Not for nothing but that is my dream festival lineup. My three favorite bands are the first three listed. The rest is just bonus... and fantastic bonus!

Has anybody been to Peach before, thinking VIP is the way to go.

plus so much more.

Anyone know if they end up releasing single day passes?  I'm in my cousins wedding on Aug 11th.  Thinking about disowning him.

Awsesome.

But I do wish MMJ had two sets and Mr Bob Weir was playing too.

and Marcus King Band, too!!!!  That is quite a lineup!

I am just hoping more Magpie Salute dates get announced. And MMJ Nashville rumors are true, or better yet they play in Louisville. This lineup is the best I've seen this Summer, I just don't know how likely it is that I will get there.

They had single day passes last year, I assume they will have them this year as well. I'm planning on going for Jacket, as long as I'm not dead from the Bakers Dozen

Yes they do, but not till later.
Sometimes you wonder if your walking in the wrong direction.

the initial rumor I heard was Friday, but Saturday makes more sense (similar to Lockn)

Saturday doesn't seem likely to me if Panic is headlining two nights. I would think they'd play back to back nights, with both being on the weekend. Either Fri/Sat or Sat/Sun but definitely not Thurs/Fri. That would leave either Friday or Sunday for MMJ to headline.

Maybe not but that's the way I'd be leaning. Unless of course they aren't headlining one of the nights but based on the announcement, it sure looks like they will be.

Got my camping passes, went standard reserved and am AMPED. Love this lineup.

Wouldn't shock me if it went WSP on Friday, MMJ on Saturday, WSP on Sunday. That's how it went with Phish at Lockn last year, anyway.

well, Phish is infamous for "never miss a Sunday show" but aside from that it makes sense to split the primary headliner (if they are performing 2x) to ensure you keep attendance up on the final day.
Don't you ever turn it off

MMJ should come out dressed up as characters from The Office : Jim as a long-haired Michael Scott of ceremonies, Tom as Dwight with glasses and beets on his amps, Patrick as Phyllis, Carl as Pam and Bo as Jim.

Its Scrantontime for the Jackets.
(MMJ): 8/2/12+8/1/13+10/07/15+12/29/17+12/30/17+12/31/17+8/21/2022+ 8/16/2024::::(JIM): 11/5/2018

You may be right but I would think a headlining band on Summer tour wouldn't want to waste a weekend night. Unless they're getting compensated enough to make it worth their while to not have a show on the off night. 

I would think most bands want to get in and out of town ASAP, and WSP playing back to back nights just makes more sense to me.

or, if Lockn is a template, they stick around for sweet collaborations and/or support super VIP side gigs

Yeah that's true but I don't really see Lockn as a template for this fest. You may be right and hopefully you are for everyone going but I just think Lockn was more the exception than the rule. JMHO.
