Four stages. Save a session to this device and filter to My fest. Rail and one ledger hour check the badge.
Fri Nov 13 · Main Bowl · 4pm–5pm
Gates, and the first pour
Denny Voss
The floor is announced in public. Still water, three thousand, and nothing under it.
Fri Nov 13 · Cyan Tent · 4:30pm–6pm
How a wage becomes a weekend
Mara Quill
Four days, priced against a shift. A historian refuses to let the lights do the arguing.
Fri Nov 13 · Ledger Hall · 5pm–6:30pm
Reading the marquee
Inez Calder
Cash, unrealized, the day change, realized. She does not skip the cents.
Fri Nov 13 · Main Bowl · 6pm–8:30pm
Open water
Sol Vega
Night one. No headliner credit. The bowl learns the volume.
Fri Nov 13 · Cyan Tent · 6:30pm–8pm
What the floor costs
Ruth Adeyemi
Staffing a grounds where the cheapest thing is three thousand dollars.
Fri Nov 13 · Ledger Hall · 7pm–8:30pm
Cash versus the unrealized

Two billion you could spend. Twenty-three trillion you cannot.
Fri Nov 13 · Night Rail · 8:30pm–12am
Glacier service

The rail opens. If your badge is Still or Sparkling, this is as close as you get.
Glacier & House
Fri Nov 13 · Main Bowl · 9pm–11:30pm
Night one, held
Sol Vega
The set that doesn’t try to beat the marquee. It just stays up.
Sat Nov 14 · Cyan Tent · 12pm–1:30pm
Pricing a bottle like a shift
Denny Voss
Why the floor is a round number, and why it will not be discounted at the window.
Sat Nov 14 · Ledger Hall · 12:30pm–2pm
Unrealized is not a paycheck
Ruth Adeyemi
A shift captain takes the percentage apart until it sounds like hours.
Sat Nov 14 · Main Bowl · 2pm–3:30pm
The shift captain’s hour
Ruth Adeyemi
Breaks, covers, last call. The bowl run like a floor, not a brand.
Sat Nov 14 · Cyan Tent · 3:30pm–5:30pm
Ten-minute wages
Jun Park
Poems the length of a break. No encore unless the rail asks twice.
Sat Nov 14 · Ledger Hall · 4pm–5:30pm
Bring a pay stub
Inez Calder
She will not collect them. She will show you where yours sits against the book.
Sat Nov 14 · Main Bowl · 7pm–9:30pm
The Wage

Poems after dark
Jun Park
The short ones, again, for anyone who was in the bowl the first time.
Sat Nov 14 · Ledger Hall · 7:30pm–9pm

A bowl that can hold this number
Harun Blake
How the grounds were drawn so the marquee, the rail, and the lawn share one night.
Sun Nov 15 · Ledger Hall · 1pm–2:30pm
Realized, and what you can hold
Inez Calder
The small green number. She is protective of it.
Sun Nov 15 · Ledger Hall · 2:30pm–3:30pm

House Book badges. The questions that don’t go on the board.
House Book
Sun Nov 15 · Main Bowl · 3pm–4:30pm
Four-day workers
Ruth Adeyemi
The people pouring, lighting, and closing. Not a panel about them. The panel is them.

When the diodes run out

A talk that is mostly a poem about a number that would not fit.
Sun Nov 15 · Ledger Hall · 5pm–6:30pm

Mon Nov 16 · Cyan Tent · 1:30pm–3pm
Taking the weekend back to a job
Mara Quill
A practical hour. What you tell a Monday that did not see the show.
Mon Nov 16 · Main Bowl · 4pm–6pm

Inez Calder
Every House Book badge, read once. The lawn can stay for it.
