Also Homecoming tickets will be available for members early next week...and apparently there’ll be exclusive things you can do at the festival if you’re a member. So yeah I feel like I should go
The National

Here we go. Just got this email, looks like they are prepping vol 2

By the looks of the sound waves, the finger position, set up, and type of shirt they are wearing. I can astutely say that it's an album having to do with... The National

I wonder if whoever reached out to them a few days ago had anything to do with this or if it’s just a coincidence

I would have guessed that they just wanted the timing to coincide with the Homecoming announcements.

Probably anticipating that the Homecoming communications would prompt members to send them a bunch of replies asking about the vinyl.

Damn $99 is a steal in this economy

And with a payment plan option if you need it? I mean, for that price it almost doesn't even matter what the lineup turns out to be. I spent almost that much on tickets just to see The National by themselves this summer.

I expect Big Thief to be there... The National LOVE Big Thief

exactly. I think with fees it was almost that much. I might be hesitant because it's a festival but they are headliners so it'll be a full set.

They were at the last Homecoming. I am curious how many repeat artists they'll have.

I am now interested in the vip option. It’s not that much, and with the layaway plan it’s a great idea. I have no plans set for lodging or flight or anything but I’m pretty positive I’ll be picking up a vip ticket come Monday...

I'm actually thinking the Platinum is worth the upgrade...it looks like half of the rail is basically reserved for platinum on the main stage, plus all the extra perks and merch.

Having a dedicated entrance might be the thing that makes it worth it. The line was pretty rough on the first day last year.

Somehow we managed to miss the giant line on the first day by getting there super early. I know a few people that missed earlier acts they wanted to see because they got there not even a half hour after we did.
If they do do (hehe) repeats, Big Thief and Moses Sumney would be greatly appreciated since they all have new stuff out/coming out. I'm hoping for a boygenius reunion with maybe a solo set from either Dacus/Baker/Bridgers

Do they have bands playing on each stage at the same time or is it set up so there's no overlap?

@Djxfactor511 may be able to correct me if I'm wrong, but I think I remember there was at least some overlap in the first year, at least until the bigger acts at night. No guarantee what that will mean for this year, though.

If you stayed in the park and didn't wander to the Underground Railroad Museum it was staggered.

Wow, okay, so I had completely forgotten how that schedule was put together. Also, LOL at even putting the art museum on the schedule.
Edit: Wait, now that I think about it I'm pretty sure we only attended on Saturday. How the hell did I forget so much about this?
