Was the 2017 Shaky Lineup that bad ? I wouldn't have traveled for it but they had LCD, The xx, Phoenix, Ryan Adams, The Shins and other good stuff that I'm forgetting. they didnt add ryan until way later. before that, the only band on it i really wanted to see was wolf parade edit: it was also a very hard turn from 2016 that was topped with alt rock, metal, post hardcore, etc. bands as well as shed sized acts like florence Fair enough

Yeah 2017 wasn't their best but it still had my attention.
Also, Phoenix still hasn't played Texas. There have to be more dates coming from them.

is Pod Save America the first podcast booking at a festival? I can definitely see that becoming more of a thing I've noticed a handful of fests that have comedy tents booking comedy podcasts over the past several years.

Happy to see Paramore will be playing shows next year. Also Belly the Band is great. don't like their only hit feed the tree. don't like belly the band, generally. tanya donelly's pal, kristin hersh, however can do no wrong (4 x in the tk -- 2 x solo, 2 x w/ throwing muses).

I have no idea how well last year's festival sold by comparison, but my fear is that they've just opted for the more mainstream/accessible side of the "rock" spectrum since that's what sells. It was particularly weird that SK 2017 didn't grab any of those heavy acts since Wrecking Ball (ATL's resident punk/metal fest) took 2017 off as well. Maybe they're working on adding a "Shaky Beards" festival to their stable to find a home for the heavy acts?

React seems to know what they're doing. They seem to have created a model that allows them to continue to turn a profit, without the fest having to sell out.

I really hope Amber Coffman starts showing up on some of these lineups. Kinda weird that she's played like zero shows since her album got released last summer.

Yeah I’d really like to see her but judging from her Instagram she’s mostly been running around in Europe for fun

Booking Eminem would somehow make a The National Fest even whiter.

I realized that It's the weekend after Coachella. Would be awesome if they booked David Byrne.

Ah damn that kind of hurts, I have a ticket to that Panda Bear/Geologist show and was thinking about doing Slowdive too.
still though I'm down to sell that ticket if this fest lineup is good enough

I doubt those two lineups would overlap much if they were different weekends and definitely doubt they will at all now.

I would be willing to bet anything on Daughter playing this festival.

Desert Daze and Pickathon are the only fests on my radar this year.
