I've volunteered for MidPoint three years straight and have no problem volunteering for Bunbury. Sure some people make money off of my efforts, but I also save $100 for 8 hours of "work". For 4 hours I was working front gate, so I couldn't see any bands. For my other 4 hour shift I was cleaning, which means I wandered the site and picked up trash. I still got to see the bands I wanted to while I was cleaning, so I didn't mind. Essentially I was paid $25/hour to pick up plastic cups while watching bands. Not a bad gig for me.

 

I agree that anyone who paid $45 on any day and didn't see the headliner is stupid. I saw every headliner. I also think people who paid $45 and only saw the headliner are stupid. There were 10 hours of music each day and people show up for one of them.

 

Also, I thought Jane's Addiction was pretty bad. I saw them three years ago when they played with Nine Inch Nails for their goodbye tour, and thought they were alright. I like some of their old stuff and respect the impact they had on the whole rock genre. Unfortunately, Friday's performance was not very good.

 

And a lot of money went to the Cincinnati Parks, police, security, bands, etc. There were volunteers, but our jobs were pretty effortless and just allowed the festival to run smoothly. I was happy to volunteer my time in return for a free 3-day pass.

jmecklenborg, why so much negativity against this event? First, you continue to slam them for attendance numbers that simple seem too good to you and then hate on them for soliciting volunteers to work this event. Even if the use of volunteers instead of additional paid staff increased their profits, so be it. Good for the promoters. They need to make money for this event to happen again. Besides, there were PLENTY of paid staff (in the neon green shirts) that worked 8-12 hour shifts each day. This event wasn't solely run by volunteers.

 

Come down off your high horse.... nobody here was being "hosed by the industry" -- if one was inimpressed by the offer to go free all weekend, they did not sign up to volunteer. We even had the opportunity to choose our volunteer timeslots so we could try to plan around the bands we wanted to see. I also volunteered for 8 hours over 2 days and got free admission all weekend. I'll second all of ryanlammi's comments. We were treated very well, given free water/gatorade, breaks and free food vouchers. The organization was top notch all around.

 

Didn't Media Bridges move? So they probably aren't going to be a venue either (just struck it off the list).

 

They moved to the CET building on Central Parkway across from Music Hall.

Wow, that's great that one got free admission for the weekend for volunteering, they are not doing that for the Dayton music event - http://www.downtownrevival.com/index.php/getInvolved/#Volunteers

I imagine Grammer's will still have a stage of some sort.  I hope they do, I really liked that setting for this type of music festival.  It was literally in the back yard of a block of OTR buildings, which made it unique and unexpected. As much as I love Washington Park, it won’t be as interesting/quaint/unique of a venue as the back lot at Grammer’s was.

The only reason I kind of doubt that they will use Grammer's is because of noise issues. That stage always closed early (10pm or so) to avoid keeping the neighbors up. It would awesome if they could keep Grammer's open for MidPoint and have bands play until 1am (far after Washington Park ends at 10-11pm) but I don't think it would work out.

 

Since Andrew Bird, Sleigh Bells and Grizzly Bear are playing Washington Park, there won't be any use for a huge outdoor tent at Grammer's because it won't be filled unless they announce three more amazing bands that will draw huge crowds and they sell tickets exclusively to that show too. But that is unrealistic.

 

I agree that Grammer's was a very unique place to have the main stage, but it appears that those days are over. Those pictures of the headliners with Music Hall behind them will be incredible and I think it will attract even bigger acts in the future. Though how much bigger can we get at MidPoint? It's almost as big as I can imagine this type of festival getting (not at an ampitheater, arena, or middle of BuFu, Tennessee)... though maybe I'm wrong...

Not to be overly optimistic but MPMF could grow tremendously in the vein of SXSW. My impression the last couple years was that any moderately hyped show would immediately become over capacity.  The epicness of Washington Park will certainly strengthen the draw of the festival.

Well, I suppose my "how much bigger can we get" comment was about headliners. There is no venue I can think of bigger than Washington Park we could utilize in OTR. I just think the main stage is as big as we can get. I think we could continue to get bigger acts to fill up the bars as well. I think that is the only way MidPoint can grow at this point is from the middle, not the top.

 

But I agree that MPMF has the leadership, dates, location, and uniqueness to propel it further, I just don't think the headliners will be able to get much bigger.

The headliners could be bigger if a venue were used such as Music Hall, but the admission structure might have to change.

Music Hall currently seats 3500 people, and they are talking about cutting that down significantly with the renovation. Washington Park's Civic Lawn is 49,000 SQFT and estimating 2.5-10 SQFT/person in crowds, between 4,900 and 19,600 can fit in washington park. So even in a loose crowd of 10 SQFT/person, more people can fit in Washington Park than Music Hall. The stage will take up some space, vendors, etc, but more people can definitely fit in Washington Park.

 

And the logistics of nabbing Music Hall for a Thursday, Friday, and Saturday night in September seems pretty difficult. I also don't think playing in Music Hall would fit the "feel" of MPMF, but that is more of a subjective argument.

Why did people volunteer for this?  I mean, this was a money-making venture, and anyone who worked there deserved to make at least minimum wage.  So if they in fact sold 50,000 tickets at $45 each, they brought in $2,225,000.  Seems like there'd be a little of that they could have tossed to the "worker bees".  I've got an attidude with this because I have spent so much of my life around music and have seen how people have been hosed by the industry.  Like publishing or art dealers, music promoters take advantage of people's passion. 

 

Also, anyone who paid $45 to be there Friday and didn't stay for Jane's Addiction is just plain stupid.  They wrote and recorded two of the must unusual records of all time (their recent records suck), records that still fry anything by anyone else on the bill.  I thought their performance was uneven, and am critical of their attempt to present their old material in its original context, but there's no denying that the songwriting and the musicianship is on another level from anything else at that festival.  It's an important band, period, and if you're a "music" fan, you don't avoid them.  It's like walking out on The Grateful Dead or Elvis because you think you don't like them. 

 

This is a bit silly.  Yes, how dare anyone not like Jane's Addiction, how dare anyone spend $45 and then decide for themselves what bands to see.  I've seen them several times and they put on a bad show.  Comparing them to Elvis is hilarious.  This is just an aggressively hostile, strange post all around.

>First, you continue to slam them for attendance numbers that simple seem too good to you and then hate on them for soliciting volunteers to work this e

event.

 

Sure, look at what I wrote.  If the attendance figures are as high as they claim, the promoters literally walked away with over $1 million in profits.  When that much money is changing hands you deserve $ in your pocket and not just a free ticket.  Also, I have photographed many concerts, worked the merch table or whatever, and it's not as nice as just being a member of the general audience.  You simply cannot concentrate on the performances to the same degree.  I give my work away all the time for things I care about, but not to people who are pocketing any kind of serious money off what I do for them. 

 

 

>Yes, how dare anyone not like Jane's Addiction,

 

What they did on those first two albums was about as ambitious as music gets, and they totally nailed it.  I mean, none of the young bands on the bill came anywhere close to playing anything as sophisticated as what's going on on the B-side of Ritual de lo Habitual.  Oh, then there's the whole pesky issue of Perry Ferrell having invented the multi-stage summer music festival -- the very thing Bunbury was modeled after. 

 

 

 

 

^ How do you know how much they pocketed from the event? Do you have figures as to how much it cost to put on? How much each band, security, police, park personnel, and organizers were paid as well as the rental equipment for lighting, stages, tents, water, radios, etc were?

 

Also, imagine if each admission was from a 3-day wristband. Then they would have had $1.67 ($33/day/person) million in revenue. So while there revenue may have been about $2 million (mixture of 3-day and 1-day passes), do you know how much it cost to put on? I have no clue. But some bands demand a lot of money for shows. Most headliners demand high six figures to play major festivals since ticket sales get split between bands and they sell less merch than at a tour they put on. These shows are more complicated to put on (stage hands, transportation of equipment and props, etc.) so they charge a lot. I imagine Weezer, DCFC, and Jane's got well into the six figures. Obviously this isn't Coachella (like the bands in the article linked), but they cost a lot more to book than you may think.

 

The work I did was so easy that I'm perfectly happy receiving a 3-day pass for my time. Sure I missed a couple of bands I wanted to see, but I was only unable to watch bands for 4 hours. The other 4 I was watching bands while picking up trash and the remaining 22 hours I was free to do what I want. I'm not trying to say you need to volunteer, but it isn't bad for someone short on cash. Getting a free wristband (~$100) for 8 hours of work brings my pay to $12.50/hour. That's about what I get paid for co-op, so I'm not complaining.

 

And I think that keeping Bunbury going is going to be good for the Cincinnati music scene, which I am passionate about. Could it have been done without me? Of course. But that's why I'm not getting paid (aside from the 3-day pass). You don't have to agree with it, but I have no issue volunteering my time to do things I love.

Well you folks aren't going to like this.

 

http://www.citybeat.com/cincinnati/article-25820-bunbury_isle_of_white.html

Imagine what it’s like to get one stale-ass Macy’s Music Festival each summer with some Rubik’s Cube version of the same late-ass line-up that was here exactly one year ago headlined by Frankie Beverly and Maze — the middle-aged black version of the Grateful Dead — who haven’t released an album since I had a perm.

 

Child lawd!  They ain't neva lied!

 

Translation: "That's very true!"

So someone complained in a racist article on City Beat about how white an indie rock festival is? Yawn.

So none of the bands booked were bands she liked and there wasn't a lot of black people there.... from what she saw, cause she admits she wasn't there.

 

And that's white people's fault?

I'm upset that there weren't any bands there that appealed to Asians!

Jake, why do you hate indie rock and "hipsters" so much? It's not your cup of tea, that's fine. You draw huge assumptions about the entire (white) youth culture. Obviously you didn't see bands like Ra Ra Riot, The Bright Light Social Hour, Tristen, Kids These Days (who I had never heard of until that day), Maps & Atlases, and more. My guess is you showed up at 9:00 Friday night to catch Jane's Addiction, were pissed that they sounded like a bunch of drugged out idiots who couldn't string coeherent sentences together, and then blamed all of your anger on the "disrespectful Cincinnati hipsters".

 

I've held back on ripping on Jane's too much, because I do realize that they were an enormous inspiration to music and guided/created alternative rock in the late 80s/early 90s. I also saw them about three years ago and thought they were ok (not great, but not bad). I will still listen to their albums on occassion. But they were terrible on Friday! The only band you even mentioned in your post was Jane's Addiction, so I can only guess that this was your favorite band growing up, they are getting old and don't play like they used to, so now you are sour about the whole music experience.

 

I don't like creating enemies, but you need to chill out about your hatred for "hipsters" and indie music. For the life of me I can't figure out why you want Bunbury to fail so much... And your quote about "just about nothing since 2000 has been any good" is complete shit. Get off your high horse and embrace some new bands. Sure they aren't all good, but my god, they aren't all bad!

Slightly disappointed with the City Beat article but not surprised as everything the author writes is race based.  It would have more creedence if the same article/theme had been written about the Macy's Festival year after year.  Some people get it and others don't  - if you like indie/alternative this festival was for you.  If not it was not.  I also concur that Jane's Addiction was not great - they were the only headliner for which we left early.  I am old enough to have been in college when they were new, but after four songs I could not watch anymore.  There were a ton of talented bands much younger than me though, and I thoroughly enjoyed most of the shows I watched.

I'm on my lunch break so I can't write a full response, but let me be clear that I don't want the festival to "fail".  But I do want people to recognize what it is.  And it's definitely the case that today's groups aren't as good as ones from ten years ago in large part because the music industry has changed so profoundly due to file sharing, etc.  Listening has changed -- cell phone trebble is the new car stereo bass. 

 

Without the monoculture, there can't be an underground that exists in opposition to it, and the thrill of a contrarian group briefly making a cameo in it (Jello Biafra on Oprah, etc.).  Meanwhile the internet has allowed outcasts to find a virtual community, whereas outcasts previously gathered around music.  All of this means music cannot occupy the same prominant role for future generations, so going to these sort of festivals with the thought that one might see a future legend is a fool's errand.  There won't be legendary musicians anymore, at least not in the same way. 

@jmecklenborg

 

I think with the advent of social media, the monoculture has only expanded its homogeneous rule in the most apparent of creative realms, not defeating an underground opposition but only making it harder to find. To assume that "outcasts" have ceased to gather around music is absurd, you're just not going to find such things at a corporate sponsored, mostly outdated " indie rock" festival.

Insofar as it makes me sound like an old curmudgeon, I tend to agree with Jake's assessment of the music industry as it is right now. For as bad as music labels are, they did provide a filter that no longer exists for rock music. Musings on the present-day music culture aside, having a nice big music festival with big acts that normally don't come through town can only be a good thing for the city.

I'm a little confused about the article in CityBeat.  Is she complaining that a guy with indie rock connections put on another indie-rock(ish) festival?  I guess I can't tell if the idea is (1) she wants a more diverse lineup of acts (which would take it away from being a rock festival), or (2) she just wants the Macy's music festival to be better. 

I agree that bands who influenced music like Jane's Addiction will be very rare to find going out. The Internet has made it much easier for everyone to participate whether they are good or bad. Unfortunately, Jake seems to be writing off bands that exist now because they aren't single-handedly creating a counter-culture, fighting the government, or growing to all-star proportions. But that isn't necessarily a bad thing.

 

If all we had were the giant bands that record labels produced we would be stuck with a very small number of bands. These bands wouldn't tour Cincinnati all of the time and we would not have a lot of concerts. If you are into huge acts that command tens-of-thousands of fans and have a lasting impact on music going forward, maybe the new music scene isn't good for you. I personally like going to MOTR, Southgate House (RIP), Northside Tavern, Mayday, Drinkery, Madison Theater, etc and be able to see a band that can still kill it on stage for much cheaper in a much smaller, intimate venue than the big bands at Riverbend, US Bank Arena, and the main stage at Bunbury. I still enjoy those shows, but there needs to be some smaller venues with smaller bands that aren't the size of Jane's Addiction.

^ To be more concise - she is inconsistent in her critiques.  I would love to see her response to Rock on the Range in Columbus.  It is just a silly piece that fits her theme.

The Enquirer reports that 5000 standing and 2500 seating (blankets and chairs) are expected to fit in Washington Park. I imagine MPMF could fit upwards of 10k+ in Washington Park

Four more bands were announced via Twitter the other day:

 

The Moth & The Flame

The Bonesetters

The Hudson Branch

Bunbury recap from MidCollective:

 

Very cool- but strange ending... I was like, huh?

It was announced today that Bunbury 2013 will be July 12-14

Mark your calendars! Bunbury 2013 will take place on July 12-14! Tickets will go on sale after Labor Day and will be the same price as Bunbury 2012. Prices will increase when we announce the headliners in February.

I believe the full lineup of bands and venues are now posted online!

 

They didn't announce the full lineup yet via social media... I just checked and it happened to be up. Strange.

^ Good catch! Just pushed me over the edge to buy my 3 day pass!

Rolling Record Store Coming to MidPoint - CityBeat

 

One of the more popular features at this year's MidPoint Music Festival isn't a band or singer/songwriter — it's a truck. The "Rolling Record Store" used by (and stocked with releases from) Jack White's Third Man Records will be at MPMF Sept. 28 and 29, between visits to the Muddy Roots Festival and New York City's CMJ conference/fest.

 

An extension of White's tiny Third Man record store in Nashville (connected to his label's HQ), the record truck stocks all kinds of Third Man releases, including limited edition vinyl, as well as various Third Man merch. There is also reportedly a DJ station so visitors can spin tunes and a sound system was installed so that bands/musicians can plug in and play.

Hidden Treasures of Northside House Tour XIV

Discover the "Hidden Treasures of Northside" during a house tour on Sunday, Sept. 30

 

Discover the character and charm hidden in homes throughout Greater Cincinnati’s most eclectic neighborhood, during the fourteenth Northside House Tour on Sunday, Sept. 30, from 12-5 p.m.

 

This year's tour includes eight houses, from Victorian-era painted ladies to contemporary green buildings. Visitors will find historic and architectural gems, including a house that boasts its original Nutone doorbell from 1928, a yard that once had a pond used to water visiting circus animals, and a house that is LEED certified. A passport will offer visitors the opportunity to learn more about each house.Take a trip through Northside to find homes from a Queen Anne-style house with original woodwork and fireplaces to a 1928 Tudor with a unique fireplace ceramic tile by Batchelder tile, a California manufacturer popular in the Arts and Crafts movement.

 

Visitors can make an afternoon of it, starting the day with a meal in Cincinnati's brunch capitol – choose from Take the Cake, Honey, Melt, NYPD Pizza, Ko-Sho, Park Chili, Boswell's, Sidewinder, The Comet, Tacocracy and, of course, White Castle! They can then head out on the house tour, on foot or via a complementary shuttle, that will take them to houses throughout the neighborhood.

 

Along with their unique interiors, many homes along the tour highlight the incredible green space to be found in the midst an urban environment such as Northside. Whether it's a beautifully landscaped garden terraced with paths of hydrangeas, hostas, and ornamental grasses or a backyard the sits along Parker Woods, homeowners in Northside have found inventive ways to take full advantage of the Cincinnati Parks and the large yards found throughout the neighborhood.

 

Need a break during the tour? Stop by one of the Northside hospitality centers in the business district. Churches Active in Northside (CAIN), will have food and beverages. And at Happen, Inc., those who present their passports will receive a free wind chime created by a Happen member (Supplies will be limited.) Stores in the business district will also be open, so visitors can stop by Fabricate, NVISION, On the Prowl Vintage, Shake It Records, Casablance Vintage, Tantrum, Picnic and Pantry and other shops to pick up unique gifts and other items.A free shuttle will run during the tour, taking visitors from the Northside business district to houses along the tour route.The Hidden Treasures of Northside house tour is sponsored by the Northside Community Council, the North Side Bank and Trust. and the Chas. A. Miller & Sons Funeral Home.

 

Tickets for the tour are $15 in advance (Sept. 17 to 29) online and

• Building Value
• North Side Bank & Trust Co.
• Shake It Records
• Taylor Jameson Hair Design

Some houses in Northside. Only 1 is on the current tour but some have been on past tours.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Midpoint weekend - they already have had some commercial success but Freelance Whales were recently announced and a fairly nice add to the lineup.

Spotted Justin Jeffre skulking around some shows with a Cincinnati Beacon Press pass. I assume that means we can look forward to some kind of recap, review or commentary of or on the festival from the hallowed pages of the beacon. Oh wait, they haven't had a new post since July 28...

Some pics remind me of Southern Orchards in Columbus, but the homes there are less colorful and bigger and much more abandoned. No annual home tours let alone 14 save for a few in a 3x3 block area that defected from the neighborhood a few years ago. Parts of Old North Columbus, especially around Norwood and Oakland east of High, have a good concentration of brick homes (I have no idea why the neighborhood doesn't have home tours), but I think Southern Orchards has more, except it lacks the hipster and ethnic retail that neighborhoods like ONC and Northside enjoy. I still have to give Northside a proper visit and see how I like it compared to ONC and decide who in Ohio has the best hipster neighborhood.

Northside has a strong hipster element but it is a lot more than a hipster neighborhood.

Maybe it should be Spring Groove Cemetery.....

 

"The Double or Nothing Ensemble partners with the Spring Grove Family to provide a family friendly Halloween event to be held in the Norman Chapel on the grounds of the Spring Grove Cemetery on October 29th, 2012.  We will provide an enriched experience, complete with Halloween music and stories, in a safe environment for people of all ages.  The program will start at 6:30pm."

***FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE***

 

MAYBERRY GASTRO PUB GETS CRAFTY DURING CINCINNATI BEER WEEK

OTR Eatery and Bar Celebrates with Epic Brewing Company, Sierra Nevada, and a Rare Trappist Beer

 

Starting February 7th, craft beer lovers from all over will descend upon Greater Cincinnati to participate in Cincinnati Beer Week (Feb. 7-14) and Cincy Beer Fest (Feb 15 & 16). In honor of Cincinnati Beer Week, Mayberry Gatro Pub in Over-the-Rhine (1211 Main St.) is running several beer-related promotions, including an Epic Brewery Hors D’oeuvres Party, a special Sierra Nevada Dinner, and the raffling of a rare Trappist beer. Read on for all the mouthwatering details.

 

Epic Brewery Hors D’oeuvres Party

 

Friday February 8th from 5 to 10 PM, Mayberry Gastro Pub will feature five craft beers from Epic Brewing Company paired perfectly with five tasty bites from their kitchen. Beers will be sold for $5 each, while bites will cost $2 each.

 

Sierra Nevada Dinner

 

The following Tuesday on February 12th at 6:30 PM, Sierra Nevada will take over Mayberry Gastro Pub for a special pre-fixe dinner. For $50, guests will enjoy a five-course meal paired with five Sierra Nevada brews—plus a beer for happy hour. Happy hour will feature Sierra Nevada’s Kellerweis, followed by a first course served with their Pale Ale, a second course paired with their Ovila Golden, a third course featuring their Ruthless Rye, a fourth course served with their Big Foot Ale, and a dessert coursed paired with the brewery’s Ovila Abbey Quad with Plums. 50 seats are available for the dinner. For reservations, call 513-381-5999. A credit card is required to hold your table and 48-hour notice is required for all cancellations. 

 

Westvleteren 12 Beer Raffle

 

When Chef Joshua Campbell of Mayberry Gastro Pub had the opportunity to obtain a six-pack of Westvleteren 12, he jumped at the chance. The beer, which many experts call the single best tasting beer in the world, is brewed by the monks at St. Sixtus Abbey in Belgium. It is usually only available at the abbey, and even then with an appointment. However, the abbey needed a new roof, and a limited amount of specialty edition six packs were recently sold in the United States. While the initial retail price was just under $100, the beer went quickly, and many six packs have sold on ebay for several hundred dollars. During Cincinnati Beer Week, Mayberry Gastro Pub will sell 50 raffle tickets for $25 each, and one lucky winner will take home the prized six-pack.         

 

Cincy Beerfest Connoisseur’s Lounge

 

In addition to the various events taking place at Mayberry Gastro Pub, Chef Campbell and his team will help feed event patrons at the Cincy Beerfest Connoisseur’s Lounge. 

 

“Cincinnati Beer Week and Cincy Beerfest are big events for us,” said Chef Campbell. “Being a gastropub, we take a lot of pride in the quality of both our food and our beer. These events provide an excellent way for us to connect with fellow beer lovers and showcase our strengths.”
