THE FEST 15 Festival • Page 2

And the next announcement is only 3 weeks away!

 

Yesssss, I get to knock Latterman and Propagandhi off my bucket list this year, can't wait for the next announcement.

 

The lineups for the Pre-Fest and the actual Fest are so similar. Besides the fact that they are in different cities, what are the differences?

 

It's been years since I've seen Propagandhi, but they're so good live! Hoping for some more reunions in the next announcement.

 

All bands that play Pre Fest will also play Fest. Fest will just have a lot more bands that will be playing. Think Pre Fest is around 150 bands (2 days long) and Fest will have around 300 (3 days long). The headliners will be the same for the most part, "smaller" bands will be the main difference, if you will.

 

What reunions do you have in mind?

 

None in particular really, I'm just hoping for a few surprises. Though honestly, the lineup is so strong already that anything else is just a bonus.

 

Right? This could be the only announcement they made and I would be ecstatic. The fact that there are going to be possibly better bands getting added is just amazing. Such a great weekend this is.

 

The Fest is nothing if not predictable and consistently solid... But I keep hoping they'll pull something together that makes me want to go again, to deal with the schedule conflicts, venue-hopping, etc.

I went for four years straight a few years back and it was a fucking blast! But by the last year it felt like more of the same.

That being said? I hope everyone here who winds up going enjoys the fuck out of this, and goes out of their way to check out a few bands they've never seen or heard of before. I still owe some of my favorites to the first Fest I ever attended back in like, 2008.

 

Well this just got even better! Was spotted at Groezrock!

 

Omg Ergs reunion

 

So some of the blanks are...

Ergs! (reunion)
Dillinger Four
Lemuria
Masked Intruder
Mean Jeans
boysetsfire
F.Y.P.

 

solid lineup. still holding out hope for piebald and ps eliot

 

More bands announced on Friday.

 

The thing about Fest is, my friends always come back with stories that make me feel like if I went I might die.

 

I went by my self last year and basically died the first night so I don't doubt going with a group of friends would be worst

 

Pretty sure Belvedere is releasing a new album this year, would be sweet if they played this.
