After my mean post to Kings Of Leon a few pages back... I will be nice.
I have established a tolerable set list for you:
Joe's Head Genius Taper Jean Girl Soft Crawl (their best song IMO) Manhattan Revelry On Call Camaro Back down south Beach Side (Just cause the name) I want you Pyro
Eh-core: Sex on fire ( why not ) Notion
They have some songs with good basslines and cool sounds. I am never really a fan of his voice, wish it was distorted or something.
also on spotify it says related bands: MGMT ummmm....
I'm pretty sure it all depends on the third headliner. Advance tickets will sellout without that name, but not all of regular GA.
The beach sells this fest. Not the headliners. That's my opinion, and i'm sticking to it.
Then why is DeLuna fest being cancelled after having a lineup better than hangout's last year? Apparently people would rather go to Hotlanta and see waaay less bands than go to a beach fest. Hotels in p'cola were WAAAAAAYYY f'n cheaper than gulf shores and surrounding areas too.

Curious as to how in the world you think that? Unless you like the undercards a ton.

Because DeLuna is in September and school starts backs. hangout is right after school lets out.
Plus, Pensacola island sucks. You're basically stranded on that small island.

Everything is as true as it gets, but better lineup? Huh?

Arguing about who had the better lineup with people that either: (1) only went to one of either hangout or DeLuna (2) is younger than 30 (3) didn't go to many fests last year besides hangout (oblivious to the festival whore artists of 2012) (4) or are simply huge fans of RHCP and DMB (5) only post in the hangout thread on infroroo, have the word hangout in their username, etc (6) are incapable of listening to reason is a waste of my mawfawkin time. It'd be like the equivalent of trying to talk one of my cats into doing the dishes. roll tide?
The fact is that my biased opinion is better than most everyone else's here.

I'm going to Hangout this year - for the first time - with a group of 6-7 people, and we have a condo within walking distance. That said/written, I've been visiting this thread nearly non stop for a while, and it's kind of a box of suck. The DeLuna vs. Hangout stuff, on the day Hangout dropped its lineup, reinforces that feeling for me.

Personally, I'm excited about this year - and hopefully they fill out the lineup with some solid adds. I don't have blinders on, meaning I recognize this isn't the greatest lineup ever, but for me it it's solid with the potential to get even better.
But really, Public Enemy?? As much as I'd love to hear something a rant about Jews and Gays.... no thanks.....it is 2013 isn't it? Get this garbage out of here.
Way too over the top, amateur trolling
1/10
Right right, guess they've never said anything about my people, like we are behind all evil in the world. Or support Farrakhan. Don't let the music blind you. I'd say the same sh*t about Morrissey too. Good music and shitty worldviews don't balance each other out.

Don't worry. Once you get there, take your shoes off, grab a beer and park yourself in front of a stage this will all be forgotten. Then, on Sunday night, when the fireworks are going off you're going to think "holy shit, i wonder who will be here next year. i can't wait."

Anyone else book already? I booked Phoenix suites west (not to be confused with some other phoenix place that was 5 miles away) which is .5 miles from the beach. Should be an 8 minute walk and it was cheaper than their travel packages with 4 people.

Nice! The place I always book through Meyer is less than $150/night after fees and split with 3-4 other people it's less than $50/night per person. It's an older 2 br place and not exactly the nicest condo, but it's a just over half a mile (less than a 10 min walk) to the fest site and just a quick stroll across the street to the beach by Sea N Suds where there's always late night beach parties after the fest! Not to mention it's next to Waffle House.

I had a lot of fun at Deluna last year, and the lineup wasn't even that great. Other than the headliners, this lineup is way better from top to bottom. There's a lot of stuff I want to see here:
Kings of Leon TAB The Black Crowes Slightly Stoopid Ellie Goulding Bloc Party Gov't Mule Jim James Public Enemy moe. The Revivalists Anders Osborne (missed at Deluna) The Bright Light Social Hour
And those are just the ones I haven't seen! The Shins, Bassnectar, The Roots, Passion Pit, Galactic, Grouplove, Moon Taxi, and twenty one pilots are all bands that I know bring it live too. I wouldn't mind seeing Tom Petty too, but since he's gonna be at Roo too, I might skip him. They have others on during HL'ers right? Hopefully they put Bassnectar on at the same time. I'm gonna try to get some friends to go, volunteer, and get a cheap hotel. College kids can only afford so many fests.

Yeah, staying at the regatta. First condo next to the fest going east. PUMPED!
It doesn't look like there will be more than a handful of additions based on the number of acts in the initial lineup. Just my .02.
It's hard to know for sure, because I just did a quick count and there was quite a bit of variance in number of acts between 2011 and 2012. 2012 had 51, and 2011 had 64. We're right around 50 right now. I'd guess just the added headliner and some comedians.
Something worth noting: the last two lines of this year's lineup are very small. Those are the kind of bands they announced late last year to play the small stage inside of the Hangout restaurant. Most of those 5th stage bands never made the poster, and they aren't even listed on the Past Lineups page (including Space Capone, who is actually on the poster this year). Last year's full count was actually 59 if you include those bands, and that's without the kid performers. Here's last year's schedule for reference: lineup.hangoutmusicfest.com/events/2012/05/20/
There will still probably be 10 or so additions. It's also possible they ditched the kids stage and will be running smaller bands inside the Hangout all day. I would be happy with that, because a lot of those lower tier acts are pretty solid. It would be nice to catch Chancellor Warhol or Space Capone while someone like Slightly Stoopid is playing a beach stage.

They only had an act on another stage during Jack White (STS9) and RHCP (Shpongle) last year. DMB (the sunday headliner which is what Petty will most likely be) went unopposed.

Staying at Island Winds West, which is about 20 yards from the front gate, going west into Gulf Shores. It was super convienent last year. And if we got tired, we could hear the main stage fine from our balcony.
