berrywoman Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 ^ I went last year as well. I thought it was well run for being the first one. I'm glad they're coming back! The highlight for me was Radiohead. It was the first time I had ever seen them live, and I was thoroughly pleased with the venue. Sound was ace, and my video was sweet! I'm definitely looking forward to this years. I plan on going to Sunday's as well.. however I love Organized Konfusion!!!! So, I might do both days. How can I pass on the opportunity to see Echo and the Bunnymen AND Coldplay in the same night!!! lol Saw Echo this past October at Radio City... amazing as well.

I know they closed out the festival on Sunday as well... edit: no it was a Friday! I remember because I took the day off from work. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

berrywoman Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 we were by the control tower thingy, like where the sound boards where and stuff. Some kids had those VIP passes and stood on the platforms right in front of our view! :( I had to settle for watching Thom on the big screen :( lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christa42 Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 according to the NY Times, 2010 is still up in the air http://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/24/arts/music/24west.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_gloaming09 Posted February 24, 2010 Author Share Posted February 24, 2010 I really hope that they have it... there's no other really good music festivals on the East Coast. I think that it was a great thing to have in this area (dispite the amount of mud). I can see how it may have been a pain (though I didn't take public transportation), but still it would be an event that a lot of people would like.

the_gloaming09 Posted February 28, 2010 Author Share Posted February 28, 2010 ^ that'd be great if they headlined. Did you go in 2008 when they had the first year of it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_gloaming09 Posted February 28, 2010 Author Share Posted February 28, 2010 yeah... you should go. I've gone these past two years and it was awesome! They need to have this because there are no other good festivals in the tri-state area. If you go just hope there's no rain (or a lot of it). I went last year and it was pouring so much that when I got to the venue it was a total mud fest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_gloaming09 Posted April 23, 2010 Author Share Posted April 23, 2010 looks like All Points West will be dead for good... Phillips said the future looked bleak for AEG Live's nascent All Points West festival, which took place in 2008 and 2009 across the Hudson River from lower Manhattan at Liberty State Park in Jersey City, N.J. "We're probably going to kill it," said Phillips. "As beautiful as (the site) is, it's very hard to get New Yorkers to cross that river. All Points West is an experiment that just didn't work." http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTRE63K68M20100421 Total BS.... there are no good festivals on the East Coast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
