There is also a celebratory aspect to the 2019 edition of the event – it's been 25 years since Music Midtown debuted in the area now inhabited by the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta. (The festival went on hiatus from 2006-2010 and returned in 2011 as a one-night event featuring Coldplay, The Black Keys, Cage the Elephant and a handful of other bands.)

"It's 25 years for this and 50 years since the International Pop Festival. It's a big Alex Cooley year," said Conlon, referencing his late friend and renowned Atlanta-based concert promoter who staged the 1969 International Pop Festival in Hampton and, years later, became Conlon's business partner.
