I’m gonna be stuck in freaking Idaho that weekend.

LAME.

WOW, this is gonna be quite a weekend!

oh man this is gonna be amazing!

they will post the exact times which bands are playing.

Any idea if the Shins might be making an appearance? That would be the cherry on top of this rock sundae.

i was charged for tickets a few weeks ago and i have not heard anything. i received the t-shirt i ordered at that time, but no tickets. what gives, buddy?

I ordered 2 2 day passes, the Sun Giant ep, a sub pop onesie for my kid, but I haven’t received any of it yet.

please at least post something explaining how and when we will get the tickets.much obliged…talk to ye.

is at the fridge drinking Mudhoney’s beer as always

Hi Ticket Buyers,
Firstly, allow me to apologize for the delay and/or confusion in your ticket purchases; we indeed should have explained when you should expect your tickets. Please accept our infinite apologies regarding this manner. We will be mailing the remainder of the tickets out this week.

Thanks folks,
sams@subpop.com

Just wondering if we could get a hint as when to expect the final additions to the line-up.

p.s. Getting very excited!

I’m trying to determine if children are going to need tickets to the festival. The Marymoor FAQ says it “depends on the show”. Does anyone have info. about this?

Please make this happen…

The Marymoor FAQ is a little confusing as to whether kids need tickets. In one section it says:

“Do children have to have tickets?

That depends on the show. Yes, tickets are required for children three years and older attending a regular concert performance.”

And then, elsewhere (under the “Purchasing Tickets” header), it says:

“ALL patrons three years or older must be ticketed for our shows outside of the family priced series.”

Since SP20 is not a “family priced series,” I take this to mean that everyone attending who is three or older will need a ticket, regardless of the “that depends on the show” bit. And that means that three is the cut-off. So, kids would have to be younger than three (aka 2 or 1 or even less than that) to get in for free. But, I’ll double-check on that this week and post here with something as close to definitive as I’m able to muster.

Until further notice, assume that anyone who is 3 or older and who wants to get in (or who you want to get in) to SP20 will need a ticket.

I’d give $100 to Sub Pop’s favorite charity if you could get the Boy’s from Cincinnati to reunite for the fest!!

couldn’t find the times anywhere…

Hi Subpop, wouldn’t this be a perfect occasion to reunite Sunny Day Real Estate and let them play? Other bands that would be good to see are e.g.:
Afghan Whigs
Soundgarden
Sleater Kinney
Love Battery

Would be huge if you can motivate one or the other to play at least a one-off thing at the SP20. Great stuff going on there!

6 finger satellite? sebadoh? wolf eyes? j&mc? dwarves?

Just ordered my tickets, and I’m also coming from Toronto. Ahahah. Woohoo!

Put Rein Sanction on the bill and I’ll fly out from Philadelphia.

Are they? When

The Shins are not performing at SP20.

No Shins ) :? Are there still plans to add more bands to the lineup?

We wish The Shins were playing, too! But, unfortunately, they’re not. There are still a couple of bands that have yet to be announced.

The line-up is already crazy good.

Are there going to be multiple stages or is it a one band after another situation?

Good to see you guys out again. Tear the place down boys. Sorry the tuch and I wont be there to sing backups.

Hey Bob, tell us that story bout apple head the cat again. oh, and you were right my bro did look like that roadie for Mettalica.

Have fun ya’ll
Junior

Dear Chris, Kim, Hiro and Matt,

If any of you have been checking this site, please reunite for this show. Even if you’d just play ‘Screaming Life’ in it’s entirety, with perhaps a few of the other early tunes (i.e. “Sub Pop Rock City,” “Heretic,” “All Your Lies”), I’m sure people would be ecstatic. Plus, that early stuff’s all in standard tuning, right? That means there would be no need for re-learning all of the additional tunings and lugging along extra guitars. I’m sure the older crowd wouldn’t mind having it’s remaining hair blown off it’s heads by the volcanic guitar riffs of Kim and the high-pitched wails of Chris!

Thanks!

I’m sure if you ask really nicely, you can get Steve Albini to reunite RAPEMAN for your little festival. Hell, he reunited BIG BLACK for 4 songs at the TOUCH AND GO RECORDS 25th Anniversary celebration. Now make the call. And remember, be really, really nice.

Other bands to ask: AFGHAN WHIGS, BLOOD CIRCUS, CAT BUTT, DICKLESS, SKIN YARD, SWALLOW & TAD

It would be nice to see an extension of SP 2Oth anniversary fest in Europe. Don’t really care where, as long as I don’t have to pay those freakishly expensive transatlantic air rates to fly to the US… Europe, please!!!

eh, yes, a new edition of lamefest in europe, please…

Where are the fruitbats?? Please include the Fruitbats!

Kelley Stoltz is currently on the roster, so I hope he can make it. If you can convince Red House Painters or 5ive Style to reunite—if only for a moment—you will have done a great service.

Is there anyway to find out what the times are for each band? We are flying in from Ohoenix and there are certain bands we don’t want to miss.
If you can help me out let me know.

Suznne

They just announced a tour, and are playing Seattle very close to SP20. I wonder if they could jump on the bill. Just another thought

Brian

I would like to see them make an appearance too.. since they are touring on their re-release of Bubble and Scrape

Brian

Bought a plane ticket from colorado when I heard Eric’s Trip was gonna make it – here’s hoping that hazel will be the next surprise :)

Can I haz update?

Alright maybe I am getting a little obsessive.

I know that the comedy show is taking place at the Moore Theatre, however, I was wondering if there will be any smaller Sub Pop music-related shows at any of the local venues that night (i.e. The Central, Re-bar, Crocodile Cafe, etc.)? Thanks!

Hello, i just got my tickets in the mail, and i’m extremely excited.
To peak my excitment even further, you should ask Sunny Day Real Estate to play. Maybe if you ask them pretty pretty please they might do it. I got to see Sunny Day play once, and it was the record release show for “the rising tide” which, I think, was the last time they played seattle. I was only 17 at the time and it was amazing.
If you can get them to reunite it would make my summer

Looks like Death Vessel has been added. They are listed on the beneficiaries page. Unless this is a separate event?

Death Vessel isn’t scheduled to play at SP20 out at Marymoor, but they will be playing with Les Thugs at Neumo’s on Friday, Jul 11th. This show is free. And everyone involved in any of the anniversary events gets to participate in donating a share of the proceeds to a charity of their choice. So, there are bands/artists/comedians on the beneficiaries page who won’t necessarily be playing out at Marymoor.

Also, this: www.subpop.com/sp20

Alright good to see the set times! I’m guessing two alternating stages to eliminate setup time? I’d would also guess the remaining TBAs will be less established groups since they are opening this motha up.

Exciting stuff!

Anyone want to try and guess who the last three TBAs will be.

I’ll guess Oxford Collapse, The Thermals, and Chad VanGaalen.

Although if you guys want to get Zumpano together I would be ok with that too.

It would be awesome to see The Wipers, or at least Greg Sage, as one of the remaining acts to perform at the festival. What might be even cooler would be Greg Sage backed by Krist Novoselic and Dave or Chad for a Wipers/Nirvana tribute set, since the latter was inspired by them. Of course, since there are only two weeks that remain before the shows, I’m sure this wouldn’t be a possibility though. Well, I can keep dreaming! How about for the 25th anniversary?

Another band that would be great to see in one of the remaining slots would have to be Swallow.

Is it even possible to attend both the festival and the Gutter Twins gig on Saturday? Festival ends at 10 and the show is scheduled to start at 10 as well… will you beam us over or what?

Would you please share the times each band will be playing? 12pm-10pm is a huge window of time.

Would you please share the times each band will be playing? 12pm-10pm is a huge window of time.

They already have the set times posted. http://www.subpop.com/sp20/line_up

It also seems that the Sunday ends at 9:00.

This is already going to be an amazing weekend, all the TBAs will surely just be icing on the cake.. But dammit, with all these bands reuniting TAD should play this! It would be cool if Dead Moon played as well.

Thanks, Grandpa Green!

Anyone hoping for a Rapeman reunion will be disappointed I’m sure. I was at the Touch & Go 25th when Scratch Acid and Big Black played the same stage about 2 hours apart. They didn’t play when all three were there, I can’t imagine this will be any different. I hear Albini and Washam aren’t friendly.

I grew up with these bands and just now today discovered the SP20 news via the WM3 website which took me to the PJ website that brings me here.
Funny how that works out… Anywho I am left needing a ticket for Saturday (Seaweed & Mudhoney!!!)
and Sunday (Green River!!...Hey didn’t they play the OK Hotel back in 1987?)

Got a ticket? Anyone? Pleeeeeze Help a true fan

funstunts@yahoo.com

It’s just a strange co-inkydink!

I have a ticket for sale on Saturday. Shoot me an e-mail at bensturtz@gmail.com if you’d like it.

The Marymoor site says it is depending on the event. So non-professional cameras yay or nay?

If you need tickets for Saturday (or Sunday), you might monitor the kexp.org blog. They’re giving away tickets everyday this week.

From what I understand. Not sure why exactly.

in case you don;t know – 520 bridge is going to be closed all weekend.

Here’s the skinny on 520 for the weekend, including alternate routes: skinny

I have two Sunday tickets and I’m thinking about selling them. $25 a piece! Cheap!

ajgreene@gmail.com

I am in need of two tickets for Saturday. Please be awesome and sell me some?

Webells@Gmail.com

Thanks.

so i got a laugh out of reading last.fm’s event page for this today.

http://www.last.fm/event/589231

i hope to see crowds of last.fm users in Nirvana t-shirts with confused looks on their faces.

“The Marymoor concert site has a capacity of around 4,500. That number consists of approximately 1700 reserved seats and space for 2,800 people on the lawn.”

Reserved seats?

The show is “General Admission, No Seating”.

Sure would be nice to have SP give us a definitive answer on cameras. Can one obtain a photo pass? There obviously will be cameras there. It’s just a matter of what size and type. A small pocket camera can still exceed 7 megapixels, and shoot video, so sneaking one in would be easy as pie.

With that said, the question really is, what will the crowd cops do if fans want pics and vid of their favorite bands? It would be a shame to not let the people have their fun, AND document the awesome festival without being policed.

What say you, organizer people? It is YOUR SHOW, after all! Thanks!

We need you.

I have an extra ticket for Saturday…

Would you be willing to let me buy your available ticket for saturday?
