Earthtones/Dickson Street Music Fest

[kgbnfx]

April 25-26 Fayetteville, AR


Wow, It was just leaked to me that this festival will occur again. I was told in December it wouldn't happen, but it is! This year the festival will team up with George's Majestic and the Dixon Street Music Fest. I have some names of the bands that are confirmed, but I will have to tease you for now since it hasn't went official yet. Friday night is going to be really mellow with some classic rock bands. There will be after parties for both nights (smoking after hour sets) Saturday night is going to be one hell of a night! If you know who some of my favorite jambands and DJ's are than you might have a good guess at who will be playing.

[Pauly's Cheese]

******* again? ohpleaseohpleaseohpleaseohpleaseohpleaseohpleaseoh pleaseohplease

[kgbnfx]

Can't squeeze the juice outta me! I'm as dry as Albuquerque in June!

[movn2w8]

ok...someone's going to have to tell me what kind of bands played this before. I just got approved work from home.....so basically that means I can probably just up and leave whenever right?!?!??!

:lol: :lol:


ok....i just tried to look this up. If Speakeasy is there, I'd be interested in checking this out.

[arwriterrider]

Drew Emmit, Speakeasy, Blue Tech...good mix of styles and lotsa late night DJ sets.

[kgbnfx]

Jah Roots, Joesph Israel

[kgbnfx]

Camping may not happen seeing how this is a city fest. I was told the city may open up the fairgrounds for camping?

[kgbnfx]

The rumored bands on Saturday night blows last year's line-up away. I think there is only one confirmed artist mentioned above confirmed. I was told they expect about 5,000 people for the weekend and tickets are in the range of 35 to 50 for both nights.

[movn2w8]

so speakeasy is coming, right?

:lol:


So is this going to be in fayetteville or in eureka springs?

[arwriterrider]

Very cool! It sounds like they have really upped this fest from last year. When can we expect an announcement?

[kgbnfx]

Oh yeah! Let me clarify: I am in no way or form involved in this festival other than I'm street teaming here in Chainsaw City for a free ticket. I am stoked however for a pre-union two in Fayettenam? I'm not sure how hard the city is going to push this? I'll have some more information about street teaming for the fest next week if your interested.

Send me a PM if you may be interested and from these cities.

Hard to tell at this point? If your at the Pre-Union you?ll know a few of the names by the end of the night..

This is mid level city fest. It isn?t going to try to compete with larger festivals like Waka, Scamp, or 10K. Even though there will be several Waka worthy type bands. Some that played Waka in prior years.

[Pauly's Cheese]

So they're planning on having it at the fairgrounds? No camping? If that's the case, I'd definitely be down with setting up tent city in my backyard. The fairgrounds are about 5 minutes away 8)

I wonder what the no camping thing would do to the sets that last til sunrise.

[kgbnfx]

Well Earthtones decided not to try and compete with the cities Dixon Street Music Fest and George's and have instead joined them. I'm sure something will work out, but it is just a city music fest.

[kgbnfx]

This will be an indoor/outdoor event. Georges will have shows indoor while there will be a large stage in Georges Parking lot. There will also be a DJ tent.

[movn2w8]

This sounds like loads of fun. We'll see how the drive down goes in a week.....and if it's not that bad, and my calendar still looks as good as it does now....AND I HAVE MONEY...I'm going.

[Pauly's Cheese]

My oh my........buy your tickets early, folks!

:D :shock: :D :P

You have any info yet on that after-party? I wonder if it's going to be in George's or somewhere else. If it's in George's, the music will have to be finished by 1:45.

[kgbnfx]

Not sure yet?

Do we know when and where to buy tix - can you get single day tix? do they need street teamers...I really want to be there for Franti, Little Feat and bllind Melon.

[rabbitsounds]

count me in on this...

i really want to check out Blue-Tech

[kgbnfx]

We plan on just attending Saturday night.

[kgbnfx]

I keep hoping to hear more about this event. George's has NMAS in March and then after that they don't have anything posted?

[Pauly's Cheese]

I know....I checked on there yesterday and still didn't see anything.

However, I did notice a little blurb about it on a flyer last weekend. No bands listed on it, though. It was just a list of dates for upcoming shows and that was at the bottom of the list.

Hopefully we'll get a chance to try the Chompdown de Cheese, Version 2.2 expansion pack!

mmmmm chompdown de cheese....mmmm...

too bad the time that Earthtone is during will be the time that Ashley (Matt's wife) will be expecting their bundle of joy....or i would say let's get them to play....i am sure that after the preformance that they gave at George's people will be talking about them for some time...

have you guys looked at their myspace page...and seen the response they received from the show???

pretty good stuff there

[kgbnfx]

Pauly are you deadset on having it at your house? I know Sterling has some camping space right at his property on the lake. What do you guys think about camping at the lake for the evening and having the chomp the next morning? I know it depends on the weather.

[rabbitsounds]

one day right...just sat/sun thing again....that is all a rabbit might be able to do (and that is cutting it close on the old vacation time...LOL)...but if for some reason i might not make earthtone...be it known...it was eaten by SUMMERCHOMP!!!

i still have my reservation in pauly's yard...though...that kitchen was awesome...that might just havetabe the home chomp when it stays in Fayattenam...opps...ville...y'all...(snicker)...hi jacking in progress...

GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLL LLLLLLLLLLAAAAAAAAAAACCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIITTTTTTTTTTTTT....hijack complete.....or is it.

I'm going to call Sterling today and find out about Blind Melon and Bluetech?!? Shooter Jennings is a good add though. I had a hoot at his show, plus I threw up on myself........ahhh memories!

[kgbnfx]

Ok here is the dealio. Shooter, 38, and Charlie Daniels on Friday. Franti, Sonic Youth, and Lil' Feat on Saturday nite. The fest will be held in the parking lot next to Georges both nights and will be over at 11:00 pm. Right after the street fest on saturday night Blind Melon and Bluetech will be playing inside Georges. Don't fret Paul, you'll get your Bluetech! :D

[kgbnfx]

Plus, I will have info to those that are interested in Street Teaming for this event next week. Just send me a PM with your snail mail addy and your location and I will see if Earthtones needs your help promoting where you live.

On the website in small print it is included :lol:

[kgbnfx]

Chomp de Cheese 2??? I talked to Sterling and they plan on hitting the after party at your house. I think the wife and I are going to stay whim and his wife at the lake then get up and come back to your house for the Chomp if your going to throw one. Rabbit your going, no questions asked, so don't even go there. Can't have a chomp w/out the Brer! I know Rob is down, this time bring your laptop. I just got my 500 gb external today and I backed everything up, so hooking you up with tunes will be even easier. I still have your DVD's. Where did we stop? Oh yeah Matt and Tom I expect to see you guys there too!

[Pauly's Cheese]

I will be starting a \"Chompdown de Cheese.....take dos\" thread shortly :P

[ItsOnlyMatt]

I'll have to see. In the spring, I get busy with all kinds of outdoor projects and there's always that window after winter to get all this stuff done before it gets hot outside and the summer fest season starts.

In other words, I ain't sure, yet.

[kgbnfx]

http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t28/kgbnfx/DSMFhomepage.jpg

[arwriterrider]

Yeah, I'm definately in! Sonic Youth and Bluetech are a must see IMO and Little Feat's always fun. And yes the laptop will be present Nipper, thanks again for the HUGE catalog. C'mon Matt, I've got home repairs to...just need a little ragin' energy to put them into perspective! PreUnion II~Chompdown at the Casa de BlueCheese?!

[travelphan]

[quote:f8d11c6d2d=\"kgbnfx\"]http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t28/kgbnfx/DSMFhomepage.jpg[/quote:f8d11c6d2d]

Looks like Tif and I will be there Saturday...any suggestions on hotels. I usually drive home after a Fayettville show, but I think we will stay the night.

[kgbnfx]

If the weather is nice I'd just pitch a tent in Pauly's backyard if I were you!

[movn2w8]

Ok....here's the deal. So far I know that I don't have anything scheduled, Although......I do need to put this past my husband and my sister....if we could make this a

take DOS!

then it would be awesome. I could come down NOT SICK! and not spread any of the plague that Nipper sent down to ya'll during the chomp de cheese......

I would totally love to do this if Bluetech is there, and little feat...this is going to be awesome. I don't have squat for cash though right now. If Dana could carry me...then this would be the best show on earth. Plus, we could also have a preunion take dos!

[travelphan]

[quote:ceef3ffea2=\"kgbnfx\"]If the weather is nice I'd just pitch a tent in Pauly's backyard if I were you![/quote:ceef3ffea2]

That may be a possibility but the wife will probably want a hotel room...plus we may have to drive home if we do not have dog sitters.

[ItsOnlyMatt]

You could keep your pets at Pauly's and have that piece of mind.


I'm gonna a study hard on this one.... If Team D could stop and pick me up on the way down. That would be greatttt..

[kgbnfx]

I wish we could get a taper at this show! I want the Bluetech set at George's!

[kgbnfx]

Bad news on the Street team front. I guess these guys are running behind schedule and are going to try to internet base there advertising rather than deploy the pounders. Bummer sorry all!

I will have some more info on a Solstice Festival in Arkansas soon. It is in its infancy so I will just hush for now! Once again sorry anyone that was thinking of street teaming for the event at Georges in April.

[kgbnfx]

Vince Herman and American Taxi were added to the bill. I think Vince is playing both nights? I know he will be inside at George's on Friday night.

[travelphan]

I should have this all aranged by the end of the week...it looks like we are going to be there Saturday!

We have a house sitter that we use every time we go out of town..if they can't do it they will go to my moms. We are going to get a hotel...we are using this little fest for a good reason to just get away. I work in the travel industry so I will probably book the Marriott because I think I can get a discount :D

[kgbnfx]

Only a month to go! I'm getting stoked for Bluetech and Sonic Youth! So who all is street teaming at Dickson St. for Wakarusa? Vax? Paul? DGold? Travelphan? Pedro13? Are there more people?

http://www.myspace.com/earthtonesfestival

Street Team members for the fest will recieve FREE Fat Tire beer, VIP access, and a comped weekend ticket for the festival.

Send me a PM if your interested in having a somewhat cheap weekend in Fayetteville next month and jamming out with some good tunes. It's as simple as distributing you materials and taking some pic's and then getting to Fayetteville.

Paul are you throwing the after hours parties?

[pedro13]

I'm there! I got the T, so now all I need is the D and the R! Nipper you know what I'm talkin bout, got room for one more? Hell I'll take trunk space if you got it!

[kgbnfx]

I'll talk to the wife and see what she thinks about having a rider? So how did you get a ticket? Are you working during the festival with Beatnik Gen?

[pedro13]

Looks like it! I'm on the S crew! YOU KNOW! 8)

[kgbnfx]

Security? Sound? Street Team? SCREW? You may want to drive yourself as the wife reinforced the no rider rule to me again today. I'm so whipped! :oops: Plus, that gives you the opportunity to drive to your certain female friend in Fayettenam. Is that where you plan on staying the weekend?

[pedro13]

No riders, Harsh! It's cool, your right, I may have another agenda and don't know how long I'll be staying or how soon I will get there :wink:

[Pauly's Cheese]

Nipper, I'm sure I'll be having people over.....but it's kinda up in the air. We need to find out if Bluetech might be playing a super ultra late night show somewhere. I don't know if he would be interested, but he could set up in my living room and bring the sun up if he wanted :idea:

[kgbnfx]

I think Bluetech is staying at Sterlings that evening with us. I'm not sure if Sterling wants to have an after hours party? I'll run it by him, he had said something about stopping by your place for an after hours. I'm sure Bluetech will be in accompany.

[Pauly's Cheese]

titties :D

[pedro13]

I'm pretty sure I'll be staying on Dickson Street with my homegirl, but if all else fails I'll bring my tent just incase someone has some yard space available?

[rollnaway]

Anybody want a shirt from last year? I've got a box of em. Cheap

[kgbnfx]

We're you the guys selling the shirts by the main stage and Mama Wanda's first aid tent?

[rollnaway]

yeah, that's us. We'll be at waka this year. Should be fun, especially if we can get some employees lined out so we don't have to sit in the booth the whole time. Couldn't beat the view at earthtones. Wonderful venue.

[kgbnfx]

Hey if you bring those shirts too Waka. I'll buy a couple cause we didn't get one last year. Those were the greenish tie dyed ones right?

[rollnaway]

no problem

[travelphan]

We have our hotel booked (Marriott Courtyard) and I believe house sitters for the dogs and a new car to drive (this will be it's 1st road trip) so it looks like my wife Tif and I will be there on Saturday morning.

[kgbnfx]

Give me a call when you get settled in.

[kgbnfx]

Pedro 13, I have your Eathtones promo materials. If your going to the Big Smith/Speakeasy show you can pick them up tomorrow night?

[pedro13]

I'm coming up tonight homie! Also I'm thinkin bout hitting up the Snorty horse to see Piks band play :) See you soon!

[kgbnfx]

Missed ya tonight! The show was great! I moved Home Grown, Waka, and Dicks tonight! Ridin' dirty! Left the show a tad early and skipped the after hours to come home to the woman. Seepeoples on Wednesday! See you soon bro!

[pedro13]

For sure man!

[kgbnfx]

I'm getting really stoked as this festie kicks off the festival season for us! Less than two weeks and we are in full festie mode! Can't wait to hang w/all of you (Rob, Pedro, Travelphan, Team B, and Pauly!) Paul, I spoke w/Sterling and your good to go, just keep snapping pics and send them to Janie after the weekend.

SWEEEEEET! Give me a buzz and give me the ins and outs whenever you get a minute.

[kgbnfx]

Gates open at 5:00 pm Friday. We plan on being in Fayettenam about 3:00 pm to catch an early dinner downtown. Paul will you still be working? Where is some place half way decent to dine near George's. I don't want Jimmy Johns nor do I want a $60 bill, any suggestions? Maybe a decent Pub & Grub?

[arwriterrider]

Hey Nip, you might want to try The Flying Burrito Co. It's decent and right behind the lot next to Georges.

[kgbnfx]

Elevated Mexican food? Do they serve booze?

[travelphan]

I talked to Sterling the other day and it seems like it turned out that I was the only one that took care of the promo materials for him in Tulsa. I am ready for some Franti and Little Feat!

There is still a brewery on Dickson....right next to where the festival is going to be. I haven't been there since I've moved back.......it changed owners.....but I'll try and get in there soon and offer either a recommendation or a condemnation. There's also a place called \"Brewski's\" real close. They've got something like 140 beers on tap :shock:

If that doesn't fit your fancy, there's a place called \"Tables and Ale\" a couple blocks away. They have $1 Bud Light drafts and $2 Mothership pints every day. Needless to say, I'm quite the regular :wink:

Zac, do you have my number? If not, shoot me a PM. I'm gonna try and get off work a little early on Friday.

No food.....that's why you can still smoke in there 8)

It's a very small place with 4 pool tables and a nice, big patio. Very, very good family around that joint. Tanya from Mountain of Venus tends bar there on Wednesdays. I usually help gather empty glasses and she hooks me up :wink:

[kgbnfx]

Oh, I need grub! Something close to George's and decent. Rob said check out The Flying Burrito. What are some other options within walking distance?

[Pauly's Cheese]

The flying burrito is pretty good. There's a Jimmy John's right across the street from Hor-hay's and about 20 eateries within walking distance. Depends on what your hungry for.

Imagine Mass. St., but with hills.

[kgbnfx]

We'll figure it out! If you want you can join us? I plan on giving you a call when we hit the city.

There is still a brewery on Dickson....right next to where the festival is going to be. I haven't been there since I've moved back.......it changed owners.....but I'll try and get in there soon and offer either a recommendation or a condemnation. There's also a place called \"Brewski's\" real close. They've got something like 140 beers on tap :shock:

If that doesn't fit your fancy, there's a place called \"Tables and Ale\" a couple blocks away. They have $1 Bud Light drafts and $2 Mothership pints every day. Needless to say, I'm quite the regular :wink:

Zac, do you have my number? If not, shoot me a PM. I'm gonna try and get off work a little early on Friday.[/quote:998396e804]

140 beers :lol: :lol: sound good. I know we will be probably looking for food also. We should do a meet up on Saturday before the festivities.

[shellebelle]

[quote:1c140eb709=\"kgbnfx\"]Oh, I need grub! Something close to George's and decent. Rob said check out The Flying Burrito. What are some other options within walking distance?[/quote:1c140eb709]

YES!!! The Flying Burrito!!!!!!! incredible~I'll will for sure be hitting this place up while in Fayettville :D mmmmm.......

[Pauly's Cheese]

It's a lot like Chipotle if you've ever eaten there. Very tasty :P

[BMWrangle]

hey all, gotta throw my 2 cents in... the Hoghaus (brewpub) has some good brews, the food's OK but not particularly noteworthy and you just can't beat Brewski's for beer selection. Try a Chimay blue or Maredsou Belgian Abbey Ale.

Jose's is up the street a about 4 blocks and has real good tex-mex, but their rocks (not frozen) margaritas are the standard that noone else has met yet. A couple gold rocks margs with dinner and you'll be primed for the evening. They also have about 25 different tequilas if you wanna get exotic, erotic, or just poor in a hurry. And they usually have some pretty cool tees for sale. Disclaimer - the service isn't always what it used to be but it's still worth the trip.

If you really want to go hardcore and drop a bill or two, Bordino's is excellent Italian / steaks / seafood but you'll need to make a reservation now if they're not already booked up.

Thanks for the heads up on the VIP tix - I'm doing it VIP Saturday night, just GA Friday night late. I hope to meet some of you over the weekend - Paul, I'll find you on the psychic hotline. 8)

It usually works out that way 8)

36 Club has really good food as well. The woman and I ate there last weekend and had a medium priced meal (I had the oven roasted pork tenderloin with garlic mashed potatoes and asparagus) and a few Stellas for around $65. Well worth it. We were stuffed.

Y'all just need to give me a call whenever you get to town. I'll be your official Fayetteville tour guide 8)

[kgbnfx]

Only 3 more days!!! I'm so stoked! Pedro do you want to caravan with us to Fayetteville? Bro thanks for helping the covert street team mission at Remingtons on Sat. We're pretty sly!

[shellebelle]

I know your husband...he used to play in a band with one of my oldest and closest friends. They were in Local Transit together. Pauly, kgbnfx and myself (with my wife) and I think others will be hanging out. PM me if you want the cell phone numbers. We are also heading in on Saturday. Is Tech Tonic playing before or after Blind Melon?

I'm blaming the weekend holiday!

[kgbnfx]

Primer bump!

[travelphan]

Woo Hoo!!

2 more days until we are in Fayetteville!!!

[kgbnfx]

We leave in 22 hours! Pedro don't be late!

[travelphan]

kgbnfx...I thought you guys were only going Saturday?

[kgbnfx]

No were going both nights. We decided this about a month ago. Sterling really wanted us to be there for the weekend to help out with the Skeleton Krew and Beatnik. I'll make sure everything is kosher for you and the wife once you get downtown. Should be no problems. :D

[kgbnfx]

Note to self: No puking on myself during the Shooter Jennings set! ....LOL!!!

I have no worries! I really can't wait for Little Feat and Franti. Not sure about Sonic Youth but we will be at Blind Melon

[BabeinToyland]

Hey! the hubby and I are going for sure...maybe some tag-a-longs, it's a friend of mine's B-day so he may be going. We've done Waka since '05 and had a friggin' blast...

Love to meet some Waka folks on Dickson if you all have a meet-up spot...

We'll definitely be hitting Brewski's and maybe Jose's b4 the show...

We don't have tix yet, kinda trying to decide between VIP and straight tix...any thoughts?

I know this is the first fest, but any thoughts on parking? I booked a hotel, so I was thinking of just taking a taxi from the hotel so we don't have to mess with any of that....

Oh yeah! I'm really stoked about Franti and Sonic Youth...I saw them years ago and they were killa!!

[kgbnfx]

VIP on Saturday looks nice. I'll send you a pm with my cell #. feel free to call anytime tomorrow or sat.

I think we're going to shoot for a meet up around 4:00pm on Saturday for dinner? Anyone else want to meetup at that time? Pick a spot guys!

Could not have said it better myself! Tif and I had a blast..although I sort of went at it like I was a kid. Banged up my knee scaling fences, getting hammered starting around 2pm. For some reason when I woke up Sunday morning my shoulder hurt to even lift my arm :?: I have no idea how I did that :roll:

Got to meet Vince Herman (again) and 2 guys from Blind Melon although by the time I met them my freakin' camera died :cry:

Highlights of the fest
1. Hangin' with kgbnfx and his wife, shellebelle and techtonic, teamb, pauly and his girlfriend, arwrightrider, pedro13 and many other good friends.
2. Blind Melon! I thought they were great and a little creepy on how much he does sound like Shannon.
3. Franti
4. Little Feat
really there are too many highlights...

lowlights
Hurting myself and hangover :shock:

It was great to meet and hang with you guys (and gals), can't wait for the real deal in June. I'm still just stoked that Fayetteville seems to be getting better and better at doin' it up right!
