Yeah, they definitely just got added.  Explains that one-off show at the Bottle though.

CVB headlining over Cracker is not going to play out well for David Lowery, but I'm guessing he's the one who made that call.

[teekoh]

I would like to go to Saturday of that festival and hope that I can make that happen.

[Pale Hose]

They usually book bigger bands for that event. I wonder if they're still going to charge people, those should all be free shows.

People, refresh my memory. Is Taste of Randolph a cash-only affair or are there food vendors taking credit?

Some of the food vendors take cards. It seemed about 50-50
Drink vendors were cash only

Sheffield Garden Walk 2019 News!

We have some exciting news to share regarding our Sheffield Garden Walk & Music Festival. After much internal board research and study, SNA has decided to take our 51st Sheffield Garden Walk into a new, fresh and exciting direction.

We hired a new event management company who has fresh ideas and matches more closely the vision our board has for our biggest fundraising event of our association.

We met with them at a kickoff meeting on Friday and we are very excited about this new direction, new food and yes, new music our new festival will bring to our community.

Yes it will be in the same location, yes there will be better music, yes there will be better food and yes there will be a better family area all of which we promise will be a better experience than we have been bringing our community in recent years.

Stay tuned for more information and mark your calendars for July 19th through 21st. The newly branded festival experience will be revealed sometime in March. We cannot wait!

They ended up rebranding to "Sheffield Street Festival" and booking cover bands. RIP Sheffield Garden Walk.

That was a lot of fun. Thank you Chicago.

Wasn’t the best set I’ve ever been to but it was still fun and I ate fancy ass cheeses to

[Pale Hose]

Naked Giants were enjoyable too, that first song, Regular Guy, was hilarious. Bowie cover was a nice touch to get the older people's attention.

I also ate fancy cheese, and drank a bottle of malbec w/MPH. Fun night.

[alady]

Was it crowded?

Not egregiously so

Highlight of the show was a bunch of dumb people rushing the stage from the lawn during the last 60 seconds of “beach life in death” tho

[alady]

Huh!

Huh!

It was mixed age group too so not a pack of goodsons getting overly excited about shit

[alady]

When you say rushing the stage like do you mean just running up into the seats or actually climbing up on the stage?

Either way: Huh!

Just running over to the seats where “the pit” was and barely missing many a parent with their cheap Pinot Grigios

[alady]

Goodness!

It was a wild night! I got to pretend I knew cool places and went to Monk’s tonight
