WHAT: This Community centers around people in the Baltimore area that enjoy the EDM scene.
WHO: People who enjoy the EDM scene can range a broad spectrum. They may attend weekly club parties, annual concerts or underground warehouse parties. They may even only enjoy EDM in the privacy of their home.
WHERE: While the community was created for people located in the Baltimore, Maryland area, people who have visited the Baltimore EDM Scene may choose to join and share their experiences.
WHEN: Some may have integrated the EDM scene into their daily lifestyle (DJs, promoters) while others only participate sporadically (yearly events, monthly parties, weekly parties). This community is for anyone that enjoys the scene, no matter how often.
WHY: It doesn't matter why!
THE GOOD Did you visit a club recently and want to get the word out about how much fun you had? Do you know of a local or underground DJ that deserves some recognition? Is your hard drive full of great pictures from great shows? Or... maybe you are interested in information about upcoming events, concerts or shows in the Baltimore area. Maybe you want to network with other EDM-people in the Baltimore area. This community centers around all of that!
THE BAD The community will not tolerate any childish or offensive behavior. Be nice and respectful to other members and they will return the favor.
THE UGLY This is not a community for other musical genres, so please keep entries EDM-related. Do not post any lewd or 'adult' content, as it (and you) will be removed. Anything non-worksafe or questionable to you should go behind an LJ-cut. For a tutorial on LJ-cuts and how to use them, see LJ-Cut FAQ.
