Post by: iAmBaronVonTito on June 11, 2008, 09:24:50 PM: im excited to see:

Sic Alps
Touch-Me-Nots
Cheap Time
Psychedelic Horseshit
Ryan Wong
Barbaras (of course)
Mouserocket

and any chance i get to see Alicja Trout live is worth all the money it takes to come home for a bit, taking a break from this god awful place in the desert.

p.s. im crossing my fingers Ross Johnson (and Msr. Jeff Evans) shows up to throw down on the skins and be absurdly obnoxious.

Post by: herbie on July 23, 2008, 12:37:36 PM: sic alps, oh sees, dan melchior, cheap time, vivian girls, cola freaks, intelligence, tyvek, eat skull, jay reatard...

I'M THERE!
Title: Re: GONERFEST V BANDS ANNOUNCED!!!!
Post by: A.M. Thomas on July 24, 2008, 02:02:10 AM: I most likely will be there. Really looking forward to Eat Skull, The Barbaras, TVK, Box Elders, etc. etc.

The ping-pong tournament is a big draw for me. I play almost every day, but I've never entered a tournament or anything. I really have no idea how good I am, but I love playing.

Will I be okay waiting to buy tickets in early September? I assume this thing won't sell out way in advance [?].

I'm probably coming too and will get the limited "golden ticket" for $50 that apparently gets you access most places.
Title: Re: GONERFEST V BANDS ANNOUNCED!!!!
Post by: yesno on July 24, 2008, 10:45:27 AM: I am sort of seriously considering going, too. I could drive in one marathon session on thursday, rock on friday and saturday, repeat marathon drive on sunday. Hmmmmmmmm.
Title: Re: GONERFEST V BANDS ANNOUNCED!!!!
Post by: iAmBaronVonTito on July 24, 2008, 11:06:51 AM: i havent seen it sell out yet, but for only being its fifth installment, its gotten bigger and bigger every year. im planning on getting the golden pass, but last year i paid at the door every nite and had no trouble getting in.

also, if you havent checked out the hotels, the artisan (located on union about 2-3 walking blocks from the hi-tone) has a GONERFEST SPECIAL of $50 a nite, if you tell them.
Title: Re: GONERFEST V BANDS ANNOUNCED!!!!
Post by: iAmBaronVonTito on July 24, 2008, 11:07:55 AM: p.s. i dont know whos flying or driving into memphis, but if you fly in and dont have a car/feel like driving, ill be more than happy to taxi people.
Title: Re: GONERFEST V BANDS ANNOUNCED!!!!
Post by: courtney on July 25, 2008, 11:22:10 AM: Make sure to say "Hi" to the drummer from Box Elders, Dave Goldberg for me. He's a super-swell guy!

Actually. Shit. Maybe I should just go to Gonerfest, huh?

Scheming .....
Title: Re: GONERFEST V BANDS ANNOUNCED!!!!
Post by: iAmBaronVonTito on July 25, 2008, 11:28:45 AM: that would be awesome, courtney.

in fact, if there was a FOT meetup at GONERFEST, i would feel better about missing out on a really good time at the Pre-(and Post!)Ted Leo Soda Meetup.
Title: Re: GONERFEST V BANDS ANNOUNCED!!!!
Post by: courtney on July 25, 2008, 01:14:44 PM: I will try.

Trying to sell a house right now though and any travel plans unfortunately depend on when/if it sells.

That really stinks.

Post by: Jonathan Steven on September 12, 2008, 03:03:07 PM: DANG this looks good. Unfortunately I can't make it. I will see a poor mans version of it next week in some philadelphia crusty squat space which will feature eat skull and psychedelic horseshit. The poor man's version but its mine.

Title: Re: GONERFEST V BANDS ANNOUNCED!!!!
Post by: buffcoat on June 03, 2009, 02:26:31 PM: I don't really care about live music, I hate being outside in the heat watching live music, and I don't care about any of these bands.

I've given it careful consideration, and I'm going to have to pass. Have fun...

... if you can. I don't think so, but you never know.
Title: Re: GONERFEST V BANDS ANNOUNCED!!!!
Post by: Dan B on June 03, 2009, 04:45:09 PM: The lineup for GonerFest VI looks great. The Clean! Nobunny! But it's during classes and will be to difficult for me to get to from New Jersey. Oh well.

Someone come buy a house in Lincoln, NE. It's a great house. I don't get it.

So ... iffy on Gonerfest again this year.

Compulsive Gamblers?! Cheater Slicks?!
Title: Re: GONERFEST V BANDS ANNOUNCED!!!!
Post by: Matt on June 03, 2009, 07:14:43 PM: I am so all over this it isn't funny. The Clean! Cheater Slicks! River City Tanlines!

iAmBaronVonVito - you're a Memphian, right? Do you know anyone who can hook me up with an Oblivians/Gories ticket? I'm shut out!

I think the clean might be touring through a couple places. I know they have put a hold on a couple days in nashville at the basement

Hey buffcoat, if it changes your mind, I understand it doesn't get all that hot in hell Memphis.

Post by: iAmBaronVonTito on June 29, 2009, 10:41:28 AM: not really Gonerfest-related but definitely Midtown music history related, there is an Antenna reunion show in August. i am too young and didnt live in Memphis during the Antenna years but my other half told me of many a show that occured at the Antenna and ive seen the youtube videos since then.

i was very jealous of the 10 years senior he had on me but glad for the stories that came from it. should be a good time, people. if you live in or around Memphis get thee to Nocturnal (the "new" Antenna) where you will see the old Antenna sign displayed behind the stage.

it should be a good show:

Post by: Matt on September 24, 2009, 10:25:11 PM: This starts tonight. I wish I could be there! I'll only be able to go on Saturday, if I go at all. I still haven't decided. I don't have any Memphis friends and I'd just feel awkward around all the cool people.

But I am SO hitting up that Reigning Sound/Spider Bags show in November.
