ill take some shaky beats additions but i'm meh on shaky knees... hangout imo has enough bands already and is sorta lacking edm/jam compared to past years.
How many artists does Shaky Knees have compared to Hangout?
Hangout has about (my count) 73 on lineup today. Add in about 10 more for pre-party and you are at 85 which is the average for Hangout plus pre-party. Shaky Knees advertising 75 performers.
My question for Shaky Knees experienced attendees is...can you get a decent hotel room, parking, etc., within walking distance and enjoy the vibe, music, food, etc for less than $2,500? Does not sound like they have VIP and photos look like it is more packed in than Hangout. Anyone have a crowd comparison i.e. how many tickets sold and size of venues?
A lot of this just comes down to personal preferences. I like the beach a lot, sun, pool, seafood, etc., vibe. I live close enough to Bonnaroo to drive over everyday and not enough to buy a $400 ticket after going to Hangout...there is a lot of crossover. Might change this year, but there has been a lot of crossover. Shaky Knees is close enough to home, I like Atlanta, just need a little more insight. I wanted to see OCMS last year and have begun to take more notice of Shaky Knees. Don't care for any of the performers BBS listed, so curious how they move folks around and schedule acts. Hangout has hit and missed on the scheduling.

I would say that Hangout has the better lineup (over Shaky Knees). I believe that the love for Shaky Knees lineup comes from the disdain for the HOMF lineup. My Morning Jacket is the lone swap out, in the first few lines, that I would love to have back at Hangout. To each their own though.
I have a feeling that Foals will be in the Passion Pit/Foster the People slot on Sunday.

...it's at a new, larger site this year(centennial)....I don't think there have been more than 20-25k attendees so far...I've never felt over crowded....less than$2,500? my gosh, I hope so...shouldn't be close to that....you can pretty much stay anywhere and use marta or uber/lyft....and they do have vip..I think the early bird vip was just $400, but it jumps. how the site handles rain is the big question...didn't do well @ 420 last year.

SK has a focused booking strategy compared to the throw it all in the pot booking most fests do.

Its only a few weeks after 420 Fest and I got a hotel a block from the park for $210 including all fees for 420 through a Priceline Express Deal for Friday through Monday. Im sure you could do it it much cheaper than $2500.
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
Mainstage Sunday I have Isbell > Foals > Flo. Grimes on the Surf at 5pm. Big Grams on the Palladia at 7:30. Still working on it but I am liking where its heading....
dont conflict Foals and Big Grams, that would sting
I have Foals at 6:15. Big Grams at 7:30. Still tinkering for the Sunday closer on the Surf stage. I have the Shakes closing it down on Saturday night. Might slide them back to Sunday on the surf stage opposite Big Grams on the Palladia stage.

I give up trying to upload this spreadsheet. This website really is the worst when it comes to simple file upload. Why does it have to be a URL? Even tried uploading the jpeg.

Free boards don't have storage and thus require you to host elsewhere. Shall we Live Nation it all up in here and charge a "Locally Hosted Photo" fee...shoot we would clean up in Now Playing alone!

Not really. I think we get some1 in the 4th lineish and then a few obscure ones. I could see us having a bigger pre party tho. With the reduced price for 3 day ga's, they may ask for more but put together a pricier preparty.

Let the massacre begin. I agree that the weekend can be moved to the Moon Taxi time slot. This is a really rough start here and probably need to move around some people.
edit: right off the bat, I have phases twice. I didn't delete the first spot on the Hangout stage for the ZEW radio winner.
Does anybody think there is a more than 10% chance that HO has a top 6 add?
I have this twindling idea that Weeknd gets bumped to the Sam Smith slot and we Arcade Fire.
I think I read somewhere that he won't play any festivals now unless he's billed No. 1. I could be wrong, but I'm 90% sure I saw that somewhere and then immediately closed my laptop in disgust.

Leave him #1 on the poster and let him open the fest on Friday!
