    What the Fuck are you talking about?

    Artists allegedly approached include Daft Punk, Bruce Springsteen, Eminem, Ariana Grande, Coldplay, Phish, The Weeknd, Elton John, Bon Jovi, Pearl Jam, Foo Fighters, Pink, The Who, Santana, Zac Brown Band, Mumford & Sons, and The Chainsmokers (featuring Syracuse University alumnus Drew Taggart). Avicii was also included, but @TheFestiveOwl points out the images were from sponsorship proposals earlier this year, before the superstar DJ's death.

    "Woodstock 2019 has been confirmed in an official announcement. The lineup is currently unknown, but last month Festive Owl reported a rumor that in the spring of this year, a pitch was being made for a 2019 Woodstock festival with Pearl Jam, Foo Fighters, Logic, Chance The Rapper, Pink, Lorde, The Weeknd, Coldplay, Kesha, Mumford and Sons, Lumineers, Demi Lovato, Ariana Grande, Eminem, Graham Nash, Neil Young, Santana, The Who, Phish, Joan Baez, Bon Jovi, Elton John, The Doobie Brothers, Zac Brown Band, Florida Georgia Line, Jason Aldean, Daft Punk, Swedish House Mafia, Deadmau5, Skrillex, Steve Aoki, and Chainsmokers proposed as artists to attempt to book. Artists being part of a pitch to be booked obviously is vastly different than any of these artists being on the verge of being booked, so the rumor should be taken with a grain of salt at this time."

    If the bolded bands are indeed confirmed then I guess, yes, holy shit, I'm going to a fucking Woodstock festival.

    Interesting...some of those bands, I would not cross the street to see
    If they have a VIP with seats and/or access away from the average Trump supporter I will be in.

    The Italian market is the oldest operating open air market in the country. It is a full year thing which I go to almost weekly, but a lot of people have Christmas traditions going and picking up Christmas food and all.

    Also, not exactly Italian anymore. Butchers and cheese spots are all still Italian. Produce is Asian...toooooons of Mexican spots

    Had a night out with the wife’s people. The feeling about signing either is not good...to say the least

    went last night. Pretty cool venue. Kinda reminded me of a combination of The Tower, The Troc and the Merriam theater. If you do go there try and find off street parking. Lots were expensive. I parked near the Union Transfer and just walked (about 3/4 mile).

    It looked smaller than the tower, it was seated though. kinda weird. The Met holds 3,500 and the tower hold 3,100. The floor section seemed smaller. I guess the upper levels hold more? I couldn't really see them though cause i was towards the back on the orch. floor

    Was there Saturday night as well! Definitely an old opera house. You walk in and boom doors to the theater right there.

    Great show, by the way. I guess I didn't realize how good he is at playing guitar.

    Imagine if the Phillies didn’t sign Santana or cubs nerd and did sign JD Martinez...in how much better spot would this team would be?

    I laugh uncontrollably when I turn on the mummers parade on TV each New Year's day.  So ridiculous.  
    I like that people can have fun.

    I just want this whole Harper/Machado saga to come to an end ASAP. Now I'm seeing Harper may drag this out into February because he feels, rightly so, that he'll have move leverage after Machado signs. Ugh.....

    Yeah I've mentally prepared myself for the outcome that they get neither. And that's fine. I think you should have your ceiling on what you're willing to offer and continue to build your roster regardless of whether you get either of them. If neither of them remotely wants to be here then I would stop pursuing them.
