It seems like Any other Planet Leisure knew what they had been doing with the alt-metal programming for the weekend after Out of doors Lands in Golden Gate Park.
3 days in the past we discovered the lineup for the live performance taking place Saturday, August 17 on the Polo Box within the park, the weekend after the three-day fest Out of doors Lands. Headliners Gadget of a Down and Deftones might be joined through The Mars Volta, Viagra Boys, and VOWWS for a 3-to-10 pm live performance that can make the most of the level setup, concession buildings, porta-potties, and VIP front room already in position from the former weekend.
There have been a few days of pre-sales happening for tickets, and Friday morning used to be most of the people sale kickoff. And inside 90 mins, Any other Planet introduced on Xitter that the display used to be bought out.
“We will be able to’t wait to peer all 50k of you on Saturday, August 17 on the Polo Box!” the organizers write.
As we famous prior to now, that is the one live performance that SoCal-born Gadget of a Down might be doing this 12 months outdoor of the sold-out Unwell New Global Competition, which is occurring in two weeks in Las Vegas, and it appears they and those different bands have a large number of Bay Space enthusiasts.
KPIX notes that Gadget of a Down “has turn into one of the fashionable alternative-metal bands in the world, regardless of now not freeing a brand new album in virtually twenty years and simplest making sporadic are living appearances for fairs and headlining excursions.” (Louder mag not too long ago printed a work at the new studio album the band has supposedly been running on for greater than a decade and which would possibly by no means see the sunshine of day.)
And, KPIX writes, Deftones are “arguably the most important band to ever emerge” from Sacramento, so they convey a vital fan draw of their very own. They launched their 9th studio album in 2020.
That is the second one native competition to spin off a 2d weekend this 12 months and get to repurpose their already put in and built-out competition setups. On June 1 and a pair of, Napa will see the primary ever Competition L. a. Onda, a two-day fest faithful fully to Latin song which follows one week after BottleRock, from the BottleRock group.
Subsequent 12 months in Golden Gate Park, we will be able to almost certainly be expecting greater than only a one-day live performance deal following Out of doors Lands. The San Francisco Board of Supervisors gave approval to Any other Planet to do an additional two or 3 days of programming on that 2d weekend, and this 12 months it kind of feels they determined initially only a unmarried day to check the waters.
Will that imply an entire, multi-day heavy metallic fest? We will see.
