SXSW is great and this will be my 4th year doing it free. You can get a wristband or a badge but they cost too much money IMO and would prefer just going to the free parties.

Fader fort, spotify house, vans house and some others are free and are going to be great.

ACL just put up their full lineup and it rivals Lolla's for worst lineup.

I'll probably go for outkast, chromeo, st Vincent, the replacements, chvrches, and juanes but goddamn it's just a bad lineup overall.

It's real bad but Pearl Jam and Beck would have improved Lolla's "headliners."

People I know IRL are getting crazy excited for Eminem. I don't even know what is real anymore.

That is laughably bad. The only thing worse is South Florida's Sun Fest.

Lorde is one weekend because C3 was kinda embarrassed that weekend 2 took so long to sell out last year. They just had her in Austin for a sold out show, so I guess it's what they are willing to try. Dont know if it is related, but they had some movement in their festival marketing department early this year.

Yeah this makes sense but I feel like its almost backfiring now. People seem to be confused about which weekend to go to and neither weekend has sold out yet, which I think is the first time this has happened for ACL in a while. Its kinda sad the direction this festival has gone IMO.

What's up fellow (soon to be) Boston goon!

Here's the day to day lineup, which was just released today:

Friday:

Future Islands
Neutral Milk Hotel
The National

Saturday:

Clifflight
S.Carey
Sky Ferreira
Bleachers
The Hold Steady
Volcano Choir
Girl Talk
Childish Gambino
Lorde

Sunday:

Gentlemen Hall
San Fermin
White Denim
The War On Drugs
Lake Street Dive
Twenty One Pilots
The 1975
Spoon
The Replacements
Nas x The Roots

Sunday has the best lineup for sure, so I'll probably just go to that one. Friday is mighty tempting with NMH and The National though...

Don't sleep on Future Islands man. They are fantastic.
