DBT Chicago – did Woody pay you to make that list? Solid lineup.

I like the idea of the fantasy fest…similar to the fantasy supergroup. Venue/lineup/time of year are a great start, would be curious to hear who the sponsors would be and libations served – cleary whiskey would be one of them. Woody – true or false your fantasy fest would be an all ages show so you could bring Teddy and ogle high school babes at the same time.

You and woody might be soul mates.

This TI fest is about as good as it gets for a real festival. If I could add in DBT and Blitzen Trapper, oh boy.

My fantasy fest as of today. It would be held at Chicago’s Millenium Park in early October. Here it is in order (45 minutes for openers, 1 1/2 hours for headliner):

Siderunners (1st band I saw live in Chicago when I moved)
Dodos (great other stripped-down starter)
Andrew Bird (another hometown boy)
Catfish Haven (more hometown love, this time bluesy)
Okkervil River (picking up the pace)
O’Death (knocking out some teeth)
Two Cow Garage (shooting whiskey through your gaping mouth)
Drive-by Truckers (just straight kicking ass to put me to bed).

Incidentally, I’m going to see the Dodos on Oct. 8 in Chicago for the first time. Can’t wait.
