The Red Dons
Get Bent
Potential Johns
Jean Claude Jam Band
Louis Tully
Teenage Bottlerocket
For Science
The Bananas

if Frenzal Rhomb played.. that would make my Fest. i even got a bit excited just at other people mentioning them.

I was under the impression they had broken up.. not that these things matter when it comes to being booked for Fest, haha

nah i don't think they have.. unless i missed something

Thorns of Life
Get Bent
Gaslight Anthem
Heathers
Dead to Me
Shook Ones (cause I missed em this time)
Sundowner

I was just going to add this to my list, but I'll just make a new post to emphasise the point:

Ben Weasel

Totally! Did you know the keyboard player can beat Super Mario with his feat? Totally on Youtube! I love those guys...



That'd be sweet, and just for good measure since the guitar player/lead singer is in Ben's band anyways, I'd love to see The Jetty Boys play!

My friends brother is like best friends with Andrew W.K.. I will attempt to make a suggestion to him

I'm eventually going to cut together a highlight video of all the footage we have from Fest 7. we can show him that awesomeness that is Fest and dare him to top it

This is not about anyone in particular so I certainly hope no one takes offense to it. Just a comment on my (and many other people who I have spoken too) general frsutrations about things, the whole Throns of Life bandwagon jumping in particular.

A) Silly topic. It's like asking a band who have been off stage for all of five minutes when they're going to play again.

B) For christ sakes people, don't you all think you're jumping the gun a bit on Thorns of Life? Yes, I too would love to see them, yet they've played two shows so far. Most of us have yet to even have had the opportunity to hear them. Here's the deal...again, this not about anyone in particular. The internet has made it seemilngly impossible for a band like this to evolve in a natural manner. Most bands record a demo, play shows, record a 7", go on short tours, so on and so forth. They haven't even played more than two shows, and people are already creating expectations for a band they know nothing about. Too me, people jumping so quickly on the "everybody else is doing it, so why shouldn't I" bandwagon need to cool their jets a bit.

I would personally fight this band if they came anywhere near the Fest.
