Nice! Such a fantastic venue, love how the floor is slanted so it makes easier to see if your not up the front. Also love of their isn't a barrier in front of the stage. I remember seeing Explosion In The Sky there front row just completely enamored what was going on a foot away from me. The Southern is a pretty cool, intimate venue as well. Im seeing The Lone Bellow in 2 months there! I wish Harrisonburg had music venues like that, but honestly it's def worth the road trip from JMU.
Right on. I go to Radford, in my four years here we have had one act that I was interested in (Matisyahu). VT gets a good show every once in awhile (Old Crow Medicine Show last semester, Passion Pit about a year ago). UVA gets all the good shows it seems, lucky for me one of my closer friends goes their.
Radford is a blast everytime I've been! Whats your major? And yeah JMU gets decent acts for their Spring events but I wish there was a venue that gets consistent shows. Lately JMU has had a huge rap streak which is disappointing. The past two years have been Juicy J and Macklemore, before that we had Passion Pit and then The Lumineers played my freshman year to like 30 people before they were big. But yeah Tech gets a lot of great people coming through, last semester Chance the Rapper came and I think Aziz Anzari another semester. But UVA takes the cake simply because they had a student organized Run The Jewels show at The Jefferson, The Antlers 3 semesters ago, and Phoenix last fall.
I think we could see Wiz Khalifa as one of our hip hop acts. He's on tour with Fall out boy this summer June 18 - Darien Center, NY - Darien Lake Performing Arts Center June 20** - Bangor, ME - Darling’s Waterfront Pavilion June 23 - Saratoga Springs, NY - Saratoga Performing Arts Center
The Bangor date is Fall out Boy only so he has a nice gap that would make sense for Firefly. If the Snoop rumors are true and its a Wiz/Snoop set that could be fun.

The tour gap is certainly large enough for him to swing down to DE for the weekend of Firefly, but that show in Camden, NJ, the previous weekend makes me think he is less likely. He also has a show in Columbia, MD, the weekend after Firefly. Amnesia Rockfest (in Montebello, Quebec, CA) is that weekend, and if they're diversifying the lineup to include rap/hip-hop this year (like Riot Fest did last year), I wonder if he'll be there instead.
People who actually think Taylor Swift will be at firefly because Firefly posted a video of a Dover police officer dancing to Shake it Off make me laugh.

So Forecastle is giving their lineup a week before Firefly, yet it is roughly a month after Firefly.
I know in the big picture it's nothing to get upset about it...buts it's ticking me off. The only reason I'm holding off on getting a Shaky Knees ticket is just in case there some crossover with the lineup (The Strokes, Tame Impala, TVOTR, Kasier Chiefs, The Kooks) which I think is unlikely.

On the other hand, consider Sasquatch. Their festival dates are May 22-25, and they haven't announced their lineup yet. If your concern is too much overlap with Shaky Knees, I wouldn't worry too much. I don't think there will be significant overlap between the two. A good number of the Shaky Knees acts will probably be in Europe during Firefly weekend anyway.
just go look at tour dates and try to get a feel for who could be where.
The Strokes, Kaiser Chiefs, TVOTR, Tame Impala, and The Kooks don't have anything scheduled yet for that weekend. I don't think there will be much carry over...but I am going to wait and make sure.
I'm still not sold on this Killers and Kings Of Leon rumor. The Killers seem so out of place to headline a festival. Maybe in the past yes, but recently NO WAY. It would be great if this Launchpad figure was wrong and brought back to reality.

Oh right, forgot about you....the dude with Killer posters all over his bedroom. Make sure you get there super early so you can be front row. Maybe Brandon Flowers will make eye contact with you.

Did Brandon Flowers piss in your Cheerios or something?
Yo Launchpad. i just got a call for Jury Duty today and the kids at work must be drinking mountain dew for breakfast because they're off the walls. Please give me a confirmed undercard to help me make it through the week.

awww don't get too upset he proved you wrong.
Haha, why use facts and logic to support your opinion when you can just hurl personal insults instead?
