Tour Prediction and Speculation Thread Tour • Page 41

Man, Beartooth is unreal good live

 

I'm going Wednesday, I bought like 7th row tickets when they went on sale just because I knew if I was going to be there all day I might as well be sitting.

 

I didn’t know 18+ from scene queen was about all time low til tonight. Whole crowd knew but me apparently.

 

I got pit tickets for Summer of Loud's West Wisconsin date for free basically, lol.

A Minneapolis-area record store was giving away lawn tickets on Instagram, and they had several pairs to distribute, so unsurprisingly I won. Then as soon as I got to the venue, my friends told me there was was a lady walking around the venue handing out free ticket upgrades to anyone who asked, so after about 20 mins of hunting I found her and got a pit pass.

It was a super fun show, but yeah definitely feel like the lack of a real big ticket "headliner" hurt ticket sales. Also I think having an all-day traveling festival on weekdays isn't really viable, anymore. Now that Warped Tour is over I don't think "the scene" is capturing the high school summer break audience ever again, and they certainly aren't with Killswitch Engage and Parkway Drive lol.

I think if they tried it again, it'd work if they only did the full-day fest on Fridays-Sundays in major markets, and then then did a scaled down 5pm-11pm version in other cities. If they got a slightly bigger name like Bad Omens, Spiritbox or A Day To Remember to headline it'd sell like hotcakes.

 

Scowl/Sunami co headliner being announced I guess this week
