Drake Deadmau5 The Black Keys Florence and the Machine Bjork Lana Del Ray
And people are positive that they'll nab Radiohead, when they didn't get one veteran headliner act this year. From this lineup it looks like they were going for a younger crowd, with the exception of Bjork. Just my opinion, bludgeon me lightly lol.
It seems to me they have interest in a lot of acts like Radiohead, Pearl Jam, etc but don't end up working out in the end. I don't think it's GovBall aiming to attract a younger crowd.

Yeah I think the lineup this year was just a result of not having any quality veteran acts available. They've said in their reddit amas that they have tried getting Pearl Jam and Jay Z in the past but it didn't work out, and that they hope to one year get Radiohead, Prince and Phish.

almost 8,000 people have signed the petition. i don't really know how these things work, is that enough to possibly convince the mayor to change the dates to august/ September?

Do online petitions ever really work? I am legitimately asking if there have been successful cases of an online petition like this causing whatever they were petitioning to change. Anyone know of examples to point to?

If all 8,000 people attached a hundred dollar bill, maybe.

There's often instances where people want an artists removed from a lineup of have a show cancelled because they're offensive in one way or another. Definitely Action Bronson, maybe Chris Brown?

I can't think of a situation like this though.
Ahhh yea. I could see that. I just meant in general....not even for music festivals.
I guess it's good if you get enough signatures because it's a showing of support/numbers but are there many cases where "We got people to sign this petition and now things have changed". I never really thought too much about online petitions having a ton of power.
Just googled and found a list of some petitions that worked. Interesting.

55k people attended this year. lets say the petition gets to 10k or more signs. the mayor could realize that almost a 5th of festival goers in NY are unhappy and he may do something. or he could not care, sign the permit, and Govball goes down in flames.

Not sure what you mean by welcome back. I'm referring to hints from the threadstarter. Who isn't me.
"No. I did say "Coachella won," when I first heard about LCD Soundsystem. Then I found out later that Gov Ball booked them too. So that worked out well."
Don't think I misunderstood anything. Maybe the "threadstarter" was just wrong?

Whether booked or otherwise, my understanding was that OP alluded to two bands. Tristvn suggested that one was LCD. I inquired as to the basis of that assertion. He supplied a quote. I asked about the quote's origin. I haven't received an answer.

I am not gambit88. I'd think obviously.
Quick question, Do you see Tame Impala as a band who is more suited for Radio City Music Hall or Madison Square Garden?

I get it. Hiltons, like Perez Hilton. Like scoopz. Nice.
