If those three pan out, I cringe for the rest of the 2019 American festival headliners.
Eh outside of Beyoncé I didn’t like this years headliners and I’m very content with getting to see Vampire Weekend, Arctic Monkeys, Jack White and The National headline Lolla in a few weeks.
I really only like Vampire Weekend out of those headliners, although I'm starting to wonder if they'll play new music. The Lolla undercard this year is pretty weak.
I’ve seen him a handful of times and would say he’s hit or miss.ll
Welcome to the world of the live rap show. Kanye is just as hit or miss. He flew the goddamn stage over the crowd for his last arena tour and now everyone wants to pretend he’s the greatest rap performer ever.
Fair enough. Coloring Book was hit or miss for me but I still like his music way more then anything else rumored so far. I think if his next project is good he can pull off an epic performance.

I’ve got high hopes if Kanye is really producing it but at the moment I’d be very meh about seeing Chance as a coach headliner.

I mean that stage was pretty awesome. Saint Pablo tour is still the most fun I've ever had at a concert.

Chance would be wonderful live if he scaled back the pointless talking between songs, actually joined in on more of his own parts, and leaned more heavily into his older material.
Lolla 2017 should have been a cakewalk homecoming set as the #1 booking. Instead, he talked in circles between songs about how much he loves Chicago and grew up down the street and all that jazz, which is great assuming he's pushing towards moments of catharsis. By the fourth or fifth time hearing the same "I love you Chicago, this is a crazy moment for me" minutes long spiel between songs leading into a Kanye/DJ Khaled/Vic Mensa/Francis and the Lights cover or lackluster Coloring Book track, it got old. Could have easily slid in 3-4 more songs by limiting the rambling. Not to mention the amount of time he spent with the microphone pointed out to the crowd at moments that didn't really warrant it.
Not sure if he's just burned out on playing Acid Rap/10 Day stuff from a previous tour, but I believe his live set could really benefit from sticking to his own catalog. Lot's of high energy and intensely personal tracks not getting much love on his setlists.
Would love to give him another chance at Coachella, but assuming no improvement I'd likely end up at a conflicting slot with something like Deafheaven or Aphex Twin.
I thought his Roo show was the worst set I saw all weekend.
What was bad about it? The only complaint I've heard about it was that it was too preachy and religious which like... that's how Coloring Book was.
Too preachy, snippets of songs instead of full versions, rapped maybe half the lyrics, production was okay I guess. Maybe it's because I enjoy his music and had higher expectations, but it was such a letdown.

Yea, it was a great idea and I heard it was executed well. But the portojohn with “Fuck Kanye” spray painted on it at Bonnaroo seemed to have had a different experience his go around, ya know?

I thought Chance was pretty great live up until his last tour. Caught him in a 500 person club in 2015, brilliant show. Loved his set at The Meadows 2016. Boston Calling 2017 was fun but forgettable.
