bands I don't think have ever played The Fest, or at least not for a few years... and of course the Fest is the perfect tiem to lure some bands out of retirement.

The World/Inferno Friendship Society
Streetlight Manifesto
Murder City Devils
Piebald
Waxwing
Kid Dynamite
Baroness
Drive Like Jehu
The Pixies
Rancid
Rocket From The Crypt
Hot Snakes
Sticks And Stones



I know a few of those are too ridiculous, but a guy can dream...


inferno can't (this year) because of hallowmass, stick and stones for the same reason
kid dynamite probably won't ever play another show
piebald JUST played their last show ever
rftc, hot snakes also ended recently
i could see a drive like jehu reuion maybe
i'd like streetlight to play, and baroness
rancid and pixies are just SO huge compared to this, or so kind of random.
waxwing probably wouldn't, but rocky may
and murder city devils would be really cool



oh yeah, all in all though, i totally support all of these bands playing!

I know a put a few really ridiculous bands on this list, like Husker Du, and Uncle Tupelo. Hell, I might as well have asked for The Smiths.

toally forgot about Hallowmas. Maybe W/IFS could come down for day 3?

I don't think Cursive is unreasonable. I know it was a long time ago, but I saw them at the OLD Common Grounds (with Smackin' Isaiah, now known as A Wilhelm Scream). And I've seen them more recently at The Social in Orlando.

I got another crazy request- Whiskeytown.

but anyway, most of the bands on that huge list aren't anything out of the question at all. It's just a matter of asking them to make time for it!

Search "Converge Fest 2" on youtube. And you will see why bands like these have not since and will never again play a Fest. With that said, I love me some Bane though.

Oh man, the video I saw on youtube had to have been filmed by the world's biggest nerds. Among the choice excerpts from their audible back and forth during the filming:

"This is gonna make us famous dude!"
"I'm gonna go on all the message board and say 'Yo I got the Converge video from Gainesville Fest' and people are gonna shit their pants!"
(to the singer of Converge: "Would you say that was sick?"

Good riddance to backwards hat bro-mosh toughguys!

Sometimes the squeaky wheel does work miracles afterall.
