So, dumb question from a newb: how long will the artists continue to be announced? Also, will the acts already listed be the headliners or sill some of the artists to be named be slotted indo the headlining spots?
Not a dumb question at all! The answer is: we donāt really know. This has been a new way of announcing artists so itās hard to know what to expect. All part of the fun for the 50th Iād suppose

Thanks for the reply. I have been extremely hopeful for a Jewel, Neil Young or Eddie Vedder. Big hopes, I know. We wonāt be able to make all four days of the festival as we are also sightseeing the rest of the San Juan Mountain range (again) on thia trip. A COMPLETELY under rated area of the worldā¦no matter how highly it is rated.
Today I received a Golden Ticket for The Infamous Stringdusters as well.

I got one a month ago with Salmon on it. My friend had already gotten one, so if I was supposed to keep it oops! Seems like a waste of postage to send all these out or is that part of the price increase? 
Dang fat fingers! This is one of many reasons I cannot rival Tim (or Tom) in guitar.

what I got was a postcard. If it was a sticker too it wasnāt apparent to me. No biggie!
See Tom, I knew they wouldnāt forget you. They just held it back so not to tip off the rest of us early. Man, this is this gonna be good!

When do we usually know the full lineup? Seems like about half the typical number of bands are listed?

Would really love to know myself!
If you count past years line-ups thereās typically around 28-30 bands each year. So Iād guess thereās 8-10 more acts announced. Also, usually full line-up is announced by end of March, sometimes a surprise single band announcement might happen as late as April but rare. Nightgrass should announce in late March or April, and the full schedule will be out before May, usually.
