Figured I'd get the ball rolling on this since this is the main fest I'm concerned with for 2016 (aside from Yazzfest). Early bird tix are sold out already
Here's an early mock lineup:
DEAD & COMPANY x2 WIDESPREAD PANIC x2 Gregg Allman Butch Trucks Willie Nelson Gov't Mule Primus Rhythm Devils Leftover Salmon Anders Osborne Robert Randolph
So we have one badass sounding show announced so far! Butch says his new bands is playing the midnight set on Friday of Wanee. Fuckin' A! An Allman's jam on the Mushroom stage at night will be crucial.
The band is called Les Bres. " This includes (ABB rhythm section) Jaimoe, Oteil, Marc Quinones, and Jack Pearson (guitar in ABB 1997-99) and his guitar mate Pat Bergeson, Bruce Katz and Lamar Williams, Jr. (son of Lamar Williams, bass in ABB 72-76)"
And more importantly, what is Shortcut Camp's theme going to be?
Thanks for getting this ball rolling. Got my early bird tix already!! And SCC will be 8-bit this year.
I have been pushing for Alabama Shskes this year, but with them at Hangout, doubt that is going to happen and also i sm still holding out for Gary Clark Jr. But I would be happy with someone new, someone who has never been on the wanee lineup. Sturgil Simpson or Benjamin Booker.
I really hope so. I missed Ween there in 2011 because I let my ex talk me into leaving Wanee early (the fuck was I thinking) to drive to sketchy ass Oak Mountain for WSP. I did get to see Panic play New Speedway Boogie and Down on the Farm at least.
Been mad at myself for missing seeing my #3 fav band ever at my #1 fav venue ever. #redemption
Les Brers is Butch with other ABB and Jack Pearson. Basically the band from the noon set last year with a better guitar player.
Lineup is great except for the no Dead & Company thing! I guess they could get added but prob not. Irritated that a late night will prob be wasted on a Umphrey's McGee disco jockmetal wankfest.
FTW: WSMFP Gregg Les Brers Ashes & Dust Billy K STANLEY CLARKE Kung Fu NMO Bruce Hot Tuna w/ Kimock Dumpsta special set...
This lineup is pretty stacked with hetti shits.
plus...
THREE DAYS OF BOBBY LEE RODGERS TRIO!! The real reason we all go to Wanee!

Everywhere kept referring to Dead & Co's "first tour", did you notice that too? I took that as meaning they were gonna keep going. They should get John K and keep going since Mayer's got that adult-contemporary album to work on.
I think this lineup is more solid than this years, but they are similar. Stanley Clarke is going to be one set not to miss. Best bass old school bass player alive.
...I didn't understand not having JK for fare thee well! but I read an old interview where kreutzmann took a shot at him...maybe they wouldn't have played the stadiums without Trey?...i don't know if he's what took it to that level or not.
it's definitely not the same experience, but it's looking like the sw420f lineup will be more eclectic.

Really wish they got Primus.
Otiel hinted at a summer tour in an interview. Also have a buddy who works at a venue in upstate NY who said they were booked for June. I take it with a grain of salt as I have no idea how reliable his info is but I have heard other similar rumblings as well.

John K >>>>>>>>>>>>>> Troy doing Dead songs any day of the fucking week. They could have done the stadium thing with John K. I also had read about the Billy K thing, I dunno. Billy K kinda a known asshole. He busted some dudes testicles with a kick during some street altercation in the 80's I've read.
FTW obviously wanted to be more than just concerts, but a cultural event, and Troy helped move it up to that status since it was like a torch passing, uniting tribes etc (20 years late, ha)
FTW was so awesome, so lucky I got to do all three shows in Chi.

I did Friday and Saturday and you cant even begin to explain to others what it was like because its just indescribable. The ride there, stopping at rest stops from NY to IL filled with Deadheads sharing stories, smokes and such. The entire city overrun. Smiles and stories in every elevator you got in. Such a communal event. Then you get into the stadium and it was just jaw droppingly immense with an overwhelming feeling. I could go on and on.
re:FTW - I tried for tix, didn't score and then just didn't trust my odds in Chicago...had some good viewing parties.............and dead&co @ Phillips a few weeks ago was great.
Nice WSMFP on there X2!, I found a good time to rest up for late night. Conspirator and Big Something are new to Wanee and will bring some jam and funk as will Kung Fu, Soulive, and Dumpsta and I am happy for all of that. NMO project should be good. NMA killed late night about 4 years ago and that Osborne cat is good, right? UMPx2 should have a great laser show!!! I can get my visuals on. Nothing to make me say, "DAMN!!!", some stuff I do not recognize, but I see some soulshine and lots of other great music and funky good times to be had in that line up. Gonna have a Wanee hell of a time!
Widespread Panic x2, Gregg Allman, Gov't Mule, Les Brers, Jaimoe's Jasssz Band, Warren Haynes & Ashes and Dust Band, Billy & The Kids, Umphrey's McGee x2, Hot Tuna Electric With Steve Kimock, Bruce Hornsby and the Noisemakers, N.M.O., Conspirator, Soulive, The Wood Brothers, The Stanley Clarke Band, Oteil and Friends, Tribal Seeds, Dumpstaphunk's Earth, War & Power, Madisen Ward and the Mama Bear, Buddy Lee Rodgers Trio, Kung Fu, Nigel Hall, Devon Allman Band, Big Something.

I think I'm gonna pull the trigger on this after new years, looks like a blast.
Agreed that it looks like a blast. I know this is ABB centric, but it's great to see Conspirator on the lineup because I love those mfs. But being the weekend between Euphoria and 2 weekends of Jazz&Heritage there is no way I can. But Wanee is in future plans for sure.

I'll see you there one of these years man. My festival plans are all over the place this year with the baby on the way and trying to balance all that, but I'm sure we'll hit something together at some point.
