Speaking of Rufio.. they came on my playlist yesterday and I was like.. that'd be an amazing out of nowhere reunion get for Riot
Senses fail and saves the day are teasing a anniversary tour for let it unfold you and through being cool with the announcement being on the 21st I could see both of them being on riot. Maybe we get the lineup on the 21st
2019 Are they the only band that's done 2 days of Riot in the same year- I'm blanking on anyone else?
No.. They did play 2 albums but in the same set on Sunday and also played Metro on the Saturday night
To the absolute surprise of no one the Chicago rise against show is sold out already. I know they won’t be on the riot lineup but it would be a nice surprise if they somehow end up showing up given how fast Chicago sold out
Might be a bit chilly mid-October but they should have scheduled it outdoors. But Mt Joy seems to really like the place and might be 16OC's choice to close out the fairgrounds season.
I would say that makes them very likely. Pretty much would have to be Riot or Wicker Park Fest since most of the other Chicago fests have already been announced.
I have seen a few people suggest Alvvays for this year, which I thought was an odd suggestion because they fit the vibe way more at Pitchfork or Lolla (which they played at both last year) but then I found out they are Riot Fest alums and so I would love it if they played so I can see them one last time on this album touring cycle.
Anyone think we get some kind of clue today?? I'm done with the rumors or the mocks or the me complaining so I can start booking my trip
I dub thee the king of wishful thinking Waiting until after Memorial Day to drop the lineup (when people can generally get better deals on hotels/flights) would be asinine. Even if there's an issue with one of the headliners.. just release it as a first wave and and the third headliner in the second wave.
