Sonic Youth to play Dickson St. Fest in Arkansas?

pantophobia · 02.21.2008, 06:33 PM

Charlie Daniels, .38 Special, Little Feat... Sonic Youth?!
Sorry Coachella, THIS is the festival lineup of the year

No, we are not making this up.
To quote reader Jason Springman, who tipped us off (via the Fayetteville Flyer): ".38 Special and Sonic Youth, finally together and not just in my dreams!"

This is potentially legendary.

They're playing the Saturday date, it seems...I've currently seen 38
SY shows. I can see myself going to this one, then at the very next one
at a more typical tour stop be outside in line telling some other fans, "Yeah,
this is number 40 for me. The last two before this one were the Daydream
Nation show in Brooklyn and the fuckin' Snapple Fest in Arkansas. SY were okay, but when Little Feat did 'Lonesome Loser', shiiiiiiit."

Little Feat. Wow.

You must be the record-holder on here.

It's between me, Chris Lawrence and Toxic Johnny.

Tokolosh · 02.21.2008, 07:30 PM

Do you mind telling me when you first saw them?

jennthebenn · 02.21.2008, 07:34 PM

5/7/98, 9:30 Club in DC. I've been a fan since 1990, but it took me 8 years
to see them live, for a variety of reasons. From that point on, I decided
to make up for lost time by seeing them multiple times per tour. 12 times in
'06 is my personal record.

Tokolosh · 02.21.2008, 07:45 PM

You can say that again!

I've seen them 5 times.
