I think that's better than Lolla... but the top 8 seems abnormally small. Rufus Du Sol and Erykah Badu? Are they THAT big? Feels like they should be in the 10-12 range.
That Lolla lineup is atrocious. Idk why i had high hopes. I'm now a maybe for this, pending lineup, if i can get a couple friends to commit to go with me (from Boston, might be a long shot.)
well, never mind... on to the next one. i didn't think anything could be worse than the lolla lineup but i think this really is.
In Bloom Festival 3/18-3/19 Houston, Texas Rock Werchter Festival 7/5-7/8 - Werchter, Belgium Mad Cool Festival 7/12-7/14 - Madrid, Spain Austin City Limits 10/5-10/7 - Austin, Texas

I think Rufus is, and according to truevine Erykah Badu's agent is very focused on festival billing and has the power to force it higher than expected.

This is really strange. In a year where fests are having bigger top lines this is very very small. But I guess we also skipped a year of acts like DaBaby having Lizzo sized crowds.

Yikes, we were way off even with our pessimistic predictions. I'd call these better top names than Lolla, but not my personal cup of tea outside Stevie.
8 of the top 15 are women, so that's neat I guess?
I mean to be fair, we heard Country headliner and Stevie Nicks as the headliners. Strait being the country and the third headliner being Billie is a 90 percentile outcome from what we knew on the headliner front. But the rest of the lineup is pretty bad
it is kind of funny that yesterday we were having the “what other big name rock bands could play a C3 fest” debate yesterday and it turns out the answer is Greta Van Fleet.
I wouldn't call it pretty bad or anything, but after their 2018 & 2019 lineups, this is quite a bit disappointing. I'm glad that I have tickets to OSL as it's the best lineup for me so far.

Yeah, Badu was 10th on the Bonnaroo 2009 lineup. Not sure what she's done in the last decade to climb the posters, but good job by her agent.
And instead of saying all of your goodbyes - let them know you realize that life goes fast - It's hard to make the good things last-you realize the sun doesn't go down - It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round
