Have we gotten set times for Revolution Oktoberfest tonight?

[andrewvb]

MUSIC LINEUP:
FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 29
9-10pm: Real Estate
7:30-8:30pm: SANDY Alex G
6:45-7pm: Break
6-6:45pm: VARSITY
4:45-5:30pm: PEEL

[Pale Hose]

That's perfect for me. Thank you.

Obviously I plan on being there tonight. My buddy lives less than a block away so I imagine I'll be with him, but if anyone else wants to meet up HMU.

[concertgoer]

We are going to have some nice weather tonight
My plan is to get there by 7ish

[andrewvb]

for anyone thinking of going to revolution today, note that last night was a packed mess. insane lines for everything and probably more people than they should allow in. plus you had to get beer tickets and just like p4k friday this year those lines were insanely long. on the plus side, we just went into coles to get a drink instead but it was still packed in there (and every other bar on the block) too.

hopefully the fact that tonight isn't anyone near as popular as real estate will mean less people today, but im guessing saturday evening in beautiful weather will bring the crowds back again.

Good but a day too late for me
That was an absolute shitshow yesterday
Alex G was great tho

[Pale Hose]

Yeah I'm not going back after yesterday either. I know you can't technically charge entrance on a public street, but they need to find a way to curb attendance if they're going to do this again.

[mookie]

If anyone does go today, please post what the croqd situaution is at the stage around 6:30 so I know if I should go for White Lung or just head to Concord

[Kamera]

Just got in with no lines -- stage area is light but the other side is crowded as fuck.

[mookie]

Holy shit you guys were not kidding about this Revolution fest... This is worse than WPF was on its worst day. 0kenty of room by the stage of course

yeah, and on friday night the bands playing were actually popular so the stage side was pretty packed too.

That fest was way too crowded for a street fest yesterday
