Naked people! Drugs! Sex! People in completely outrageous getups! Okay, so it’s San Francisco, and this isn’t anything new, but SF’s annual LoveFest, the largest single-day electronic dance music event in America offers more nakedness, more people on drugs and uh, more outrageous costumes than usual. It’s like the city of San Francisco on acid. Actually, it really is the city of San Francisco … on acid.
Over ten thousand people are expected to turn out to see the parade which will consist of 25 ridiculously hippie-fied, decked-out floats featuring local DJs and other such entertainment. The colorful chaos will begin at 2nd and Market streets at noon and will culminate in a huge Electric Daisy Carnival-esque electric dance festival, costume spectacle, love-filled extravaganza right in front of city hall. That’s right, not only is this thing somehow legal, but it all takes place under the approving eye of city hall itself. Only in San Francisco …
As their website boasts: “While Americans are struggling with an economic meltdown, ruthless hurricane season and political uncertainty of our future, San Francisco LoveFest will provide some much needed love.” Looks like all you do really need is love, and maybe $700 billion.
It just so happens that LoveFest is scheduled for this Saturday, the same day as the big Homecoming game, so choose your loyalties wisely kids, Oski is judging you.

Last year there were over 85,000 and this year we are expecting over 100,000 (a few more than ten thousand).

Nicely done! Descriptive yet concise.
