The lineup isn't set in stone just yet.
We might still add a few more bands... we'll let you know as soon as we can. It all really comes down to the budget. 🙂

Good grief! 🙏

Hey, WCIF!!! 🙏 🙏 🙏

This is where it's headed... 👋

I really feel like I need to go to thisooooooo 😢.

So where exactly do we land with this Kset 4.4. + Spunk 5.4. stuff? 🤔

Wait, how is it possible that the entire festival isn't just one big SPUNK? 🙂

As most of you probably already heard, Spunk has been closing at midnight lately. Because of that, we wouldn't be able to cover the bar costs if we did two days at Spunk zaredom.

So, there will be a cover charge for the first day at Kset, of course. The second day at Spunk is free, just like always... except the music will start early, around 8 PM, maybe even sooner if another band decides to jump in. We'll wrap things up by midnight.

In a few years, once we get our act together—if everything goes according to plan—we could have the first day at the Lisinski, the HGZ, or maybe even that handball Arena, and the second day... Spunk, as per usual. It all depends on having the health and the sense to pull it off. 🤷

Spunk, just like always. As long as everyone stays healthy and actually uses their brains... 🤷

What are you guys even talking about? Your ultimate goal should be playing at the city square for Stenmark and Tomb. 😁 🙂

Honestly, I could see that happening... but only down in the restroom under the square.
Imagine walking up to some old lady and telling her Alex Scott22 put you on the list.😍

Absolutely fantastic!🙏

Alex Scott22 said:Honestly, I can totally see it happening... but only down in the restroom under the downtown square.
Just imagine walking up to some old lady and telling her that Alex Scott22 put you on the list... 😍

Yeah, and the flyers would be printed on toilet paper, too... specifically that pink two-ply stuff... 🤣

stormyviper11 said:Yeah, and they used that cheap, double-layered pink paper for the flyers... 🤣

When exactly do we actually become a society built on transparency and justice?
I'm already picturing myself drafting a formal proposal to City Hall about hosting a festival at the Jelačić station restrooms.

Well... we've got our own dark horse ready to shake up the future state government too.
Look, if Obama can make it to the White House, then our guy Lale could totally pull off becoming the Mayor of Chicago one day. He's young, he's good-looking, and he's from a minority background. Anything is possible.
They’re going to build a narrow-gauge railway complete with a tunnel. It’ll run from Kset to Spunk, right through the square. 🤷

Alex Scott22 said:Most of you have probably heard by now, but Spunk has been wrapping things up at midnight lately.

Wait, how, why, and since when? 😕
Did they just finish building some skyscraper nearby or something? 😁

The NSB, acting as the property owner, is supposed to grant permission for a night bar (basically, extending the operating hours)

But then some new director rolls in who can't stand having half the world gathering around the cathedral of the spirit.

I've got this idea in mind
to overcome the shame
and face the truth
on the streets of New York City
beautiful, isn't it?
catch II

Spunk is an awesome spot, but the crowds they get there can be absolutely brutal.
Or is that just part of the alternative scene?

Mostly just good vibes🙂

Alex Scott22 said:And then some new director rolls in who absolutely hates having everyone congregate around the spirit of the cathedral.

Yeah, it’s like they’re cramming all night at Yale now, so there just can't be any distractions.😁

SPUNK, Saturday, May 5th, 8 PM

Why is the second day even on the fifth month?😂
