I don't know what happened to LouFest but this is totally not the same festival I went to last year. What a mess.

-No shade since it's in a parking lot -Will Call lines are massively long since they don't have scanners to redeem paper tickets for wristbands -They ran out of schedules within an hour of the fest opening -They ran out of 2017 wristbands so they're giving out 2016 wristbands (so yes you can get in for free if you still have a 2016 wristband) -sightlines for the stages are terrible -Sound quality is not good either -Festival layout is confusing

Wow. That sounds terrible. Buzz Beach Ball had to change venues from a soccer stadium to an amphitheater (I don't know why) so we had some shade issues as well, but nothing like what you experienced. In fact, Buzz Beach Ball was fondly reminiscent of the touring Lollapalooza (minus the much better quality in music).

yessssssssssssssssssssss though them going 4 days makes me think this is maybe going to become a venue fest. But honestly I'm totally down to pay money for a full fest thats basically FFF Nites (i know sxsw is a thing but thats a bit different)

The The are playing their first shows in 16 years at the heartland festival in denmark june 1 and royal albert hall in london june 5.
seems like primavera would make a lot of sense between the two.

I could see that. Would they be in play for Pitchfork as well?

Yeah, Loufest was a bit of a wreck this year. VIP was good, lots of shade though the food options were very limited. But the rest of the fest was a mess. I can't believe how bad the Bud Light stage was with awful sight lines and bad sound, and the Enterprise stage was also way too small given the sizes of bands on the stage (Cage the Elephant, Huey Lewis and Run the Jewels being the worst).

Also allowing folks to bring in lawn chairs was a bad idea especially at the Enterprise Stage where you had a lot just bring them into the pit and sit down.

I'm guessing The National are headlining Primavera as well.

only 19 acts of the stagecoach 2018 lineup are in the trapper keeper, although we're thinking of checking out tyler childers in a month when he plays schubas.
