Riot Fest 2025 Tour • Page 69

Honestly, kind of like this one compared to those in the past. I agree about split sets and a shareable image, but this one is better than I’ve seen most of these things so for me it’s some kind of progress, I suppose.

 

Friday: Rilo Kiley, first little bit of Weird Al, Knocked Loose, Blink 182

Saturday: Citizen, Bouncing Souls, Knuckle Puck, Dropkick Murphys, Jack White, first half Sex Pistols, second half Weezer

Sunday: Smoking Popes, first half Lambrini Girls, Dance Hall Crashers, Hanson, The Wonder Years, rest of Cobra Starship, rest of Idles, Jawbreaker, Green Day

Honestly love how straightforward the schedule is this year, aside from that TWY/Cobra/IDLES nonsense lmao

 

One of my biggest "advantages" this year is the paired stages. I'm annoyed that the Wonder Years' set overlaps the way it does with Bad Religion... But I can watch BR and catch the last few Wonder Years' songs while waiting for Texas is the Reason. There's a bunch of instances like that and it's all pretty convenient.

Related: Does anybody else use setlists to help plan things out? Seeing where certain songs land for "Weird Al" and Stiff Little Fingers has been super helpful in sorting out when to switch between those two stages.

 

Well, VIP is going to be packed this year…

 

It’s always packed. Past years a ton of people upgrade once they are at the fest. The upgrade both always has had people at it throughout the day.

 

The Adopt-A-Portapotty contest is back!

@2ndImpact it's your time to shine!

 

I think the obvious shoe-in this year is just naming one “Dookie”

 

Just found out we may need to cancel our trip to Chicago for the 2nd year in a row. Super bummed.

 

Aftershow announcement is next Tuesday.

 

I'm excited for the potential Fueled By Ramen bands crossover since they're all the same day. I'm manifesting William Beckett coming out for the Gym Class Heroes set to do 7 Weeks even though its unlikely

 

They’re about to pack this place.

 

Any idea if there are 3-day passes?

 

$100 for any of these days is such a killer deal tbh

 

Life has been hitting me hard lately, and it's looking less and less likely I can pull off this year, which would be my first miss since I started going in 2012. Having a hard time coming to terms with that.

Might be able to pull off just going Sunday but that's still pending.

 

It’s just single days and right now it’s at the north riverside Costco. I’d imagine the city locations will also carry it. I’ll have an answer sometime today.

 

That’s actually the closest Costco to me. Thanks!

 

I assume you need a Costco membership to buy one of the tickets?

 

That or gift cards. I could pick one up for you.

 

Weezer joined Olivia Rodrigo for 2 songs at lolla

 

They have the Fevo cards at Lincoln Park Costco.
