Homecoming 2015: 2/12, 2/13, 2/14 @ The Fabulous 40 Watt!
Hey all,
I don't know if there's a thread about this yet - I looked! - but is there any word yet on the dates for Homecoming next year? If it's the same as last year, but husband has given me special dispensation to be away on our anniversary, so here's hoping!

Re: Homecoming 2015?
I just got a newsletter with show dates. There is no Homecoming scheduled. Sure hope something materializes.
Can you tell me how to tell when I've had enough?

Re: Homecoming 2015?
No guarantees and this is not based on any inside info, just trying to read between various lines, but I wouldn't make any plans for mid February.

Yep....Valentine's Day is fun in Athens
Re: Homecoming 2015?
Shovels and Rope just announced a gig in Asheville on what might be the Tuesday of Homecoming week...assuming it's the same week as last year, which seems quite possible given the mexican adventure. Food for thought...

Purely a guess but I'm betting February 12-14.

I've heard (and read) rumblings that potential openers could be Lydia Loveless and Six String Drag but you didn't hear it from me.
Re: Homecoming 2015?
I caught Six String Drag opening for DBT in Maryville, TN, this summer. Those guys are fantastic----wish they'd record a live album.

They're about to release their first new album since High Hat (named after the High Hat club in Athens) came out in 1997. Maybe a live album will be next.
Re: Homecoming 2015?
I tracked down copies of "6 String Drag" and "High Hat" after seeing them in Maryville. "High Hat" has been in my regular rotation since July. Didn't know they had a new one in the works though---thanks for the info. Will definitely buy it.
ETA: Just noticed on 6 String's website that they are scheduled in Athens on Feb 14th at 9 p.m. (venue not listed)

dot connecting is a very fun activity ain't it?
We call him Scooby Do, but Scooby doesn’t do. Scooby, is not involved
Re: Homecoming 2015?
Yep. Hope the dots are connected correctly----I would love to see 6 String Drag again.

Dazed Inn wantin' $179.00 per night. gotta be a typo
Re: Homecoming 2015?
Someone refresh my memory... Is it odd to have a good number of shows BEFORE the Homecoming shows? (Not that I'm complaining...).
Maybe just a by-product of having Homecoming in February is my guess...

I think my math is right. A fitting number to start the countdown:

Why is it that when I go to the website show listings myself, I get the old listing showing the shows in Mexico & Floyd Fest but not homecoming or UT, but when i click the link above, i get the homecoming and UT shows (but not Floydfest)?

IN!
And we have extra snow days factored in for the extraordinary bad winter we are supposed to have.

When the lights came up we all went home but never quite the same.
