That would be absolutely fantastic! 🙂

Sofia is a massive trek from Chicago. I really doubt they could pull off a show in Chicago on the 22nd and then be back in Sofia by the 23rd if they're traveling by bus. How many buses actually run those routes? I'm thinking it’s at least a 16-hour haul... Unless, obviously, they're flying.

It’s more like 12 hours max, honestly. If they head out at 2 AM, they'll be there by early afternoon. They could even pull off a Tuesday show—with digital mixers nowadays, you don't even need much setup time...

hiddenharbor66 said:Sofia is quite a distance from Washington, D.C., isn't she? I find myself wondering if it’s even feasible for them to play on the 22nd in Washington, D.C. and then hit Sofia on the 23rd if they're relying on buses. I'm not entirely certain about the frequency of those routes, but I'd imagine it's at least a sixteen-hour haul... unless, of course, they decide to fly.

A bus? Honestly... LOL... In this day and age, people travel via private jets chartered specifically for a tour, wouldn't you agree?😉

I’m honestly skeptical about whether I can make those dates work—on their last run, they were asking for a ton of downtime between shows... plus, getting to Sofia is going to be a nightmare because the traffic over there is absolutely brutal.

I mean, just look at what happened before: one pro driver coming in from Romania ended up stuck on the road for over 30 hours, even though the tour manager had promised it would only take maybe 14 or 16.

I honestly think we should just wait until they officially announce that AIC is playing at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival; then, and only then, can we finally put an end to all these endless debates about transportation logistics.🙂

"Says the organizers of Coachella." ???

Seriously, I heard about one champion who was traveling from Romania and it took him over 30 hours, even though the tour manager promised it would only be about 14 to 16.

People, get real—there are actual PLANES!

It’s the same old story when editors show up to cover an event. They just say whatever sounds official.

Look, honey, bands like that don't just hop on commercial flights. If they’re playing shows day in and day out, we're talking private jets or nothing. Besides, AIC isn't KISS, Metallica, or Iron Maiden.

amberranger said:Honey, bands of that scale don't just hop on commercial flights. If they’re running a daily tour schedule, you're looking at nothing less than a private jet. And let's be real—AIC isn't KISS, Metallica, or Iron Maiden.

Total pessimist.🙂

A realist. I’ve been in the trenches doing this work, so believe me when I say I know how it actually goes.

As it stands, the festival is a complete disaster—pardon my language, but it’s simply not worth the ticket price...

If they get it fixed in time, I might actually bring Faith No More. Sadly, Slayer is off the table 😠

I’ve had some time to sit back and really process everything, and honestly? I think this lineup might actually be the best one I've ever seen at a festival 😍 (and trust me, I’ve hit up enough of them to know—we're talking double digits here!)
It’s probably going to get even better, too!

plus, it’ll probably end up being even better than I’m expecting

Sarcasm? If it wasn't meant to be sarcasm, then I guess it really should have been.

🙄
Sarcasm is honestly just the weapon of choice for people who have nothing else to say 🙂

Massive Attack 👋
👋 Massive Attack 👋
LCD Soundsystem 👋
Flogging Molly 👋
!😍!👋!🙂

And all this drama just for $83 what I actually shelled out for my ticket—if my memory serves me right, last year Massive and Martin were going for $220 while Flogging Molly was only $120

Man, if they actually brought out BooYa Tribe, I wouldn't even complain about anything else.
