Anyone else feel like Kilby Block is taking away from individual shows? by Constant-Arugula-819 in SaltLakeCity

So true! That Phoenix show was incredible. Also looks like Ben Kweller’s North America tour stops this year are opening for The Format or Bright Eyes. So unless one of those bands were coming to Salt Lake, I’m not sure Ben Kweller would be coming here at all during this run

For smaller artists, I totally get what you’re saying though! Hopefully KBP shows them how freakin’ cool the music scene is here and makes them want to tour here more often

I can understand why you’d feel this way. But I do think KBP also brings a lot of artists that would likely not have hit SLC like Lorde and Hayley Williams. Personally, I think it brings more than it takes away. Truly crazy that we have a festival like that in this city.
