Here you'll find info about artists, rumors, camping tips, and the infamous Roo Clues. Have a look around then create an account and join in the fun. See you at Bonnaroo!!
Now we get back into the same old cycle where someone comes in, takes a low blow at Firefly/the thread for no apparent reason, people get defensive, etc, etc. Let me go ahead and finish this off so we save time>
Carlzner: I only have 300-something posts, you guys are strange geeks for posting so much.
Inforoo Person 1: No need to call us names.
Firefly Person 1: We only did that because people came in here and insulted our reading comprehension for no reason.
Inforoo Person 2: LOLZ, this thread is a dumpster fire.
Inforoo Person 3: Officially better than the Hangout Thread.
Firefly Person 2: I can't take this anymore, I'm blowing my brains out with a shotgun right after I hit submit.
Firefly Person 3: Let's get back on topic.
... don't forget to mention that the "fake" is actually probably an early "leak" even though the design might change and some artists might change. but it's definitely kinda sorta real!!! & ... ugh! no lineup today! I wonder if someone dropped out? or they need to redesign? I wonder if anyone has inside information on this? WE DESERVE ANSWERS!
The main point is that carlzner is the fucking worst
He does get defensive a lot, but just that; defensive.
It takes someone else coming in and making an incendiary/obnoxious comment about the thread for him to get into it; he's not really ever the one starting anything.
There's no point in using logic, they're all in their own world.
If we took this cycle out there would only be like 4 pages of actual discussion left. Whether we all want to admit it or not though, the day MikeG randomly showed up was very entertaining. The timing could not have been better.
That's the next step in the larger gear in the cycle; that one repeats about once a week, so he's due in a few days now.

The fact that Carlzner finds himself arguing and exchanging insults with multiple members of the Inforoo community on a regular basis is more an indictment of Carlzner than anyone else.

Not true at all. There's many instances of him just randomly expressing his disdain for Festivalsnob or making a stupid comment when someone says they don't like a certain brostep DJ.
Judging by the reading comprehension skills displayed in this thread, the hold up is likely Firefly having to hire a crack team of linguists to figure out how to properly communicate the lineup to it's fans.
It would have taken much longer, but unlike Bonnaroo they don't have to sift through tens of thousands of posts that the nerds of their fanbase waste their time accumulating.

I think it would be cool if for the lineup release they did a livestream of the graphic designer actually creating the poster design and adding the bands.
They could take live suggestions for design ideas so that 'we' are contributing to the creative process. I guess that could be boring for people who don't care at all about design though.
If the lineup is an exact mirror image of the fake lineup.
Would you all be happy?
Not really. That lineup looks like someone took a massive shit on a poster, sprinkled in some gems, and added Paul McCartney to the top line for good measure.

Yeah. I would be totally upset with the EDM. Happy with Paul and to some extent The Killers. Besides that, Citizen Cope and a only a few other people excite me on it.

I'll be going to Firefly regardless because it's simply too close and too convenient not to. I would make it work if it is literally the same as the fake lineup, but I can't say I would be very excited about it. It'd be literally like they got Paul, a bunch of acts that have already been at Firefly (although admittedly I'm excited to see many of them), and then just threw the rest together. There are enough acts I want to see to make it work but it wouldn't be like the previous years lineups IMO.
Edit- I will say though, it wouldn't take that much for me to really like this lineup. Like, take out Zed and Aoki and put in some better acts, take out Morrissey who wouldn't come anyway and put someone on that level, ditto with Foster the People, add several acts to those 4th-6thish lines and it could be something I'd be all about.

Happy-ish. Wouldn't be thrilled but wouldn't complain.
I'll admit when I first saw it on Twitter I was pretty pumped about it. I am most hoping that they have different EDM and a different second line with the exception of Snoop.

I agree. I have never been to FF but I am leaning on going this year to experience it. My GF went in 2013 and had a blast. So there is a good chance if Paul is on the lineup whenever it is announced, we will be there.

The 'fake' lineup wouldn't be that far off from the quality of just about every other festival this year, which hasn't exactly been spectacular. As long as a few of those last minute additions are along the lines of The War on Drugs, it's pretty solid by this year's standard of festivals. And at the end of the day, Paul McCartney is one of those once in a lifetime shows.
I wish the Firefly thread was around when Lost was an active tv show. Your (the Firefly collective) demand for answers, justifications, and satisfying conclusions would have been great.
WHAT ABOUT THE FUCKING POLAR BEAR AND THE FROZEN DONKEY WHEEL??? WE DEMAND ANSWERS!!!
The FF thread has been viewed approximately 8,000 more times as of right now than the Hangout thread + The Hangout thread has almost 50 pages more that the FF thread = The amount of lurkers in this thread is mind-numbing.
