We Are Officially Two Months Out From Riot Fest and My Schedule is Better Than Yours

Lollapalloza is here next week, which means that the countdown to Chicago's best music festival is truly on, and we are now less than 60 days away from Riot Fest. To celebrate and tease the shit out of you having to still wait that long, our friends at Riot Fest have released a schedule builder. After spending the last few months with the official Riot Fest playlist, here's where you'll be able to catch me in two months' time:

What I like about this schedule is being able to stay in relatively one place for chunks at a time. Weird World stage over to Riot, then food, then Rebel before the Weird Al/Blink capper. Close to a perfect day.

I'm going to headbang so hard that I may not make it to Sunday. Militarie Gun into Helmet might cause permanent spinal damage before the sun even goes down. And as much as I love the Blue Album, I really need to catch the Sex Pistols, so I may head out after 'Surf Wax America' or so to check out Frank Carter and the boys.

I might as well just call this the RADICAL day because I'm gonna be there pretty much all day. That should tell you how amazing the buzz is behind The Paradox that I would leave a primo spot just to catch them over on the Roots stage. I never thought I'd consider a The Academy Is... set a chance to catch my breath, but sandwiched between IDLES and Green Day, it may be my last chance to not have my body thrown about like a rag doll.
