last year marked the first time the our beloved festival became a two-weekend creature. for that reason, goldenvoice probably decided to make the best of it and capitalize while bands were in town by putting on a barrage of shows throughout several venues.
*considering that some shows from this year’s line-up have already been scheduled (phoenix in vegas [for $35, no less!], the postal service in vegas and san luis obispo, and new order and johnny marr at the santa barbara bowl), i’m thinking there is a very high likelihood that there are more to come.
if this does indeed happen again (which here’s hoping that it does), which artist (and appropriate venue, if you’re so inclined) do you think are most likely to happen?
my wishlist:
café tacvba @ anywhere!
violent femmes @ the orpheum
franz ferdinand @ the fonda
lou reed @ the orpheum
dead can dance @ the orpheum
vampire weekend @ the fox theater
how to destroy angels @ clubnokia
modest mouse @ the fox theater
major lazer @ the echoplex
poliça @ the echo
OMD @ clubnokia
below is a graphic from last year's shows...
