Some names I wasn't expecting on there:

Blind Melon (who is singing???)
Marcy Playground (they have more than one song?)
10000 Maniacs (with someone not named Nat Merchant, apparently)
Squirrel Nut Zippers (See Marcy Playground)

Some that would be worth the effort:

Sturgill
The Hold Steady (why are they on the same line as the fricking Spin Drs???)
Ringo (frick it, he's a living Beatle)
Pixies (hope Deal has signed on for this)
TV on the Radio
Bonamossa
AL Shakes
Jack White

All in all, not a bad way to spend a few days if you're still into festivals.

Had an great time overall at B&B last year and went 3 days (bourbon tour day in-between).

Not the most user-friendly fest, but the lineup is always impressive (especially with other festivals being meh lately). They manage to scratch just about every musical itch.

Get tix early if you want a chair pass (allowing you to bring in a chair). Those sold out quick, and they limit areas where you can put down a towel to sit on.

Another downside was the short sets that allow for such a large bill. Early day acts like Lyle Lovett and Grace Bowers only got 30 minutes last year. I'm sure it took Lyle and his large band longer to get dressed than they had on stage.

Mary Ramsey has been their vocalist basically since merchant left however long that’s been

solid lineup obviously… I would prefer fewer bands and longer sets but that’s a personal preference

I was recently wondering what has happened to them. Happy to see they are still rolling along.

This surprises me. I guess Britt finally swallowed her pride and realized that the band made her great. This is needed; AS is fantastic while her solo stuff sucked.

Lot of good bands in the smaller print there, wow. You know it's a good festival when Dawes and Iron and Wine are that far down on the list.

Stackedddd lineup. Might be in on this and I’ve read the VIP is worth it unlike the main other fests currently.

If B&B lineup is out, Louder Than Life is coming soon. They’ve been announcing one band a day and it’s looking stacked.
