Are these confirmed ? Only interested in RCR, was hoping for Dead To Me, Banner Pilot, Lagwagon, TLA Also, read somewhere that PEARS is playing a secret show on Sat. (probably Atlantic)
Definitely would be hitting up the Red City Radio one if that is a thing. But yea, nothing else really pops out to me. Was hoping for The Get Up Kids to do one, Four Minute Mile set would make me cry.
My mystery set hopes: The Lawrence Arms The Flatliners Dead To Me PKEW PKEW PKEW Direct Hit Red City Radio The Menzingers
I think these are possible. I missed last year, unfortunately, but a lot of bigger bands did them 2 years ago. The Flatliners and A Wilhelm Scream played back to back at 1:00 am, was incredible. Less Than Jake was the first show at High Dive and Propaghandi played The Wooly. Captain, We're Sinking was one as well, I think, and I am upset I missed it now.
Flatliners and Wilhelm Scream did them last year, those ruled. I coulnd't get into the against me one but I heard it also ruled.
The Flatliners secret set last year was top notch. So happy I got to see them play Great Awake in full
Just shows you the appeal of FEST to some bands! I am sure the numbers at each set they play will increase because of this announcement
Definitely seems like it.. Going to be a must see set then. Hopefully they do a secret set too Damn maybe I missed that then
This is about the time that I get really excited about the upcoming weekend. I don't have a lot of bands on the schedule for Friday, so I am hoping we get a couple really solid mystery sets.
I can't believe this is this week! Also hitting The Orpheum pre Fest show now. Booking it from the Orlando airport and hopefully catching Red City Radio. Such a crazy good lineup that night
Really hoping Red City is one of the mystery bands. Lagwagon playing Hoss would also be incredible. I know they played that at Rock Fest this year, or possibly last year, so there is a possibility, maybe?
I have Such Gold, Audio Karate (overlaps with Free Throw, unfortunately) and Broadway Calls lined up. Outside of that the mystery sets is all I got going for me.
I'm probably going to hit Direct Hit, Bad Cop/Bad Cop, Kali Masi and Pears before those on friday. Give them a shot! Kali Masi's record is so good.
Do you remember if the mystery sets get announced the day before or earlier the same day? I can't remember.
