Bloc is back!
Wednesday 6th March 2013 | Dima
Bloc Festival is a large electronic music festival in England which began in 2006. It is devoted to electronic music of all genres including electro, hip hop, IDM, techno, house music,reggae, drum and bass and dubstep, and incorporates both DJ sets and live shows.Anybody remember what happened with Bloc festival last year? It was headlined by Snoop Dogg but because of fear of over crowding it was shutdown on opening night amid chaotic scenes on arrival of police evacuating thousands of people from the venue in London's docklands. Anger on Twitter gathered around the #bloc hashtag as pictures were relayed of festival goers standing behind crowd barriers with police looking on.
Inspired by 2012 headline quote, Bloc is back now, with exciting acts and excellent organisation!
