GOTV back in Bridgeport for 2008!
« Reply #15 on: January 22, 2008, 04:44:46 pm »
I just hope they aren\'t on Sunday again. After 3 days of back to back mind expansion and walking 5 miles back and forth along the beach I was too beat and dirty/sweaty to even stand up for Breakfast @ Vibes last year.

IMO Breakfast should have played before P-Funk / DBB and dropped their own brand of funk.

So apparently tickets go on sale today (3/11) I think I\'ll be heading to this. Didn\'t know that Zappa plays Zappa was on the bill, I\'m really looking forward to that.  I\'ve heard nothing but good things.

and of course it\'s always fun to see DBB. :)

:( I was really hoping the Breakfast would be back again this year.  :chin: maybe they\'ll play on the main stage instead of the solar stage?! Either way, I\'m going whether they play or not.  This festival is way too close to home to miss!  :D

Well there is really only 3 bands I would even bother to catch playing on the solar stage as it stands right now.

knowing how long a walk it was last year I don\'t think I will be at the solar stage at all this year

Nate Wilson Band (Nate is awesome. But will catch AOD on the main stage)
Andrew Hoover (singer song writer acoustic guitar CT Native. He is Very very good)
Caravan Of Thieves *

* = Maybe. Fuzz & carries new project. I liked this project much much more than Rolla. However not sure it will get me to walk from the main area.

Bummed about no Breakfast. Always nice to see everyone at this fest.

Friday seems like my favorite day so far. Saturday is eh, and Sunday folks will be clearing out like mad. Sam Bush is always awesome tho

The lineup is decent. and I will be there regardless.

Does anyone know if there is still a chance of The Breakfast being added? It seems to me that the announcement came really late last year, so I was thinking that the same might happen this year. Maybe we could make a last ditch email attempt to get them added :shrug:

Vibes lineup doesnt seem quite as excellent as last year. Notable omission being The Breakfast and Ratdog.

But it was a great festival last year and I will definitely be there this year. Breakfast is at Up North Fest with Ratdog the next weekend so I\'ll be up there too.

UM has been added.

The Bridge is on the Solar stage, seen them once or twice with the guys, I remember liking them.

Not so excited for this one as I was a couple months ago. Kind of thinking about saving the money and energy and expelling it the next weekend in Maine. :chin:

Even if the bands don\'t jump out at you like they might have last year... Vibes on the beach is still guaranteed to be an incredible time.

I\'m definitely missing the Ratdog + Breakfast ticket at Vibes this year, but screw it, its just an excuse to go to Up North the next weekend :D
