this fucking rules. 3 out of my 4 biggest wants (head automatica, finch and viagra boys) all hit! this whole thing goes deeeeeep! ive definitely posted in previous years about wanting dresden dolls, hot damn!! screaming females, parliment funk!
Immediately noticed no TBS but didn’t catch that GWAR isn’t playing. Weird. Wonder if this officially ushers in a new era of Riot Fest
Cue people on Reddit complaining about there being “no old school punk” in the lineup (it’s happening as we speak LOL)
I’m not recognizing any reunions or any non full-time bands (The Starting Line, Soco, Academy Is, etc)
Of course. Look, this festival isn’t for me anymore because my tastes have changed but I’ll never object to it not having acts I want.
TAI has the FOB show but didn’t they also play last year? B&C might be the closest to it. But yeah, no reunion legacy acts. Probably costs them more to get them.
Just realized Quicksand, GB and Rival Schools are all playing. Walter’s gonna have a busy weekend lmao
