Music Festivals

LMAO! that's weird that they moved the location from MPP to NYC

They're still running the festival at MPP. The Queens and Maryland shows are happening on the same weekend (!!!). It's not an identical lineup, but enough overlap at the top of the bill to accommodate people who got shut out of the initial Maryland sale.
 
The lineup for Form is incredible imo. Anyone ever been to this festival? Seems it is limted to like 2.5k attendees. I also love the idea of no overlapping sets. This might be the kind of festival I target in the future. Also, as a huge Hundred Waters fan, I trust their curation, which is necessary since the lineup isn't announced until after tix sell out.

Riot Fest seems like a lot of work
in it's previous location, the hardest part was getting there. in this new incarnation, getting there will probably suck more and no one really knows what the fest will actually be like. but previously, once you got in, it was fantastic. diverse programming across all stages, lots of carnival attractions, good food, not huge. lots of issues with the fest, the park district, and the neighbors though. it was time for them to move, but they picked about as bad of a new location as possible.
 
Did anyone make sure that @scotthilk is aware of this?
Hayyy! I wish I could make this. Two of my favorite bands (albeit SUBLIME is in tribute form). I'll be seeing NOFX in Denver and on their final (3) LA shows though! Great lineup- I really should find a way there but it is seeming impossible right now. Thanks for thinking of me!
 
I haven't seen Devo in a long time and they will be great as always, but would have loved to see Garbage as I can't remember seeing them. And as for Sting, never seen him and I'm sure will put on a great show. Luckily caught Neil on this tour before it shut down.
 
Cross-post from the upcoming/recent concerts thread...

Pickathon 2024 is a wrap. As always, it was beautiful and inspiring and unforgettable. Over 4 days, I saw 31 unique bands play 39 sets of music. Ran into @Dead C and family, and saw @Matt M from a distance during Jeffrey Martin's set. Still feeling very energized, but will undoubtedly feel like I got hit by a Mack truck tomorrow. Here are a few photo highlights from the weekend...

Lana, Goo Goo Dolls, Nelly, Backstreet Boys (?), Creed (?!?)

I'd be interested to see who the Compton Cowboys end up being 👀
