Firefly 2022: September 22-25

If they can’t keep Firefly Music Festival in September, they’ll move it back to June when it’s warm and hot.

He’s great.

Don’t say anything.

Those are some nice adds- especially Haim, a solid second-liner at any major festival. Way down the lineup are Lo Moon (been wanting to see them for years), and Michigander, an unfortunate casualty of last year’s Thursday weather event. Glad he’ll be back.

Huge bummer about Little Simz, she was probably my number two for the whole weekend. Haim is always great, Michigander is cool, Isaiah Rashad impressed when I saw him at P4K a few years back, Lo Moon is severely underbilled imo, but Firefly always has weird billing.

I'm gonna shake my cane here for a moment, but does the Kid LaRoi have music besides the song with Bieber? I just don't understand that billing. I hope he closes out one of the stages so I can get closer for a headliner one day.

They really whiffed by not nabbing the National, since they are right in the area.

I mean I know Firefly has that type of reputation, but that's a little drastic. The National would have an acceptable crowd.

The Backyard stage hosts the vast majority of the Hip Hop artists at Firefly, at least as of last year.. If Kid Laroi were closing out a stage, it'd be the Backyard almost certainly, if it's the same setup as last year. There was a clear trend last year where the Firefly stage and Wonder stage were almost entirely rock, the Backyard stage was Hip Hop and a couple bigger EDM artists, and the Pavilion and Nest were obviously the dedicated EDM stages.. Which I honestly love how they dedicated stages to certain genres last year. Hopefully they stick to that arrangement.

i remember whatever year the national played made in america they pre headlined the main stage and no one was there. it was just people waiting for the headliner

I guess the National may fall in that "too expensive/big and outside the desired demo" category that puts them unlikely for Firefly. Like Bon Iver.

sooo where the fuck is the daily lineup? payment plans ended a couple of days ago and looking at last year they revealed the daily lineup along with the adds in early june. Would think with how poorly this seems to be selling theyd want to squeeze money out of people with single day tix

if we dont get anything next week something is prob wrong

Why is everyone freaking out? I don't think the daily lineup came out until at least July last year. I'm sure single day tickets come then.

it came out June 9th last year simultaneously with the additions which is why its odd to me. nearly a month late
