How many times has your must see list gone unfulfilled, leaving you with a mental [ ] next to some great band you almost saw?
Any chance you get to see them this year at EFF?
Over the years, I've tried to eliminate my desire to see any certain set while at a festival. There's so many bands I circle in my head when I first see a list. But there's as many times I don't want to leave the stage I'm at, or don't want to miss 2 great bands for the sake of one. So now I try and remember that for me, it's all about the festival in it's entirety. Rather than putting a lot of pressure on myself to check off a list of every single set I might have wished for, I try and roll with no regrets in the moment. I end up less brokenhearted.
I had seen them before, but I missed SCi in '09 after looking forward to it all spring. I won't be missing them this year. Or it seems very unlikely, given I get 3 cracks at it. ;D

I've never been to roth, but I remember being really dissapointed missing Two Fresh and Big G at Summer Camp last year.. I also missed STS9 late night at Scamp, and I'd like to see them added to the list!

Oh man, talk about an EFF'd situation. Emptied the van, left the momma' there with the kids. Can't believe people had their priorities screwed like that.

It doesn't matter what fest I attend, I always seem to miss the 1st act I have on my list to see. It doesn't matter if they're in an opening spot, or later in the day, something always seems to happen.... Once I missed 1/2 of Willie Nelson's set because I ate a loaded brownie for breakfast. Never made that mistake again

I have a much better time if I simply go in with the expectation of making new friends and having a great weekend. I'm ALWAYS able to do that
