Title: FreeFest Lineup Guesses

Pick one band that you think will actually appear, and another that you hope for.

For real - Violent Femmes
Hope - Flaming Lips

yeah, i think chance are very high that VW would appear, although i'd be entirely unexcited for them.

daft punk would be fun, but 100% not happening ;D

I'd be happy with Vampire Weekend. Definitely a band I wouldn't mind, but wouldn't normally pay actual money to see at an amphitheater or big money to see at a club.

Now if the can avoid that one weekend where my wife is out of town...


I predict you will have your hands too full with other things to go to or care about Freefest!

it's a moot point, since they've said several times now that they won't be touring this year.

that's one prediction that is pretty damn certain!

Stone Roses

Only if Ian Brown's vocals are pre-recorded. From what I could see at Coachella, I wasn't terribly impressed with him. The rest of the band sounded great.

I saw them twice in 1995. First time Ian actually did OK. The second time, he was horrid.

How about 2 days - October 12-13 - With Neutral Milk Hotel on the 13th. Nothing for them on that date, and they are at the National in Richmond the night before.
Oh, and how about Foxygen at the show, too?

If you go into a Stone Roses show expecting great vocals from Ian, then you're setting yourself up for disappointment.

interesting!  you're in the minority, based on my experience.  most people loved Daft Punk's live show.  which concert did you attend?
Title: Re: FreeFest Lineup Guesses
Post by: kosmo vinyl on May 24, 2013, 08:18:58 am
What I like to get is Sharon Jones and the Dapkings and Alice Smith.  What we are liable to get is Fitz and the Tantrums.

Thankfully there are no new "it" EDM acts like Skrillex and Deadmaus out and about

They could always get Calvin Harris, David Guetta, or.....Skrillex or Deadmau5.

If we're going locals too, 2 years ago they had Will Eastman, last year they had Alvin Risk, this year I think they'll get Tittsworth or Gent & Jawns... I got a feel...

I thought i read on the internet.  Maybe I saw the date in a search.  I could be wrong.
https://www.google.com/search?q=virgin+mobile+freefest+2013+october&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official
October 5 was a date popping up.  I guess I should have read through the results a bit better.

The Replacements


Not really sure how I feel about this.  In any event, a club date would be must-see.

Post by: kosmo vinyl on June 13, 2013, 08:21:01 am
It's a real stretch for the mats. Indication is that their shows are riot fest exclusives and that it's only westerberg and Stinson, no Chris Mars
Title: Re: FreeFest Lineup Guesses
Post by: chaz on June 13, 2013, 08:46:34 am
Don't know how I feel about these replacements shows....but do know if they play around here it's no question I'll be there.

Riot Fest lineups are pretty great.

Post by: hutch on June 13, 2013, 09:35:18 am
I just want Paul WEsterberg to get back out there... he's been gone way too long and is missed.... I hope he's ok from his hand injury... tell me he can play guitar.... I saw Tommy Stinson at Iota about two years ago and it was pretty good....what a nice guy...

they can call it what they want but at the end of the day its going to be Westerberg/Stinson... I guess if they play Replacements songs nothing wrong with that..

I hope we get an area show...I'd check it out in a heartbeat.
Title: Re: FreeFest Lineup Guesses
Post by: StoneTheCrow on June 13, 2013, 09:56:09 am
I think headlining Riot Fest is the wrong way to go about this, but shooting themselves in the foot so suits their style.
Title: Re: FreeFest Lineup Guesses
Post by: kosmo vinyl on June 13, 2013, 10:04:35 am
The sad reality is that the Mats would have had to get a new lead guitarist anyways and I respect the drummer's choice not to participate.

That is one band if the original members are not in the band I don't think anyone would complain too much.  Worst live band I have ever seen.  And that is by a far margin.  And I saw them in their prime.
