ajxd Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Due to my homies Old Flings playing their last show, this will be my first Fest since... I don't know, 2001? Gainesville Fest became The Fest right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

motorbike Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 It's been a long time since I've posted around here but I'm coming out of hibernation for Fest this year. Hey guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shenanigans Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 It's been a long time since I've posted around here but I'm coming out of hibernation for Fest this year. Hey guys. wow it's been a long time since I've seen that name. Are you still living in my neighborhood? Last year was the first time I could have really made it down, but I wasn't super stoked on the lineup. I kind of told myself last week that if Strike Anywhere was playing I would go. That could still change if they announce an ATL date to tour down there, but I'm leaning towards making this my first Fest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I saw you for a moment at NOFX the other night but wasn't sure. Carpool to Fest maybe? haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

konk Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Ergs reunion is pretty cool, but I don't wanna go see a band where 90% of the festival's attendees are there to see that band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yeah_totally Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Ergs reunion is pretty cool, but I don't wanna go see a band where 90% of the festival's attendees are there to see that band. ehhh when the Descendents played 2 yrs ago, probably 99 percent of the attendees went to see them and it was still super fun and not overwhelming. I'm super pumped for this year. konk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kylet Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 sports. announced they're playing Fest! That's the band I'll be going with. If you don't know them check them out!https://realsportsboys.bandcamp.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jullysammich Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 (edited) The lady & I will be heading down from Pittsburgh this year for our first Fest! (And pre-fest!) I couldn't be more excited. The lineup is insane. We were already sold with the first announcement... then last night they add Cheap Girls, PUP, Direct Hit!, Worriers, etc. I can't wait!

shenanigans Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Well assuming nothing changes, I've got Friday figured out. Now just have to decide if I want to get up early and drive down Friday morning or go down Thursday night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
controlthebleeding Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 we should all meet up for a minute.. anyone going to pre-fest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werner Herzog Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 So stoked to finally be going to Fest this year! Anyone want to catch D4 with me? Whiskey and cokes are on you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motorbike Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 (edited) Spending time getting reacquainted with bands I've forgotten about in preparation for Fest so I figured I'd drop by this thread... I can't believe this thread isn't blowing up. Maybe most of the old guard is gone. Oh, how the mighty have fallen.

No pre-fest but I'll be around the Holiday Inn early Friday morning starting the party. I'd like to at least put faces to names even though I never posted a whole lot when this board was peaking. I propose a massive VC Bud Heavy (or beer of your choice) Shotgun. For those who don't drink booze I will have a cold twelver of Yoo-hoos.

Clarmont can be exciting. The fact that you're going on a weekday will make it much more enjoyable than a weekend. It has become a tourist attraction for weekender in the city. I think that is karaoke night to. Just don't touch your face while there. I've gotten pick eye twice from that place. As far as records I'd visit Criminal Records and Wax'n'Facts in Little Five Points. There are bound to be a vape shop or two in Little Five as well. Shoot me a DM when the dates get closer and we can get some beers and wings. The Local across the street from Clarmont has the best wings in the world.

Not sure what time they open. Used to be later in the night. I've banned myself from that place however I will make an exception. Never been in the day and I'd love to see how weird it is in there at 4pm on a Wednesday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What day is that? Theres always some rad shows in ATL this time of year. Clermont Tuesdays is Karaoke. Thursdays they often have bands now. Actually been to some pretty rad shows there this year. I think Vape Atlanta is in L5P near criminal and wax n facts. I've also been popping in beatlab over there a bit and have had some nice finds. Also down for a VC meetup when you're here.

As of now I'm riding by myself with my bike because I'm trying to get down for either the Rehasher or Gunmoll show on Thursday and coming back later on Monday.
