Riot Fest 2024 Tour • Page 155

on the bright side, the rain that was kicking around for friday seems to have disappeared.

 

As much as I don't want y'all to deal with rain - fuck, we need it. This city stinks.

 

If it has to rain one day… Sunday’s the day for it to happen.

So long as lightning stays away? Just bring a poncho and enjoy.

 

Damn at least Sunday is the worst day, but I still definitely need to see the op ivy set, fiddlehead and nofx

 

yeah late sunday is already gonna be a mess for me between soco, sublime and the last nofx show. i guess sunday is a poncho and shoes i dont mind ruining kinda day.

 

Last year it soaked everything so bad without there really being lightning to the point they had to wait hours to open.

 

Get Crudos or Dance Club Massacre to replace Bright Eyes.

 

I mean, yeah, that too. But a bit of rain is fine.

 

Saturday updated. They just bumped up a few bands it looks like. No Bright Eyes replacement.

 

No new bands. Just a revised schedule. Because of the change I’m now getting 4 full sets in return so I’m not that upset.

 

Not the Waxahatchee - Pavement conflict

 

That change mostly works well for me. I can show up a little later and still catch Liquid Mike, and no more D4/Basement conflict. I was just going to see a few Pavement songs before heading over to Bright Eyes anyway, so a different conflict there doesn't sting too much.

 

This opens up Manchester Orchestra for me (sorry, Sincere) but means if I watch all of Basement which is a huge priority, I lose out on half of St Vincent which is a bummerrrr

 

Wish D4 moved down or up lol glad basement moved though

 

Schedule change does not affect me, except for I was looking forward to listening to clutch while I waited between the armed and sincere engineer

 

They should have added MJ Lenderman to replace Bright Eyes, he’s already going to be there with Waxahatchee, having a breakout year, and both his Chicago shows at Thalia Hall are already sold out.

 

Is he confirmed as playing with her on these dates?

Edit: I don't think he will be joining her, Americana Fest seems to be a one off.

 

Same

 

Suffering of FOMO starts now, hope to make it to Riot Fest next year. ENJOY!

 

Here we go! Leaning towards just staying at the main stages for Offspring to get a good spot for FOB, but that’s still a game time decision.

Wearing a black Signals Midwest shirt and blue Swellers backpack, say hi if you see me!

 

Wasn’t planning on going this year and was kinda bummed about it. Saw their email contest last night about winning last second tickets. Replied to it 30 minutes before the contest ended. Got the tickets.

bout to start my drive. See you all there!

 

Have fun, be safe, and watch Drug Church, everyone!

 

Waxahatchee will tour again. Who knows if Pavement will

 

Last night at the NFG show I was stressing about how bad my back will feel today but they were so good that I realized I forgot how good the music is going to be.

I have a full day of sets and then I am going to the Basement aftershow. Going to be rough but fun. At least I don't have to walk a lot form one side of the park to the other, that will surely help.

Planning on skipping Hot Mulligan to get a late lunch. Stopping at Walmart on the way to get some ponchos lol. These were lifesavers the past few years.

Have fun, everybody! Drink a lot of water and stay safe.

 

Excited for all of you starting your weekends! Gonna be a hot one today and tomorrow.
