Well that is some odd booking…
Milwaukee announced their Summerfest Lineup for this year. Thursday July 5th seems to be Jam Band Night with Bob Weir and Ratdog, Umphrey’s McGee, Keller Williams, Donna the Buffalo, and Rusted Root all playing on the same night and some on different stages competing against each other.
To me that is a bit odd to have a lot of the same band competing over a lot of the same audience, especially when the other stages have such different acts. The other acts performing on the other stages that night are is Bon Jovi, Sevendust, and BB King…
I just felt this was kind of odd and probably not the best strategy when booking a large festival. Why not space them out over a period of time? When looking at the lineup it just kind of stuck out like a sore thumb to me.
What was the weirdest booking you have ever seen?
