So once the last two free ticket february announcements are made, is that the entire line up? I'm sold either way, I just don't know how many artists usually play.

 

The rest of the lineup will get announced on March 1st.

 

They'll announce a few regional bands and a bunch of locals on March 1

 

There will probably be about 10-15 more regional/touring acts and another 30-40 locals.

 

10-15?! I've never remembered it being more than like 5.. I'm all about that though

 

I mean, I don't predict any HUGE bands getting announced after the drop, but there'll probably be a good amount of smallish touring bands (like 5k-10k FB like size, if that makes sense?)

 

So for the regional acts you guys are talking like bands from the Michigan area who have a pretty solid following, but aren't huge? Like would American Opera be similar to what you're talking about?

 

Maybe not all from Michigan, but stuff like that, yeah!

For the record, I'm totally speculating from year's past, haha.

 

72 bands total.

 

Gotcha that makes more sense.

I'm stoked for Wednesday

The Island of Misfit Toys

 

Shortly got announced today.

 

She's a local Michigan singer-songwriter who is extremely talented.

 

I WON FREE TICKET FEBRUARY TODAY

 

Shortly is absolutely incredible.

RIYL: Julien Baker, Angel Olsen, feeling feelings

 

Hoping for a big one today

 

Anyone remember who the final band announced was last year?

 

I don't remember last year, two years ago it was Real Friends who ended up being the "headliner"

 

It looks like La Dispute is the "headliner" as of right now.

 

Yeah I don't see that changing

 

I think Sorority Noise?

 

With the Mobo tour getting canned, that's not a bad guess.

 

Unfortunately they're playing Patchwork in Saginaw two weeks before so they can't play. Same goes for Alex G, Nothing, Cloakroom, and a few other bands.

 

Cayetana, awesome
