Here's an interesting approach to festival promotion. Made Event, the promoters of electronic dance music concerts, including , Electric Zoo, has launched "Come To Life." The campaign encourages attendees to organically enjoy -- rather than with chemical enhancement -- the light show, the music and the energy of the crowds.
