Is this the same sort of thing as the Catalina Wine Mixer?

I live in Long Beach so this is a no-brainer. Food trucks, craft beer, and music... all across the road from the beach/marina.

Tempted as I'd also enjoy seeing The Church perform Starfish.

Will wait to see what New Order announces elsewhere before I commit.

Pulled the trigger: Tickets, Flight, Hotel.

Going to do both days to catch the Church set. Opted for the VIP tickets. How could I say no to "Flushable “Comfort Station” Restrooms"?

I am going to the Music Tastes Good Festival; just Saturday however.

New Order scheduled to appear on the Franklin Stage 8:30pm-9:50pm.

If you're on the fence about attending...

We are going today (Saturday) and are planning to have dinner in the area and arrive about an hour before New Order begins.

Short but sweet: Setlist.fm

Every track was great aside from some shaky vocals on Regret.

Synths were up in the mix and sounded superb. A few tracks differed a bit from when I heard them in Hollywood last year. There were some changes to the accompanying videos as well.

Also, to the surprise of many, the festival allowed them to go over their time limit to deliver an encore of LWTUA.

Quite a nice set list. I love that both Sub-Culture and Vanishing Point are getting regular airings. VP especially is one of the band’s very best songs. An absolute masterpiece.

Encore aside, that is a very dance-friendly setlist.

Although it was a festival, clearly many were there just for NO. And dance they did.

That was the best NO gig I've seen (out of 6). Everything was just *on*.

I've posted a few photos of the festival here (taken with my phone, so I apologize for the non-optimal quality): http://ec2-34-217-24-43.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com/photos/new-order-music-tastes-good-09-29-2018.html

If I remember correctly, Bernard remarked on stage that the festival had a "good vibe". It was an excellent but, as Bernard himself lamented, a somewhat short set. I especially liked the background projections during Singularity, apparently a documentary with footage of punks in mid eighties Berlin.

He did. I loved that little festival - it's what Coachella felt like c. 2006.
