Festival talk

so seems like a solid year for rumors.

No moe.down this year. Crazy to have the 25th anniversary with no .down.

Made it to 6 of them, had lots of great times, met lots of great people.

My home my heart my best friends.


Hope I didn't miss the last down ever
 
it defeats me why jack white isn't closing out coachella instead of Drake. his band is fucking unstoppable. can't wait for the sasquatch lineup to come out; that's the one i've got on my radar.

Wow, That pretty much tells ,e my feelings about what coachella has become are spot on.

Fuck that noise. That said there are a million people who will line up to throw their money away.

I wish I made it there while it was still good.
 
Just scored early bird tickets to Fuji Rock in July. No lineup announced yet, but it usually gets a great mix of western and Japanese acts.

moe. played a few years ago. I thought about going. If they do a another 4 show run I'm definitely there. I came close to making it in 2010 but the funds fell through.

Have fun!

The sunday night headliner normally is smaller than the Saturday night.

yes i know, what a thing to complain about. i'm just projecting the festival that i'd want to go to. there'd just be less hype on the last day which i feel like the whole weekend should lead up to. jack white is just sort of a dream headliner for me at least.

that is not necessarily true. 2013 closed with pretty lights -> wu tang clan -> red hot chili peppers.

theses are my opinions, i'm favored toward rock headliners.

You're right.

And I also agree with your opinions on rock headliners

I meant it was an odd problem to have because those headliners are.. well.... mainstream as fuck! Which is fine of course if that is what you're into. It was a bad joke. I just associate festivals with jam bands and hippies.. Not drake VS Jack White

oh ya i know what you mean. it's funny that festivals are already starting to wane on those sort of acts and bring more and more of an edm-heavy bill year after year.
 
Anyone know anyone who's been to the BPM festival? I watch the be-at tv stream every year and dream of going. 10 days of great parties with quality dj's and live acts around the beaches of Playa del Carmen. I need to seriously consider it for next year...

Just saw Twiddle and Kung Fu are coming to Irving Plaza April 3 so I'm there. Been wanting to see them since I missed both at Vibes
 
Haven't gotten any replies, which I'm not too surprised about, but I'm going to Luminosity this June in Amsterdam. Any tips for European/Trance (not EDM) festivals from people who've experienced them?
 
Just saw waka's final lineup and I'm pretty impressed. Might have to make my way out there this summer.

Also seeing lotus on Thursday and I can't wait, every lotus show I've been to has been exceptional.

Burlington? Seeya there
 
Evolve if you wanna get really fucked up with a bunch of hippies and hillbillys

skip to 5:09 for hippies and hillbillys

 
The last dead show got 60k envelopes mailed in for tickets so they cancelled the online pre-order apparently. Still hoping I get lucky and get tickets though.

If not Red Rocks has umphrey's and Papadosio on july 3rd

That's a sick alternative to have!

moe. is doing a couch tour this weekend and I will be attending Friday night! Also, rumors of their annual saranac brewery run for the third week of June with twiddle opening one night and lotus the other. I'm pretty stoked! I'm hoping moe. gets announced for Catskill Chill and Peach as well

word. i did sassy in 11 and 12 (because i'm a WA local) and it was radical.....i too have done brochella the last two Aprils and loved both years for entirely different reasons; but the magic is kind of gone for me. definitely not the same festival it used to be. only issue is there are nearly two dozen of my friends from WA that i talked in to getting chella tickets this year. they're going to be less than thrilled if i ditch them for Sassy, WTFestival, shambhala or burn...

Lotus is jamming man! This music is so fun live

Had a blast at their terminal 5 show last saturday. nice change to be able to dance hard for about 3 hours compared to how I usually have to pace myself for 8+ hours of dancing at a club
 
they are definetly on a run right now. both Burlington and hob boston were great shows. that higher ground scene kinda turned me off a little bit. alot of people coundnt handle their shit
 
I had lots of fun at the Higher Ground show. Don't remember looking at the crowd much. I thought night 2 was better than last year
 
hard not to see the 18 y/o bro hit the floor right infront of me. or the underage girls starting fights with security on the way in. smh

I haven't seen lotus in 3 years. Would like to catch them again sometime and see what they're up to.
 
The Friday night stream was awesome. Only caught the first set and part of the second because it was late on the east coast but that first set was heat. That George sandwich..!

Well they goofed hard. It's canceled or at the very least booted from it's spot. It's 2015. Ain't nobody got time for pseudo hippie bigots.
