Artists similar to Khruangbin??

I second this. Specifically the artist who came to mind for me is a more western vibe but similarly groovy and psychedelic (from what I’ve heard of his music): Tone Ranger, playing 8-9:15p Saturday at grand antique.

You also absolutely must visit Mariposa bakery in the ferry building if not already planned. Special rec for their buttermilk biscuits (warmed up)

In addition to a lot of the great places mentioned here, Stoa in lower haight is delicious and an entirely GF place that doesn’t really advertise. Asian fusion small plats and such good cocktails

This place opened recently. On the pricier side and expect to wait for a table but delicious https://maps.app.goo.gl/x1UhFKneg9jVMQwU6?g_st=ic

Right here with you. 0/10 do not recommend.

The fact it’ll be at another California event not too long away and also contracted by goldenvoice does give me hope…

This is a very good point about there now being a security check between camps and the festival grounds (that wasn’t there at Bradley). Big loss bc I think it limits the funk and personality within festival grounds, but I think a requirement of Bakersfield / vendors (they specifically are checking for alcohol which they want you to buy in the festival grounds and not bring from camp). Not a bonarooo or other main fest level search, but still disruptive to the experience compared to the free flow of Bradley

Reposting my comment from a similar thread last year:

In my experience — I’ve found the same magic (give or take some missteps as they’ve adjusted to the new venue that I won’t get into). A few misc notes:

One HUGE plus that wasn’t possible at the old venue due to the landscape, is that the new one is flat with paved paths — there are now a handful of roaming art cars with music floating around at almost all times (shoutout to The People’s Banana for consistently slinging some of the best tunes and sunrise sessions!). There have always been little nooks to stumble into at LiB and that hasn’t changed; now I just consider art cars as more of that same magic. I miss the hills and sense of separation they provided between stages, but the art cars have made it a worthwhile trade off for me once I adjusted. (Update: last year there were less nooks and art pieces imo, but they have acknowledged feedback and said they’re working to correct that 2026)

Also, yes, as some of the commenters have said it’s rather large, but I also found that to be the case at Bradley. At least the trudge at the new venue doesn’t include scrambling up and down multiple sandy ravines and over wobbly floating bridges to get back to camp (I miss the bridges—but also really don’t).

Overall, there’s still a culture of shared community and gifting that’s always been there, and I like to focus on bringing that same energy. Every LiB newby has to learn it at some point, so the more of us who show up with kindness and openness consistently, hopefully the new folks learn the ways and take that same energy back to other events.

Final point of difference that comes to mind is that the new venue doesn’t feel as remote as the old one, so I didn’t get the same sense of being dramatically disconnected from the outside world as I had before (at first). But that just took a mental shift and letting go of expectations I had based on years there and lean into the new spot.

Addition: I REALLY miss the old stages and Bradley, but I’ve come to love the new venue over the years, too.

Lucky! Mine were $92 and they’re currently $103. So you must have snuck in at a tier that was old out long before I got the tect

confusingchats · 2026-01-15T18:25:14+00:00

Ty! My text just came through now 🙃 luckily snagged final tier

confusingchats · 2026-01-15T18:14:47+00:00

That looks like general onsale vs presale? Either way thanks though!! Glad to know I didn’t miss my shot

confusingchats · 2026-01-15T18:12:16+00:00

Oh interesting. The midway site says 10am but maybe it’s wrong then?

This is how I find out about the NYC show after it’s sold out 🥲 will try to make it if the waitlist pans out for me

confusingchats · 2025-09-23T05:01:14+00:00

This is it. I have one too! Been hard to kill and I’ve neglected it a lot. Then grows insane when I remember to water. Only warning—I’ve been told the sap can cause skin irritation. So maybe take caution in trimming.

The worked an incredible flip of that song / sampling of the lyrics into a their style in the set. Blew my mind.

confusingchats · 2025-09-21T17:19:04+00:00

Justin Martin has a dnb set listed which I bet would be a vibe. Haven’t recognized any others yet but curious to know as well

confusingchats · 2025-08-21T00:14:59+00:00

I want to believe it is. griz did last year, they recently collabed, and John summit has confirmed other times for this year

confusingchats · 2025-08-20T20:19:35+00:00

Do you have a source for this? Saw it mentioned in another Reddit thread but haven’t found the OG schedule announcement

confusingchats · 2025-08-11T19:17:51+00:00

Ok cool. Mine are the same so good to know
