Last year we had Naked Raygun, Seaweed, Small Bronw Bike, Youth Brigade, and probably a couple others that aren't coming to mind.
This year we got Leatherface so far. but I'm itching for them to announce a couple more reunions or rarites. At the moment, I really feel like some Shellac.

I've seen Pegboy two handfuls of times, i wouldnt mind seeing them again, and i'm willing to bet anything they'd do it. Were the Effigies there last year? Maybe I'm thinking of Riot Fest Chicago (which also featured Stiff Little Fingers last year, which would be awesome at Fest) Now if only Fest can steal T.S.O.L. as well...

I'm holding out for ALL. The Bouncing Souls have been around since the 80s believe it or not. Pinhead Gunpowder would be rad as well.

Shellac are playing Glasgow while Fest is on, so I can't see them turning up, I'm afraid.

I'd love Pegboy more than anything else right now. well, except Screeching Weasel. Oh, and the Effegies didn't play Gainesville last year, I would have lost my mind more than I did already.

Yeah, i forgot to count them. They especially count as an "old" band this year, given their expected set list.

I second all three of these! But I can tell you right now FLOOR will never happen again. Torche doesnt even play their songs anymore as of Meanderthal. And, I had a dream a few weeks back that FLOOR confirmed a reunion show for the Fest and i was stoked/bummed all at once when I woke up. I immediately sent Steve a message about my dream. His reply? "That was a nightmare! And will never happen." ouch.

I hate to say it but I'm felling/hoping the same way.

oh yeah, Coalesce too.
So that's two old bands, and one old set (souls).

Pegboy would have been great as I still haven't seen them. I was also hoping for Gorilla Biscuits/CIV and Bollweevils this year.

"It's never gonna happen, live in the now!"
I was thinking the same thing, but then i realised 'why the shit am I disapointed? nearly all my favourite bands are playing the same weekend - im spoiled!' |
