I was just thinking about Mest the other day. One of those bands I've somehow never seen, would love to see them at RF.
Holy shit I was just about to come here to post that their (Bowling For Soup) bitching might have actually worked lmaoooooo
Or maybe Riot just booked Mest and Authority Zero and BFS is taking a day off. Either way, three bands I've never seen and would have fun seeing if there's nothing else going on.
People keep suggesting Paramore on Reddit and elsewhere and I fear people are going to be real disappointed when the lineup drops and their name is not on there.
I think it will be a similar situation as with 3oh!3. A 30min set at 1pm but it will be packed and they will just play the hits.
If it's an all killer no filler set, I'm in. If it's a bunch of jokes and banter that take up time that could be spent playing songs, I'm out.
Pavement is playing a 3-night residency at Brooklyn Steel Sept 11-14. Not sure if this would count them out for Riot, but something to note
Anyone else remember the last Chicagoland warped tour in 2018 when there were rumors floating around that Fall Out Boy or Blink-182 were supposed to make a surprise appearance but then Mest was the big surprise for that date? good times
I think that Pavement residency just shot up their chances, shows they will be active then at least. Would The Postal Service x Death Cab x Pavement be big enough to be top billed one of the days, or would their be an act above all of them?
My new prediction QOSTA into Foo Fighters Mars Volta into Tool Death Cab into Pavement into Postal Service you can also switch Mars Volta into QOTSA and drop tool. EDIT GASLIGHT INTO FOO FIGHTERS
Really hoping they book something unique, even if it's a smaller headliner. Tool have been touring the same show for awhile now.
Anyone else having trouble with ‘concert week’? I’ve gone through the concert week page and it brings up the list of eligible shows but not a single one I’ve clicked into actually show the 25.00 tix, weird
Agenda for the board meeting is up. https://chicagoparkdistrict.legista...572&GUID=11E3E73C-A815-4910-9D00-6EE8D6D10751 No Riot Fest, no Reset on the agenda.
