hell yessssss. they must be playing saturday 9/23 since they're at pygmalion fest 9/22.

last year it was a $10 suggested donation and all beers were $3 including rare goose island stuff. also last year the headliner played for 1.5 hours so hopefully we get a full set.

My friend went last year and he said it's not bad. It does get crowded and sometimes there's a long line to get in but people leave throughout the day so that makes the lines move faster. He said the earlier you get there the easier it is to get in, which is obvious I guess. I'd say plan on getting there in the afternoon and hanging out for a couple hours before AC if you can. Also I don't think there's a detailed music schedule but it looks like it ends at 10pm on Saturday so I'm guessing AC will play around 8:30? Not sure tho

I went last year and would agree that it was definitely crowded inside the fest gates, but the line wasn't that long getting in. I feel like I got there around 7 or so.

Also beer there is super cheap. Like $3 for craft selections. Prepare to get shwifty

A rapper, never figured out who it was. He played for 5 min then a high pitch noise just pwnd everyone. This happened again 10 minutes later. The sound guy said his laptop was donezo and had nothing t do with them (AC didn’t have any sound issues and sounded actually v nice).

Sorry chad. There were jus too many of you at times
