Jam doesnt work at Firefly with that demo I was actually surprised they had Lettuce this year. I think it was Zen that mentioned he was able to meet someone from GV at the fest this year and said something like they are willing to book whoever will draw/sell.
This is also on Zen's shoulders now. I just hope there isn't insider beef with GV and certain artists who would reject an offer to play at a GV-affiliated festival. Example) Apparently Tommy Lee and Deadmau5 due to some helicopter incident are banned from Coachella. Does that apply to all GV affiliates.
Don't you put that voodoo on me Ricky Bobby. That was Matt, not me.
Royal blood needs to be there probs one of my favorite shows at acl.
RTJ always good.
Chance the rapper would be great to get back. Seeing him yesterday makes me sad he missed HOF in 2014. Great energy at that show and he would have only made that year even greater then it already was.
tame impala was sick and I really hope they cross over with HOF kinda like foster the peeps did
Fuck cherub.
21pilots was decent, they can return if need be.
Whoa whoa whoa. Gotta stop you on the fuck Cherub there. One of the favorite bands.
Just got back from Louderthanlife Fest in Louisville. Going to write a review here because you like music and fests and no one really cares about this one. Haha. They topped 50k total for the weekend which was almost double the previous year. We still got a pretty good spot for most every band we wanted to see. Cheap tickets, cheap camping, cheap drinks and food, cheap merch. Well run fest for a second year festival. There were a ton of hillbillies there. And I'm talking like backwoods Kentucky hills hillbillies. It was quite interesting but everyone partied hard and mostly respected eachother. Port-a-johns were clean all weekend and they even quickly refilled the TP. They extra activities were great and I spent a good bit of time in "Bourbon World". Something I never would have gone to musically if a buddy and Shell didn't really want to go.
It was in the 40's with whipping wind and pouring rain all day Friday and Saturday. Like a winter hurricane. Camping was an adventure but we had a blast and had some awesome neighbors. The grounds were flooded for fest open Saturday morning so they delayed the gates from 11 to 1. They did an absolutely beautiful job of dealing with the flooding. Mulch was brought in by the truckload and the grounds were manageable Saturday. It then turned 78 and sunny for Sunday which was perfect.
On to the music. Saturday I saw Red Sun Rising, Trivium, Hollywood Undead, Seether, Chevelle, Godsmack and Rob Zombie. Godsmack blew the fest away and that is not my normal type of thing. Best show of the weekend. Chevelle and Seether were also pretty good. Hollywood Undead was a lot of fun watching the people go crazy over this rap-rock stuff. Rob Zombie was probably one of the worst live acts I have ever seen. We left about half way though to go back and party at the campgrounds. It was atrocious. Probably not a single band Saturday of note for Hangout as you would expect given this lineup.
Sunday I saw Whiskey Myers, All Them Witches, Hinder, Skid Row, Collective Soul, Black Stone Cherry from the back, Three Doors Down, Breaking Benjamin, Slash with Myles, Skynyrd, Shinedown and ZZ Top. I love ZZ Top so that was awesome and all the metalheads left so we basically walked right up to the stage by the end of their set. Collective Soul actually put on a pretty good show. People seemed into it. Skid Row was fun but their singer is horrible. Like real bad. Slash was amazing. Such a fun set.The rest were ok to some point. I mentioned Whiskey Myers after Peach Fest as a possible Hangout band and we caught them. They were the first band up Sunday as they were at Peach and rocked it. The crowd loved it which was odd given the makeup on this fest. We ended up running into them later in the day and Shell got pictures with them and I chatted with them about some fests and having seen them at Peach Fest. Got some signed pictures as well. Great guys.
I know a lot of non-Hangout related info. One thing I really liked was they were using drones to shoot footage of the crowd and bands instead of those giant camera arms that Hangout uses that block half the stage. The site lines were great. Thought this was a real good idea.
1/17 Spafford 2/7 Greensky Bluegrass 3/17 Cool Cool Cool 3/28 Ekoostik Hookah 7/10 Jason Mraz 7/11 Chris Stapleton 7/12 Red Hot Chili Peppers 7/13 Buffalo Ska Fest
After seeing them recently I would def welcome them back onto a beach stage. I never seen them at the fest other than the As People Of The Sun set. They usually drop a hint or 2 early in the game i recall they gave us the Flips 2 years ago and MMJ last year (and later Future Islands)
Checked last year's thread. November 16th was when they Instagrammed/Facebooked the Jim James picture. Hope they keep that trend up. I believe the Wayne pic in 2013 (for 2014 fest) was even earlier.

Then having an active twitter is a good sign. Funfunfun, sts9 and frank turner is all I got too look forward to for the next few months til SXSW. (Actaully, that makes me excited). Gonna save mad loot.
Levitation offering a sneal peak to their line up was super satisfying.

I guess I should reword that to fuck cherub live. That's what I meant to say. what a waste of a walk that was.
Thought the same thing Juggz. If that was somewhere in the vicinity of Hangout sure but I'm sure we're out for them. Bodes well for Roo though. Chicago on the 10th, Sunday closer at Roo? Matches up nicely.
Lolla lineups are out for the south american fests. Last year that wasn't much overlap other than Major Lazer, Skrillex, and Foster The People. Maybe we'll get a band or 2 from the 2/3 lines. Tame Impala, 21 Pilots, and Of Monsters & Men all feel like they're coming to the beach this year.

Smith plans to rekindle his connection with DJ Jazzy Jeff on a massive tour next summer, likely celebrating the 30-year anniversary of their debut Rock The House, which set them up for a meteoric takeover of a still fledgling rap game.

The Cure just announced a 2016 tour, already rumored for 'Roo. I'd lose my mind if they show up on the beach.
lulz
To be fair, they were surprisingly (to me) good at ACL and Voodoo. I never much liked that eyeliner and messed up hair recycled goth-horror scene back then though I respected Robert Smith. give me D. Boone, Jello Biafra, Mike Muir, Dave Dichter or Joey Shithead in that era. Goth was soft. Poseur shit for the depressed kids who didn't fit into the hair metal scene. Hardcore > all that shit circa mid-80s
Speaking of soft, and this will only matter to me, but no way is Hangout going to have a midcard edm/jam lineup like last year. GRiZ, Gramatik, Keys N Krates, Break Science, Adventure Club, Odesza, Beats Antique, Umphreys, Galactic w/ Macy, all those sets ruled. I feared house at voodoo and they delivered this year. Blah. Hangout eventually will have a house overkill lineup as well. Hopefully not 2016, but....
