For example, people stopped managing their own trash so the entire site was covered in garbage by day two. Way more frat guys and Instagram type people.
The last year I went was 2015, and it just wasn't as good.

I think that was the first year they split into two weekends, which was the death of it. All it did was split the quality of the festival and people had to choose weekends and decided neither was worth the price. But if you put the shows together you'd probably get everyone there.
Yeah a really great party when I went, and then some friends went the following year and they had a blast, but I heard it went downhill pretty fast after that.
