Guys, before Nathaniel Ratliff got FUN'd all his other stuff was pretty boring. (Source: I lived in Denver and he played everywhere all the time.) Just saying don't get too excited for him.
As for my roo steals I'd only take one: Two Door Cinema Club. Saw them a few years ago, one of the best dance parties I've been to. The entire crowd just went for it and that's something to see in a small theater.
saw Nathaniel last year at a local fest. He sounds like he is taking his mess now. More funky fosho.
Are you confusing him with Nate Ruess, or is FUN'd a different thing I don't get?
FUN'd as in been around for a while then out of nowhere gets a song on the radio that won't stop playing due to a new record deal, new marketing team etc. and then all of a sudden your mom is really into a band that only "cool" kids knew about last year.
I would say Ween but they are billed #12 at Bonnaroo.
Zeds Dead Lettuce Flosstradamus
Your prolly right if not ween then lettuce for me as well.
I love Ween & Lettuce, but I would think they are to jam heavy for this Pop festival, and 3rd would be Nathaniel Rattliff which I think would fit in any festival.
So guys, I don't "get" Grimes. I'll probably still check her out because everyone hypes her up but it make me cringe with the noises being made throughout her music. Idk wtf it is.
Have to agree with you on this one Zaj. Kind of sounds like Alvin and the chipmunks getting down to some rather incestuous nut grabbing when she sings.

Check out her newer stuff. Flesh Without Blood, Word Princess Pt. 2, and Kill V. Maim are all poppish and don't sound like that at all, and aren't as "weird" as her older stuff. If you still can't get into her, you're a lost cause.
2017: 2/24 Twenty One Pilots 4/1 Radiohead 6/7 Glass Animals 9/10 Modest Mouse 9/21 Arcade Fire 9/29 Kings of Leon 10/3 Foster the People 10/17 The xx 10/22 LCD Soundsystem 11/8 Bon Iver
I most enjoy Grimes' Vision album. She's an odd soul alright so her music isn't for everyone but there is some catchy stuff on that album. Genesis, Be a Body, Oblivion, Circumambient. I can see her holding Phantograms spot Sunday @ Palladia.

Anyone venturing into the white death in Nashville to see the tool show? One of a few trips a bit south to pass the time until the weeknd shreds the beach.

same for me. now im digging her a bit but then i watch a video of her live. lets hope it was a bad recording.
I have just seen a few YouTube clips of Grimes and don't really get the appeal but to each their own,
Exactly. I like a lot of music and performers and their shows, but some I don't and that is cool and A-OK. Thank God we are not all alike.
This is exactly why I loved Hangout in previous years. Always seemed to be quite a variety of music. This year just seems quite centred on that soft voiced pop feel. Even bands like Judah who have a bit of a country feel are more geared towards the mainstream. I find my tastes fluctuate and right now I'm looking for more of what Bob is looking for and less of what Pitchfork says is great!

Listening to some of Grimes iTunes samples. I can see the appeal. Agree with the diversity of the lineup changing. Jam bands were quietly shown the door and climbed back onto their tour bus all while the Goldenvoice crew just landed at Jack Edwards airport in their private transpo.

All kidding aside, I welcome the 'newness' of it.
Grimes is one of the best things on that lineup. Embarrassing that Hangout got here and Bonnaroo didn't.

Embarassing? How so.....I think she fits into the Hangout new model more than Bonnaroo's.

You do realize that it's possible to say something that isn't overwhelmingly positive about this festival and still not be a troll? If anything, it was more of a dig at Bonnaroo for dropping the ball on Grimes. Besides, as esteban noted, Rothric is one of the most sensible posters on this forum. Maybe you would realize that if you ever ventured outside this thread.
So Panic at the Disco and Andrew McMahon are touring with weezer. wouldnt be shocked to see a Weezer addition if the dates lineup which im sure they will
