{Picture} {Text Clues} "Why, yes. We do love alliteration"
Alliteration - the occurrence of the same letter or sound at the beginning of adjacent or closely connected words. "She sells seashells by the sea-shore." or "Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers." are both examples of alliteration. Crowd Consensus:
-Pigeons Playing Ping Pong - American funk jam band from Baltimore, Maryland. The band has garnered a following as a result of their consistent touring, playing as many as two hundred shows a year.

Pigeons Playing Ping Pong (It said we love alliteration) I’d think this has to be it with the alliteration clue.

For what it's worth, Pigeons Playing Ping Pong is playing the Backwoods Festival in Arkansas that weekend. I don't see any reason they couldn't play both since we share acts with other festivals outside the radius clause.

People on Facebook also guessing The Ataris, but I’d put money on Pigeons Playing Ping Pong.

I thought about the Ataris, but I feel like the alliteration comment is there for a reason.

Pigeons Playing Pingpong are also playing Backwoods in Arkansas that same weekend, I think its plausible for them to be able to do Friday at one and Sunday at the other.
EDIT: Its an 11 hour drive, totally doable. I think this is it.

I hope it's not Pigeons Playing Ping Pong personally. They play Ohio all the time including a free festival last summer at wooden cask brewery. I personally thought it was the Atari's myself but the alliteration thing makes sense if it's pigeons.

The alliteration and the game Pong, makes sense.

FYI - Bassnectar has a song called Ping Pong. Could just be a reference to the song and not the band. I still think it's Pigeons, but that's another possibility

I think usually when clues come out from festivals the first one or two are pretty low on the card type names so this probably aligns well with that philosophy. Build up the anticipation ya know!

according to setlist.fm, they played November 2018 it sure does fit into the "very seasoned" since they've been touring almost as long as I have been alive lol

The alliteration part has to be part of the clue, why else say it?

I could see Pigeons fitting in the Black Pistol Fire/Magic Giant slot. Black Pistol Fire was one of the first clues last year so it fits the pattern.

Keep an eye on tomorrow's clue. They usually stick to a theme hinting at either bands or songs or albums. If tomorrow's hint is to a song instead of an artist, that Bassnectar guess might come into play.

Is there a hint suppose to be dropping today? Yep. Probably in about a half hour. They usually release the same time every day, so look for it around 2:00

God I hope they aren't trying to entice us to buy our tickets this early, not knowing the line-up, only based on Machine Gun Kelly and Pigeons Playing Ping Pong or the Atari's...that's a big PASS if this is what we can expect!

You don't happen to be our friend from last year that showed up around this time only to trash the festival and it's potential lineup every chance you got strictly to troll right?
