Riot Fest 2021 (September 17-19, Chicago IL) Tour • Page 215

Yikes. I’m just going to wait and buy a resale 3 day on StubHub closer to the fest then I guess haha. They definitely should have packaged some of those as 3 day passes.

 

it pays to be trusting of the brand. i bought my 3 day pass back in early december of 2019 for $129.97 (including fees!) only 43 bucks a day, without even factoring in the bonus day. hot damn! i dont think they are gouging by any means, they just had to make up for a lost year of income, plus lord knows what other costs go into building the infrastructure for the refund/transfers and all that too.

 

Yeah, I'm a little bummed that I spent $310 for 2 days, when the 3 day passes were selling for $240 or so after fees.

 

Lol someone said “thrown at morrissey”

 

I said “After ending my time in one of the biggest British rock bands, I’d start my own solo project”

 

When do we think aftershows will be announced?

 

Low ticket warning email was just sent out

 

Judging by the dates of previous years' announcements- probably early/mid August.

 

Dropkick in front of Rancid on this one so there is still hope

 

Looks like Saturday will be a RTJ/FNM co-headliner. So hopefully there’s no conflict

Although, now I’m fearing a Dinosaur Jr./Motion City Soundtrack conflict…

 

i really enjoy how each day has a different style layout to define the power structures, haha
Friday- one clear headliner
saturday - 2 solid act acts co headlining (where neither are as big as the fri/sun single headliners, but together are a formidable duo)
Sunday - one clear headliner but 2 others not nearly as big but still get headliner font, just on 2nd row.

 

I decided to not buy any day passes. If there are any three day passes out there for resale later I’ll probably jump on that. But I didn’t feel like $150 for one day or $300 for two days was a great deal. On top of that, almost all the bands I’m most excited about I’ve already seen multiple times. Many of them I’ve already seen at Riot Fest even.

 

Looks like Meg Myers dropped from the lineup

Damnnnn I was looking forward to catching her set

 

She is still listed on the poster and the text lineup on the site. Maybe they just messed up that poster they tweeted out?

 

They tweeted the daily lineups out earlier today and she wasn’t on it so…. But she still has riot fest listed on her site

 

I hope she's still on, I was making my own Riot playlist the other day and checking out artists I've never heard, and was WAY into her music.

 

State Champs is suppouse to announce a tour tomorrow with Four Year Strong, Just Friends and Real Friends.

As the other bands are already playing Riot, I hope Real Friends to get added to the line up too

 

ALBUM PLAYS THIS WEEK. This is not confirmed, nor speculation. I just want album plays this week

 

Real Friends is touring with State Champs and Touché Amoré with Thrice. Sad that none of those 2 bands are playing Riot

 

That Thrice tour has a Chicago date which seemed kind of surprising to me. Although it does seem that Riot is lore relaxed on the radius clause this year

 

Yeah, I will totally hit the Chicago date mostly for TA. I think the radius close is very relax this year because of the sold out. Usually they would have "???" in their tour

 

Kinda dirty that Real Friends didn't get booked considering they're from Chicago lol

 

Maybe they’ll added later on, or be at the Thursday pre-party. Being announced ahead of time probably would’ve ruined the suspense/surprise that they’re back with a new singer
