Lightning In a Bottle :: Lineup Revealed
Lightning In a Bottle is an experience near and dear to our hearts, and speaking purely for myself but knowing I'm not alone, today's lineup announcement is an emotional time.  There are some key players returning this year like Woogie alums Lee Burrige, Idiot Savant, Pumpkin, Sammy Bliss, and Christian Martin.  I'm stoked to finally see Deser ...

Xavier Rudd :: "The Mother" (Lance Herbstrong Remix w/ Joel Cummins)
Awesome little jam I stumbled upon this afternoon that is now getting major attention on Hype Machine.  Electro and down-tempo movement Lance Herbstrong joined by Umphrey's McGee's very own Joel Cummins, remixed Xavier Rudd's "The Mother" with a bang.  I love the groove throughout this song - I want to dance, I want to bounce, I really just want to sing along with the lyrics as loud as I ...

Gladkill :: "Distance"
Fresh off of Bassnectar's fall tour, Boris Gladkill is an artist on the rise with plenty of new material in store for 2013.  Having first seen Gladkill at Lightning in a Bottle, I can tell you that this dude has got what it takes: combining futuristic basslines, downtempo crunk-in-a-cup beat progressions and synths that send you into a galactic frenzy, Gladkill's newest release "Distance" tru ...

Gathering of the Vibes :: Bridgeport, CT :: 7.19-7.22.12
Our first Gathering of the Vibes experience was nothing short of spectacular.  By the time day four came to a close, it was easy for our UFO crew to understand why this event was proudly celebrating its 17th anniversary.  From start to finish, GOTV 2012 was an amazing plethora of great jam music, intense weather and of course, good vibes! We arrived in Bridgeport, CT ar ...

UFO is proud to present our Lightning in a Bottle 2012 recap video.  Our friends and fans know that this festival made a lasting impression on us as music patrons.  A carnival of vibes, a smorgasbord of yoga-toned bodies, a non-stop assault of music and workshops -- however you describe it, one thing is certain: The Do LaB captured lightning, and the bottle was Silverado Canyon ...

Lightning in a Bottle :: Day 3 :: Sunday, May 27th 2012
7:30 a.m. on Sunday morning, the only two words on my mind are "home stretch."  That's the nature of a vacation; the final day is always bittersweet.  Silverado Canyon has already given me my money's worth, but I greedily plan to milk Sunday completely dry. I wasn't the only one unwilling to throw in the towel.  Massive energy from Big Gigantic and Bassnectar aside, we ...

INTERVIEW
Jesse Fleming :: Community Vibes, Burning Man, and Building the LiB Experience
One of the best aspects of Lightning in a Bottle: you never know who you're going to bump into next.  The executive producer of the festival is sitting right there, you say?  A perfect opportunity to get to the bottom of all this madness.  Jesse Fleming is one of the many co-creators of The Do LaB and one of the primary figures in the LIB family, and there's no better person to answ ...

Govinda :: Horace the Sun God, Mysticism, and Shaking your Ass
Austin-based musical genie Govinda (Shane Madden) is a master of mystic flair.  It's easy to look steezy when you're sitting back in the most plush of dressing room tents with two beautiful dancers lounging around, but Shane had won us over well before we met up with him for a quick pre-show rundown of the stunning set to come. So how is the universe treating you today? The universe ...

Random Rab :: The Guzheng, Community Vibes, and The Conundrum of Human Existence
We were blessed with the unexpected honor of chatting up Random Rab before his Sunday set at Lightning in a Bottle.  With a myriad of scented chakra-charging oils laid before us (the third chakra oil is for confidence and smells like sunscreen), we still weren't quite prepared to go toe-to-toe with someone who was ready for any curveball question we threw. So tell me, how is the unive ...

Lightning in a Bottle :: Day 2 :: Saturday, May 26 2012
10 a.m. on Saturday morning.  Only one festival day has passed but it feels like three.  Morning yoga started without me, and missing it has sadly become the most reliable milestone to keep track of the days.  I’d be most likely to attend 3 a.m. yoga if there was such a thing.  Instead, Tipper was my unofficial yoga class, pumping out enough violent bass chiropracti ...

Dream Rockwell of Lucent Dossier Experience :: Realizing the Dream, The Lucent Temple of Consciousness, Alien Visitors and Group Prayer.
If you want to get to the bottom of the LIB experience, Dream Rockwell is a fantastic person to get to know.  Not only is she a founding member of the Lucent Dossier Experience and The Do LaB as well, but she was behind one of the best aspects of LIB 2012; namely, the Lucent Temple of Consciousness.  Read on as we plunge further into discovering the hidden energy of LIB. So ...

Shena Turlington :: Sustainable Practices at Lightning in a Bottle
It’s a sunny day on the festival grounds.  Birds are chirping, the wind is gently blowing from the lake.  But more importantly, a few days of festival action hasn’t ruined the natural feeling of Silverado Canyon: no smog from the waste truck, no accidental landfills strewn across the festival grounds. The dancing might be dirty, but the festival grounds are clean. Lightning in a Bo ...

Manifest :: Building the Bamboo Stage
An interesting fellow named Manifest literally fell into my lap behind the Bamboo Stage.  He had perched himself on top of the bamboo structure and dropped down nearly on top of me.  "Sorry!  Don't worry, I built this thing!" he said with pride.  Time for an interview! Ok, let’s start with your name. My name is Manifest.  Just kind of one of the guys that has always ...

Lightning In A Bottle :: Day 1 :: Friday, May 25th, 2012
10:30 am on Friday morning.  I am honestly not surprised I slept through both morning yoga sessions.  Few feelings are worse than waking up after a long night in your jeans in a tent in a parking lot on a hot afternoon.  I thanked my lucky stars when beautiful cloud cover graced Friday morning and lit our propane stove to make breakfast. Lightning in a Bottle 2012: nothing short of ...

Apparat :: War & Peace, Melancholy and Bliss, and Hypnotizing Lightning in a Bottle
Apparat played a sunset set on the first day of LIB, a perfect soundscape to lay straight back and watch the twilight clouds crawl by overhead.  Not more than an hour before, we had a chance to catch up with lead man and LIB veteran Sascha Ring and talk about this new live band setup.  Read on for more insight into the heart of LIB. How is the universe treating you today?  What i ...

Casual Chat with an LIB Patron :: How Burner Are You?
A conversation about camera equipment turned into something more when we encountered a random LIB'er in a purple fuzzy coat.  We had no idea this man would later become one of our closest festival friends throughout the weekend, but before all that we got some gritty man-on-the-street interview time in the bag.  Our main question for him, as a Burning Man vet, was the prevalence of that ...
