out of every 5 events are a home run, where everything goes well. The majority of events are challenging due to outside forces, acts of god, bad luck with the weather, law enforcement or bad actors behaving badly. Then every so often, there is an event that is a shit show. Generally, it starts with the location and then bad planning and insufficient resources to maintain the needs of thousands of campers. If you don't have the right location. Your festival is going to fail. 100% The best festivals are not the biggest, loudest, and most well known. The best festivals are the ones that are smaller. They're at a place you've never heard of like an old summer camp in the hills. There aren't any fences or gates or security or medical tents. You're on your own. There are a few Doctors and Nurses and EMTs attending. There are some people selling food and drinks. There are places to get free water and yes, there are Port o potties that get serviced at least once we day. The stages are simple and the artwork is beautiful. There is a quiet area and another area where the music never stops. People do their thing and don't get sloppy wasted and when someone needs to help, they get it. If someone starts trouble, they are corrected. You pick up after yourselves so you can return the same location the following year. The cops come by on Friday just to let everyone know they're around. They come back on Saturday and walk around and see that things are running smoothly. No arrests are made the entire weekend. No od's. No fights. All goes well. What a great Festival. The best. It happens. It isn't about money. It's about the people and music and the art. I challenge anyone reading this to create the next new festival. Someone's gonna do it. Why not you? I'm retired from the scene or I'd do it myself. You can throw a really nice festival for $20,000 if you know what your doing. Plan at least a year in advance. Find a location that makes sense. Have a backup plan. Stay on budget. Be transparent. Be realistic. Expect to break even. Enjoy the process. It's fun. Anyone can throw a complete shit show, including death and destruction and legal action, like Texas Eclipse for around a million bucks. If 10,000 people pay to come, you broke even. Do the math. You guys got ripped off. So do something about it or it will happen again. Follow the money.😮
This comment is LEGENDARY!!! I’m pinning this one to the top. I appreciate your insight so much! And also; I have friends building a small heady festival like you’re describing. Would love to get you involved with them if you’re interested. Look up “wooklandia” and shoot me a message on Instagram if you’d like to get involved with them ❤️❤️❤️ Edit my Instagram handle is: vvvlf_wulf 🤙
You have my sub 💯💯💯
I APPRECIATE YOU ❤
Snowflake generation complaining about not feeling safe. How are you gonna survive the collapse of society as we know it?
Oooh no your Asthma! Poor diddums!
So many people had serious asthma issues there. And couldn’t find EMS even if they wanted to. It was bad.
@@VVVLF 🤦
The crazy thing is that the part that mattered the most for our memories but least for our safety, was the show itself which was fucking awesome by every account of people who just stayed in the show all day and night and got there late enough for signs to have been posted lol
Visuals were amazing (minus the satanic shit during level-up.. I usually don’t mind that but HATED it at an eclipse festival) overall the visuals and lasers were great though. Sound was ASS though compared to the PK sound at OE. Sun stage had the only function 1s I saw at TE and it pissed me off big time. Performances were amazing; lineup was amazing.. so amazing it created dangerous crowd surges that the organizers didn’t effectively plan or prepare for. I had a shitload of fun; but it’s a damn miracle something horrible didn’t happen and for that; they deserve to be called out and shamed.
@@VVVLF absolutely agree.
@@VVVLF backwoods festival in arkansas has been super guilty of all of these things every year of it's existence. They blow their wad on artists and production and then completely disregard all of the fundamental infrastructure aspects straight out of the gate. multiple people have died in less than a decade of shows, due to things that were largly directly caused by negligence of the festival in either how they ran things or who they paid to run something. They book crazy lineups in a beautiful place, and make it look REALLY cool. Then they fail their patrons and artists on every other front.
@@thefumexxl perhaps my next exposé will be about them…
@@VVVLF It'd be worth it. This years event has a lineup worth running this kind of experience through. They've never cracked 5k people on a property taht used to hold wakarusa which hit nearly 30k 4 years in a row. They've never broken even on a single one of their events based on ticket price vs the cost of te lineup and production they're employing. They do literally every other aspect on sponsorship money, volunteers, and using the cheapest option absolutely possible. The actual production and music is exquisite. The safety, and smaller quieter things that people don't see if they don't have an issue, are a total shit show.
Despite this being the poorest managed festival I have ever been to...I had a great time. We had Thursday early arrival. They parked us in over Yonder. A few hours after being there one of our neighbors told us that they had already ran out of space and had to rent extra space in the over yonder area. The over Yonder area wasn't even on the map. My joke to my neighbors was that I was about to wonder beyond yonder. It was a 25-35 min walk to the venue depending on which way you went. Some of the paths you needed a flashlight to navigate. They were still building stages on Friday. I took a picture of one of the bridges on Saturday. They hadn't finished pouring all the concrete and there were some sections of rebar still showing. Things were just indicating that there was a lack of preparedness. I only saw one medical station in the entire event, behind the Lone Star stage. So, I wasn't really surprised when they called it off Monday morning. I already was assuming that it wasn't the weather that cancelled the event.
I truly am glad you managed to still have a good time. Regardless of all the shit that went wrong I managed to have a super great time also. What I keep saying in regards to that is: “the good times were our fault; the chaos was their fault.” We as a community are strong and full of love and light. No amount of darkness can dim our shine. ✨ I appreciate your comment; everyone who’s genuinely engaging with me about this… I deeply appreciate. I’m doing my best to expose this and I’m the only person I see actively doing more than just fb shit talking, so every bit of support means a lot to me.
There was a 53 ft trailer by the reservoir that was filtering water. They were not just pulling water straight out of the reservoir. I went swimming Friday (I hope i didn't get any brain eating amoebas, lol). I talked to one of the guys cleaning the water. They sounded swamped already on Friday. However, I had no problem finding working water stations through out the week. A rumor I had heard from others at the reservoir was that the land owner on the other side of the reservoir was standing on his property with a shotgun in is hands threatening to shoot any swimmers that went on his side of the reservoir.
He had an ak 47 and a drone. As for filtering the water, it is unclear if they filtered it for heavy metals or not… That is a whole different filtering process than just filtering it for bacteria.
Quit your crying, dont go if you dont like how they run it. I mean really, what were you expecting; five star luxury accommodations?
That’s exactly what I was expecting for $2500 Glamping packages. Fuck is you talking about? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I agree he needs to quit his bitching
@@GodLovesYou828 can’t tell if you’re talking about me or the other commenter haha
Should contact the insurance company for the event, expose the fraud. Donnie deserves jail not a second payout.
Agreed
The eclipse festival is an insurance money scam!
DISCO DONNIE is guilty of fraud
It was announced Monday morning that the festival was canceled and everyone needed to break camp and leave before the eclipse because of impending storm impact. There was no storm but the announcement caused a massive traffic jam for hours that created a public safety and fire hazard so the festival was canceled by the county Monday morning after the flyover. Once the flyover happened them multiple other exits were opened and the cars magically began to flow. Bottom line this was a staged crisis to get the event shut down by the county fo Disco Donnie can collect on insurance money. The festival community has been used for a giant cash grab event and insurance fraud scam. Disco Donnie is a crook who should be prosecuted and locked up.
PREACH! I’m pinning this comment
@vvvlf can you please share some more definitive information about those same grounds being used as training grounds? If this is a topic you broach in your documentary, will you please consider looking into what the local regulations are that should be protecting us from such exposure? What can attendees do to assess their exposure and heal from it? Maybe a separate video/topic to cover outside the scope of the main documentary. Thank you so much for the doing God’s work in shining the light where things are not being seen you are in my prayers.
I actually have a video about exactly that planned. Another attendee sent me instructions for an immune system cleanse to get all the bad chemicals outta your system etc. I wanna make a video showing what they had to say. Also; tonight I did a in depth analysis about the property being a tactical training facility. I added it to the bottom of my investigation playlist.
Unfortunately most young people don’t know Disco Donnie’s sorted history. Quick google search will reveal much.
Everyone seems to forget that Oregon Eclipse was a total shitshow in different ways, and the revisionist history doesn't help address legitimate Texas-specific issues. OE was not "organized in like 2 months on a whim", it was announced 2 *YEARS* prior at Symbiosis 2015 (as in printed on the festival booklet we got on arrival), planning likely began well before that, and it still had a long list of logistical disasters - I didn't get a printed map/schedule until day 3, and never got eclipse glasses at all, despite claims they'd be readily handed out on entry - and that's a minor inconvenience compared to other examples. That said, we had incredible experiences overall at both Oregon + Texas and I certainly don't mean to dismiss the very real issues I saw or any other attendees' valid criticisms of how it all went down...just my own bit of perspective on what's really the fault of organizer incompetence/malice vs what's due to the fact that it's extremely difficult for ANYONE to create huge one-off festivals for the first time in new and rural locations.
There’s a documentary called “the second wave” that’s literally about how quickly they put it together. I was running off memory in the moment.. maybe it was a couple years and not a couple months.. (still only half the time spent on Texas eclipse) and never in OE did I feel at risk of dying like I did with the crowd surges and lack of medical support etc at Texas eclipse.
Only real problem with Oregon was to many people showed up at the same time and the 2 lane highways in the area became dangerously gridlocked for periods of time from festival and non festival eclipse traffic.
@@JerryK-ob7dl absolutely true and because of that lesson learned I fully expected TE to have its shit way more together.. it was like “okay.. ya had your practice run; next fest is gonna be PERFECT” and somehow they still managed to fuck it up even worse. With sixteen THOUSAND events under his belt; if anyone deserves to be called out over a failed event it’s disco Donnie.
Hey! I was in the group sitting in front of you during the eclipse! Loved hearing you talk about your hero dog! I’m so sorry this was your experience. My group was a bit stressed once we got Over Yonder and saw the state of the terrain but once we got set up we had the best festival experience. It makes me so sad it’s not the same for everyone. I’m really glad you’re putting yourself and the story out there for everyone though. Thanks for that! Also, what was the music you were playing during the eclipse. It wouldn’t load so we didn’t get to finish it. It was like ambient but had a women’s voice talking lol. That’s all I can remember about it. It wouldn’t play entirely so you just restarted it at one point. I found your SoundCloud but there’s SO MANY to go through haha. Anyways, I’ll keep following your channel, take care of yourself ❤
This is insane.... Festivals should not be a shit show like that. Good on you for documenting
Thank you SO MUCH. The amount of hate I’m getting is hard to deal with but I’m trying really hard not to let it get to me.
@@VVVLF forget about the haters. Nothing your doing is wrong
Thank you thank you thank you 🙏 for real.
Yeaaaa I wish they answered the door 😄
I actually had the time of my life. I thought of course the organizers could have done better, they always can, and I was really bummed that it closed Monday. I was also bummed that I got there Friday morning and was camped Way Down Yonder which was over an hour walk from the staging area and the dust was horrific and on Friday no one knew how to get to the stages as there were no signs, but the music and sound system and overalll everything was great and I'd do it again next year if I could. It was an 11 hour drive for me from Santa Fe NM but soooooo worth it. Things weren't perfect of course and never is. It's also reffing insane that Texas outlaws testing strips as fentanyl kills but that's the state not the organizers. I practically lived at the Eclipse and Moon stages dancing until 6 or 7 am every day. My biggest complaint is probably complaining about the complainers, just shut the f up and enjoy the moment :))))
I definitely enjoyed myself while I was there. It was on the trip back when my investigation went into turbo mode that the unsettling feelings and emotions started to seep in. Everything you just said was totally relevant.. except the stages.. they massively cheaped out on the stages. The OE eclipse stage was way better and I felt really ripped off at the Texas eclipse (as did many others)
I agree completely, Monday was perfect weather. A major festival has NEVER been canceled because of forecasted weather expected AFTER the event ended.
That’s what I think too. From everything I can tell they are using the weather as a cover up of the real story that they cancelled the event because the permit was pulled over it being an UNSAFE event after the man died.. and for luring us into their UNSAFE EVENT they deserve to pay and we patrons have every right to be livid.
@@VVVLF The community has been used in an insurance scam by disco donnie,
The fact that this all happened is insane everyone else who wasnt there and tbe people that are talking shit dont know what went down and just doesnt want to accept the truth people should be aware of what happened and is going on so keep it up we got this we both will be on your side durong all this because we were there with you so yea we with you 💯% of the way!!
With the rain and hail on the forecast for starting at 4am on Tuesday morning they did the right thing in my opinion. Offered people to break down their camp site and then watch the eclipse and recommended to go home. They did not force anyone out. We enjoyed the eclipse from the sky stage where there was meditation and then we went to camp and grilled out until 9pm when it only took us 18 minutes to exit the venue. We live in Austin and had a close eye on our weather apps and agreed that we were happy that we did not stay overnight. Tuesday morning did have rain, there was hail and we did have tornado warnings. With that said, this venue has improvised roads up and down the hill country made of clay dirt. Any bit of rain and people would have been grid locked and stuck inside and a lot worse off.. Happy that they looked out for our well-being and safety by suggesting we leave and calling it off.
I think where they really fucked up was by not building infrastructure to support bad weather, this would include having a few circus tents strategically placed around the fest for people to get out of hailstorms and having a BIG evacuation route to quickly evacuate people in the event of a tornado advisory. There were many reasons the festival should not have been put in this location but these are some of the big ones.
Rain didn't come till Tuesday evening and it was a brief but strong shower in parts of the area. No way was it the right thing to do kicking everyone out before the eclipse on Monday morning. A public danger was staged to have the county shut the festival down so Disco Donnie could collect on insurance. Not the first event he has collected on, he is criminal scum, change my mind!
@@VVVLFwe stayed Monday night and had the best time after all the lemmings panicked and jumped ship…. Woke up early Tuesday morning and drove straight out - which by that time was definitely super sketchy weather - downpour, big hail, Tornado warnings blaring on our phones - if 30,000 people woulda stayed to Tuesday it would have been a muddy mess burning mudman 2.0 - organizers made the correct call
@@MrShragg wanna do an interview?… you’re the first person I’ve seen ANYWHERE claiming they got a blaring tornado warning on their phone. What time exactly did that happen? I was still in the area until 10:30 am.. never got a tornado warning on my phone. Did anyone in your group by chance get any random footage during said tornado warning or hail? Haven’t seen anything of that either.. and like I said; I was in the area until at least 10:30 am and I’ve been asking everyone for witness accounts of what happened… I’m open to hearing both sides… searching for proof.. not JUST being a fuck face about this. Lemme know if you’d like to do an interview. I’m very curious to hear your side of things cus it doesn’t match mine at all… except for the having fun part.. I DID have fun… but I was afraid I was gonna literally die the entire time I was there because of the rampant safety violations in every direction of the festival.
