That's why you need drugs and sloots to attract you to the venue, not some marvelous talent people are clamoring to see.

Tbh I play guitar and a bit of piano, was in a band for a while and also produce edm and in all honestly it is easier for me to write/produce a decent song on traditional instruments than in midi on synths.
Most people in bands are fairly talentless too.
But in the end you don't go to concerts and edm festivals for the same reasons so there is no point comparing.

You don't know what you are talking about.
If you have ever worked on any sort of musical endeavor, you would at least respect what artists are doing even if its not your cup of tea. It's not easy to create a musical project; edm or not.
It's like me saying in the context of painting, that surrealism is stupid and photorealism is the only painting style that takes any talent. All the while, I haven't invested much time painting besides a highschool art class.

Personally, I'm not a big fan of EDM, but I do think there is good electronic music. Specifically, synthwave or that vaporwave retro stuff I find pretty cool. However, in my opinion nothing can beat a good old fashioned band that are a master of their craft. It seems as if most EDM concerts all the artist has to do is hit the play button and adjust volumes.
Here's a link to a band that I think is exceptional, most of you probably have not heard of them at all. AFAIK many of their songs use custom tuning and the vocalist never uses auto tune.
skip to 3:15 for solo if need be

From a compositional standpoint I can respect some electronic artists. However the fact that there aren't actual musical instruments involved, the complete absence of the group dynamic between musicians on stage, and the lack of spontaneity like live riffing/soloing, changing tempo etc. means that a live show is pretty much pointless unless you are there for the drugs/sloots/lightshow/dancing. Which is cool, if that's your thing then that's great but lol @ people who are "there for the music".

Everytime people try to defend EDM the throw up a picture of a huge festival. Let's be real tea EDM festivals HAVE to be a spectacle. They have no alternative but to take the focus off of the "artist". The "artist" typically do nothing more than hit a button dance around, throw their arms in the air and pretend to turn knobs as if they are actually applying input to the music...
...and let's be real tea there are dozens of YouTube videos of top EDM artist hitting play on a Mac and then messing wth buttons on a piece of equipment that doesn't exist. There are videos showing famous EDM artist and their mixing equipment isn't even plugged into the board. There is literally no physical way their input is making it into the sound board. Let me guess, all the hard work (snagging loops, playing around with a drum machine, and layering one handed ridiculously easy piano parts) was done in a recording studio prior to the "concert"...LOL just LOL
....and as a previous professional touring musician I don't know a single muscian that takes EDM seriously. For most Muscians, assisting with the production/recording of EDM is literally one step up from teaching music to children at the local Guitar Center.
This is the "music" you are paying to see "live"....
