Saw you're from Cincinnati, if you're looking for quality Dubstep you don't have to go far. We've been hosting quality bassweight here in town since 2007, including Hatcha, Joe Nice, Seven, Cyrus, Antiserum and more. Send me a PM with your contact info and I'll keep you in touch with everything that we're doing and other good local shows.

Also regionally there are many good events in Columbus, Cleveland, Bowling Green, Dayton, Indy, Chicago, Detroit, Louisville, Pittsburgh, etc. If you're willing to travel a bit you can catch most of the US tours as they usually hit at least one of those cities.
Yeah, I'm new to the EDM scene, but I've was at Joe Nice back in August I believe, and Datsik last month, and I'm hip to Flash Rage and EDM OTR. I've not been to a lot of shows, but I'm making it point to get to as many as I can.

Not USA but north america... Vancouver is the birthplace of dubstep in North America... shout out to LIGHTA!, Max Ulis, Michael Red and New forms... they have been on this site since 2006 and still go strong... such good vibes although I would just classify them as bass music...
