    Default Interview Stage?

    Are any of the stages at Waka just interviews or short set stages, similar to the solar stages at Roo if you're familiar. Just trying to make some tough decisions and don't want plan on seeing a set if it's just an interview.
    Thanks!!! ONE WEEK TO WAKA!!!!

    Love the Roo Solar Stage. The Waka Backwoods stage is no bigger, but it is used for full sets. Some of the bands playing two sets will play Backwoods for a more intimate experience.

    All the sets at Waka are "music only" sets. If they are interviewing an artist/artists, they do it backstage/campsite, etc.

    Your decisions on what sets to see, just got harder. Welcome to the club.

    I was present at waka last year and all scheduled shows were full performances. No interviews, even the artists that play 2 shows will have 2 performance sets.

    Thanks for responding, guys! You're right...doesn't make life any easier Maybe I should stay off Spotify for a while. I love this whole lineup!!
    I really like the solar stage at Roo, too. But I get to see a small intimate show with interviews every Friday courtesy of my awesome public radio station They had an in-studio performance and interview today with the Infamous Stringdusters. Now I have to find a spot to catch a full show either at Waka or Roo!

    One of the best features of Wak is that all sets are at least an hour. (OK not every last one, but almost all)

    While that is shorter than most live shows, some festys have alot of 30 and 45 minute shows--which would suck.
