FRIDAY 115-145 Cliffdiver 2-245 Foxy Shazam 245-315 Hot Mulligan (essentially the rest after Foxy's done) 4-5 Jeff Rosenstock 545-645 The Wonder Years 645-725 Taking Back Sunday (once The Wonder Years are done) 725-825 Alkaline Trio 830-10 My Chemical Romance SATURDAY 4-445 Movements 430-530 Alexisonfire 515-615 The Menzingers 620-720 Bad Religion (probably first half until TSSF?) 645-745 The Story So Far 745-830 GWAR 830-10 The Misfits (maybe a little Yellowcard?) SUNDAY 1-130 The Linda Lindas or Joey Valance & Brae (could also see myself skipping and getting there later) 320-405 Less Than Jake 4-445 Coolio 5-6 Jimmy Eat World 6-635 Midtown (after Jimmy is done) 705-750 The Maine (first half, then the rest of YYY) 710-810 Yeah Yeah Yeahs 810-9 Ice Cube (once YYY is done) 9-930 The Academy Is... (after Ice is done) Not a terrible schedule, honestly MUCH more agreeable than in years' past. Descendents v. TWY sucks ass, as does YYY v. The Maine, but neither make me terribly upset.
Overall, the line-up is pretty solid! I kinda hope they adjust Sunday so that it's a bit more staggered because having some of those sets almost directly overlap is gonna be a pain. Also? That Yellowcard/Misfits thing is pure bullshit. Haha. Nothing unmanageable on the whole, TBH. Did they add anybody other than Mothica?
Yeah that was kind of a shock to just drop it but the conflicts are pretty minimal for this guy. Honestly, the only one that sucks for me was MCR/Bleachers vs Marky Ramone. I was kinda stoked to hear some Ramones songs, but after 2+ years of waiting, I can't miss MCR. Friday is stacked but well dispersed. Saturday is v v top heavy but nothing major conflict-wise. Sunday is well dispersed for me as well. Annoyed Sincere Engineer is the one of the first acts on Friday - they deserve better. Big ups to GWAR and TAI for getting those primetime spots.
Probably gonna do a full-blown mock for myself after a few beers tonight. I'm overexcited and need to sit with it for a bit. EDIT: I'm also weirdly disappointed that I won't get to see Yungblud. I've been digging into his music the last few days and liking it way more than I thought I would.
Looks like I can literally sit at the Rise Stage all day Saturday and go from Charlotte Sands to Yellowcard without moving. What dreams are made of
Yeah, I was hoping that Yellowcard would start earlier than Misfits so I could at least see some of Ocean Avenue before watching the Misfits. Them starting at the same time is rough.
I completely took it for granted that save face would be one of the first bands to play that day and JEW would close a stage. Didn’t for a second think they’d both play at the same time and that JEW would also overlap with midtown
Wait. Looking at the image they posted... And then the "interactive" schedule? The Sunday timings are more staggered for some of these sets (Joey Valence starts at 1:15 and not 1, for example). Of course, it also has Ice Cube from 7:30-8:30 rather than 8-9 which screws up what seemed like a perfect ending to the day. Looks like they have some tweaking to do... We'll see how this shakes out.
