The paint party, held at the Tucson Convention Center, was a wild time. With crazy lighting, bigger screens flashing all manner of visuals and much better music, Dayglow easily became one of the most exciting events thrown for college students all year.
Porter Robinson, the 19-year-old DJ, conducted the chaos from the stage, laying down awesome beats. The amount of paint used improved too when compared to last year, and the addition of the color blue was a simple yet good idea.
The crowd looked bigger than last year’s too, but since the event was in a much larger room, it looked a bit empty. More space for everyone is never a bad thing though. The only potential problem was that the gender ratio was a little off, making the event BYODP, bring your own dance partner. But if that isn’t the eternal college problem, there isn’t one.
