What started as a normal movie premiere for "Electric Daisy Carnival Experience" at Grauman's Chinese Theatre ended with riot police on Hollywood Boulevard.
According to reports, the crowd moved down the street to see Kaskade play at an unofficial block party outside the Mann’s Chinese Theatre. The DJ had written on Twitter: “Today@6pm in Hollywood @Mann’s Chinese Theatre. ME+BIG SPEAKERS+MUSIC=BLOCK PARTY!!! RT!”
Apparently things got out of hand, with some members of the crowd throwing rocks and bottles and lighting fires. The LAPD shut down Hollywood Boulevard, firing at the rave-rioters with bean bags. Kaskade’s Facebook page is being flooded with commentary from fans who showed up. According to some outlets, arrests are now being made.
Paris Hilton, who was on her way to attend the premiere, tweeted, “Omg! What’s going on on Hollywood Blvd?” Insomniac Inc. Chief Executive Pasquale Rotella, who founded the Electric Daisy Carnival, expressed anger at the unauthorized, aborted musical act, tweeting that he could not attend his own premiere because of the street closures. “What genius organized the street party!” tweeted Rotella. “I’m pretty bummed.”
Kaskade’s most recent Tweets read:
“EVERYONE CHILL NOW!!! The block party has officially been shut down! BUT THIS IS TOO CRAZY AND WE NEED TO BE SAFE!” This was followed by another tweet: “I AM REALLY CONCERNED FOR EVERYONES SAFETY AT THIS POINT! PLEASE RELAX” and then “EVERYONE NEEDS TO GO HOME NOW!”
What makes me chuckle, is a video i found of the ravers caught up in the madness, exercising a bit of extreme planking!
