Freaker's wish list is basically the Osheaga lineup.
Oh it's not my wish list just a quick list I culled from TURF, Osheaga, Lolla etc...To show the number of great, relevant acts that are out there this year, heavily touring summer festivals.
My wish list is this festival - http://shakykneesfestival.com/
Stupid Atlanta and their stupid awesome festival

Can't believe J Dilla is playing considering he's been dead since 2006.

destroyed or pulled out their flask in front of a staff member
You looked at me, gave me a wink and proceeded to pull the flask out and take a slam...about 1 foot away, looking directly at you was the bouncer with the most confused look on his face.
Fucking priceless.

Whats the deal with Vapor Central, do you need a med license or can I walk in there with my PAX and get crazy?
-
Ya folks back home are pretty pumped for OCMS. I half debated heading home for it but it sold out so quickly.
Still can't picture people gettin' down to bluegrass in Convocation Hall, wild!
-
I think they did the same thing with VIP tickets last week too.
I don't remember them being $300 when I first looked
still in.

Well now we know what crushed Monahan's spirit, this a huge lineup for Osheaga they obviously have made some big time partners helping pull the strings, C3 for one at least.
Personally I think the lineup is shit but you gotta give them props for booking the big names
What I don't get though is Lollapalooza and Osheaga have almost identical lineups and they're on the same weekend?!? That has to be a logistical nightmare
-
Well that sure does seal the deal.
Agreed
-
MORE ARTISTS ADDED: July 13th:
Serena Ryder
Phosphorescent
Half Moon Run
Finally something to get excited about! Phosphorescent is fucking amazing and I've been loving HRM lately

Question for our resident lawyers;
Since the smoking ban bylaw only applies to municipal lands and not federally owned lands, can the Bluesfest legally ask patrons not to smoke on what is essentially public property?
Please educate me.

It was apparently in the email that got sent out.
