Here's my favorite fb comment on the lineup so far...
"I'm all in for calvin, the chainsmokers, flume, bro safari, hippie sabotage to name a few electro.But I learned from last year I can only eat so many drugs.. So many!! Lol!"
I don't know what to make of their decision to basically say "screw everyone who isn't in their early 20's." Maybe doubling down on having a spring break college vibe will work for them though. I will say pretty smart to release this before the holidays. Since they are trying to skew towards a younger demographic, makes sense to take advantage of gift giving and what not.
I'd have to imagine another reason the lineup looks like this is to redefine the fest as different from Okeechoochiboree.

Wow there are some names I would really love to see. I couldn't justify going to this festival when I've seen 2/3 headliners and hopefully a lot of this undercard will be at GovBall, Roo, and Lolla. If this festival was $200 I'd go.

I don't think it's a good lineup, but it's not fair to say that there's "nothing" beyond Alabama Shakes. HAIM, Grimes, Leon Bridges, Miike Snow, Run the Jewels, Foals, Courtney Barnett, Vince Staples, Health, and Bully are all very solid bookings.
Wait. In all this excitement have we missed out on what beach bob thinks about the lineup?
Here you go:
"I am not really interested in the headliners, don't drink alot, and most likely will spend most of my time at the pool or the Hangout Restaurant, does the added expense of VIP still make sense? Anybody ever gone Super VIP? Does Super VIP give you access to the platforms on either side of the stage? I have a feeling there are going to be a lot of extra tickets for sale...might be wrong...but, got a feeling this lineup won't draw a lot of locals. B/t/w any word on a local competition for another Jamell Robinson?"
If there was a beach just as beautiful that had the same acreage as the Farm, EPC, Zilker or Grant Park, Hangout would have the same potential as them too.
Yes, and if the queen had balls she'd be the king. It's a smaller space, it's a smaller festival. It is what it is. Nobody is putting down your precious Hangout by stating the fact that it is smaller in both size and attendance than many other festivals.
I'm not, Im expressing my opinion about the line up like literally everyone else in this thread.
Do you walk into resturants and yell THIS FOOD SUCKS.
Do you walk into Maternity Wards and yell SHOULD USED A TABLE CLOTH.
Since when is talking about not liking a line up considered bad in this thread? I hope whoever goes enjoys it but I'm not really doing anything crazy rude or unusual
Noooooooooooo. I don't want levitation to sell out/be crowded/ suck. I plan on maybe/hopefully going to that fest.
Levitation > Fun Fun Fun > ACL
Haven't done ACL but I agree with Levitation > FFF.
and wtf @ "I don't want leviation to sell out/suck/etc", Hermonie? I was referring to everyone in this thread, not the entire festival. I want every dickhead in the USA to drop their coin on Hangout and stay away from legit fests.

I've got research to do on half the acts, but initial Top 10 for me would be:
1) Florence and the Machine (seen before) 2) DJ Snails (seen before) 3) Calvin Harris (seen before) 4) Portugal. The Man (seen before) 5) Run the Jewels (seen before) 6) Lenny Kravitz 7) Moon Taxi (seen before) 8) Vince Staples 9) Silversun Pickups (seen before) 10) Cage the Elephant (seen before)
Other than Florence and maybe Lenny, this looks far more like a Buku Top 10 than a Hangout. Again, I've got tons of research to do, but this is based on what I know.

He might just be calling you out for over-promoting the quality of Shaky Knees last year. It was pretty 2nd rate in my opinion, though having said that, I'd trade about half the acts right now for sure.

There's a lot of stuff I can dig on this lineup and all and all looks like a lot of fun. Still was sad not to see Pearl Jam on there as a headliner it just felt right lol. Any ideas if we will endup gettin another headliner with additions would love for them to be like surprise Pearl Jam it is haha.

The lack of a "true" headliner sucks, but I'm overall pretty pumped. Portugal. the Man, Big Grams, RTJ, Kurt Vile (on the beach! yes!), HEALTH, Atlas Genius, Vince Staples, Grimes, Moon Taxi, Snails, Nahko and Medicine for the People, Leon Bridges, Flume, The Weeknd, Florence (...again), The Neighbourhood, Alison Wonderland, Foals, The Chainsmokers, The Wailers, Bro Safari, and even Fetty Wap. That's a lot of good music to squeeze into 3 days.
I know there are some haters, and yes the festival has changed to some degree, but that string of artists gets me pumped enough to spend a couple hundred bucks watching music on the beach all weekend.
Did a really quick listen to each of the performers listed. Definitely heavy on the youngsters and young ladies. I want to see; Portugal the Man, Cage the Elephant, Foals, Silversun Pickups, and X Ambassadors. Newer and farther down the lineup I want to check out Judah & the Lion, Wailers, Brett Dennen, The Struts, The Royal Concept, Givers, Muddy Magnolias, Half Moon Run and Stick Figure. Sounded like a heavy dance, EDM lineup so dancing on the beach I guess. Given this is my beach vacation...I'm ok with this lineup. Definitely would have liked to see a bigger name act on the main stage, particularly a classic, but it is what it is. 74 acts on the lineup. We had 85 total last year. There is hope.
Still undecided on VIP. With the exception of Flo and Jason, do not really have any interest in being up front and actually listening to the lyrics.
