I’m in for Friday on a regular ticket, then gonna play out the aftershows. Figured I’ve never seen Blink so this is as good of an opportunity as any
Probably will. They'll likely close out one of the larger side stages. There's still five stages, right? Two main stage, two side stage, one smaller?
Strongly doubt that. I bet it's Blink-182/Jawbreaker on the main stage with the Flaming Lips closing out the second. I'm wondering who's going to close out the smallest stage that day, though. Wonder if it winds up being Anti-Flag or Glassjaw.
Really hoping the first 2 bands on each day close the side to side main stages and the 3rd closes a side stage.
Selfishly, I'd love if Blink and Jawbreaker played at the same time. I saw blink in Toronto a few weeks ago and this conflict would probably result in the smallest possible crowd to see Jawbreaker...
Looking like 5-6 must sees every day for me. Plus I can get there late on Friday and leave a little early Sunday. Pretty pleased overall.
I couldn't ask for a better split between the days, but this makes me realize how much I love the lineup. I'd see a solid 3/4 of the bands each day. I know I'm going to have a ton of tough choices.
I would not be planning on when to leave or go on any date before the schedule comes out, because the order tells nothing about who plays when beyond the first two lines... Face to Face was a fifth line band last year but closed out the small stage instead of say opening or playing early on one of the other stages
You're right ... I shouldn't panic yet. Could be Bikini Kill / Raconteurs headlining opposite stages and Ween / Patti Smith subheadlining, though I'd prefer Raconteurs to subheadline and Ween opposite Bikini Kill
think I'm more worried about Ween & Against Me somehow playing at the same time.. hoping Against Me plays an afternoon set on the main stage but they are playing two albums soooo edit: no reason to worry now, the daily lineups help sort out a few things but the real concerns come with the schedules and who plays the aftershows
Right. I’m not saying I won’t get there earlier or stay later, but it’s nice to have the option. I also live pretty close to Douglas Park so I have more flexibility in that sense too.
