The Official Fuck Yeah Fest V Thread

[bmack86]

I love their poster art. Last year was designed by Raymond Pettibon!

[apostle2]

I have the sneaking suspicion that they are going to push back the announcement again. Hope I'm wrong...

[Boourns]

Yeah, same here

[Sushov23]

fucking bastards!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Boourns]

Apparently "tomorrow" is the new "never"

[Boourns]

Myspace profile says:

F YEAH FEST / TOUR we will announce the fest tonight... probably pretty late but it will go up tonight

Good to know.

[Sushov23]

so in the next 6 hours? fucking about time bitches, i've been holding out on this. Remember boourns if I wind up going we are getting high together on some good weed, during Asobi.

[apostle2]

Do we think it will go up on the myspace profile first?

[woogie846]

When they say late tonight, do they mean in the PM?

[Boourns]

I'm guessing AM.

[Sushov23]

Still no fucking announcement? shit. Fuck you fuck yeah fest. No I'm kidding, you got Asobi, maybe holy fuck, and everyone else that is playing this.

[Sushov23]

GUESS it is tomorrow. WEAK.

[Boourns]

If they're waiting for a last minute confirmation, just let it be an "addition". Jesus.

[Boourns]

No Age, Negative Approach, Dan Deacon, Polvo, Fucked Up, Two Gallants, Ladyhawk, David Vandervelde, Matt & Kim, Glass Candy, Mika Miko, Sex/Vid, Monotonix, Strange Boys, Hit me Back, Crystal Antlers, Nodzzz + so many more…. We will announce it all tomorrow and yes, the LA Scavenger Hunt will be happening on Fuck Yeah Fest weekend. ....

Here is a stupid photo of us and crystal antlers in todays LA Times... We will be doing a Fuck Yeah Tour up the coast with Fucked Up, Strange Boys, Crystal Antlers + 1 more band from NYC that we are in "LOVE" with starting August 31st.

[hammerandasickle]

[Sushov23]

thanks. don't worry man, asobi will be on there. Hey you've never seen Asobi live?

[Boourns]

Nope

[woogie846]

cool, two gallants are playing.

[bmack86]

Glass Candy! No Age! Dan Deacon! Polvo! Crystal Antlers! Negative Approach!

So stoked.

[apostle2]

right now, for me this is good, but not great. I would still definitely go because of the proximity and price, but I was really looking for Asobi and Melvins...

Hopefully they are in the bunch of bands tomorrow

[bmack86]

C'mon, they do a two day festival. They're going to have more big name.

I wonder if No Age headline a stage this year. Last year they played right before Deerhunter on the main stage.

[Sushov23]

Bmack you went last year right? about how long did each band get to play for?

[Backwater]

It's interesting how popular some bands are in LA yet nobody has even heard of them on the east coast. No Age, for example. Since I just recently moved here the only announced artistis I've heard of are the Circle Jerks, Dan Deacon, the Dillinger 4 (and No Age just from Bmack talking about them) yet I'm sure most of them are really popular in LA.

Did anyone see The Melvins at Amoeba? I really, really hope they're announced tomorrow because I missed it. I would like to see Asobi as well.

[bmack86]

Bmack you went last year right? about how long did each band get to play for?

Early bands played half an hour, the two pre-headliners had about 45-50 minutes, and then the headliners played for quite awhile. I think Deerhunter did about an hour and ten.

It might have been that short because, on the day I remember, No Age and Jay Reatard were the two sub-headliners, and they typically play short sets.

Circle Jerks are local punk royalty. Dan Deacon's fairly well known. Negative Approach and Polvo are both older bands that are getting back together, with Negative Approach being a really small oldschool hardcore band and Polvo being an early 90s indie guitar rock band. Other than that, they're all pretty small bands, so none of them are that popular.

I wonder how popular No Age are. I feel like I'm in a little bubble where people think the world of them, but that a majority of indie kids don't really know them.

[Boourns]

Hopefully set times are longer this year. New venue new schedule! Or a stage dedicated to Asobi Seksu would be epic.

[Ardentbiscuit]

So where did consequences of sound get this initial line up?

No Age, Negative Approach, Dan Deacon, Polvo, Fucked Up, Two Gallants, Ladyhawk, David Vandervelde, Matt & Kim, Glass Candy, Mika Miko, Sex/Vid, Monotonix, The Strange Boys, Hit Me Back, Crystal Antlers, Nodzzz
