twoshedsjackson Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Got my tickets in the mail today! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
twoshedsjackson Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 The schedule's up. Tweedy will have 65 minutes. I'm kinda bummed - I know it's a festival, but I was hoping for a bit longer than that. I'm sure Jeff will be doing some sort of collaboration with Mavis too though, so there's that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tinnitus photography Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 65 minutes is pretty healthy chunk for a non-headliner. welcome to festival rock. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cold as Gasoline Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 I kind of expect the short sets for festivals, but ugh, the conflicts are going to require some Sophie's Choices. Going to have to crunch some numbers and work out a plan before I go (Nickel Creek and the Milk Carton Kids, why must you taunt me by always conflicting?) BTW, installed the updated NFF app on my phone yesterday and it will be pretty handy. It's got a map of the various stages and lets you sort and star the artists you want to see.

tinnitus photography Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 that app is good, and will pop up little message and notes about things happening as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RaspberryJam Posted July 10, 2014 Author Share Posted July 10, 2014 I got it too. I will have to be 2 places at once for a few slots! I also got my tickets to the Deer Tick aftershow on Saturday today in the mail. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Magnetized Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Hey, should all of us going to Newport figure out some way to meet somewhere, sometime? I would love to do that, but I know how crazy it can get at a big festival with running from stage to stage. Plus, of course, we may be with friends and family who have other plans. But still, maybe someone has a suggestion? At the very least, maybe we can exchange real names and phone numbers so we can text at the festival. I'll start. I'm Diane and my phone number is 757-287-9871. If you guys want to do this but don't want to be so public, we could set up a PM group. I am getting very excited about this--I'll be driving up exactly 2 weeks from now!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tinnitus photography Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 I will be there sat and sun, moving from stage to stage all day.

Oil Can Boyd Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Apparently Deer Tick had a little trouble getting there: http://www.vanyaland.com/2014/07/24/deer-tick-kicked-us-airways-flight-en-route-newport-folk-festival/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tinnitus photography Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 if you decide on a time and a place to meet, hopefully i can swing it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Magnetized Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Has anyone scrutinized the schedule to see a dead spot? That would be the ideal time to suggest. I've got a shitty internet connection here. Hopefully back to normal tomorrow. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RaspberryJam Posted July 25, 2014 Author Share Posted July 25, 2014 Oh boy! I'm looking now, open spots that everyone agrees on in the schedule might be tough. But, after Deer Tick and before Jack White, there are a bunch of good bands, but all ones that I'd be happy playing in the background while I chat with VC friends.
