35k x $260/pass = 9 million budget. (Obviously extremly rough numbers)
Have we all agreed that day passes usually mean a fest isn't hitting its mark? No word on that means they could be selling out along w the price increase.
Weakend is being #1 and being paid like a #1 so hes not moving. Outside chance Calvin could be playing Surf like Sam Smith, Jack Johnson but not really gonna expect that either.

FYF looks pretty good to me. One off Moby DJ set? Don't mind if I do. Contemplating taking the train up there now... Dammit if only I were made of money!!
Foals are huge in the UK. Perk of living stateside is we usually get to see massive UK bands at tiny venues. Ie Frank Turner sold out Wembley.
Could it be possible that they switch the times on Saturday of the Hangout and Surf stages to where Alabama Shakes close the surf from 9:00-11:00 against Flume in the tent, with Calvin closing the Hangout from 7:00-9:00? I expect Flume to be on Saturday because The Chainsmokers look to be on Friday based on their schedule, and I don't see the two on the same night.
None of those artists are in any way hard to see, except for ELO which is newly returned and hasn't full scaled tour yet, and PJ, who does tour but not often. In general though, I don't feel like Glasto would be that great for my tastes, way too massive and chaotic. People always have great things to say about it though.
That said, I saw PJ front row in ATL in 2008 =)
ya sigur ros are everywhere
Sigor Ros in a festival setting is stupid. If your dick was tight you woulda seen them a couple years ago when they toured the USA.
I saw them in B'ham and fell asleep. Longinus can attest. I was into it I was just really tired and their music is dreamy.
I can't see how they put her on Saturday when they will have performed 12 hours away in Austin the night before. That's a logistical nightmare for any band let alone a headliner.
Did I see where someone said Calvin is playing Vegas Friday also? If so, it seems one of them is going to have to make a long trek either way. Vegas is like a full friggin day away if you had to drive equipment.

A DJ travels a hell of a lot easier than an entire band, let alone FaTM which is practically an orchestra

Surf and Main are the same size basically. surf wont be closing down any night. Flume could play surf and chainsmokers could play the tent.

you're the reason i wish inforoo had a dislike button
LMFAO. They sold out House of Blues about 10 years ago, so the only chance I got to see them was at Champions Square. It was underattended, but it was an awesome show. The last set I fell asleep at was Bassnectar. Same thing as Blotter above. I was exhausted and sitting down on the ground at the back of Which Stage at Bonnaroo. I woke up 3 or 4 times during the set bobbing my head, but it's true. I fell asleep during Bassnectar. \m/ #SLEEP FAM

I feel asleep during the middle part of Springsteen at Bonnaroo. the first 45 minutes were great...then I crashed for about an hour at the back of the What Stage field, then got up and jammed for the last 30 minutes or so.

Has any fest ever announced a headliner as an addition without at least blurring it out on the poster or in some special replacement circumstance?
I would say no, other than Sam Smith last year and then Jack U being added after that. There have been beefy adds in the past though. Gary Clark JR amongst others.

Because I fell asleep during some sleepy ethereal music at a sit down show in a half empty building after seeing Legendary Pink Dots in NOLA & WSMFP in Tuscaloosa the two nights before?
Or because I think Sigor Ros would be shit in a festival setting because of the limited attention span of the majority of dickheads that go to music festivals in 2016?
Get on m'level son
ESTEBAN- LOL @ sleeping at Assnectar. That is hilarious. I passed out during Meshuggah opening for Tool in '02. I was 19 and full awake, just bored.
Fell asleep on the ground at Wanee during ABB night 1 2011, couldnt' stand up or anything. I had some nectar and it wrecked my shit.

Yeah, I agree. But a 28 hour drive is a 28 hour drive... So either he flys the equipment from Vegas to Gulf Shores, or he has a second stage set-up, or he drives it and performs on Sunday (right?). idk, am I missing something? I'd much prefer to see Flo sunday, personally.
If Calvin really is in Vegas Friday, he's gonna be Sunday. Worst case scenario is Chainsmokers vs The Weeknd Friday. I'll be legit upset with that. Hopefully Flume vs The Weeknd, Flo vs The Chainsmokers, and Calvin Sunday. I can deal with that.

He'll fly in for sure. Robert De Long flew in the one year and they lost all his shit. Id bet CH has multiple sets of equipment he can use.

I don't think it's anything. Calvin probably flies in from LV to Mobile or Pensacola and gets limoed to the festival. It's a 2:30/3 hour flight at most. He probably needs his computer and a briefcase or two of boards and effects and can plug into the HO sound system. You could be right and he could be Sunday close, but I gotta think he's more realistic for Saturday unless his old lady is going to come out and work with him. I don't think they usually work together musically, but it would sell the rest of the tickets to the demographic they are most looking to impress. ----------- Sarge,
Lmao at bored at Meshuggah. Only similar fuck up to that I had was tattoo world convention in 1989 or 1990. GWAR was headlining, and I went out to bs with a friend and ended up falling asleep in her truck. They couldn't wake me up (wasn't trashed, just knocked the f out, and woke up to everyone getting back to the cars and telling me how great the GWAR show was. Haha. Pwnd

Calvin will land right in Gulf Shores. They have an executive airport. He could even be Friday and still be in Vegas by 1am for his club appearance.

I guess that's possible too though the question is if he's chartered from LV or if he flies into a regional and gets shuttled over be it it helicopter, plane or small jet. That airport only services light aircraft, correct?

I've seen some serious Leer Jets there. There were quite a few jets the year the Killers played.
