Looks like my wife and I will be attending again this year. Canadian dollar bounced back a touch. Beach, music, booze and food I'm in despite the lineup. With the price increase I think we get some additions right around April Fools. Even if they removed a stage the numbers don't seem to add up. Unless they have 2 contest winners? Sure hope they keep that restaurant stage open. Any more news on Zika?
Would be so mean I they used April fools to tease additions.
They've basically ignored everyone's q's which is disconcerting. I could totally see them being pricks and saying "You thought we wouldn't have adds? April Fools!!!" Although if the additions are like last years I might barf.
Both are alt/punk bands. Caught Broncho at FFF, aside from their one single w the catchy "Doo doo doo"s it was ok. The lead singer's voice is very weird, whiney and almost annoying live.

Health kind of has an annoying singer 2 imo. Just can't get into them...

last years count was 74 artists not including the malibu. This year the site shows 72 and we know 4 of those are in the Bu tent so that means 68 acts for stages. thats six short and seems like the perfect amount of adds. six + a bigger name = 75 artists. make it so.
Sxsw is over. Tomrrow there is still some showcases and a softball game, but I head back to work. I missed a lot of shit but it was an otherwise hell of a 10 days.

I would guess that if the behavior happened again, the effect and enforcement would return. Six months in jail and/or $500 is pretty stiff. I would guess that Hangout Security would be sufficient within the concert area of the beach, but Gulf Shores may ban alcohol on the beaches outside the festival grounds. I would also bet the condos beef up security. Someone was shooting in the air at SXSW last night which probably didn't help the festival folks arguing for less security.
Good Palm Sunday friends. Looks like we are at #60, The Revivalists. Hangout is getting closer day by day. The Revivalists are an American rock/soul band formed in New Orleans in 2007. The 7-piece band consists of Ed Williams (Pedal Steel Guitar), David Shaw (Vocals), Zack Feinberg (Guitar), Rob Ingraham (Saxophone), George Gekas (Bass), Andrew Campanelli (Drums), and Michael Girardot (Keys/Trumpet). The group's freshly interesting sound is best described by David Fricke of Rolling Stone as "a Crescent City-rhythm spin on jam-band jubilee. The Revivalists got their start during jam sessions at New Orleans club Tipitina’s Sunday Music Workshops where guitarist Zack Feinberg and drummer Andrew Campanelli first met. The band found their frontman David Shaw by pure luck when Feinberg rode past Shaw singing a song called “Purple Heart” on his front porch. The two struck up a conversation and got together later that day to jam. Eventually they got their shot at Checkpoint Charlie after passing an open mic audition at that Esplanade Avenue dive bar/laundromat, forming an early version of the band within a week when they decided an official name was needed for their kickoff show at Tipitina’s in New Orleans. Today, their members also include Ed Williams (pedal steel guitar), Rob Ingraham (saxophone), George Gekas (bass) and Michael Girardot (keys/trumpet).
Comments? I'm all in for the Revivalists. If not on the front row, I'll be close. Jason Isbell would be the only conflict of concern for me.
Im down for rail for Revivalist. Ban on alcohol could be real, but probably would effect a private event held on the beach a la Hangout.
I think the ban ends on April 17
"During a special meeting on Friday, the Gulf Shores City Council unanimously adopted an ordinance to prohibit the possession or consumption of alcoholic beverages along the entire Gulf beaches within city limits. The ban is in effect through April 17. "
Whoa...Saturday morning and we are at #61 on our countdown. "Givers (stylized as GIVERS) are an indie pop group from Lafayette, Louisiana. The band is made up of vocalist and percussionist Tiffany Lamson, vocalist and guitarist Taylor Guarisco, drummer and vocalist Kirby Campbell, bassist and guitarist Josh LeBlanc, and flautist, saxophonist, and keyboardist Nick Stephan. The band's origins date to Hurricane Katrina in 2005, which displaced Lamson and Guarisco from their New Orleans apartment and school, leading them to return to Lafayette with little to do. The duo began playing music together, and they recruited the other members shortly before a last-minute performance at a local pub in 2008. The band came together as the result of the unplanned, improvised jam." WIKI
"The members of Givers have previously performed in zydeco, jazz and Cajun groups. Following a touring stint with the Dirty Projectors and their debut 2009 EP, the band recorded their debut album and signed to Glassnote Records. The band's debut studio album, In Light, was released in June 2011 to favorable critical reviews." WIKI
Comments? Interesting group. I'll put them on my short list. Likely a restaurant stage band. Definitely a little quirky.
They opened the maing stage a few years ago at Hangout. I typically enjoy the first show of the day on one of the two beach stages. They were great that year, for the record.
so, if you go to back to back shows for three days you can watch about 24 shows. Out of the first 21 on the countdown, bottom of poster moving to top, I've got seven I want to see. Out of the next 21, I count ten more. Out of the next 21, I count ten more. Out of the top 11, I only want to see five. That is a total of 32 out of 74. Hoping for a fortunate schedule. 32 out of 74 would be well worth the price of a $209 ticket.
I did notice the ticket prices were $269 today. I did read that taxes and fees are included this year which is about a 10% lower ultimate ticket price. Going to $289 April 2nd. I noticed the pre-party doors open at 6:00 pm. I thought it was 4:00 last couple years. You should read "Terms and Conditions". They can throw you out for using vulgar language among other things. The ticket includes a hold harmless for "foreseable" set of conditions including fighting. LOL! I guess the attorneys had to chime in.
