No guest this week but we run through some announcements, voicemails, and a story about a boy and his tent and where it should have been.
Jam Cruise 10 lineup was released, the lineup looks pretty solid. Only thing to complain about this year is there are only 2 stops scheduled. Both in cities we haven’t really heard of or understand. If you’ve got some experience with these cities leave us a comment on the blog or a voicemail as we would love feedback.
We’ve been covering a lot of the “untz” lately and this episode is no different. There were some more additions added to Camp Bisco 10. Pack your flatbrim and get ready to dance your ass off till the sunrise!
There’s a new festival with a new concept called Identity. All the details haven’t been released yet but the basic concept is a group of electronic style bands are going to get together and play venues that they normally wouldn’t be able to fill on their. So far tDB, Pretty Lights, and DJ Shadow have been announced as participants. More bands are expected as well as more details, stay tuned.
The Finger Lakes Grass Roots Festival has been announced. This festival has been going on for over 20 years, TWoL recommends checking it out if you can. Don’t forget to leave us a lot report if you do!
Finally we get around to the story about a boy, his tent, and a pile of wook vomit. Unfortunately it happened to TWoLs’ very own Steve this last weekend at the Jibberjazz festival. The festival was great, but the wookery was not. Better luck next time Steve!
As always we go through all the voicemails we receive, thank you to all that left us one! The number to the voicemail box is 419-NO-WOOKS make sure to hit us up if you see any live music or if you’re just bored and wanna vent.
Last but not least we have a poll running right now, make sure to leave your vote on how you did with Phish leg 2 onsale. You can either click this link to get to the poll or scroll down in your browser.
Thank you everyone for your support, we’ll see you next week on lot!

Funny you guys mention going to a show when everyone else backs out. Last Sunday Soulive played at the free bird in Jax beach. After a weekend of raging in the sun by day and partying with the fritz by night (fritzmusic.com)Everyone was pooped and myself and 1 other friend chargd it, needless to say it was an awesome show and im soooo glad we went.

two notes, you didn’t tell the vomit story, you aluded to it twice, fut didn’t tell it. Secondly, thanks for the pictures, it affirms that i will never again attend small pennsylvania festivals. Also, noticed Wisebird was on the bill, those guys are friends, did you catch or enjoy their set?

I got to the festival on sat around 5pm. My friends had already set up camp in the “wook lot”. There was one piece of grassy land left in the general area (mostly road/rocks). About 5 minutes before I was gonna setup my tent, some dude vomited all over the lonely grassy knowl. End result was me opting for the safety for my 2 door civic, which, worked out fairly well.
Thanks for calling me out on forgetting the story.
Also, didn’t catch wisebird to my knowledge.

If I can’t get a friend to go to a show with me, I head to shows by myself. Why would I miss a show, especially in FL, where the act won’t come back around for a year or two?
It is definitely fun to go to shows with your friends. However, when you go by yourself you can rome around the venue looking for the best sound and sights. Not to mention you get to meet all kinds of people that are into the same stuff you are. Never miss a show just because you have no one to go with because those always seem to be the best ones.
