I skipped a family gathering a few years ago to see them in a small place in Palatine, IL (right after COVID). It was totally worth it but I will probably not do that again.
i imagine they're slight underplays to try out new songs, etc. will be cool to see them in a small room again.
Yeah that Durty Nellie's show was very good. It's always nice when I don't have to drive to the city. Usually these shows are less crowded too.
Phoneboy cancelled an August run a few weeks back because of scheduling conflicts, looks like this run might have been part of it
I got excited seeing my local promoter post Militaire Gun logo and then I saw Bakersfield instead of Fresno and I went I hate it all lmao. this can’t keep happening to me
SLS in Chicago is just a few days after Riot Fest. Not sure I'll be able to swing it, as much as I'd love to see them at SubT.
I have week before and after riot fest embargo. I’m breaking it for Alex G, but sucks to have to miss this and Viagra Boys
The weekend after Riot is insane. Cartel, Godspeed, Mountain Goats, Callous Daoboys, and at least one other I’m forgetting are all here in a three day stretch.
Can confirm for offspring they just gave out tons of tickets to people in the lawn to move to 100 level. Pretty shitty process for people who buy seats for 200 level if you ask me instead of just pricing it to actually sell
this happened at the all American rejects show I was at a few years back. They were upgrading everyone from lawn and 500 to 300 for free. I was in the 400 so I just went in the line for the upgrade… they never asked to see my tickets.
Yeah last summer my friends and I literally walked from lawn into the 300s and no one cared. I'm hoping that's my luck for Simple Plan, which is selling similarly right now.
