Not too bad of a line up!

This is the second year of Aoki's festival? right?

[tmac]

ill be at outside lands, but i hope cut copy and the twelves get added to OL

[Derekx]

Cut Copy, !!!, Phantogram, and Fred Falke? I'm down.

[scenicworld]

very tempting.

[Gribbz]

Definitely gonna try to go to this.

I wonder if they'll add anyone good...

[luckyface]

I am definitely in, even if Aoki put this together. It is looking nice with Cut Copy, !!!, and Phantogram alone.

[Gribbz]

How's the venue?

[scenicworld]

I was checking it out on google maps and it seems like it's just in a dried brush field...

here

looks like lots of open space though, I guess. not sure how all 4 stages would be set up.

[scenicworld]

I picked up the $50 Dawn Patrol tickets ($55.74 after fees)
after those are gone it's $75 for early bird, $85 for advance GA and $95 at the door

[Gribbz]

Oh, it's where Lightning in a Bottle is held.

[choice cat]

Those tickets are super pricey wow

[Drinkey McDrinkerstein]

Oh, it's where Lightning in a Bottle is held.

Yeah, they also hold the Hootenanny here.

[mmsk123]

Those tickets are super pricey wow

$50? Doesn't seem too bad. Totally thinking about this for Cut Copy/The Twelves/Fred Falke/Phantogram

Edit: The $200 VIP hosted bar tix - does that mean open bar/all drinks free or something else?

[DFrank]

I missed out The Twelves and Phantogram so I might be in for this...a little pricey for a mid-tier lineup though.

Is Cut Copy not doing a tour? I want to see them on their own.

[JorgeC]

i'm in for $50. at $75 i woulda passed. A Cut Copy ticket is around $30 anyway so $20 more is a no-brainer for an all day fest. Superhumanoids FTW!!

[jazzz]

I seen this OC bro-fest brewing and decided to make the drive to Arizona for Cut Copy instead.

[Coachella Bound]

i can see this not selling too well... but none the less i already bought two tix. Early bird tix are pretty much 50% off ($50 instead of $95) - nor brainer for Cut Copy.

but the steep, normal GA tix, have me wondering just who Steve A could pull to justify $95

[Justin170]

Where are the nearest hotels?

[Wheres the beef?]

Good call!

[getbetter]

Fuck i want to go to this so bad, but i really just want to see cut copy.Knowing my luck I'll get drunk sometime this week and end up buying a ticket .Then a week later they will announce a Fox Pomona show.

[DFrank]

What JorgeC said is about right, Cut Copy tickets will probably be $30+ to watch them alone.

I'm done contemplating about this one, im going. It says more artists added each week so we might get something else that's good.

[getbetter]

Yeah but it's a full set+encore for sure when u see Cut Copy by themselves,better sound quality most likely, more fans of cut copy going crazy,and plus it's $20 cheaper(that's close to another show of a band i really want to see like Kurt Vile).

[Coachella Bound]

This is Cut Copy's only Orange County show, and they're coming off an incredible performance at Coachella. Not to mention the location for this event is remarkable, should it be done correctly.

and id pay $10 for !!! and $10 for the Growlers... so there you go, your going.

[sidsjiff]

How hot will it get there in Silverado in August?

[Coachella Bound]

90+

it can get as hot as 100, usually a nice breeze off od the lake though, and there are plenty of trees and shade.

[arsgunner]

if i wasn't going to OSL then i'd probably go..better than average lineup considering where it's at

[TonyPerkis]

I'd go if I didn't have a buddy's wedding to go to that day. the $50 tickets right now aren't a bad deal but frankly I don't see why anyone would pay $100 for a GA ticket to this. If I remember correctly last year (the festival's first) at Triangle Square you could buy a VIP ticket (open bar) for $100 pretty much right up to the date of the festival. And bro-fest for sure..Actually I think that's exactly what Tunney and those guys are going for.

[PlayaDelWes]

So this is 18+? Interesting.

[Coachella Bound]

while i agree this fest is attempting to attract a certain genre or group of individuals, it seems like w/ the move to the canyon its going to be less bros and ho's and more of a hipster type community... which is plenty cool w/ me. Also love the 18+ factor, but curious to see how strict theyll end up being on ids.
