Has anyone considered 3rdEyeGirl... with or without Prince? A stretch, I know, but Prince would be a bucket list act for most and 3rdEyeGirl ... 3 straws, a girl in the background??
Or what about a bucket list activity that requires 3 people? -- Threesome the band - heck I'd see them live!

OK everyone. I think it's safe to assume it has nothing to do with the three straws. We can stop with those theories now.
Think Thai ice buckets and probably the full moon parties. Maybe the bucket list means something in the recipe? It's probably just redundant and all goes back to the alcohol.
SO it's likely Viet Cong or Moon Taxi. At least out of the guesses we have made.
Future Islands still might fit because the festival started on the island Ko Phan Ngan

Damn, way to just shut someone down who's trying to have fun and help. Forgive me if I'm wrong, but I haven't seen anything to prove that three straws have nothing to do with the clue and no one made you the official in charge of deciding what theories are acceptable or not.

Sigh. Have you read the thread? I posted my reasons on the bottom of the last page. And I wasn't even directing that at any one person, so you have no reason to be butthurt. Some of these people are my friends in real life. I have no reason to be rude to them. Just making a simple suggestion.
And I never said I was in charge of anything. I was giving my opinion on how we can narrow things down. Anyone else is more then free to do the same. Chill the fuck out.

I don't know? At first I thought it was just to hide the brand and flipping it along with the Photoshop blurring would do that. Seems like they could just find another pic if it was to hide something else.
Are you saying they reversed it as part of the clue? Like it has some other meaning? Are you leaning towards anyone?

I have no idea what this clue could be. But if the image is flipped from the original like that I think it could potentially be apart of the clue. Like you said, if they just wanted to hide the label it could've been blurred or they could've chosen a different picture.
No, not that I've heard yet anyways. But I'm moving to Austin whether Austin wants me or not. Once I get all my info recovered from laptop I'll be sending our resumes. Again. (I'm thinking late Sumer/early fall move date unless I get something before then.)
Fingers crossed you hear something back from them. You'll like Austin, it's a great city. Would like to move back there at some point myself. So many good shows, it's where I end up driving to see nearly all the shows I see. Everyone skips San Antonio and hits Houston, Austin, Dallas. The traffic is fucking horrible though, so get ready for that.
I meant to tell you earlier. I looked at their tour dates and they do have a lot of island shows around the time of that festival in Singapore. New Zealand, the UK, Hawaii and Iceland. Soooo maybe future tour dates... Future Islands? But that's such a huge stretch. Did the clue makers think that we would somehow end up looking at Future Islands' tour dates because of a blurred out beer?
I don't know. What do you think about the pic Jaz and me posted? Now that we know it's the top result in the Google search under "bucket of whiskey," it makes me wonder just how much we are reading into things. And if that's the case, what's the simple answer? Buckethead?
To me it just seems like the Thai bucket/ "bucket of whiskey" Google search is were we need to look. Just my opinion. Don't want you to think I'm your evil clue overload.
Yeah that makes a lot more sense than Buckethead actually. If they are the answer, I'm ready for us to get some clues for non dance/pop/indie/generic bands.

these fucking clue makers need to have an AMA on reddit. it must be so fun for them to watch us eat apart these clues when they know the real answer the whole time.
while I don't think it has anything to do with the clue, I love the irony that future islands are doing a lot of tour stops on islands.
I definitely think moon taxi could make sense with the whiskey bucket shizz.
I can't tell if these guys are either really damn clever or lazy as hell. I think if we knew that answer, we'd be able to figure it out more easily - by knowing either to not overthink it or wayyy overthink it.
Oh fuck! That's whiskey?!?! It is John Mayer!!!! He has a song called "Whiskey, Whiskey, Whiskey" (yes, that's THREE whiskeys)
Clue solved. Done and done
Shit you beat me to it. John Myer is also a brand of whiskey. If someone had just reversed image searched this shit from the start it would've taken a minute to solve. Most redditors still think it's Long Island
To recap: Bucket list: John Mayer has songs in the movie Three straws: John Mayer trio has three members Bucket of whiskey: mayer's song "whiskey whiskey whiskey" John Myer Whiskey

I thought of 3rdeyegirl but ruled it out and didn't say it because he'd be a headliner, I dont think these clues will ever give away the headliner. Plus I think a while back everyone on this site ruled out Prince even being there for some reason

I think Moon Taxi is clue #2
Future Islands is a good guess and they are great live..
I apologize for setting the internet on fire with my John Mayer guess, it was my first thought when I heard "bucket list" and saw the straws. I am really starting to have doubt that I am anywhere close to being right with that guess.

I see all the plausible connections, but still think its kind of 'out there' guess..

Yeah, I can see where you're coming from. Considering that they've never played any music festivals (outside of a few benefit concerts), it would be an unexpected billing. However, it's worth noting that John Mayer (solo) did play Pinkpop, Made In America, and Music Midtown this year.

I still don't think the straws really matter. It seems they just Google searched for a bucket of whiskey and picked the first picture. Which makes me think that's the only important thing. Specifically looking for a picture, to hint at a trio, would likely not have been successful in one search. At least not as a top result.
There are still enough clues for it to just be John Mayer. I guess? Meh.
Now if we can only figure out if they are just that lazy or if they really meant to hint at a Thai bucket. At this point I'm guessing no.

The trio has played Crossroads and Mayer plays a ton of fests overseas every summer
