ive never cared so much about all the bells and whistles, but this looks a little more expansive than usual. maybe they had bigger plans but had to downgrade once the move back to douglass happened. one thing that stuck out to me, the kevin smith stuff is kinda...random? as a straight white millennial male, those movies were kind of a right of passage for me but feels weird at a festival that is so chicago do things that are so new jersey? the fireside bowl fascade is sweet though.
Clocked out, driving home with the windows down, my playlist blasting, off work till Tuesday, seeing Idles tonight. Yer boys locked in.
Is it just me or are they using way more of the park this year? Essentially every square inch of that side of the road it seems. In past years the track was always on the outside of the fences but looks like Riot Land uses alot of that area. Also looks like the food & "Beyond the Fest" areas make use of what I thought was previously a medic/backstage area.
lol guess we'll have to wait and see which map is the real map. I'm guessing it's the static one you posted, though, and for whatever reason they took some strange artistic liberties with the interactive version.
I think it's just that the scale is all off on the interactive map so they couldn't squeeze all the Riot Land stuff into that one area. The interactive map being from the perspective of looking south really threw me for a minute too.
I remember the one year they printed the map inverted like this and it was confusing as hell for a few hours. But yes, I agree - the scale is off on the interactive map.
Lol same I had to pull up google maps to get my bearings for a second I thought they completely flipped everything around and the fest was literally happening on Ogden
already experiencing major FOMO for not getting into the Offspring metro show now that im seeing a bunch of posts about people who won
they released more catbite/LJG tickets: https://www.ticketweb.com/event/rio...iI2NWY2ZmIzZTY2MGVkZGYifQ==&edpPlParam=?pl=eb
Yeah Bright Eyes just canceled They are a pretty big booking so wonder who will replace them if anybody
Please god just leave the spot blank or drop someone else exactly in their spot I’m gonna be annoyed if they do something like move Waxahatchee to the bright eyes spot and make her conflict with pavement
Man, that stinks for anybody hoping to see them. Riot just shared the post on IG without any commentary so… Not expecting a replacement at this stage and I doubt Waxahatchee wants to conflict with Pavement. Basement bumping up into that slot would be awesome for me but I don’t see that happening. LOL Slot will probably just get nixed.
Love & rockets just lost all their Jane’s addiction gigs, they may be available. Evolution fest in stl is in the following weekend, their upper-mid card could be possibilities: Nile’s Rodger & chic, billy idol, killer mike
Anyone want two GA Saturday tickets? I’ll take $120 for the pair or honestly whatever you can offer. I nabbed some through a Do312 promo but have a wedding the same day, and after much consideration can’t bail on it.
Scratch that, RE: the Bright Eyes thing. Riot posted on FB: “We’ll have updates for you ASAP.” So there may be a replacement or some schedule shuffling.
