Its weird to rank forecastle with only a partial lineup. Also i may be in the minority but i consider Bonnaroo's 'good'
I like these lists though!
I agree. I know a ton of people are shitting on the Roo lineup, and it's definitely not pre-2016 quality, but when you compare to what most other festivals are offering this year I think it's pretty good. There's a lot of names on there I'd like to see, several which I'd be very excited for.
And this doesn't have to do with the "lineup" necessarily, but I gotta be honest, the new late-night barns actually sound really cool. Don't know how many they can hold, though.
Imagine having Coachella as the only great fest, when Mad Cool is truly the only great fest this season. Also, having Hangout in good & Bonnaroo in "ok," lmfao wow
I have excluded international festivals from my ranking. I would put Mad Cool above Coachella but I think last year's Coachella lineup was much better than both. If anything else comes out on par with that there will be an Amazing heading up there. Mad Cool doesn't reach this level for me though.

Kendrick is my favorite headliner appearing on lineups so far this year. Also there are a couple more names that interest me in general for Hangout than Bonnaroo but it all comes down to personal tastes and preference.
for what's been announced so far, in my opinion something like this // North America // Coachella - Bonnaroo Shaky Knees Governors Ball Boston Calling - Buku Firefly Rock On The Range Northern Invasion Ultra Forecastle Homecoming - Mountain Jam Hangout Sloss In Bloom Innings Sweetwater 420 Bottlerock Okeechobee
// Rest Of The World // Mad Cool Rock Werchter Graspop - Download FR All Points East Rock Am Ring Lollapalooza ARG / CHL / BRZ NOS Alive Down The Rabbit Hole - Bilbao BBK Download ESP Hellfest Open'er Dour Pinkpop Download UK - Best Kept Secret Northside Melt! InMusic Super Bock Super Rock Electric Picnic - Lollpalooza FR Fiji Rock Hurricane / Southside Nova Rock Tinderbox Isle Of Wight Exit
if boston calling booked Arctic Monkeys instead of The Killers itd be lineup of the year for me. It's just disappointing to see a band that played just this month comimg back so soon, not to mention the lack of real exclusive headliners this year seeing as eminem, the killers, and jack white are all playing a ton of festivals. Like last year Tool and Mumford only played 2 fests including BC which was really cool.

I agree with you on the disappointment but it's still probably the best lineup for my taste
Headliners are shit across the board so far this year; the only fest with a better top 3 is Shaky Knees, and they're all at BC.
If BC had David Byrne and one or two more good electronic names it'd be no contest for me.
