But yeah, we're going to need something to do since PHISH IS RUINING THE FESTIVAL WITH SETBREAKS!

And, Fluf, I agree. Arrested Development is an all-timer. I'm trying to explain this to Sneake, who is the defender of TPB.

First of all, even if the hour break was at the request of Phish, ya'll have no one to blame but Shap/Frey. They were clearly willing to bend to Trey's jedi mind tricks in order to secure Phish. And, in my opinion, it was well worth it.
Secondly, let's stop pretending that Lockn' operates under some kind of strict moral code that has gone untarnished for the three previous years. For better or worse, shit with this festival has changed over the first three years. Remember when artists were supposed to get full sets? Yeah, now we have a lot of bands only playing for an hour, some even less. And what about Lockn's golden rule? Ya know, no overlapping sets? We had latenight overlaps last year and we'll have them again this year. I'm not keen on these changes, but I understand why they happened.

But a big thank you to The Other One for stepping up and taking on a promotion in 2016. He's been integral to keeping the clutter and spam off of this board.
And, of course, my better half, Sneake, whom I love dearly. He's the guy that keeps this place on point.
Moderation aside, it really is the individual members that make this forum what it is. You guys are way nicer and more helpful than I am. The dedication of our regulars is remarkable, especially considering some of them won't even be in attendance this year (will be pouring 40s on the curb in their honor - they have curbs at Lockn', right?).
You're all beautiful people.

The ticket pricing isn't helping the single day sales, either. One day costs nearly half as much as a weekend pass.
A single day ticket for Thursday is $79 before fees, once you factor in parking, you're looking at an actual cost of like $100. No offense to this awesome line-up, but I don't see many people dropping $100 for a Thursday ticket.
A single day ticket for Sunday is $129 before fees, comes to basically $150 when you're done. Again, considering Sunday doesn't have a latenight, I don't see the relative value in buying a single for Sunday.

Also, Starr Hill's Northern Lights is good in my book.

Is that one Tweezer or five Tweezers?
Phish.net scores it as 5, but personally I consider it 1.

It's nothing but crack rocks and donut holes from now until Thursday.

And I actually enjoy BDTNL as a jam-vehicle. But I've gotten it literally 7 times in my 11 shows. By far, my most heard song. Well, depending on how you count Tweezers ...

I'll admit, The Waterfall was a bit underwhelming. It isn't bad, but it lacks stand-out tracks. It does, however, play better live.
I strongly recommend that you give Circuital another shot. That record has really grown on me. Holdin' On to Black Metal, Victory Dance, Outta My System ... these tracks kill it both studio and in person.
