I suspect Underworld will get 90 minutes. I'm just pissed I have to deal with a who's who of electro bullshit for however long I'm there before Underworld goes on. At least there's an open bar in the VIP. That's where I'll be getting tanked while Crystal Castles and Crookers and Chromeo and whoever else is on.

According to this, the festival is going from 8 PM - 4 AM, so UW probably won't be going on stage until well after midnight.

That's an excellent plan. You can hide in the Forum Club and make the most of that VIP pricing. :D

From that link, I'm wondering what "Below the arena, a second stage will be erected in THE UNDERGROUND" means. There's actually an area to put another stage underneath the Forum? But it's interesting they're going for an in-the-round setup for the main stage. As for set times, yeah, I was wondering what time Underworld would even go on. The set times from last year's show ( http://www.last.fm/event/578522 ) showed that the headliner, N*E*R*D (the one whose name was the first on the flyer) came on at midnight. MSTRKRFT was second-billed and supposedly came on at 1:10am.

Re: Underworld @ HardFest Los Angeles Aug 8th

Oh, sounds like they could be on around midnight then.

Re: Underworld @ HardFest Los Angeles Aug 8th

Hopefully they'll post set times by July or so, that way everyone can plan accordingly (and possibly ignore everything else happening at this festival).

i just looked at UW on facebook and it say's they are on from 10:25 to 11:25:confused:

edit: which of the US dates are their very own concerts re: not part of a festival?

That could just be a placeholder time so the event can be posted on Facebook. I'd say don't get too worked up until the schedule is posted on the Hard Fest site.

Oakland and Vegas, on the other hand, are their own shows.

Re: Underworld @ HardFest Los Angeles Aug 8th

My guess is 12:30am to 2am...then have a couple more DJ slots behind them.

Re: Underworld @ HardFest Los Angeles Aug 8th

I'm making charts and graphs and maps to help me figure out if I can attend all three shows in a row: Vegas, Oakland and Los Angeles.

Luckily I'm L.A. based, so I can just crash at home after Hardfest. But man, that's a lot of $$$ and music.

So Yannick, were the 2 additional dates in the US (Vegas & Oakland) the "loads more dates" you were referring to? Still wondering if we're going to get any more shows.
