Dates line up for Springsteen. Anyone else hearing anything?
Would love to see him on this--still weird that his only date in the broader area is Columbus--but so far of the three rumored festivals for him (Sound on Sound and Outside Lands being the other two) it hasn't materialized. Springsteen forums talking about more US dates summer-fall 2024, so I would expect a combination of Cincy/Louisville/Indy once we get there.
I'm not sure they could top last year's lineup, but I hope they try. We found ourselves staring at the billboard for the following week which had Louder than Life and some acts I would have curated for B&B over some of the country if I was in charge. Since they're doing a 3-7pm happy hour lineup reveal with Kroger's purchaser Chris Blanford, perhaps the lineup will be out before or around 2pm Central. Or 26 minutes.
We're all a mess of paradoxes. Believing in things we know can't be true. We walk around carrying feelings too complicated and contradictory to express. But when it all becomes too big, and words aren't enough to help get it all out, there's always music.
No. But it set records. Recommend you get VIP or above for viewing area alone. That was sold out. Big ass area in front of both stages which are side by side plus shade in the afternoon. It was 90’s and hot as fuck last year in the sun, and there isn’t much shade on the grounds.

Lots of goodies on the lineup. I went to the Pearl Jam/Its Always Sunny day last year that set the DWP attendance record. Holding out on LTL as I am expecting Foo Fighters and Tool.
Cool, eclectic lineup! Wish NYC had something like this one, Shaky Knees (which I did get to once), or Ohana Fest around here because every year I see the lineups and so much wish I was closer.
11/28 Raveonettes (Copenhagen, Denmark) 12/4 Interpol 12/14 LCD Soundsystem 12/31 Billy Joel 1/25 The Killers (Las Vegas) 2/12 Jack White 2/25 Father John Misty 3/6 Inhaler 4/10 Franz Ferdinand 4/17 Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds 5/15 Amyl & the Sniffers 5/18 Fontaines D.C. 9/1 Oasis
Just bought Mint VIP passes- 4 days of stage front for $650 is a bargain. This is a great lineup for our rock/blues/Americana tastes, and throws in some killer pop (Bruno) for good measure. Lots of good stuff we've never seen, from top to bottom. Kudos to DWP for headlining Brandi Carlile- their music is even better live.
We'd planned on attending Sea.Hear.Now (an hour from home) this weekend, but got shut out on VIP tix. This will be a more than satisfactory replacement!

Mint was decent. There were maybe 750-1000 people who had it. When you're facing the stages, the right side is the Angel's Envy beyond VIP lounge area and bar. There is kind of an open barn to the left which was generally packed throughout the day because you could get out of the sun. That area had the podcast recording and was just behind the "food and whiskey stage" and Bluegrass Situation stage which is on that side of the grounds. All VIP had access to the front section of both stages. The stages alternate, so you'll get to see everything on the lineup except the smaller bluegrass/blues acts sprinkled in which are on the small stage which you'd have to walk over to specifically see anything there.
Don't sleep on the Food Stage stuff if they do it again this year. Chopped Judge and Food Network Star Chris Santos, a Louisville resident, curated the food stage. It had some cheezy shit like GVF brothers who can do a better burger. But they also had Tiffany Faison up there with the It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia doing comedy and cooking a pork belly. The chefs they had last year were Chris Santos, Ed Lee, Amanda Freitag, Antonia Lofaso, Damaris Phillips, Anthony Llamas.
A couple notes - the food stuff and whiskey tastings do get passed around to some people. I'm not sure how you register for that or if you just have to be there 10-15 minutes before an event to get selected to participate. Also, they had a special performances area where they gave you free food and drinks and you got a 20 minute set with Brandi or St. Vincent or whomever that you could sign up for in advance provided you use Zelle Cash App between 1-5 times within the time period they announced the events. Everyone I talked to who went to one of these said it was a highlight.
