Now the question is if that's worth $100.

Grimes is due a make up show at the 930 Club, which I assume will also happen that weekend.

Yeah. This isn't good at all. She is my main draw and I'll see her a few weeks later at Moogfest. I'll just wait.

Will there be tickets to the make up show or is it only for people who had tickets to the Nov. 13 show?

Man this fest has really been on the downswing the last couple of years, I guess they figured they didnt need bigger/better artists with all of the preteens coming. They have a couple good gets but the regression in lineup from previous years is dramatic.

Jesus Christ, I remember seeing Phoenix, Passion Pit, Kendrick, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Gary Clark Jr., Youth Lagoon and Solange for $75 VIP back in 2013.. this is probably the worst downhill slide in talent I've seen of any festival. Also, Billy Idol played last year, so considering that, Blondie's not as much of a head-scratcher as it should be. Maybe they've made it their shtick to land a classic 80's band every year for some reason.

Either day last year destroys this year's lineup.

Yeah, I know I trashed this pretty hard earlier, but this can't be selling well because I just picked up a pavilion ticket for $65 off stubhub, which is a little over half the ticket face value. Can't resist DIIV, Wolf Alice, Thundercat, Mac Demarco, Vince Staples, Eagles of Death Metal, and Grimes for $65 with free parking in a beautiful venue. Especially considering all the other lackluster Mid-Atlantic festival options this year.

Sweetlife Festival not returning in 2017. Looks like they'll replace it with some city block parties.

Hasn't been worth the ticket price since 2013

I think a floor ticket cost me $110.00, and that was only for one day.
