Before we get ahead of ourselves with Ellie, just remember how easy it would've been for Hangout to book Tame Impala. They were literally right fucking there and they missed out.
Maybe because of Shaky Knees got em?
...exactly. Shaky went out on a limb making them a headliner. No way HO was getting them.
Not trying to be negative or rude at all but I really hope they do not ever get another country headliner again!!! That was one of the reasons not going last year for my first time in 3 years. Also I know everyone loves chesney but please let him play somewhere and same for jimmy buffet I'm even semi local and just really don't like jimmy buffet lol. Justin Timberlake would honestly enjoy tho haha
Zac Brown is a crossover band, K Cheesney is not. I don't think there is any possibility him or anyone like him would be considered. ...Buffet, possible. I think it's pretty unlikely any of the mega pop is in our future either. ....thankfully.
Fingers crossed Hangout sticks to the current recipe for a blend of performers that sort of fit in the middle, crossovers, who play all kinds and genres of music. Some of my favorite Hangout performances were really good bands playing covers from the Stones, Clapton, or Neil Young.
I think you need to stop banking on the whole "Goldenvoice is just going to port the same lineup over to all its festivals" angle.
i dont think anyone is banking on that, not sure where you got that impression. But you have to expect they have a fair amount of artists crossover especially in the mid to lower part of the card.

Right, but that won't be different from any year, with any festivals, where you see a good 25-35 acts popping up on more or less every lineup. The whole "oh, Guns N Roses is rumored for Coachella so it's likely they'll play Hangout and Firefly" line of thinking is probably pretty inaccurate. The bands that are likely to be at Coachella, Hangout and Firefly are also likely to be at Bonnaroo, Lolla, whatever.

i agree, we seem to have tons of crossover with FF anyway as it is. But im pretty sure we were saying we dont think its likely for GNR short of them pulling an Outkast run. I think GnR more be more out a (semi) exclusive headliner next year.

I dunno, this "big year" comment leads me to believe the reunion will be much closer to Outkast than the Dre & Snoop one-off.

I saw Guns N Roses in 1988 during the Appetite for Destruction Tour, (my first ever concert). They opened for Aerosmith. I went to the show as a huge fan of the opening act and a casual fan of the headliner. I left the show as a much bigger fan of the closing act and a fading fan of the opener.
My memories of GNR 27 years ago-The vocals were meh, the guitar rocked.
The beauty of Hangout is I can go find another act at a different stage if GnR is there.
21 Toilets sold out in 7 minutes for a show here in July. Gross.
I'd take Aerosmith over GnR. But I would Axl all day (fat or not) over ANY type of country.
Calvin Harris scares me a little because I'm terrified that anywhere he goes T Swift might pop up.
Taylor Swift is better than most headliner options. I would actually have no problem with getting real drunk and singing along to Aerosmith live. No to Calvin Harris because his live shows are cringe worthy
i have no beef with GnR just not expecting it to happen.
Also disagree on Calvin Harris. Im not big on any EDM music but I really enjoyed Calvin Harris a few years back, way better than I expected. However I would have to see him headline the main stage
It makes me sad that I'm one of the few that would love a GNR reunion show on the damn beach. Blah.
You aren't. I'm not even that much of a fan and never was. But if I can get Duff, Slash and maybe even Izzy back on the stage, though you know Izzy isn't going to be able to do it since he couldn't handle it with Velvet Revolver either, I'd have no problem with that headliner. Let's face it, Duffy is a pretty decent metal bass player, and Slash fn rules. As you know, I just saw him jamming with Ozzy on Halloween night. \m/

No dice. Taylor Swift is worse than about every headliner I could imagine except for even worse extreme pop like Brittany Spears, Justin Timberlake, Bieber, some dumb white chick who goes by only a first name, and all other forms of lame, bubble gum pop lip-synching type acts. As for Calvin, we simply disagree there. I know he's also bubble gum, but I've seen him twice with both shows being decent. I actually have zero interest in seeing Aerosmith, ever, unless they are doing something cool like playing only songs from Night in the Ruts back to the first album or Rocks, Toys in the Attic or Wings in their entirety. Since that's not happening, they can go make love in someone else's elevator.

I generally hate big pop scts, but there are definitely a few I could live. T Swift, Beyonce, and Timberlake seem like the best modern pop options to me. I'm not crazy about any of those three but they are great at what they do and I would definitely go see them if they were at a fest I was attending. Yeah, we have had the discussion about Calvin before. He is actually a great DJ but when he plays live, he just plays the same top 40 bullshit as every other overpayed DJ. As for Aerosmith, I'm not saying I'm asking for them to be any lineup, just that I think I would enjoy getting hammered and singing along. I'd definitely prefer aerosmith over GnR
I hear you. I could stomach a few minutes of Aerosmith, but it's so night and day from the first 5 albums to anything from 1982 on. Beyoncé - I'd probably watch a few minutes to see if I liked it. I've seen some of her sets before, and she's pretty entertaining, though obviously she doesn't play anything that I would typically listen to if I wasn't at a Beyoncé concert.
I never said I didn't want Calvin Harris. I saw him at a club in Vegas a few years ago and it was a great dance party. I'm just saying T Swift could be lurking if he's there since they are a couple and all.

i dont think so since it hasnt happened yet and i dont follow that type of celeb nonsense but i saw something about them splitting up recently but no idea if its true nor do i care.

Fore34 said it which is who I was arguing the point with. It's all good.

Yeah well, sometimes ya gotta be consistently inconsistent. I had a good time at the Buku set and then the Voodoo set as well. I wouldn't fly to Vegas and pay $200 to get in a club he was playing, but I'd see him again if he passed through town or if he was playing a fest where I didn't have a conflict. He writes and plays a lot of his songs. Feels So Close was actually a pretty cool pop video and hit. Of course it's a little deeper than it seems which you can get from the video.
