So no one really responded to this earlier, any info on 311? The fact that they haven't played this fest yet is dumbfounding to me. I know theyre not for everyone, but it'd be awesome to see them on the beach. I feel like theyd fall in that 4-5 line range too where Hangout could use a more recognizable name.
They are playing Beale Street, so I would say that it's at least possible.
Sooooo in happier news I'm nursing a hangover from past hangout performers last night KOL and Gary Clark jr!!!
Saw them in Nashville on Friday. Gary Clark has become a can't miss act! And KoL showed some teeth- pulling out trani, and true way home made me happy! I think it was an awesome arena show- very impressed.

I would like to see them. They are playing in New Orleans 3/10 and 3/11 and if they play Beale Street as well is that too much in the area for Hangout to consider them?

I'm a huge threv fan, but I doubt they would be at hangout. While I love them, I don't see them being a draw for anyone ticket wise. I think they'd be dropped w the regular lineup. They've been around forever and have a good following, but the following is small. Just the lack of groundbreaking material over the past 10-15 years would make them kinda blah for most people. It's also right after 311 day, so... Not sure how that would affect the chances? Hope they do come, they would be sweet in the Moe. slot from last year, or the Bloc Party slot, or on the beach in the imagine dragons slot. Actually, they'd put on a better show than all 3 of those band sets from last year combined, IMO.
While they seem to be keeping the jam out, they seem OK with the funk. Robert Randolph and the Family band is free that weekend according to there website. I'd love that addition.

Had a good draw when they played Deluna a few years back... That's a bit relative, since Deluna was pretty much a trainwreck from the jump, but I seem to remember they did well there. They've also played Orange Beach at The Wharf (3-4 years ago... draw looked to be about 4-5,000ish) and Pensacola a few times in the past 10 years (seem to nearly fill out that arena). I don't know how 3/11 day in NOLA would affect draw, since they draw from all over the country for that, but I can't imagine it's a good sign... They do have a new album coming out though, so maybe they're going super heavy on the touring... I'd love to see them at hangout for sure!

Trying to get a feel of what to expect at Hangout. I've been to Roo a few years, Lolla, Summer Camp, Bamboozle, Summer Set and a couple other Chicago fests. I get annoyed with Lolla for ending at 10pm and I know Hangout ends at 11pm, but I'm hoping the beach is just a great experience and makes up for it. Are there after shows or anything for late night? Does security/police just push people away after the festival ends? Can you just kick it on the beach or is that not cool?

When it's over, it's over. You'll have to get outta there. There's no late shows because there's nowhere in Gulf Shores venue wise to host them.

So what do people do after? Hit a local bar? Head to their place and party or sleep?
There is a lot of hanging out/partying on the beach, partying in the condo(s), some local bars. I know the Pink Pony (right next to the fest) was packed every night after the venue closed. Personally, I will hit the Flora-Bama Thursday night most likely, then stick to the beach and condo with maybe a stop in for one or two at the bars around the fest on the way back to the condo.

Cops actually cleared the beach one night where we were staying last year because some crazy hippies decided to have a pretty gnarly fireworks show around 12:30.

Lighthouse condos? That made me mad. After party on the beach is half the fun. If anyone sees this, shut it down.

You're gonna have to leave the beach, exit the fest, and u-turn back onto the beach for some parties. The shore line is closed off inside the fest also, so the only way to hit the water is from outside the fest before or after. It usually takes a bit of time to get home. So by the time I'm home, showered, w a drink in my hand, it's after midnight. We usually hit the waves at that point. Bring some cool people with or plan on networking when you get here to find a party close to your house. Hope that helps some..

Yup. Lighthouse. That place gets wicked fun at night. The light shows that the dudes shine from the balcony onto the beach is some of the best eye candy I've ever witnessed.

Thanks for the input everyone. We'll have fun with our group alone, but joining new groups is half the fun. Looking forward to meeting some cool peeps out there! Also...we're staying about a mile east of 59 which seems to be the edge of nothingness. Is everything to the west? Are we gonna not want to hang around our place?
A mile down is the edge of the park, which is well....a park. Most the the bars and night life stuff is just east of the gate. There should be condos down there to party in front of. The Lighthouse which was mentioned is about .7 miles east.

Why aren't you guys more excited that RAC (Remix Artist Collective) is there? That's a pretty awesome get for Hangout - probably the coolest booking on the lineup this year.
I do not know much about these guys, besides what I just read on Wikipedia. What else do you know about them? Have you seen them live?

Nice! To be honest, I hadn't noticed they were on there. I was just talking about them with a friend last week. I had never heard of them but I started to notice that every remix that I really liked on Spotify had RAC after it. So I Googled "RAC" to see what it was and read up on them. That was after I looked through the Hangout lineup, which is why I didn't notice them on there. Thanks for pointing them out. I'm adding them to my schedule now.
I noticed them, but have no previous knowledge. I just googled them too. So, it's just 1 guy now, does that mean this is a dj set? Is this going to be girl talkish? I'm so confused.. Off to YouTube...
Holy crap that fest looks sweet for a single day deal. Wonder what the tix price is.
Foster would be a HUGE get for me. And I think they'd fit well in the time slots we're all thinking should get some adds. Edit: they have Wild Cub added now, too. Yet another crossover... I think you're onto something here Zen.
