That seems really surprising, at least from a marketing standpoint. I would expect a LOT of furious people since the flyer has said final show this whole time. I also would be kind of surprised for them to do two sets in one day. How trustworthy/connected is the person who told you? I've been kind of banking on whatever they do being Friday. If it's Saturday I at least hope it's at like Concord or something bigger. Can't have it truly be the last ever and then do it at a 400 cap or there will be so much pain...
I would only be up for a Descendents or Vandals after-show. Nothing can make me leave early Sunday with the Misfits headlining and I would rather not be up super late when I'm going to be getting up and heading back to the festival the next day. But for either of those bands I might make an exception.
My buddy is selling his three day pass for $150. They are currently $210. PM me if you're interested.
Someone in another thread said that Motion City Soundtrack is doing an after show at a 550 cap venue. My guess is Double Door.
I'm really bummed about missing part of morrissey to make it to MCS but 550 cap send off to MCS is now my priority for the entire fest.
There go my dreams of a TBS / JEW after show. Hoping it is still technically an after show so that it starts late enough to catch after I'm done at the fest.
It's gotta be an after show. That's probably why they had to wait to announce it, and I seriously doubt that they would book a show during Riot Fest. At least I hope so, haha.
Hope there's a Thursday aftershow. Can't make the festival, but I could swing driving to Chicago for them.
I think we might be getting Riot Fest aftershow info today. The Concord Music Hall tagged Riot Fest regarding concert announcements today.
Last year was the first year I went to any after shows. I saw TBS at Cobra Lounge on Friday and Atreyu / Every Time I Die at Double Door on Saturday. I had tickets to see Alkaline Trio on Sunday but I was just too tired.
I have no idea who the opening bands are for MCS and that rules because it means watching most of Misfits on Sunday. Does anyone know if 3 day pass holders will have a presale like the Denver shows?
