 Monday (Bumbershoot):

not going but thats a nice lineup

[Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer]

Yes, I was very impressed with the lineup...and the number of good acts that we'll be missing because they overlap with the ones we chose is impressive as well.
 
 ...and you guys think I'm picky with music. My brother made the comment that he was "thoroughly unimpressed with the Bumbershoot lineup", and thus wouldn't be attending.

I agree with your brother. But have fun anyways.

It should be for that alone.  Does anyone know if they're planning a club tour?  Seems like all they've been doing is the festival circuit.  If the Dolls can do it, why not the Stooges?
 
 And did anyone pick up the reissues of the first two albums?  Any worthwhile bonus material?

Yeh man, I don't want to see the Stooges outside.  That just feels wrong for some reason.

[Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer]

Of those you list, only Dolorean, Decemberists, Earlimart, and Son Volt are playing Bumbershoot. Hitchcock is playing a Seattle show unrelated to Bumbershoot on Friday.

They're playing in a soccer stadium. That counts as inside, no?

Perhaps the Garbage/NY Dolls/The Donnas mainstage show on Friday would appeal to you.
 
 The the headlining gig from the Phish guy on Saturday would appeal to Redsock.

Let me clarify that, I would want to see The Stooges in a club.

[bearman🐻]

I was tempted...I'll be out that way, sadly I leave the day Iggy plays and that's really the only one I'm dying to see.

[stu47]

im going....actually, our itenary is along the same lines, as sunday and monday are by far the best show nights...we're actually going to the robyn hitchcock club show friday

[lionforce5]

Well...seeing as how I live here now I imagine I'll probably be there...but not sure...Decibel festival is next month and there's a good handful of artists I'd like to see there as well.

 Drop the NY Dolls and you've got something there.
