Riot Fest 2025 Tour • Page 72

Decided to not push myself during Riot Fest and skipping the aftershows. Bought our Costco vouchers and used them for Friday.

 

The smartest adult thing anyone can do. I’m proud of you. I wish I could mentally allow myself that.

 

My partner basically forces me into that. Haha. And she's generally correct... But there's a 100% chance we'd be going to that Bouncing Souls/H2O aftershow if I weren't so deadset on seeing all of Green Day.

 

I bought via Stubhub both days I went last year, you'll quite literally just get emailed a pdf of your ticket (I'd specifically look for "instant download" type tickets). It works just fine unless the person on the other end is being a piece of shit.

 

To be fair it is also the last weekend the White Sox have a home game so I'll probably be at the park on Saturday but that's chill compared to a late aftershow between two days of the festival.

 

Said I wasn’t doing any but instead got tickets to TFB and TAI… at presale, so I guess I lied.

 

Me trying to get Trio tickets at 10:01

 

yeah so much for canceling out conflicts during the actual fest...

 

Decided to sit out the aftershows — as much as I'd love to see Aaron West, I don't really want to be out until 1:00 AM.

 

Well, getting a trio ticket was a bust. If anyone has an extra let me know!

 

Maybe I'll hit up that Senses Fail show if "heavy ass deep cuts" is 50% Renacer and Thorns

Through in a Bayonet song or two, Buddy, cmon

 

He mentioned the set being a lot of those two albums plus the hits. It’s not Bayonet stuff lol

 

Oh I know, that last part was mostly a joke but I just put this Bayonet EP on while I'm working and it's reminding me how great it is

 

I’m not even that old but I’ve learned over the years I cannot do an aftershow and then get up the next day and do a full fest day, no matter what the festival is haha. In a dream world I wish aftershows could happen, just like, not after a full day of a music festival and so late in the night but that’s the way it goes.
