How does WSP keep headlining? are they a special case?
I guess because they keep on selling out big venues all over the south whenever they are on tour.
I can't speak for everyplace, but in Miami WSP is playing the same venue as MGMT, Phoenix, and LCD Soundsystem. I'd rank them at about the same level outside of bonnaroo. I guess they are probably a special case just because they're one of the biggest in the jam community?

They have been doing smaller multi night runs this tour. Three nights at the ryman etc... Last year they did a huge tour doing 25k venues. They are not my favorite band at all, but they are still pretty big.
But they didn't headline those big venues this tour. Could be a trend, pretty much guaranteed WSP wouldn't headline Bonnaroo now.
Yeah instead they are playing three and four night runs sold out at places like the Fox, and The Ryman, The Tennessee etc..... They would headline or LN Which if they came back guaranteed. Same thing with Furthur.

Last time I saw Jacket around here a few months ago(at Cary, NC, which is essentially a richer part of Raleigh), they played a 7000 capacity venue. And unless I'm mistaken, it didn't sell out.
