Got tickets for Atlanta as soon as I heard. DeLuna Fest is only selling admission for all three days at $160. Hopefully this ends up hurting sales enough to change that. Atlanta to Pensacola Beach is an easy drive.
Not sure why they wouldn't announce all of the Festivals they're doing at once. Yesterday they announced that they'll be co-headlining Made In America (another festival) with Jay-Z in Philadelphia. I fully expect to hear that they'll be playing somewhere that isn't a 12 hour (or 18 for Pensacola Beach) drive from Chicago.

God damn!! That is one hell of a lineup. Slapstick is going to get back together for a show? Awesome.

That's my purse! I don't know you!

At the risk of being called burrito I just found out Ingrid Michaelson will be playing Turner Hall
in Milwaukee on October 5th and think I will be getting tickets. Very cool venue, very small for
a ballroom style setting. It is a Friday night which is awesome, weeknight shows in Chicago and
Milwaukee usually keep me away due to work.

Edit - 8/1 purchased 2 tickets....

Saw Band of Horses and My Morning Jacket at Jay Pritzker Pavilion in Millennium Park. Outstanding.

I have no idea about most of them either, just going to see Pearl Jam- that's what sold me the ticket. Whoever else I happen to see along the way just comes with the package. I wouldn't care in the least if most or all of the other bands cancelled.

I wanted to see Band of Horses and MMJ in Milwaukee but was in Vegas for work. As for your upcoming shows I'd
check out The Avett Bros. in Atlanta and City and Colour in FL. Sounds like you have a lot of choices though. Enjoy.

Pumpkins in Chicago. Likely the weekend of Oct. 20th, from what I can piece together. Doesn't look like it will be at the UC since Hawks and Bulls have preseason games. Probably Allstate.

If VIP tix are available, I think I might plunk down the $500.

Just plunked down the cash for two tickets to the Smashing Pumpkins at Allstate Arena.

Oceania Premier VIP Experience Package
One Premium Seat or GA Floor Ticket
Three Song Backstage Performance (not songs from set that night)
Mini Press Conference (Q&A after Performance)
On site VIP Concierge
One Exclusive Autographed Tour Poster

Aside from a small show at Double Door next Sunday, this will probably do it for me for tickets this year.
