Sounds like they might be scaling it back? Which might be a good thing. Idk, Goldberg worded the post really weirdly
Disaster of an announcement lol. Dude must be hammered.
Seems like they’re going to have to scale it back. Seems like it might not be centered around 3 nights of UM + moe. anymore too?
Or it is? Hard to tell in that sea of words.
So fuckin confused.
“Wife” still won’t go
It’ll be a country music festival next memorial day to conform with the local tastes.
Probably got an offer from another promoter to good to pass up.
I’m guessing a smaller festival, potentially at a different location, with fewer bands.
I read it to say they would still be a part of it.
I’m thinking that central Illinois had a problem with the wook invasions of memorial day weekend
Was inevitable, what with um going on hiatus and all that
Hang Out’d
The way I read this is, we can’t afford to book these mainstream EDM acts when Roo, Coachella, etc are also trying to book them. We’re going to scale back to a smaller size with moe. and UM who have been with us for 20+ years.
The local authorities can’t generate as much revenue since recreational marijuana was legalized in IL.
This is how I read it too
The location is staying the same though? And memorial day weekend? Just redefined? But still moe and UM? Sounds like a vague way to drum up ticket sales for this years SC
In my older age, less bands, less stages is more appealing. Still likely won’t make the trek again but I am intrigued.
