So, Breakaway festival now lists their Boston venue on their site. This is so not my cup of tea, but it's great that an EDM festival is coming to Boston for those who like that sort of thing. I checked out the one lineup of theirs which has already been announced, and I actually recognized the names of a couple of the headliners, so there are so big names involved.
Fred again.. was playing in one of the previews so i’m definitely there if he’s on the lineup
yeah im incredibly curious to see what this lineup looks like. i'm super picky hit-or-miss with edm stuff. hopefully it's more like Fred again.. and less like Deadmau5. i was planning to spend a ton of money on a Mohegan Sun weekend to see Springsteen that weekend, so we'll see what i pick.

The interview that Fred gave where he recently said Osheaga and Lolla were his only NA summer festival dates this year makes me think he won't be there (September 15 is still summer), but I obviously wouldn't be opposed to it even though I'll probably be doing Sustain-Release that weekend instead, which is generally more my speed dance music wise

I will! You kinda have to know people who have been already that will vouch for you and I know a few who have gone and are good friends of one of my best friends. So not a sure thing but hoping I can get in

Feels more like Reset to me for sure, neither of which I'd actually call a festival even if they're calling themselves that.
Re:SET is officially a concert series, not a festival, but it feels like a festival to me, but without the conflicts. It's nice to know that if you see a name on the poster that you like, you're not going to spend months wondering whether you'll actually get to see them because they're playing at the same time as someone else you want to see.
Breakaway certainly looks like a festival, given the number of artists performing each day, although probably not one with multiple stages happening at the same time. I'm all for a return to the touring festivals which dominated the landscape in the 90's. You add Breakaway and Re:SET to Boston Calling, In Between Days, and NICE, a fest and it *finally* feels like we've got a decent festival scene in the immediate Boston area. Add a rap-focused event and an Americana/Jam festival, and we'd have all of the bases covered within the Rt. 128 beltway.
At the risk of sounding like “old man yells at cloud” I don’t understand half of this post… what is VTSS and what is infra? Lol
Here, let me try.
VTSS is musician that does wub wub. Real name Martyna Maja. Polish, based in London. Hot.
I believe that infra is a gaming event. And she will be there to play on 4/15.
Hope that helps.
First part is right but infra isn't gaming related. They're a techno promoter that mostly books shows in Central Square but they have an annual even called Infrastructure held at the Cyclorama building on Tremont that VTSS is headlining this year www.infrabos.com/

NICE, a fest tickets just went onsale with "Hella Early Bird" pricing, but it's a blind onsale. No names have dropped. A single 4-day pass at this price tier is $78, with fees.

kinda surprised it's expanding to 4 days. i feel like almost every local band i like played it last year (future teens, weakened friends, rebuilder, hallelujah the hills, speedy ortiz) so how do they fill 4 days? will the lineup be 85% unknown porchfest-level bands?
the 2 bigger names that i know are supposed to be playing shows this year that i LOVE and could see headlining Nice are Bad Rabbits and The Hotelier. and if either of those are true then i'll be super bummed because i'm out of town that weekend.
i think i’ll say fuck it and go for blind 3 day presale. im seeing big thief on the 20th and i dont think theyll get anyone for the preparty id wanna sell my ticket for
also Alex Pickert is a great dude and i wanna support his endeavors

Where's Big Thief playing on the 20th? That date is listed as open on their site.
EDIT: Oh, nevermind. Just saw your subsequent post.

It's almost as if you can be sure that any notable local band that didn't play last year will play this year. I'd basically look at the local (rock) artists from Boston Calling and In Between Days from this year and last year and count in any that didn't play NICE last year.
Dunno how recently this was updated but google maps now shows land cleared for Suffolk Downs (the dot circled red is a pickup truck, for scale). I would guess the stage is facing southwest, placed around where the circled truck is, and the dark brown dirt is the area right in front of it

It just occurred to me that clearing the infield of sod doesn't make any sense. That means that the audience area is either going to be incredibly dusty or incredibly muddy without something natural or artificial covering the dirt. If you suspect that the crowds will damage the turf, let that damage happen and then replace it after this year's shows. You'll be replacing the sod either way. This is like intentionally burning down your house now to prevent an accidental fire from burning it down later.
