10. You didn’t remember Neckbrace Fest 1.o until you saw yourself in one of the spots. You were the one rolling around on the ground in the fetal position.
9. Barley Island beer…a considerable step up from the Stroh’s that got you in the predicament of rolling around on the ground in the fetal position and crying realistic tears at 1.0.
8. “How To Say Goodbye” from start to finish, glowing against the side of a barn in the middle of nowhere, with the infinite cosmos behind, in all of it’s starry and mysterious glory.
7. Speed Limit Soldiers…When Hell Freezes Over style. They left everyone hanging in the dark too long.
6. At some point in the evening a “town hall” style debate about health care reform will probably break out ending only when BLT explains every one of the thousand some odd pages of the proposed legislation in his new album “I Make Mine.”
5. Dean Moore, Noah East, Robert Mathison, and The Badger and the Bologna, implementing themselves seamlessly into the flawless infrastructure of the Snarling Wolf Hat.
4. Trinkets for sale, including the latest Tony Marshall album “Centralia,” which I’m pretty sure, given you’re not related to Tony Marshall or named Cory Hill, you do not yet own.
3. The first ever live performance of “Bill” and “Murray,” back to back in their epic entirety, the way they were meant to be enjoyed.
2. Because this time there is actually going to be music…I swear to God there really is.
1. It’s a music festival, and I’m guessing you’re probably not going to be at a music festival on the 15th if you’re not at Neckbrace Fest 2.0. You’re probably going to be doing something quite a bit lamer, and that’s okay I guess, but you don’t have to live that way for God’s sake. Just come.
