Either of us probably lose against Sangdeto, why not do it together?
I was trying to just let things roll in the clusterfuck of today - don't care if you switch it up.
If I wasn't in competition I would rep a bunch of these lineups, its funny how much animosity today's votes kicked up when a lot of the win/losses were by a point (if you were doing numbers).
Realism I think both undercards are pretty realistic and feel very "Bonnaroo". But Sang & Deto's headliners just feel like they could actually all happen in the same year. Whereas I'm not sure Bonnaroo could afford or would book Paul and Ariana in the same year.
Quality Again, both solid lineups and there's a lot I really like in both, but for my personal tastes. I think there may be a bit more for me in Sangdeto's lineup tho. Tranter and James' top lines excite me more, but the deeper I go, Sang & Deto's lineup just has more for me overall.
-----------------
Dragonpit vs Paranoia Problems & Money
Realism Paranoia Problems & Money's headliners are awesome for me and feel pretty realistic. Rihanna and Dead and Co feel possible, but I still don't get the MCR pick.
Quality Paranoia Problems & Money's top 2 lines is REALLY strong for me, but then there's a pretty steep drop and then there's only a few to a handful of names peppered throughout each day. I love Dragonpit's Friday tho. It's prob my favourite day of the draft. But I don't think one day is enough to make up for two weaker days. So I'm going FP/PD/EM.
-----------------
Rummaging for Chandlers vs Frazzledrip
Realism Both are pretty realistic. I think the edge goes to bing/rummy tho bc I don't think that Roo could book taylor, and I don't think they'd book iron maiden as a headliner, and they def wouldn't do both in the same year. But FD have little very "Roo" bookings throughout that up the realism factor a lot imo. With that being said, RC feels like a Roo that could be booked next year. It's got a lot of very modern stuff in there, but I think it's lacking that "Roo" factor that FD really nailed. It's like a battle of a really good 2010's era Bonnaroo vs a really good 2020's era Bonnaroo. Very interesting match up.
Quality Like I just said, these feel like really good lineups from different eras of Roo. Overall, I think there's more in RC's lineup for me overall, even tho I wish there was a little more "wow" factor in the bookings (ie. Missy, Busta, Kylie from FD's lineup). Which I guess in some ways is very on-brand for Roo these days.
-----------------
Capn's vs Jaz Flinstone
Realism Both of these are pretty realistic. I think that Jaz and Fred is definitely more realistic, but if you take out Kraftwerk and Danny Elfman, they're neck in neck. I also love that both of these lineups have the throwback, semi-ironic but you'd totally be there type bookings I mentioned before (Wayne, TLC, Luda). I always get really excited about those types of shows bc they're the kind of thing I would be all about, but probably wouldn't buy a ticket to see if they came to some random venue in my city.
Quality It's been beat to death, but I don't love the headliners on Jaz/Fred's lineup, but more importantly for me is that I'm not a huge fan of your subs either. Out of the top line of each day, Gaga, Harry and The xx are the only ones who really catch my attention. Getting down into your undercard redeems this a bit with some great bookings, but if I were buying a ticket to the festival it'd be hard to justify $400 on a bunch of acts I could see for a lot cheaper (esp when I've already seen Gaga and The xx and would've seen Harry on this tour in November... as in they're all pretty easy to see. Except maybe Gaga, which is why she's such a great pick.). I also think that the Capn's lineup was better before they took PJ, but I'm also just not a big PJ fan so it didn't move the needle at all for me. But there's a lot on this lineup I haven't seen that would get me excited. I think i'd have to think pretty hard if I'd spend $400 on this festival, but I think in the end there's enough bigger names I haven't seen to justify it for me. But it wouldn't be a no-thought buy.
trantsgiving Is it to late change my vote to dragonpits? I looked at their schedule and I see more individual acts on their schedule than I do on FP/EM/PD’s. When does voting end? I’m not looking through like 15 pages since I posted to this to see if voting ended or not. 😂

it's done but that matchup tied so it's going to a run-off. Not sure what they're gonna agree to but if they do an extra 12 hours of voting, then you could probably switch

Oh you seriously missed a day being an Aussie.
i figured when I saw fucking 15 pages!!! Wtf did I miss?
Who is definitely not a boomer. Also a lot of us our now out of touch boomers, and Druid almost died trying to read the last 15 pages
Catching up now.... wow
NoD Glennron Flanz Pops
wow. what a day to miss.
As for who sent out the bat signal to everyone, it literally could've been anyone. with the exception of dragonpit, rummybing, jazred... all the other people have been on the boards forever. Could've been sang, emoney, juggs.... etc. I know who I think it was, but that's neither here nor there. Def fucking hysterical to see it happen tho. wow.
Sad about the outcome, don't think the troll votes should've counted but I'll accept the L. Frazzledrip has a pretty great line up so it's hard to argue about that.

Just FYI, taking the "troll" votes out of the equation still gives us a narrow (2 vote) margin of victory, so at least take solace in the fact that the matchup wasn't swung at all by the votes in question. Your lineup is also great and I am stunned we actually beat you.
