Every year the Mad Decent Block Parties get a little bit bigger and a little bit more rambunctious, and sometimes that causes entire events to get shut down by police. (Ahem: Chicago 2012.) This year, the parties will continue but with no Chicago date, so sadfaces for you guys in Illinois. There are a host of dates in a variety of cities and with the Mad Decent roster where it is right now, you can bet you'll hear not only from King Diplo but from that guy Baauer and RiFF RAFF, too. Get your calendars marked—the dates are below. Now we have to figure out how to simultaneously avoid and participate in these festivities.
