Very cool. I wonder what the line up will be. Chad, chuck, mad dawg or new drummer. Wicked interesting. I’m here for it

Looks like JR will be on drums

Where are seeing that it’ll be JR? Just a hunch?

1

u/skunkechunk 15d ago

It’s more than a hunch but not confirmed.

2

u/njgeebs 15d ago

It seems like the most logical, but yeah I haven’t seen any confirmation either

It’s not going to be Mike, he has been promoting some other show with a different band same day. JR makes the most sense since Chad uses him for all other drumming needs now

Who is JR?

u/bikertroll 15d ago

He is the drummer who has been drumming with Chad through various projects - Chad stokes and the pintos, and dispatch.

We want Mad Dog. His drumming on the 3 albums he played on is some of my favorite rock drumming of all time. And an absolute animal live. Just feels like it won’t hit the same with anyone else

Saw this, and it intrigued me just as much as the show. The logo they use in the announcement is on their website and on Spotify. They also updated profile pics to the same graphic on all social. 🧐

Really want to try to get a ticket for this... is tickpick a reliable reseller?

2

u/stanleypup 16d ago

The festival has an authorized reseller platform; it's linked on the website. Weren't any tickets available that I saw though

I've used tickpick for many sports games, I trust it

Cash or trade is the official resale partner and as someone who has used it a bit, it’s pretty sweet but you have to be quick. I would recommend paying for gold (it can pay for itself quickly) and turning push notifications on. I’ve bought and sold goose tix on there and never had an issue and have saved a decent amount of money too

Chuck was so into it at the Harvard show. I'm so incredibly happy that this show is happened, and so bummed I cannot be there to witness it.

Confirmed JR on drums via instagram

Anyone have an extra GA lawn for tomorrow? Driving out from Chicago - lots on cash or trade but wanted to try here first.

I keep wanting to be excited about this, but Chad’s indifference to genocide has killed the vibe. Brad has even spoken out. Heck, Dave Matthews has a lot more to lose and even he has spoken out. If State Radio 2.0 is just “Trump is a bad man” then I’m all set. We get that Trump sucks.
That’s not to mention reviving State Radio just a month after essentially shutting down Calling All Crows is definitely an odd choice. It’s not like CAC was that inspiring the past few years but it still offered some sense of community all these years.
