given the size of the last one i don’t think this needs its own thread. Manchester orchestra headlined
Given that they're expanding to two days, they're definitely going bigger in one or more ways.
It's not like the bandwidth taken up by a single thread is going to have much impact upon server resources. The first few editions of Boston Calling had some headliners who were, at that time, playing headlining shows at HoB and the pavilion, right around the same level that Manchester Orchestra is at right now.
I've seen Lord Huron at my ushering job and they have an incredible performance energy imo, even if they tour around here very frequently. I could see them headlining bigger festivals someday if they continue on their current trajectory

Keeping an eye on this for sure. Smaller regional festivals have a lot to offer: usually easier to get in/out of, less competition to get good spots for sets, and good lower to mid-tier acts get longer sets than they would at a huge festival. 8-10 decent bands makes it worth the drive from New Jersey.

Leaving New Jersey makes it worth the drive from New Jersey.

Ha! Gotta defend the Garden State, home of at least THREE beach festivals in 2023!
if it was under 100 bucks i'd probably just grab tickets in this blind presale, because i'd say i'm very likely to go... but for some reason 120 just feels like a bit too much and now im going to wait for a lineup

feel the same way, Lord Huron is a good start but im gonna need more to pay 120

It's difficult to come up with an indie rock/pop festival lineup that doesn't have enough on the poster to get me to a Red Line accessible event, but Tennis was really the only act I had any interest in seeing last year and not a ton of interest in them, at that.
Of course, with two days this year, that just increases the odds that there will be more to like on the poster.
Just watch, they'll end up dropping their lineup before we know who's playing Boston Calling.
Boston Calling is rumored to drop on the 10th, so we'll see.
Isn't the rumor, though, that there's big news on the 10th? That could be the C3/Live Nation acquisition announcement, with the lineup dropping a bit later.
From a publicity standpoint, doing it this way would make more sense. Get a lot of press coverage with acquisition announcement on the 10th and follow that up 2-3 weeks later with the lineup drop, and another round of press coverage.
Plus, if they want to do a pre-lineup drop early bird onsale, that would give them a few weeks to sell early bird passes.
(Do C3 festivals normally do a pre-lineup drop onsale?)
Was hoping for SDRE at BC, but this is really good.
Wonder if MM will still be available with their drummer passing.
Who was the drummer when MM played Roadrunner a few weeks ago?
Good question - but Jeremiah Green, the drummer who passed away, was drumming with them at Boston Calling and was listed as their drummer until his death, so unless the percussionist took over (played a mean 2x4 at BC), it was him.
Edit - seeing Zach's post, looks like it was someone else.
