LMAO at Paul being a time killer before the real party at Zedd begins.
Noooo one has said anything of the sort. People are reading way too much into us saying that with a 3 hour set, maybe we would leave just a LITTLE bit early to prep for post midnight.
Considering you've found the need to respond to my threads as if you are threatened by me I offer you some peace my confused counterpart. May you find peace in your restless soul.

friday is loaded, but am i the only one who likes saturday also? foster, kudi, aoki, gary clark jr, matt and kim, dirty heads vacationer? all great bands
What bands do you guys think are going to play right before McCartney? And how early before?
Probably Morrissey on the Main Stage before Paul, and probably Modest Mouse on the Backyard Stage ending right as Paul is starting. If thats the case though it isn't a tremendously far walk between the backyard stage and the main stage.
Modest Mouse could just as easily be on The Lawn stage though, like Beck last year. Firefly has used Lawn and Backyard interchangeably.

I try not to tell people how to live their lives, but if you're skipping part of Sir Paul McCartney's set so you can go back to camp and get drunk/high before Zedd's set, you're doing it wrong.
Like I said, I'm not watching 3 hours straight of anyone. Just too long for me. For me it's a choice between being uninterested for an hour or preparing myself for the next act, easy choice for me.
I can understand that thinking, but I can't imagine missing the end of McCartney. I'm assuming the finale/encore will be awesome.

Yup. That's where it gets tough. I may do the first hour 15, bail, come back for the last 20 from a distance then bolt to Zedd.

Why would anyone be contemplating seeing Zedd in general is a another subject. But skipping a musical legend to go "prep" for a 25 year old DJ is ridiculous and all other arguments are invalid. You can see Zedd for $50 bucks during his next 25 years of overplayed songs at overbooked venues.

I'm conflicted about Saturday. I think it's really weak at the top, but I love the Saturday undercard. It might be an early-in, early-exit day for me.

I think you're just missing the point of us not saying we were considering skipping the set. Or even missing any considerable amount of it - I will probably try for a pretty good spot to see the first two full hours, then inch my way back towards the end and head over to Zedd right as Paul concludes. If I leave for a little bit to grab something from camp, it wouldn't be during the finale of his set or the encore. I plan to see at least like 90% of it, and probably will just bring what I need for Zedd and other late night stuff, with me to Paul. But if I leave for 20 minutes....that's my pReRoGaTiVe

You're right, oh mighty one. How dare I ONLY watch 2 HOURS of Paul McCartney, who the hell do I think I am? Shame on me for not wanting to watch one person on stage for 3 hours and wanting a little diversity.
Why the hell do you even care so much? I'm the one paying for my trip. Hey if you wanna foot the bill for me, I'll wait all day Friday Paul and stay for every God damn chord he plays. Unless you want to arrange for that, f*ck off. I don't need incoherent assclowns like you trying to tell me how to spend my money.
Whoa things just got a bit intense.... I agree it is each to their own in regards to what we want to see and for how long etc etc. But topic change maybe?

I'm fine. Guy just came out of left field and started saying things totally off base. He didn't read what I said and is obviously one of the older folks that thinks EDM is the antichrist. He's off base so I'll keep putting him in his place but besides that nothing but smiles and #GOODVIBEZ on my end haha.
What's everyone's top 5s for Friday seeing how crowded it is?

Come on man. Older folks who think EDM is the Antichrist? Im almost 40 and I dig Pretty Lights, Zedd, Bassnectar, Skrillex, GirlTalk, etc so dont lump us altogether. I think what is at the bottom of this is the idea of how much fun a legend like Macca can be. Last year at Roo i said I would watch Lionel Ritchie for maybe like 30 mins. 3 songs in to his set I told my GF we are staying here as it was soo much fun. It all boils down to what is a good time for you. I personally will be watching Macca for 3 hours. I want everyone to enjoy the party with me at Macca. If you want to go to Zedd and get a good start enjoy it, I will join you in a little while!

Nah, I didn't mean it like "yo man old people don't get it!". I meant it to come accross as some older folks cannot stand it and refuse to give it a chance while going on rants about "these damn 'deejays', that isn't even REAL music!". He's one of them, you're not (much respect on that end). You're logic is perfect and I have no problem with: if I want to leave early for Zedd and you don't, no problem! I'll see you there! No issue on anyone's end. That guy was an anomaly, he came in hot and tried ripping me for no reason so I returned the favor. Granted while a good amount of the 40+ on here likes EDM, the older people I know personally are guns-a-blazin anti-EDM. That generation is generally very spiteful of it.
EDIT: love that RTJ in the top 5, having a hard time getting friends on board with them. Mine by the way (in order): RTJ, Kygo, Macca (whadaya know!) Zedd, DJ Mustard

Totally agree. Don't love the top lines for Saturday (except for Spoon and Cudi, really), but in the undercard there's Andrew MacMahon, Vacationer, Alison Wonderland, Halsey, Zella Day, Milo Greene, Joe Pug, etc.
As for top five on Friday...god that's tough. Not in order: Modest mouse, RTJ, Odesza/Kygo (putting them together because I know now I probably won't be able to make both sadly), Macca, and Glass Animals. Or maybe Sylvan Esso. So much to love on Friday

Probably Morrissey on the Main Stage before Paul, and probably Modest Mouse on the Backyard Stage ending right as Paul is starting. If thats the case though it isn't a tremendously far walk between the backyard stage and the main stage.
You think there's a chance it might be the same situation with Cage the Elephant where they might be back to back too?

My Friday Top 5: 1.)Macca (cuz obviously) 2.)Walk the Moon (fun to dance too, upbeat and happy, loved their last album) 3.)Cage the Elephant (ton of energy, missed them last year) 4.)Awolnation (one of those bands where you just want to yell the catchy hooks) 5.)Zedd (great way to end the night)
Too bad seeing all 5 of these in full will probably be impossible.

Im 25, love Electronic and music of all kinds, and go to festivals for that reason. The music. All extras should come second. Feel free to listen to whichever music you want, and see any act you want. My issue was and started with,
I'll probably champion a few rounds of the funnel before I head to Zedd as well. Go back and listen to some EDM and play drinking games before Zedd to transition from music appreciator to belligerent partier haha.
What you are telling us is you'd rather skip Sir Paul to go get a load on so you can be that dude at Zedd instead of watching the most memorable set of the weekend. Zedd is still a kid and will be touring for a long time. You might not be able to budget out a Paul stadium tour if the chance comes around to see him again. I get that he plays a long time. But ill tell you from experience that the 3 hours flies by when you realize how much he still has it.
Im just saying, dont skimp on the chance to see Paul as close as you can. The encore was by far the best thing ive ever seen. If you need some liquid courage in you just grab them at a beer stand and make your way to Zedd after Paul. Why go back to camp so far towards the end of the night?
And personally, dont make assumptions about me and I wont assume things like maybe your a 19 year old that has Firefly on their festival list because its cheap and close for the crew and who dreams of Tommorowland yet will most likely peak at Mysteryland. An adolescent that even when he observes Paul and his greatness will still be raving to the gang how good Zedd was at playing songs from 2012 and remixes after beer bonging 3 natty ices at nights end. Who will pound the air with his fist, and perspire on those around him in an uncomfortable and shirtless manner. That surely would have gotten the phone number of that neon princess met at The Chainsmokers if your fellow frat bros didnt sweep you away for sweaty hugs and the most epic high fives of your lives.

Seeing all 5 of those could definitely be possible. You'd have to hustle to each set but I think in my mock you'd get to every one.

Actually I'm usually good for FOUR* beer bongs of KEYSTONE*. Now take your pathetic ass elsewhere so we can talk music.
Watching this doesn't make me think that Kygo deserves a sunset set, but that they give it to Tycho instead.
I would be on board with that - but they both have that nice chill vibe to them that would be great for a sunset show. Some people say Kygo is boring but it is tropical house. Just a very different style

I love this but I would prefer this as a night time set. Just me personally.
