What does anyone know about the Bunbury Festival at Sawyer Point this same weekend?  Is it possible that Forecastle, Pitchfork and Bunbury will kind of share artists that weekend?

What does anyone know about the Bunbury Festival at Sawyer Point this same weekend?

Very good question! I had forgotten that this is happening the same weekend. Although I am a little sceptical since we (or at least I) have heard absolutely nothing further about this following the initial and very vague announcement. Have there been any further annoucements since then?

I think it's still happening.  There was chatter on Twitter the other day so they sent out this tweet:

I'm hearing there could be a MusicNow Festival announcement today too.

I'm really wondering how Forecastle and Bunbury can co-exist on the same weekend, given the small distance between the 2 cities. I had thoughts about going to Forecastle, until I was reminded of Bunbury. Now I can say pretty much for sure that I will not attend Forecastle. Sharing artists makes it only 'worse' of course. Why go to Louisville when you can see the same artists right here?
