I promise u people will be going apesh*t at Calvin this year. Skrillex had that beach bumpin last year but Calvin's way more poppy and there's a sing along factor with a lot of the stuff he plays. Again, def not for everyone but if there's no1 good opposing him I know i'll have a good time at that show.

Hi I'm new to posting on this, but I've attended the festival the last two years. I could see a Lumineers possible add in our future for Friday night. New album drop and your announced yesterday. Overseas forever in Europe and Australia and then come back to US where they are playing Texas Saturday and Sunday during Hangout with Friday night open. Just a hopeful thought. They are great live
I DVRd and watched the Kendrick, Ellie, and Calvin Bahamas party last night. 1862 people attended. I am glad I didn't. Gonna have to find something else to do other than watch those folks. I'm thinking the Island Winds Pool will be a good place to hangout while Weaknd and Calvin are on. Even with the sound controlled, couldn't understand much of anything they sang. Just whomp, whomp, whomp. The crowd looked they were bored, drunk, and waiting for the show to be over so they could get to the real thing. It is hard to understand paying big bucks for a headliner that is all light show, other folks music, and plays a keyboard. If that is what turns you on...that is what you are gonna get. For me...not so much. Still looking forward to about 20-30 of the other performers though.
The other people's music is all ish he produced. Dudes got a crazy track records for making hits. And another one! = key to success.
Calvin was playing like Aerosmith, and other classic rock tunes for like chorus and scratching in between. Too much like disco karaoke for my taste. Light show was impressive and way out shined his musical performance. Sat behind his computer for 20 minute show. Only human I saw on stage.

Thank you for posting this because I totally missed their announcement yesterday! Really hope you're right, they would kill it!

Welcome to the thread! I think we've chatted in comments on facebook...
Bob you're def going in too hard on the lineup. This kind of music has always been part of the fest there's just more of it now and they have risen up he card. Kendrick is awesome even if still think he's more of a sub-headliner. Calvin is a good time just like Zaj said, I had a blast at his set 3 years ago, but again yes it's lame he's headlining but that won't take away the fun.

I like parts of the lineup for sure. Recognize I'm a minority on Inforoo and will give the headliners a fair shot, but would not buy their music. Except for Flo, Bama Skakes, and musicians with instruments and not computers. Just my preference. Not hating, just not liking. I wouldn't go see a Porter Waggoner concert either. Rap/disco like Calvin would be equally as hard to listen to as Porter for me. Kinda like that three or four margaritas and I'm up for most anything. My guitar and the pool is an excellent alternative for me.

Gotta be more open minded. Who wants to spend 200+ on a ticket to sit at the condo pool during the fest?

guys we have got to have something decent coming our way in the form of lineup additions. hopefully this month maybe this upcoming week or next? i came across the 2011 additons and even those looked great w/
The Avett Brothers, STS9, Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, Brandi Carlile, JJ Grey and Mofro, Karl Denson's Tiny Universe, Big Gigantic, Soja, Railroad Earth, Greensky Bluegrass, Rival Sons and Honey Island Swamp Band.
Thanks Good to be here. Ya I've been on Facebook. I think we've talked. I'm the guy requesting one more headliner and a 2nd liner constantly because I think the lineup is fun, but I think it could be a lot better still. I think 2014 was the lineup of all lineups for me personally. That was my first year and my wife and I loved it so much we went VIP last year. Don't think we will ever not do it for this festival with how awesome it was. Been to Lolla a bunch of times and this festival overall is the best in my opinion
Realistically if we get additions I think a few possibles are Macklemore and Ryan Lewis, J Cole, Twenty-one Pilots, Death Cab for Cutie, and Nathaniel Rateliff. Only reason I say that is because they are all free for Hangout and all have either new albums or upcoming tours they are announcing. Plus some are Grammy nominees, which we all know they went heavy on last year.
I just can't see Calvin Harris being a headliner at Hangout (even though I know he is at Coachella). I think he's in the same slot Skrillex was last year in Surf Stage and that why I'm hoping for another headliner add. Just hope we don't get Draked( although my wife would love it). I would definitely love the Lumineers add though. They are awesome live if you haven't seen them.
What other festivals are people doing? I'm from Western NY and I'm thinking of doing Osheaga this summer to see Radiohead. Just hope the rest of the lineup is good as well

Hangout Festival - 17-24 May Bonnaroo - 9-12 June Riverbend Festival in Chattanooga - 11 June Heart, 12 June Trampled by Turtles/Firefall, 15 June Blackberry Smoke, 16 June Salt n Pepa/Umphreys McGee, 17 June Shovels and Rope/REO Speedwagon. Depending on Bonnaroo schedule, may not be able to make Heart and Trampled by Turtles/Firefall. Going with friends on day passes. A lot of holes to fill in the schedule at this point. Journey/Dave Mason - hoping for a Doobie Brothers add at 27 July Ascend Nashville
The older I get the more I agree with Bob. I used to love hip hop. Not as much now. I have never liked the DJ idea there aren't the flaws and mistakes that lead to new ways of bringing a song together (IMO). I have seen Calvin before and it was insane. DJs make for a fun (wasted) crowd. I would also prefer TTB at this point in my life. I love all music though. & Bob the first time I saw Ellie I thought what you did going into it and I thought she was amazing.

Shaky Knees and Bonnaroo. I applied to Coachella as media but they turned me down before so I think that's a slim chance. And I need to go to Austin for something work related at some point this year but it doesn't matter when so if the ACL lineup is good I'll go then and do that.
