Hopscotch Music Festival 2017

After almost 22 years of festivals, I've finally accepted that good line-up's = crap schedules.

I'm also in for Songs: Molina.

e:

According to this, everything but Neptune's is all ages.

Mount Eerie v. Boy Harsher v. Pallbearer is awful.

I'm not too worried about Pallbearer. They tend to come through a lot on tour. Boy Harsher vs Mount Eerie sucks. I doubt I'll get another shot to see Phil again on this album cycle though.



This x100.

I feel like I get carded at Slim's, too. That's been a bit though.

Do you have your poncho ready too, for Mount Eerie?

Glad that's returning. I need to remember my tube this year so I can actually purchase some stuff.

I realized that Monk Parker was playing after I heard the new record. Hello, Monk. Audios, Thou. It's gonna be a strange Hopscotch with no wierd and little metal for me.

They are always one of the least attended shows. No beer/bathroom lines AND I could wear denim vests without out strange looks.

Starting to wonder if we will get any day parties or if they will be severely limited. Usually a few weeks out a few pop up before the official announcement. All I can find this year is at Crank Arm Brewing with no bands announced.

Everything seems to be getting released a little behind schedule.  Hopefully sometime next week.

Day Parties should get announced this week, possibly tomorrow.
