Yaz Rock Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Since the last couple of SS's have featured a theme (covers/acoustic shows), what if any do you all think this year's theme will be? Does the "We're bringing our friends" tag line hint at a full-album performance of Being There, now that they've broken the full-album seal (Star Wars)? :guitar Quote Link to post Share on other sites

onefastmove Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 I'll be making the trip for the third straight festival. Can't wait. I'll be wearing a Charles Oakley jersey for most of the event. Say hi! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dasradiohead Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Anyone in the northeast willing to grab some fresh hops over the next couple of weeks? Interested in Heady/Focal, Treehouse, Trillium, and Sip of Sunshine. Can bring fresh hops from Wisconsin/Illinois including but not limited to Pipeworks, Toppling Goliath, Half Acre and have seasonal/R&D from New Glarus and brewer's reserve from Central Waters. Am also willing to pay cash if you're only interested in a couple beers but can pick up a bunch. Thanks for reading! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Magnetized Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 A while back I posted in here about the option to buy t-shirts like the ones Jeff Tweedy has been wearing lately; they say "We're all in this together. except Trump. he's a dick." There are at least three groups of people (with lots of overlap) with members who are going to Solid Sound this year and we're trying to get a consensus on which day of the festival would be best to all wear our shirts for maximum impact. So the poll below has been created and shared to Via Chicago, the Facebook group Solid Sound Fest 2017, and the Facebook group A Shot in the Arm: the Wilco Fan group. If you plan to wear one of the shirts, please take the poll below to register your preferences. A follow-up poll will be posted after the day has been decided, to propose a time and place during the day to gather for a group photo wearing our shirts. https://www.facebook.com/groups/390889574423674/permalink/758769310969030/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe when we get the group picture taken we'll send it to you and you can photoshop yourself in so you can "virtually" be there! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bosco Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 I'm starting to worry because I don't seem to be able to locate my tickets, now I can't remember if they ever arrived, hell I'm starting to wonder if I bought them, even though I remember buying them the day they went on sale even though I was on the fence about going. Could someone remind me when they went on sale so I can search my records. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bosco Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Whew! I was getting all stressed out, worrying for you! Now I just need 5 more for my kids! I can't believe even Solid Sound has gone to the print at home tickets, I guess ticket stub collections will soon be a thing of the past. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
