Listened to / scanned through a half dozen of those because a lot of those names are my style above & beyond setting and intro song, and believer in that setting, were beautiful Ben Bohmer setup is really cool and he opened with my favorite song of his. FKJ setting and set were also top tier. Just meshed the music with the setting perfectly. Parra set was the best that I watched and is up there with the Sultan & Sheperd Topanga CA set as one of my favorite chill sets. Went to Elderbrook DJ set on 12/30 and it was really fun. Super small venue though but i saw him twice in 2023 and the first time was a normal performance. Both were super fun
Looks like the big weirdo festival I’m going to this year is Ultra Korea On top of SXSW, ACL, and Seismic as the annuals
Noah Kahan seems to be making the festival rounds. No boomer, but I swear I'd never heard of this guy until the fall. When did he blow up?
Only reason I even became aware of him was some basic ass white girl who I followed for hiking reasons. Seems like the target demo
They have the specific weekend lineups on their website, too. Prolly doing the first: https://www.nojazzfest.com/music/
Been wanting to see Anderson .Paak forever, so that puts it over the top for me. Saw The Killers years ago and they rocked. Plus fucking Juvenile. If they could just move Widespread to the second weekend it'd be an easy choice.
I've seen .Paak like five times at this point, probably my favorite artist for live shows. Definitely the right choice
oh man. What a perfect lineup. Who wants to come babysit? Or can we convince my wife to let me go alone with TMB bros?
Woohoo! See you there. Map just came out today and this place looks massive who you excited about seeing?
is there still not a daily fuckin lineup for that one? I was hoping they put STS9 and Opius on the same day I would go see it. But also have a buddy coming in town and Vulfpeck & Steve Aoki are playing thursday and friday here in Austin. Saturday and/or Sunday I'd drive up for a one-day pass
STS9 is Monday. Opiuo is Monday. Vulfpeck is closing Lonestar stage Sunday. The band you really want to see, the Disco Biscuits, playing right before Vulfpeck Sunday. Tipper playing right before that (retiring in 2025, possible last chance to see him) They don’t recommend coming into our leaving the fest on Monday and I don’t think they have single days, just 2 days.
Sounds like they might have just released a smaller amount. Don’t see them available anymore. 2 day passes are relatively cheap on the secondary market
Absolutely brutal conflicts on Sunday and Monday. Biscuits and Tipper (Tipper is retiring - might be the first and last time for me to see him) Clozee and STS9 - lots of people upset at this one
Just booked Under the Big Sky. Camping at a Hipcamp across the street. Anyone know why/when they stopped offering camping on site? That was a great setup.
