Just wanted to say hello to all you Hangout peeps and vets! This is my first time posting on inforoo, but I have followed some threads in past years. I usually followed Roo, but just recently realized there are other fests on here. Wow, right? This will be my third year attending out of the last four. I missed last year due to the gf and a bunch of friends wanting to attend Roo for their first time. Needless to say, it was great! But I want yall to know that I really enjoy reading all your posts, and am looking forward to this year as well! I am not VIP like I'm assuming many of you are? But it would be great to meet some of you @ HOF! Sorry for the long (maybe slightly boring) intro! Ha
Welcome!
Most of us I don't think are VIP but Sparky and Krisp are, right? I mean...we are all equally Important People but not in the eyes of the Hangout.
Anyways, Inhaler by Foals just came on...Im getting so hype I may dropkick the barista here in the Florida Keys because Foals....
Been to every Hangout so far, and I've never gone VIP. I imagine, after listening to Sparky, if I ever did I wouldn't go back. Ignorance is bliss, so they say...Having said that, regardless of your ticket type it's an awesome venue. You'll have a great time.

Thanks! I just figured most of you were, oops. But yes, yes we are. I was hoping to check Foals out but unfortunately I don't think I'll be able to pull the gf away from CH.. oh well, my schedule was full of conflicts from the get go. More so than any of the previous ummm..... 8 fests I've attended! Still gonna be great, regardless
chickinchickasaw Every one huh, wow! Yeah I would say VIP probably has its perks (drinks?!) but I really prefer to be mixed in with the crowd, as long as the vibes are nice wherever we may be. It is an amazing venue though. I prefer camping fests, but there's something about live music on the beach that continues to draw me back
It's funny, I've been lukewarm (at best) on this year's lineup since it dropped back in, what, 1996? But since I've scheduled it out, I've found fewer nap-gaps than most years, definitely last year. Also, I think that real world pressures have contributed to my looking forward to this reality break even more than most years. At any rate, the car is already packed, and ready to roll, May 18 can't get here quickly enough. Also, I'm not foolish enough to believe that gulf weather can be predicted 15 days out, but the weather channel app has me very hopeful!
jdstultz I have also been keeping an eye on the weather channel app as each day pops up on the end of the forecast. No doubt, you can't tell what the Gulf weather will bring, but the long range forecast sure is looking pretty! And you are accustomed to nap gaps? Haha I've never given myself that kind of time. BTW, Happy Mother's Day to any mothers in this thread!

I have to agree...even thought the lineup is "meh" at best, I have 3 days full of bands I want to see and will enjoy. I was surprised by how little "down time" I am scheduling myself, there is almost always someone I want to be jamming to from 1:30 to close. This has worked out pretty sweet.
I cast a vote for Foals in the tent opposite The Weeknd...
Revisiting some old posts and you done practically nailed it.
Edit: Randomly browsing this performance, there is never a dull moment. HoF has mad some weird moves but putting Foals to close the Boom Boom is one of the best.
At minute 30 through 35 shit just gets unreal. Hopefully they bring that light rigging and I won't think about Umphrey's lack of presence.

anyone else kicking around the idea of breaking up the RTJ and HEALTH sets to catch a bit of both? I know RTJ will kill but i've also seen them twice in the past year. HEALTH on the other hand im not sure when theyll pop up again.. Anyone catch their coachella set?

I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. My girlfriend hated it when I thought it would be more along her normal tastes.
Sorry to hear about the store. Been there a few times. It always works out man.

I have never see RTJ so no, I won't be splitting time with any other act during there set.

the only reason im even considering this is the VIP factor. Both start at 2:30 so i could maybe start at HEALTH for 15-20 minutes and then slide right up front in the vip at surf stage, since RTJ does have 15 minute longer set.

Pretty sure RTJ does a similar set list every show. If you've seen them twice already, I'd definitely put in some time for HEALTH.

yea. i know the show we saw at BUKU was identical to their ACL show minus the artist dropping in at acl.
So I have a question.. I am open to any thoughts or ideas. I have been trying to plan this for a few months now, but I'm still stumped on how to go about it. This will be our (gf & myself) 6th music fest together, so I think it is appropriate for me to pop that oh so special Q at some point that weekend. I already know her answer, so that wont be an issue. However, the timing & location is something I haven't figured out yet. I have debated whether to do it during a certain show, maybe just out in the open somewhere, or even having some new HoF friends involved somehow I know about the alter they already have there, but that is out of the question! If you all have any ideas, once again I would love to hear them. You can pm me or just reply here, whichever you prefer. Much love and thanks in advance!

Nice! I'll nominate the top of the ferris wheel at dusk.
