I got some good news today from Voodoo Fest. Foo Fighters, The Killers, and LCD Soundsystem are playing on separate days. Kendrick Lamar is playing the same night as LCD, but I'm ok if the times conflict, butI'm thinking that LCD will play the main stage before Kendrick Lamar anyway. Here's the daily line-up: www.voodoofestival.com/lineup/by-day/actually this is bad, kendrick and lcd are the good acts and the other days are terrible. damn.

<I see what you did there.> But it works out for me. Seriously, though I really don't think Kendrick and LCD will conflict.

I like the Killers but early Sunday isn't bad with Ron Gallo, Mannequin Pussy, and Black Pistol Fire. And Live was really good at Lolla.
EDIT: Whoops, BLack Pistol Fire is playing Saturday. Sunday also has La Femme and Bleached which I think I will like though I never listened to much of their music.

sunday is prob better than saturday. killers are fun in a pinch whereas foo fighters are a dumpster, and some good undercard whereas saturday just has whitney black angels and (i guess) brand new.
black pistol fire were the worst act i saw at riot fest.

Sigh.

<I see what you did there.> But it works out for me. Seriously, though I really don't think Kendrick and LCD will conflict. Voodoo Fest updated their app and it shows that LCD is playing well before Kendrick Lamar. Times and stages will be avialable on the app on Wed. and website on Thurs. I don't know how to do a screen shot from my phone but here is how it is listed for Friday: ? = my stage prediction LCD (main?) Nghtmare (EDM?) Yellow Claw (EDM?) Prophets of Rage (2nd stage?) The Afghan Whigs (3rd stage?) Galantis (EDM headliner?) Kendrick Lamar (main?) The things that sucks is that it looks like Prophets and Afghan Whigs will conflict.

Someone else can chime in and confirm, but pretty much everything that I heard about Prophets from Riot Fest was negative.

That's sucks. I like (and have seen) Afghan Whigs but never seen Prophets.

the board's obsession with hating all ratm related music is pretty unfounded.
Prophets sound fun when they do rage and the audioslave instrumentals are a nice touch. the new stuff isn't great but whatever. if you care about a #rare factor and like morello and crew, you should go watch.
Afghan Whigs always kick ass so you can't go wrong but they do tour very often since the reunion so it probably won't be your only chance

I'll probably just have to split sets. I think the stages are not very far from each other.
Any idea how City Park compares to Grant Park?

From past experience, the park is easily navigable. Stages aren't as close as Coachella stages, but are much closer than Lolla. The only problem I see with the schedule above is that the EDM stage (while not geographically far) is tough to navigate in terms of getting a spot where you can see. If you don't care about that and just want to hear and dance...no issue. If you need to see what's going on on-stage, getting in and out is a real time commitment. You can get just about any stage at Voodoo in about 5 minutes walking from any other stage.

Awesome, Thanks! Old people like me tend to stay away from EDM stages anyway. So, it sounds great to me.

My family was a regular Voodoo attendee. Their VIP (LOA) package used to be fantastic, promising "front row" access at all of the stages. That front row took up fully half of the (left-to-right) main stage front area. They've dropped front row from the standard LOA package, though, so we've dropped the fest from our schedule. First world problems.

You have to be shitting me with that David Byrne billing. That just made me want to punch a wall and I don't think I've ever gotten physically angry over music before.

david byrne only gets arena-level billing if it's a colorguard show
