Mockn Lockn 2017

Unless the mock is right and JRAD doesn't play that night.

Of course. Still, just sayin.

I feel ya, man.

But, late nights are the shits!  It REQUIRES some jammin', crazy, freak-out band to do right. It's where the puddin' gets cooked.

Lockin' has done a great job of putting the right bands there in almost every case. JRAD, Lettuce, Umphrey's McGee, Gov't Mule.  These are the right late night guys.

Some undercards can work, others really can't (they're suited to afternoons).  John Butler, Krasnos, etc., just no good for late night (IMHO).  I'd be on the fence about Greensky or Pidgeons on late night. Might work, maybe not.

"World beat" on late night?  No, please NO!  It would be ruined.

Are the two nights listed for WSP and SCI a definate?

You know, it seems to be that was part of the official announcement of the original lineup, but I went and check the site and I don't see it there.  Not on FB either.

My fear is, all these bands, plus more to come, could eat into double sets of bands we (I) really want to see. Assuming they stick to late start Thursday.

i hope it is UM and Mule instead of WSP and SCI

I didnt even think JRAD had two guaranteed sets. I mean, I am assuming it but I didnt think it was a definate. I checked the puzzle and it did not say.

Yeah, JRAD was announced as 2 sets right from the get go but you are correct Bird700level that it doesn't say that anywhere.

Schedule updated to include the Biscuits. That was the last open slot that I had except for the Rockn to Lockn winners. Assuming that the last night acts happen it looks certain that have to extend the music into Thursday and maybe begin to compress set lengths...

This is why I think there's a good chance the Q is the Saturday headliner, just because that time is already accommodated.
