It just dawned on me that, if the timing of the announcement lines up with past years... It's pretty likely that I'll be on vacation in another country for a destination wedding when the line-up drops and tickets go on-sale. Gonna make it stressful if we decide to go and have to book travel while on vacation for another thing. LOL

There’s still like 3 weeks to the lineup is announced. It’s taking forever to get here. It needs to be announced already

Last time was in 2011! So they really haven't played since the fest grew into its current configuration... On the plus side? I think Big D and the Kids Table are still in play.

I just came to post this. It has been far too long since they have played.

From what I’ve seen from pics, it’s Spike, Jake Kiley (Strung Out), Jon Swami (Rocket From The Crypt, Hot Snakes, Drive Like Jehu) and two other guys I don’t recognize

Looks like Death From Above 1979 are pretty likely. East coast US + Canadian run starting just after Riot [MEDIA]

They did just play Chicago in February. Doesn't rule them out, but I don't think it makes them particularly likely either.

This is the weekend after Riot. I’m more convinced Riot gets Sublime and Jane’s [MEDIA]

I don’t understand why anybody would think she’d be a fit/make sense? Nothing about her sound, aesthetic, history, or anything at all would make her a decent fit for me.0

I'm a big fan of folks coming up with ideas/wishlist artists that are a bit "out of the box" but still make a ton of sense within the Riot aesthetic. Two great examples of this for me would be CHVRCHES and Ke$ha. Two names that would make a ton of sense for Riot but aren't commonly referenced. But it's worth considering that a big part of it is just that there's a reason the people who book Riot are the people who have that job. Hah. I don't really expect SlayerBoi69 or BroDudeNFGGuy182 on Reddit to be into the idea of having a diversified line-up... But what's kinda cool is that Riot is able to think outside of the box for people and present ideas we might not come up with otherwise. Every year there's a few "holy shit; never thought of that but it's perfect" type artists. If you asked me in 2012 when I was attending my first Riot Fest if I ever thought the festival would ever book Ani DiFranco, Insane Clown Posse, and Foo Fighters I would have said "no." But my own thinking has evolved over the years with the festival as its grown and evolved. Kinda cool TBH. Haha.

Superchunk is teasing a 30-year Foolish tour. I know the ‘chunk has played Riot a few times already, so maybe they’re due for a return and an album-play

My guess? They actually know that Sum-41 is playing so they couldn't post that one.

They should have just used the Sum-41 poster instead. It could still show a possibility of The Interrupters but at least have an actual lock to go along with it.

Apparently Bad Time Records has two "dream come true" announcements coming next week. One of them is a tour and the other is an album announcement. I am really hoping the album announcement is something new from Big D and the Kids Table. Big D's been doing a lot of shows with Kill Lincoln recently and it's just too perfect a fit for them to not release an album with Bad Time. Hah. And doing so could really put some gas into that band's tank!

I'm still perplexed as to why anybody is hung-up on the Interrupters playing. They played last year, the band has outright said the Chicago date on that leaked poster is just a Sum-41 festival date that they aren't on, and... That poster has a date that's blurred out in June (but none in September). Literally every sign lead to "not playing."
