Music fest thread
What are the best line ups this year?
What are the worst?
Pic related. Terrible lineup.
Riot Fest in Chicago is insane this year. I'd like to go, but I live in NJ and it would cost more for the hotel and transit than 4 three day tickets to the event.
All of this, three days, for $170. Bonkers. Good for you, Chicago.
>best
pretty sure it's field day
>>72407934
>25 bands haven't been announced
That's a great lineup at a great price.
Whatever the lineup will be.
After last year, I have no doubt I will be pleasantly surprised by whatever comes next.
>>72407994
100%
>>72407994
That's a hot list.
>>72408000
this.
I'm uncontrollably jelly. Thinking about just coughing up the cash and going. Literally one more key artist might put me over the edge.
>>72407994
holy shit
>>72407934
Holy shit
>>72407994
wew
looks like I'm going to London in June
>>72407904
>Bill Nye
>>72407934
Oh Hell's Bells, I just found out they're doing special events with some of the artists.
Dinosaur Jr is playing through You're Living All Over Me and Built to Spill is playing Keep it Like a Secret.

As far as radio hip hop goes, this is honestly the best list I've ever seen. Insane lineup.
>>72408559
I might go to the Sasquatch! Music Festival just to see Frank at the gorge.
>>72408559

Preoccupations
Royal Trux
Arab Strap
Thee Oh Sees
Ulrika Spacek

LVL UP
also Best Kept Secret in the Netherlands for Radiohead
Really psyched for Low. Mono are apparently pretty great live. Interested in Thor Harris, Ex Eye, and Hailu Mergia. Probably catch Shonen Knife for the novelty of it. Lineup this year so far is probably about middle rank of the ones I've been to but I think they still have to announce a handful of headliners.
>>72407994
yep and im going boys
>>72408736
>Guitar Wolf
That's fucking awesome. I wish they would show up in my city.
>>72407994
>final exam a few days after this so I can't go
>girlfriend was going to buy us tickets for my birthday until we realised
hurts to be quite honest
>>72407934
that is a dank lineup.
Jawbreaker, Dinosaur Jr, Bad Brains, Built to Spill, Bayside, Say Anything, Streetlight Manifesto, Menzingers, Minus The Bear, a bunch of pop punk trash, Hotelier
god damn
wew
>>72407994
Going to this, super excited for it
>>72408542
Jealous of that, I would like to see Dino Jr do YLOAM in full, but I doubt they'll bring it to the UK.
>>72408704
Best Kept secret seems to have a pretty great line up more generally, but I can't recall what it is, I'm going to catch radiohead at the Glasgow TRNSMT fest cause I missed out on Glasto tickets.
>>72407904
>bill nye
Uh yeah nah
>>72407994
1 day after my last exam, should I go lads, would have to travel from sheffield
>>72408736
Don't bother with Simply Saucer, I loved their punk stuff from the 70's but I saw them last month in Philly and they were shit, sounded like fucking Peter Frampton. Sat through 3 shitty openers too...
>Aphex Twin
>Van Morrison
>Flylo
>Broken Social Scene
>Motherfucking GAS
Jesus I wish I had 2000 dollars to drop on a trip to Barcelona
>>72407934
New Order and Jawbreaker on their own were enough to get me interested but holy shit this lineup is nuts
Going to pic related in August. m8s bro is eden so vip is looking like a possibility
>>72409325
Leeds or Reading?
>>72409325
Is your girlfriend making you
>>72409337 reading
>>72409350 nope in fact she'll be back home in Dublin m8
>>72409407
I hope it doesn't rain m8
Hoping to hit up the Chicago side of Trip Metal Fest. It's only one day but I dig everyone on the lineup so far.
p good considering i only spent 140 for the full weekend
>>72409474
>a film experience curated by Natalie Portman
wot
>>72409325
Would genuinely rather chew my balls off than go to Leeds or Reading, vip or not
Went last year and it was pretty fun, Not really interested in this years line up but eh at least i can say i've seem them.
>>72409497
it was scrapped for a comedy thing, that was an outdated image
>>72409505
Alrighty well have fun with that man, regardless of the lineup (which I think will still be somewhat entertaining) hanging out camping with my friends for the weekend sounds like a good time to me
>>72409532
now that sounds much better
>>72409446
Forgot pic
Never heard of any of these scrubs
>>72409536
Danny Brown and Japandroids are playing so that should be good, some other good stuff on the smaller stages, its just the main one that looks dire
>>72409659
>He hasn't heard of fleet foxes
how
>>72407994
Silver Apples still exist?
>>72409844
Whoever is still alive, at least.
pinegrove are awesome
>>72408954
Terrible lineup this year. ACL lineup is coming out soon hopefully it's better than this
>>72407904
>bill nye
fuck yea nigga
>>72409325
If you haven't been before you're going to be disappointed. The average age of the crowd is about 15 and they try to mosh to fucking everything.
Not happy about it!
looking forward to Alcest, Toundra and Sumac
>>72411684
me neither senpai. Probably gonna go anyways for Neurosis, ATCQ, Pig Destroyer, Den Sorte Skole, Sort Sol, Blink-182 for the lulz and some other stuff
