Well the ACL schedule was released today and as I have said in previous posts this is day of mixed emotions and when you can get screwed because some of the bands you want to see are scheduled at the same time as other bands you want to see. This year is no different biggest surprise is with the headliners with Robert Plant & Alison Krauss. They are listed as the second artist after the Foo Fighters yet they are not one of the bands closing out one of the nights. I figured that Robert Plant & Alison Krauss, Beck and Foo Fighters would be the closers for each night. That is not the case as Manu Chao is the closer for Friday night! Are you kidding me?! That means the biggest screw job for me is on Saturday night with Robert Plant & Alison Krauss (8:15-9:30) and Beck (8:30-10:00) playing at basically the same time.
Anyways here is my tentative schedule.
Friday (the weakest day of the three days)
12:30-1:30 Will start off with Asleep With The Wheel then head over to see the last half of Rodney Crowell's set
From 1:30-2:30 is free with time to maybe discover a new band.
2:30-3:30 Jakob Dylan and the Gold Mountain Rebels
3:30-4:40 more free time
4:40-5:20 Bobby Bare Jr.
5:30-6:30 probably Hot Chip have not heard much of there stuff
6:30-7:20 Here is the big screw job of Friday for me will start off at Eli Young then head over to Ryan Bingham at 6:40
7:20-7:45 free time
7:45-8:45 Alejando Escovedo
This will most likely be the end of the night but shouldn't be as Robert Plant & Alison Krauss or Beck should be closing out Friday.
Check out the complete Friday schedule here
Look for my tentative Saturday and Sunday in a post later today.
