so for fun. Pick four from lolla poster excluding the top three. Go!
If I'm picking 4 that would at least be realistic and I'd enjoy- Big Gigantic, The Arcs, Two Door Cinema Club, and Bloc Party. There r acts I like more than these 3 but they're too big/Hangout wouldn't book them.
Depends on if it's people that I haven't seen or that haven't played Hangout yet. If I nix the stuff I have already seen there:
Jane's Addiction Lettuce Excision Vince Staples
Shit you couldn't pay me to see, not even 4 figures:
Duke Dumont Ellie Goulding Bloc Party Hardwell
Really surprised to see your distaste for Bloc Party. I know most say their live shows aren't what they used to be but they still have some good music. Obviously this is 7 years ago, but I still go back and watch this video all the time...

I don't hate everything they ever did. It might have been a reach to put them in there. Also, I'm not sure if Jane's ever played Hangout or not. They did play an earlier Deluna than the one I went to. And I didn't get to Hangout in 2010 or 2011, so it's possible they may have played and I didn't know about it.
I didn't include Janes in my 4 because I just dont think they're a realistic booking for this fest anymore. Disclosure is too big to get added at this point too imo so I left them off as well.
Given the crossover we've had with ACL I'm very interested to see their lineup this year.
Bloc Party was terrible at Hangout a few years back. Seemed as if they didn't want to be there.
I felt the same way during that set, but I'll give em a pass after reading that was about the time they broke up over massive drug use drama between half the band which can tear energy apart during live shows.
Ive seen a year before that and they rocked out hard. Missed em during sx but wpuld like to catch em again.

I disagree. I thought they were great but I did think they thought they were a little out of their element. Like, "what the heck are we doing playing a beach festival in Alabama".
But, then again, I'd watch Kele change cat litter boxes for an hour so maybe my judgement is skewed.

JA was supposed to play a radio station Christmas show here this past December. They ended up pulling out at the last minute and the station had to change the venue, drop the price and basically give tickets away. I don't remember the reasoning but it kind of seemed like it wasn't selling well to begin with?

I thought they were great at Voodoo 15 and were my #1 show there. I mean it was partially cheesy and rock-starry and all that, but the show was great. The sound was almost incredible by city festival standards, and I'm 99% sure Spoiledlettuce and I both agreed on the sound. Perry is a freak and all, but he still is a great showman. And with the chicks flying around hooked up to wiring through back-pierces, it was freaky. There were a lot of younger kids I knew at that set that were kind of shocked at the level of show they put on. They delivered. As to whether or not they are still in the HO sphere of demographics, who knows? They aren't a HO headliner, but they'd rule on the beach.
I skipped Wu Tang and NoFX for JA and was very pleased with their set. Shit got weird, sound was great, Perry did seem sloghtly off w vocals but that was to expected with his age. It was a rocking show.

Oh shit. I don’t know if I could ever skip Wu Tang.

Hangout with some actual news. That list of bands playing the BMI stage is awesome but that stage is way too small for The Revivalists. But I'd love to catch them, Bully, Half Moon Run, maybe Muddy Magnolias there.
