Less than 3 weeks away and we're still waiting for the bulk of the show announcements. This year is strange. There will be no Spotify House, no Hype Hotel, and no Fader Fort. Those are 3 huge multi-day/night showcases. I'm not sure where all these bands are going to be playing.
Showtime is back at Clive this year, though. Last year they were hyping "Roadies". That didn't work out so well. This year it's something called "I'm Dying up Here". I saw Big Thief there last year. The whole bar is mostly people wanting to see and be seen so there was no crowd in front by the band. I got a good spot and enjoyed the set. When I left the line to get in was ridiculous, though.
The best bands are early on Wednesday so that's good. At 4pm is The Wild Reeds who we saw open for Langhorne Slim at Scoot Inn. I liked them. Right before them at 3pm is a duo out of L.A. that is signed to Epic Records. I like them, too.
