San Diego Street Scene 2009

[Sexecutioner]

dude, not parking in the lot means you are walking pretty far. considering the show costs 7 bucks, paying a little for parking isnt a big deal. and i have never seen them just let anybody in without paying for admission, but then again, i have never shows up near the end of the actual races. if you are going to the track, i highly suggest making a day out of it and betting on some ponies. that shit is fun. for saturday shows i usually hang in the infield, which isnt as good of a view of the track, but there is a cool area to hang out and drink beer and still make bets and watch the races. they also have a little micro brew fest there, but the lines get long. might want to skip the last race though to get a good spot for the show, which is also in the middle.

[Devin the Dude]

yeah, don't bother trying to avoid parking. you're still only paying $10 for a Flaming Lips show.

[geare213]

Every year except for last year you could walk right in at about 7 o clock for free. They would just open the gates and not check anyone for anything. And I always park for free there, it's about a 5-10 walk, easily worth it

[That70sdesperado]

You can easily find a spot along Via de la valle near the solana gate entrance or on the side streets. Only like a five minute walk. And i heard they have been charging for the shows, even if the races have ended. It's like 6 bucks. I'll be there for the lips for sure.

[ricardo san diego]

enough about flaming lips, lets get back to Street Scene. So it looks like no replacement. Is anyone going to rebut that or do we all finally agree

[goldfromla]

AGREE.

i could see them add someone like pretty small.

[ricardo san diego]

AGREE.

I would rather them have not even gotten PE and use those bills to ge another headliner. they arnt adding anybody els because tix sales are way down and they want to save those 50k because im guessing beastie boys cost 100k and PE costs 50k. its pretty much theft

[Devin the Dude]

public enemy live >>> beastie boys' carreer. and if you don't agree, i guess you missed them at coachella and better shut your mouth preemptively.

[goldfromla]

they were good at coachella, but id still much rather see bboys.

[Devin the Dude]

another related question -- did anyone see the beastie boys at coachella '03? this is what i'm basing my Public Enemy > Beastie Boys off of. because there is a clear winner.

[Ardentbiscuit]

This should be the new festival mantra:

"Either go or go not, no complain!"

[westcoastpirate]

You lost me

[Alligator Bogaloo]

SF Outside lands music festival replaced the B boys with Tenacious D, billed at the "greatest band in the world". Where the fuck is our Tenacious D! "Take 2 of the chicken mcnuggets and shove them up your ass."

[ricardo san diego]

unfortunatly SS is to cheap to get a cool replacement

[sames44]

[Ardentbiscuit]

Scroll to the bottom, last event listed.

[goldfromla]

Scroll to the bottom, last event listed.

then why the fuck doesnt street scene add them i mean its not like they will cost big money to get. beastie boys have to cancel and they think adding public enemy is significant enough to replace them. they owe us at least 2 or 3 more adds.

[hawkingvsreeve]

They dont owe you anything.

[wewantmuse]

they may not owe us anything, but it doesn't change the fact that their douchebags for not using the extra money from beastie boys on new adds.

there's a reason this festival isn't selling well..

[hawkingvsreeve]

Well you should send them an email with all of your concert promoting and booking tips. I am sure they would be very grateful.

[PJandBompton]

the reason it's not selling well is because it's fucking San Diego and people here only go for the big thing....no huge headliner, no huge crowd

[goldfromla]

Well you should send them an email with all of your concert promoting and booking tips. I am sure they would be very grateful.
your sarcasm is so cool it kills me

[hawkingvsreeve]

So, so cool.

[Sushov23]

the reason it's not selling well is because it's fucking San Diego and people here only go for the big thing....no huge headliner, no huge crowd

this isn't LA man, the reason it's only modestly selling is because are so laid back around here. People wait until the week of, or sometimes day of. Many of my friends are going, but they are waiting to buy tickets until the day of. I'm sure it's the case for many other people. Also, no new info to post. I get the impression they are just going along as is.

[Ardentbiscuit]

With Hard getting shut down and OSL announcing TD, now would be the perfect time for Street Scene to announce something stellar if they have any tricks up their sleeves.

[Egull]

they may not owe us anything, but it doesn't change the fact that their douchebags for not using the extra money from beastie boys on new adds.

there's a reason this festival isn't selling well..

Beastie Boys were a late addition at Street Scene anyway. A lot of people bought tickets before they were even announced.

[ThomThom]

I don't know what they are waiting for, they might as well announce Social D as the replacement.

[Ardentbiscuit]

I have this strange feeling they are going to add a few more.

[who8me2k7]

i'm sure theres 2-3 more adds left.

[goldfromla]

i'm sure theres 2-3 more adds left.

i want to agree with you but i just dont see it. I think if the festival only goes to 4-12 and they only have 5 stages with the number of artists they already have i dont see it happening unfortunetly.

[Pat24]

I have to include myself in that category of people.


And as far as lack of adds, I think the bands that would attract SD crowds and any other crowd to be honest have already been booked for that damn Reading and Leeds Festival.

[Alligator Bogaloo]

I rented a room at the Motel 6 in downtown SD for street scene since I'm coming from Phoenix, I guess its a new and improved motel 6. The rooms are crazy compared to most reg motel 6's. That orange wall is freakin' me out a little.

Orange is awesome.

[WhyTheLongFace]

I may be able to get a $50 ticket for Saturday so I may be there

[Ardentbiscuit]

So the after party DJ at Casbah is Chromeo..

Fri 28

Official Street Scene After Party - Chromeo DJ Set, Shark Attack DJ Set, DJ Atari $18

Sat 29

Official Street Scene After Party - No Age, Crocodiles, Wavves, PENS, Grafitti Island $15

And Mark Farina is on the 28th at Spin.

On top of the stuff I posted above happening at Voyeur, looks like it's going to be busy after the shows!

[wewantmuse]

apparently they're taking off fees this thursday and friday

they posted it on their facebook but quickly took it down.

I know this is going to sound lame, but one of the main reasons for me attending SS this year is Chromeo, so definitely going to check out the afterparty. Even though they'll probably just put their new DJ Kicks album on.

[Ardentbiscuit]

No fees is nice but they should also cut the price to $99 in that period. I think that would move a whole bunch of tickets.

[Alligator Bogaloo]

i haven't gotten my ticket yet but if this is true I'll probably go online and get it then. Might as well save a few $$$. I've been listening to Matt & Kim's album Grand. The album seems kinda short but I'm really interested in seeing their live show at sdss.

i saw matt and kim with cut copy and they put on one of the best live shows. they're so much fun, energetic, and they smile 95% of the time (which might sound retarded, but it's infectious). and they have hilarious banter between songs. i'd recommend anybody to see matt and kim. i just hope they don't conflict with cage the elephant, deerhunter, or girl talk.

[send me ctrpllrs]

That sucks that the discounted tickets are over, I never saw it. That was pretty much the only way I was going to buy tickets. Pretty sure I'll just skip out on it now. There's a few bands I want to see, but they are all ones I've seen before. Also ATP is not that far away, so I won't be asking for as many days off in a short period.

[Sexecutioner]

if you cant afford it, at least lurk around down there and try to sneak in. it cant be that hard if you have any sort of ninja skills.

[goldfromla]

yeah i agree. ive done it every year now its pretty sick

[Mean Mr Mustard]

yeah i agree. ive done it every year now its pretty sick

youve gotten in for free every year?

[Ardentbiscuit]

You snuck in even in the years they were in the parking lot of the stadium? I don't see how that would be possible.

I noticed that the "Wild at Work" code still works for the single day passes, lowers them to 55.25, not sure how much longer it will stay active though.

[Devin the Dude]

someone tell me how The Dead Weather is.

[Alligator Bogaloo]

Have only seen clips on youtube and their performance on Conan. They rock, hard. If you need more info, check out the dead weather thread. Also there cd is very good. Love the female lead singer that is also in The Kills.

[Devin the Dude]

the singles from the CD are awesome. the rest of the tracks are boring. this is why i want to see if they're any good live.

[westcoastpirate]

I'd rather have the Kills than the Dead Weather on the lineup

[Mean Mr Mustard]

someone tell me how The Dead Weather is.

this is probably THE show to watch at street scene. ive never even seen them but i have that much faith haha. just look at the people in the band

[Alligator Bogaloo]

Just got the email from sdss saying there are no fees if you buy your tickets today or tomorrow.

[westcoastpirate]

So there's a more detailed venue map up on the Street Scene website, solar powered stage?:

[PJandBompton]

FUCK did the zarabanda sound suck last year

not to mention it was packed as FUCK for MGMT, Atmosphere was also packed but those were the only two times i went over there...

Casbah stage was fucking sick last year...super easy to get close

[westcoastpirate]

The festival layout is so friendly for those over 21 in the main area, so awesome that if you want a drink you're not stuck way off in the back like Coachella.

anyone else see THAT last year? totally worth skipping DEVO.

[wewantmuse]

YES

man man was by far one of the best shows at street scene and one of the best i've ever seen.

[goldfromla]

YES

man man was by far one of the best shows at street scene and one of the best i've ever seen.

JUSTICE

[Mean Mr Mustard]

YES

cold war kids

[PJandBompton]

I had a baseball game so missed Cold War Kids, and watched part of DEVO then left for my birthday party...definitely regret not catching part of Man Man and STS9...

[ricardo san diego]

best shows last year were justice, nortec collective, and Hot Chip. Michael Franti was also great

[PJandBompton]

Justice fucking KILLED, heard Nortec coming in, and saw part of Michael Frantis set before GZA i believe? and thought he was really good

[PJandBompton]

Oh BTW, Grand Ole Party is no longer a band.

[anti-square]

Well isn't that shitty news.

[unknown]

I had a baseball game so missed Cold War Kids, and watched part of DEVO then left for my birthday party...definitely regret not catching part of Man Man and STS9...

I would love to catch STS9 again. They blew me away at their Lollapalooza after show at House of Blues this last Saturday. 2 hours and 45 minutes of pure awesomeness.

[anti-square]

Oh snap, Depeche Mode today in SD? I may need to go to this.

[sames44]

I'm there if I win free tickets, barring any unlikely fantastic adds that justify ticket price.

Let's all hold hands & share contest info. I know of:

Facebook & Twitter free ticket Fridays
SignOn San Diego
FM 94.9 Insiders

Anyone else? Please don't make me listen to channel 93.3.

Just found out Fox 5 San Diego has a contest as well - if you are over 21 and live in San Diego County http://www.fox5sandiego.com/community/contests/streetscene/

[liquidsnake28]

I would love to catch STS9 again. They blew me away at their Lollapalooza after show at House of Blues this last Saturday. 2 hours and 45 minutes of pure awesomeness.

Try to find a bootleg of their bonnaroo 07 late night set. I've seen them over 10 times and that's one of the best sets I've seen from them. Roo late night 05 was fucking awesome too.

[goldfromla]

i got my tickets today yes!

[PJandBompton]

Oh snap, Depeche Mode today in SD? I may need to go to this.

not so fast

[Sushov23]

So my friend is telling me to not expect any adds. Sad Panda. Hope the bastard is wrong.

[unknown]

not so fast

Yeah, I heard :( Is it cause of Dave's voice? I was gonna try to score tix last minute but my throat is killing me - I've been sick ever since returning from Lolla.

[wewantmuse]

So my friend is telling me to not expect any adds. Sad Panda. Hope the bastard is wrong.

you also said we should expect something good and we got public enemy

[Sushov23]

you also said we should expect something good and we got public enemy

So there is something wrong with Public Enemy? I said people with tickets would be happy about the add. Bitch all you want, P.E. is a good add.

[westcoastpirate]

Please Chromeo be playing while BEP is playing, please!

Seriously I doubt they'll play too late since their djing the afterparty at the Casbah, but I'm wishing for the best.

[wewantmuse]

nice to see them using the extra beastie boys' money appropriately.

[PJandBompton]

Yeah, I heard :( Is it cause of Dave's voice? I was gonna try to score tix last minute but my throat is killing me - I've been sick ever since returning from Lolla.

I assume they want him to rest and not miss the HB gigs so cancelling SD and SF wouldn't be as big of a deal compared to 2 HB shows...


nice to see them using the extra beastie boys' money appropriately.

Loss Recovery...

[brycerosen]

i wonder if depeche mode could get added to Friday there in Colorado the day before and have to be in Texas the next day, might be too tight of a schedule but maybe

[Ardentbiscuit]

DM specifically said they aren't rescheduling any canceled shows because their tour is too tight.

As for all this extra money people are talking about.

Even if the price is higher because of the Beasties, I don't think they sold nearly enough tickets to actually make all this extra money that people are talking about.

Didn't someone post that ticket sales are way down.

If you go to this and it's half empty like Detour last year then they obviously didn't make all this extra money people are talking about.

[luckyface]

You think a festival driven by Black Eyed Peas as the main headliner is not going to do well sales-wise? Perhaps you do not know how proud Street Scene is of their lineup.

Yeah, this festival is fucked.

Uh, I have tickets to this along with someone else. But you are right, "my" just jealous.

[westcoastpirate]

I think it's so funny that Street Scene organizers are so proud that BEP is playing the festival that they need to send out daily Facebook updates about how great BEP is. Most of the comments they receive in response are negative, and seem to be deleted.

It's all Hagey...Mays has stated that he is not a fan in multiple interviews...

[PassiveTheory]

Oh BTW, Grand Ole Party is no longer a band.

What the fuck? Really? Where'd you hear that from?

Fucking Hagey.

[PJandBompton]

What the fuck? Really? Where'd you hear that from?

It's been rumbling locally that there were problems, and recently it was "confirmed"...

Edit - (From CityBeat)

"Grand Ole Party has officially split, according to a source who’s worked closely with the band. Although their management has maintained that the band is still together and GOP have remained mum, the source, who prefers not to be identified, says the band decided to split shortly after returning from Atlanta, where they were working with producer Ben Allen on what would have been their second album. The source cited intra-band squabbles and singer Kristin Gundred’s desire to focus on her new project, Dum Dum Girls, as the reason for the split."

[RedThom]

On the upshot, I was privileged to see them once

[PJandBompton]

Saw some great shows from them at the Che...got to see em free to since i was working!

[goldfromla]

set times early this week. yes

[westcoastpirate]

set times early this week. yes

I was just wondering about that. Awesome.

[Alligator Bogaloo]

It's early this week.... set times please. Looking forward to being able to take the trolley to and from the festival this year, my motel is near the civic center stop. Also happy that sdss has a chunk of bands that were at Coachella this year and last. It will be nice to be able to see some of those bands a second time. I'm also happy to see they have a fifth stage to spread things out a little more. I hope there aren't too many set time conflicts. And why don't they have a cool poster listing all the bands for sale? They've had them in years past but not last year. I specifically looked to buy a poster last year but they didn't have any. This year they probably won't have one either. Very lame. Every other festival makes a poster, sdss should too.

[WhyTheLongFace]

Does anyone know of any cheap hotels/motels near by. The hotels the website offers are all $140+ a night. I just need a place to sleep my drunk ass Saturday night so I dont have to drive 2 hours home.

[Alligator Bogaloo]

The motel 6 in downtown sd has an internet rate of $75.00. per night.

[westcoastpirate]

So they've developed an iPhone app for Street Scene. I hope it's not a complete waste of time like the Coachella app. The Street Scene app is free until Aug 28th, after that it's $1.99. Lame.

[unknown]

The motel 6 in downtown sd has an internet rate of $75.00. per night.
Wait, what??? That's like half or more of your room rate, no?? Oh... so Micah... hey ummm you should like let me park at your motel and we ride the trolley together.

When is this available? I just did a search and did not find it unless I am just retarded. Is that it?

[westcoastpirate]

I got a notice on Facebook it was available then did a search and nothing came up in the iTunes app store. Don't know what's up.

The 500 West Hotel is super cheap but may be book? It's a very modern european hotel (small rooms w/ shared bathrooms) I used to stay here before I moved here and it's not bad at all especially for benders! located next to train & trolly station 866 315 4251

[westcoastpirate]

Try the hostel downtown, looks pretty nice and way cheap.

yeaah that was due to this internship i'm doing with Gabriel Giffords (local congresswoman)
they made me start working like the day lolla started so i had to cancel the whole trip :/
but hopefully i'll make it to SS!

are we going to have a meetup for the boardies?

[Alligator Bogaloo]

Wait, what??? That's like half or more of your room rate, no?? Oh... so Micah... hey ummm you should like let me park at your motel and we ride the trolley together.

Sorry, my sentence on the internet rate wasn't very clear. If you make a rsvp online at motel.com they have a cheaper rate of $75.00 per night. When you get the room, if you want to add wifi service, it's $2.99 per day.

Yeah, meeting up at the motel and taking the trolley together should be perfect. That way I won't have to walk around the festival, yelling your name, trying to find you, and looking like a loon.

I went to their website and it looks like a good place to stay, the rooms are cheaper but look really nice. They are smaller rooms and the bathroom is shared. So it just comes down to what you want in a room vs. what you want to pay. And if you're only there for one night it seems like a great deal all around.

[Jon Blazed]

Last year, with this same set up, the two main stages didn't conflict. They did more of a tag team/back and forth style. So, Thievery Corp will probably close out the one stage and about two minutes later MIA will start at the other stage.

[Jon Blazed]

BANG BANG

i guess my question then is:
will there be someone playing opposite MIA/BEP?

[pancakespancakes]

Money's really tight for me right now... I think I'm only going Friday. The only bands I really want to see Saturday are No Age (seeing them the next weekend already, seen them twice so far this year), Of Montreal, Los Campesinos, and The Dead Weather. The latter three are certainly not worth sixty bucks. Tickets are outrageous this year. Pass.

[Alligator Bogaloo]

i guess my question then is:
will there be someone playing opposite MIA/BEP?

yes the two or three other stages will have bands playing while someone is on the main stage. this is the way they had it set up last year.

[unknown]

yeaah that was due to this internship i'm doing with Gabriel Giffords (local congresswoman)
they made me start working like the day lolla started so i had to cancel the whole trip :/
but hopefully i'll make it to SS!

are we going to have a meetup for the boardies?

awww man - well good for you with the internship but you missed a fun weekend! Hopefully you do make it to SS!

I am definitely down for a meet up. Once the set times are out maybe those who want to meet up can all give some input as to what time they'd like to meet - maybe there is a show we all plan on catching or something.


Sorry, my sentence on the internet rate wasn't very clear. If you make a rsvp online at motel.com they have a cheaper rate of $75.00 per night. When you get the room, if you want to add wifi service, it's $2.99 per day.

Yeah, meeting up at the motel and taking the trolley together should be perfect. That way I won't have to walk around the festival, yelling your name, trying to find you, and looking like a loon.

That makes much more sense about the internet rates. haha

You'll look like a loon regardless, Micah but it sounds like a plan!


BANG BANG
I'll be far from that mess.

Oh no! You should try craigslist that week or on Friday or even Saturday! I know last year I found tickets for my friend and I on the day of for a lot cheaper than face. Just a thought...

So still no set times or iphone app. Maybe tomorrow....

[westcoastpirate]

So still no set times or iphone app. Maybe tomorrow....

For the record, I do not consider Wednesday to be 'early in the week'.

[send me ctrpllrs]

I've got my tickets for both after parties at the Casbah. Not my Street Scene tickets yet though. I may end up only going friday as well. Saturday I really only want to see Los Campesinos! and No Age, and I've got No Age at the Casbah and ATP.

[westcoastpirate]

I just got tickets for the Chromeo afterparty.

Release the f'ing schedule, jeez!

[Alligator Bogaloo]

Release the f'ing schedule, jeez!

Yes, I'm annoyed too they haven't released it yet. They shouldn't have put up a message on their facebook page saying it was going to be early this week if it isn't. Here is some more bs from the facebook page today.

Keep this a positive community?!?!?!?! wtf. it's their fault for saying the set list would be out and it's not yet. plus they have bep headlining and they didnt replace the b boys. Here's a thought sdss. don't create a facebook page if you can't take the heat and don't tell us info and then not give us the info. and if sf outside lands music fest can get tenacious d to replace the b boys you guys can sure as hell find a band in L.A. to replace the b boys. hell, at the last minute last year you got devo to replace the black crowes. I'm just glad they have a good undercard with a lot of Coachella bands that i'll be able to see for a second time.

[westcoastpirate]

Keep this a positive community?!?!?!?!...

Every time there is a Street Scene update on Facebook, they delete the negative comments and post 'keep this a positive community'.

What I really want to know is if I'm in San Diego Thurs, will the box office be open to exchange tickets for wristbands instead of waiting in line Friday?

I also agree they shouldn't post the schedule will be out early in the week if they can't get the schedule posted early in the week.

Edit: Earlier in the day whoever runs the Street Scene Facebook page posted 'lol any minute' in response to a comment about when the set times would be released. This was 7 hours ago.

[goldfromla]

yeah their announcement about early this week and its now wednesday night makes me mad.

[goldfromla]

iphone app reaady via their facebook

[goldfromla]

unfortunetly i dont have an iphone or an ipod touch it says set times avalible on app came someone post them once downloaded thanks so much.

Just quoting so people don't have to go back a page.

[Boourns]

I take my last post back after seeing the Saturday set times. Los Campesinos vs Of Montreal vs Public Enemy is brutal. Sharon Jones closing the night is badass, though.

[PJandBompton]

Conflicts aren't bad, some overlapping, of course, but not bad. Now I kind of wish I could go.

Awful conflicts for me. Awful.

Can someone explain to me how the FUCK Public Enemy and Busta are playing at the same time? Really?

[PJandBompton]

and how the hell did Cage the Elephant and Delta Spirit get those spots?

[unknown]

Of Montreal turn around to Silversun turn around to The Dead Weather is sweet.

God damn this app really sucks though. Organized by time and not by stage is lame and what's the point of having a little star you can highlight if there is no "my schedule" option? I will definitely be using the schedule they hand out.

[Boourns]

Awful conflicts for me. Awful.

Can someone explain to me how the FUCK Public Enemy and Busta are playing at the same time? Really?

Oh yeah, that's messed up. Like Vegoose putting PE versus Cypress Hill. I wonder if Public Enemy is still doing It Takes a Nation sets.

[westcoastpirate]

I gotta say I'm sooper bummed about Chromeo/Deerhunter conflict

...and Dead Weather, the Faint and LA Riots conflict.

off the top disappointed to miss The Faint and LA Riots, would catch some of BEP...terrible scheduling IMO with so many small bands getting late spots and clusterfucks from the top of the lineup in the middle of the day

The end of the nights are horrible, I understand Bassnectar, but other than that what were they thinking? I'm sure it'll be fun anyway.

[carlosmason]

Street Scene iPhone app is on itunes and looks awesome !

[PJandBompton]

Street Scene iPhone app is on itunes and looks awesome !

Really? Does it have set times?

[westcoastpirate]

Does anyone find it really annoying that the Street Scene app keeps asking you to turn on your Current Location after you hit cancel?

[zenidogx]

I wanted to go to Street Scene, but that Los Campesinos!/ Of Montreal conflict killed it for me. I wanted to say farewell to Aleks Campesinos!, but not seeing Of Montreal would mean I'm not getting my money's worth.

[Mean Mr Mustard]

carney is playing both days?

[Alligator Bogaloo]

carney is playing both days?

It's gotta be a mistake. their friday 4:40 to 5:20 at zarabanda stage works. their saturday 8:00 to 9:00 at fulana stage doesn't work because dead weather will rocking the fulana stage from 7:30 to 8:30.

[Blinken]

I'm wondering why the last act on the main stages on Saturday ends at 10:40.

Interesting, that is time for one last act. Is that just the whole left by the Beasties. To not even put a band on during that spot is crazy. There has to be some secret act or something.

[pancakespancakes]

There is definitely a Saturday headliner still in the works. Not sure if they will follow through on it, but it is very conscipuous. The Fulana stage isn't even the "main stage," they use the Fulano stage as the main, technically. And of course that stops at 9:35. Someone has to be playing the Fulano from 10:40-12.

I don't care because I'm not going that day anyway, but maybe I will if it's someone I'd love to see.

[pancakespancakes]

Here's a little schedule I doodled:

Friday
Dungen (Green) 5:30-6:15
Devendra Banhart (Fulana) 6:15-6:30
Wavves (Casbah) 6:30-6:50
Holy Fuck (Green) 6:50-7:15
Matt & Kim (Casbah) 7:15-7:55
Deerhunter (Casbah) 8:15-9:00
Chromeo (Zarabanda) 9:00-9:30
Modest Mouse (Fulana) 9:40-10:15
Calexico (Casbah) 10:30-11:45

Too many conflicts! I like that everyone is playing the Casbah Stage though, that's the best stage. I also love that Calexico is getting a nice long set time. I will have a fun day.

[PassiveTheory]

On the upshot, I was privileged to see them once

Twice, here. Fucking shame, brilliant band; best thing about San Diego music in a long time.

[unknown]

What is this talk about Saturday main stage headliner stuff? MIA is on the Fulano closing, no? Am I missing something here cause to me it seems that this is it.

[unknown]

Oh, I see... The post with the set times in this thread is not the same as the set times on the app. MIA is listed from 10:45 to 11:45 on the Fulano on the app.

[westcoastpirate]

They changed the schedule

[unknown]

Serious? It just came out. The app is getting deleted unless some necessary updates are made.

[westcoastpirate]

Serious. MIA ended at 10:40pm prior to this morning.

Silversun Pickups now conflict with the Faint as well.

[Mean Mr Mustard]

they really gotta fix the wavves devendra conflict

[IdiotequeThom]

ugh, can someone please repost the set times?

[westcoastpirate]

[westcoastpirate]

They've got Carney playing twice, so I don't know what's going down.

[sames44]

If you don't have tickets yet, they're doing the "no service fees" thing again today & tomorrow.

Glad I didn't buy tickets. With the exception of Deerhunter and Of Montreal, every other band I would want to see overlaps with another.

because they're really friggin good.

Black Joe Lewis & The Honebears were fun in Chicago. They popped my Lolla cherry in the rain and all but I have a feeling they will be more fun at Street Scene. This whole set times on the app only is very stupid.

[Jman4321]

Wow every single thing overlaps for me too.

[wewantmuse]

i'm another hoping for some set times overhaul.. didn't think they could disappoint anymore..

So it looks like Street Scene had a nice 25 year run, eh?

[westcoastpirate]

The following questions are for people who attended last year:
1. How long of a wait is it to get in the festival?
2. How long of a wait to get beers?
3. Is the setup much different than last year? Which would make it much quicker to buy beers?

On Friday I arrived when MGMT was on and it took like 10 minutes to get in. Saturday was a breeze, arrived early in the day - by 430 or 500 and it took a few minutes.

I went to the micro brew beer garden when the sun was setting on both days (more or less, can't really remember) and it was a few minutes to get into the garden, you purchase your voucher tickets for samples then just walk up to the booth for samples. I heard getting the other beer in the other gardens was a pain though.

The set up looks different because the beer area is by the 2 main stages and looks to be pretty large. This may be from the length of time it took people last year to purchase beer and so beer drinkers didn't have to be so far from the music.

I'm just hoping they have micros in that section too.

Thanks for the info!

It looks like they have that huge over 21 area for the 2 main stages this year, a microbrew area and a margarita area. I thought something was posted a while back that to get a drink last year took forever outside the microbrew area, so I'm hoping they worked out those kinks.

Also, what were the drink prices?

[unknown]

Yeah, I remember reading that too. Not sure on the drink prices - the micros were like 10 or 12 bucks for 8 samples? It's kinda hazy...

Haha, cool thanks.

[gazercmh]

I spent a lot of time in the micro brew area last year and don't remember the lines being too bad. The lines were longer at the main beer garden, and they didn't have any micro beers there. Seems like it was just BudweiserMillerCoors crap.

[Ardentbiscuit]

Who cares about food and drink prices?

UNLIMITED INS AND OUTS!

What are the closest bar options near Street Scene?

[summerkid]

What are the closest bar options near Street Scene?

sooooo many its right in the gaslamp quarter which has a ton of bars and restaurants.

[westcoastpirate]

sooooo many its right in the gaslamp quarter which has a ton of bars and restaurants.

I'm talking about you walk outside the entrance and there's one right across the street. No time to waste based on this crappy schedule.

its pretty much right there.

[pancakespancakes]

So it looks like Street Scene had a nice 25 year run, eh?

:nono

We say that (insert number of year-run) every year. Except last year I guess.

[Jon Blazed]

It sucks that MIA is only on an hour...

[unknown]

You won't be saying that after an hour of repeated gunshots and airhorns.

[GrossMagic]

You won't be saying that after an hour of repeated gunshots and airhorns.

well put

[WhyTheLongFace]

Horrible Sat set times. The only group that I want to see that I could see a full set is The Dead Weather. EVery shit overlaps or conflicts

[GrossMagic]

anyone else have a press pass/ photo pass for street scene? we should meet up!

[brycerosen]

fuck those set times suck !

Chromeo 8:30-9:30 Zarabanda
Cake 8:35-9:35 Fulano
Nortec Collective 9:15-10:00 Green

My top 2 of the weekend overlap and also wanted to see nortec collective

[Ardentbiscuit]

I thought the set time weren't 100% finalized yet.

[SDsoldier7]

It sucks that MIA is only on an hour...

considering that 30 minutes will be air horns. yea, that sucks.

[Ardentbiscuit]

I'm hoping she has a new noise. First time gun shots, second time air horns..

Hopefully this time it will be something like maybe a baby screaming (since she had a kid) or fingernails on a chalk board.

[SDsoldier7]

then maybe for the next 30 minutes she will call fans from the crowd to the stage......thinking shes all fresh and shit. then she will rock paper planes and peace out.

[goldfromla]

where the fuck are the set times on the website.

[SDsoldier7]

i couldnt find them either?

im guessing people got emails....

[Ardentbiscuit]

As of right now set times are only in the I phone ap and I don't have an I phone. :(

Sucks!

[goldfromla]

i couldnt find them either?

im guessing people got emails....

im on the mailing list and the only emails ive recieved this week ones about the no service fees etc. i will guess monday morning they will be posted on the site

[SDsoldier7]

[Jon Blazed]

You won't be saying that after an hour of repeated gunshots and airhorns.

Don't get it twisted...

[unknown]

Yes. We posted them based off the iPhone app.

[goldfromla]

Yes. We posted them based off the iPhone app.

well thanks for the post. really appreciate it!

[zenidogx]

hmm . . . now Saturday is tempting me again.

LC! --> of Montreal --> Dead Weather --> Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings is worth admission. And then some No Age and Silversun Pickups is a bonus. But finding a way to get there is gonna be a bitch.

Yeah, I thought the same thing. There's enough to make me want to go. May check out Sharon Jones, may head down to the Casbah before everybody else is leaving the festival too.

Totally agree

[summerkid]

Totally agree

who the hell do you guys want to see? you guys need to get some taste. Saturday im able to see MIA, Thievery Corporation, Dead Weather, Of Montreal, Silversun Pickups and some Public Enemy.

Friday the only problems i have are wavves vs holy fuck and conor overlapping with deerhunter.

dont tell them about taste... you are seeing MIA... LOSER

[digitaldragon03]

This festival starts way too late. 2 acts per day start at 4:30pm, and the rest of the stages start after 5:00pm. If they just started the festival earlier, they would avoid the conflicts between the small amount of good acts they have on the lineup.

[westcoastpirate]

Friday:
Band of Horses vs Holy Fuck
Deerhunter vs Chromeo
Missing 1/2 of Nortec Collective for Chromeo
Missing 1/2 of Modest Mouse for Nortec Collective

Saturday:
Silversun Pickups vs the Faint vs LA Riots
I still don't understand Public Enemy overlapping with Busta Rhymes
Bassnectar vs Sharon Jones vs MIA

I don't dig splitting sets like many people here, I want to see the band from beginning to end. But Street Scene's schedule forces split sets.

[Alligator Bogaloo]

A few days more to fiddle with the schedule... I always try to get full sets.

Friday.
Trombone Shorty - 5:05 - 5:45 (full set)
Dungen - 5:30 - 6:15 (partial set)
Band of Horses - 6:40 - 7:25 (full set)
Matt & Kim - 7:15 - 7:55 (partial set)
Deerhunter - 8:15 - 9:00 (full set)
Modest Mouse - 9:35 - 10:35 (full set)
Calexico - 10:40 - 11:50 (full set)

Saturday. (all full sets)
Black Joe Lewis - 4:30 - 5:05
Los Campesinos! - 5:30 - 6:10
Of Montreal - 6:40 - 7:25
Silversun Pickups - 7:30 - 8:30
The Dead Weather - 8:35 - 9:35
Bassnectar - 10:10 - 11:40

[SDsoldier7]

hmm . . . now Saturday is tempting me again.


same here. there are a lot of plus's. ins n outs being one of them. 90 min bassnectar closing set is another.

6:40-7:25 Band of Horses
8:30-9:30 Chromeo
9:30-10:00 Nortec Collective
10:00-10:35 Modest Mouse
10:35-11:15 Girl Talk (never seen him live, curious to check it out, saw some from afar at Coachella)
Take off for Chromeo afterparty

Saturday
5:10-5:30 Ra Ra Riot
5:30-6:10 Los Campesinos!
6:40-7:25 Of Montreal
7:45-8:45 LA Riots (going to try and check out some Silversun and Faint prior, but seen both of them before)
8:45-9:35 Dead Weather
9:40-10:40 Thievery Corporation
10:40-11:40 Bassnectar
11:40-maybe check out MIA encore?

Since there are ins-and-outs, may hit up a bar nearby during a break. Heard of a place called the Corner pretty close with $4 PBR tall cans and cheap Jager shots.

[SDsoldier7]

good idea to catch girl talk.

where is the chromeo after party?

lots of good bars in down town. shouldnt be a prob.

Silversun Pickups vs The Faint
Of Montreal, and only to hear The Past is a Grotesque Animal

There are a couple others I might see, but I would not bother if there was anything remotely decent on at the same time.

Hmmm, perhaps you can point me to where I insinuated they were alike.

[unknown]

I just saw Deerhunter a couple weeks ago at Lolla, the last time I saw Chromeo was at Coachella in 2008 and it's still a no brainer for me.

[TommyboyUNM]

Hmmm, perhaps you can point me to where I insinuated they were alike.

You didn't, but you did say this...


There are like 8 bands I want to see and 7 conflict. Great job, SS.

Which leads me to believe that you somehow feel like Street Scene messed up in putting Deerhunter and Chromeo on at the same time. When, in a logical world, putting Deerhunter and Chromeo against each other makes quite a bit of sense.

Uh, no, that doesn't mean that all. How does my being disappointed that bands I want to see conflict insinuate that I think Chromeo and Deerhunter are similar artists? Sorry man, you were really reaching.

[westcoastpirate]

Silversun vs the Faint, Public Enemy overlapping with Busta Rhymes (even though it's not a major overlap), these are Busch League mistakes.
