Many people attend LIB for the auditory experience alone. I admit, I'm not tuned into the independent music scene at all - the only act I recornized from the 2013 lineup is William Close and the Earth Harp Collective, whom produces extradionary tunes. Hailed headliners include Purity Ring, who recently rocked Coachella, as well as Nicolas Jaar, Rusko, Tycho, Paper Diamond, Emancipator, PANTyRAiD, Lee Burridge, GRiZ.

If I do attend LIB it will be my first time at an art-meets-spiritualty festival. I've never been to Coachella, Burning Man, Bhakti Fest, Lucidity Outside Lands. I'm fascinated by the transformative experiences friends of mine have had. Have you been to any of these events? Why or not? What do you think of LIB and do you intend on going this year?
Lightning in A Bottle: July 11-15 at Lake Skinner in Temecula, CA.
