@OSUmBeaverPhreak when is the Alaska dates dropping? Need deetz
Fuck, I kind of meant I’d like to see UM in AK but with more than 4 months notice.
Hahahahah inverted meme!
4 months is a long time daddy
Not when you already planned out a bunch of stuff already.
fair, hopefully you win the lotto and are able to attend.
I might actually be in Alaska during this
is this a bit? cause if so i laughed really hard.
No bit. Visiting friends in Haines, haven’t dialed in the exact dates but I can include this in the plans now
bummer for me, exciting for you.
i feel like it’s common to see people say “oh wow i’ll actually be in this place during this”, so i thought you were playing off that.
Haha no this is actually just perfect timing and pure coincidence.
Plus it’s Alaska so that’s pretty unlikely for somebody to have something line up like that
Was planning on going for the last two weeks of July but I can push it back a week for this now. Decent.
Pretty fucking stoked on this brahs!
holy shit man! thanks for being the first to tell us!
The basics:
- turn social media notifications on for the band/festival
- scour tour dates and previous booking history
- constantly refresh the home page of the festival until your wrist hurts
The borderline desperate:
- blow up message boards regarding the festival (they hate me on inforoo)
- scout out the respective booking agencies and get names for LinkedIn and act like you want to do a informational chat and ask subtle lineup questions
- call arenas asking about planned tour dates for bands that have not announced tours (found out Pearl Jam was playing Bonnaroo in 2016 this way)
at least this is what I do to figure out who is playing what before lineup announcements
I literally just asked the festival last week and they said it was happening lol. Didn’t want to spill the beans right away…
I did a big Alaska trip back in June/July 2010, it was a blast. Sundown may be listed at 10:30, but the sky still has a decent amount of light all night. It’s weird walking out of a bar at 10 pm and the sun hitting you.
This band can suck the shit from my asshole
