Sun God

SGF14!.. or Sun God 2014.
**NOTE: If you’re trying to sneak people in when the lines are short (ahem), be on guard. I saw them kick a small group out and cut off their wristbands. UCSD ID + barcode on wristband + intact wristband + staring at yo face = requirements to get in. You’ve been warned! Anyways …
I am writing this from home, after a few brutal hours of feeling like a prisoner at UCSD (this time, in the non-​academic sense). With the beefed up security (SDPD, security guards. mall cops?) the school feels like it’s on lockdown. Watch out if you’re driving — there’s a cop hiding. Watch out if you’re drinking — there’s a cop hiding. Watch out if you’re scantily dressed — there’s a perv staring.
Sun God is split between 2 stages, the «Sun God Stage» and the «Dance Stage» — if you have no idea who is who, chances are neither do the performers. This year our up and coming artists playing are: Joey Bada$$, Young the Giant, Diplo, Juicy J, and. that’s pretty much all I know.
Ok, I’m going to hydrate and enjoy my 2^nd (and last) Sun God. Transfer Students, united!

Oh Sun God.
I’ve never really liked the music at the three Sun Gods I’ve been to. N.E.R.D? Drake? Wiz Khalifa? Sorry, just not my cup of tea. I’m especially annoyed this year because SDSU recently got Lupe to perform at theirs. (OK, Lupe just performed here two years ago but I’d much rather hear «Kick, Push» than «Black and Yellow»)
What I love about Sun God is that it’s ONE fucking day where UCSD kids stop obsessing over organic chemistry notes and remember that they’re in place with 20,000 other college students. Seriously, it’s like drunken Christmas for us Tritons.
Watch out for law enforcement and security. Apparently they ship in cops from all around San Diego county. I’ve seen tons of people getting arrested. My favorite story is the guy I saw running from the cops yelling «I DIDN’T DO IT, BRO!»
Alright, I’m off to enjoy my third Sun God!
