Does anyone know why the Drive-by Truckers are scheduled for Wooly’s AND Val-air on 10/29? I suspect only one is correct, but…?
I saw a notice it was moved from Val Air to Wooly's, I assume due to weaker than expected ticket sales.

I just bought tickets for Sick New World festival next April in Vegas. $600 per ticket. I always said the only way I would spend more than $100 on a concert ticket is if my favorite band, Acid Bath, ever did a reunion show. Never thought it would happen, but they are playing this festival, and it's a one time reunion so this is my only chance to see them live. My broke ass had to do the layaway plan. It will be worth it.

Will also get to see Metallica, Tomahawk, Stabbing Westward, Napalm Death, and some bands I love that I have seen multiple times - Ministry, Exodus, Cannibal Corpse, Mayhem, Down, Melvins, Testament, Carcass.

The Charlie XCX/ Father John Misty Year right after Covid was great. War on Drugs/Big Boi was decent but most of the charm was that it was downtown and walking around Western Gateway. We didn't bother to go to Water Works last year even though it had become sort of destination event for me and my wife just prior and after Covid, the bands last year didn't interest us and the logistics of Water Works are just awful with parking etc. I will miss it but we've found some other festivals last year including our first year at Hinterland which the music was great and logistics were awful.

Minnesota Yacht Club in St. Paul was amazing and we hope to go back. Venue/Lineup/Logistics amazing at Minnesota Yacht Club for an inaugural festival, they have already announced increasing it from 2 to 3 days

How is that venue? I was looking at going to a show there but the setup seems really odd.
It's definitely not an intimate venue because I think the capacity is like 8000 people. So if that's what you are looking for, then this is not the place for you.

I personally like the setup a lot. It feels a lot different than your average huge basketball arena reconfigured for a concert. It's feels like it's specifically designed as a concert venue. Most of it is open floor standing room, but then you also have some elevated space along sides where the bar runs full length front to back on each side. Never have to wait in line basically.

Also, what gives it a bit of a nightclub feel too, is that they have bottle service seating/tables in the balcony that also runs full length front to back on each side. There is no general seating which I like because there is nothing more lame than sitting down at a concert (with the exception of bottle service).

It's just a cool historic building where the Lakers used to play back in the day.

I've probably seen 20 shows there and always had a good time.

Looks like there are big changes to Hinterland, for the better. At least Sam Summers listened to the complaints.

Thank ******* goodness. I was literally just talking to somebody last night about how I did not ever plan to go back after this year, and this would be a game changer there.

I was just talking to my wife about finding a concert at Red Rocks this summer instead of Hinterland. I don't think I can do that again. I'll give it a year and see if the changes improve things and maybe go back for 2026.

Saw some incredible acts last year but it was the most ridiculous experience of my life.

Saw this got cancelled. That sucks for you.



Went to When We Were Young in Vegas last year and have tickets again for 2025 - great festival with a ton of great bands again next year. Can't wait as Panic has been on my must-see list for 20+ years.
