Cruel World 2025 - May 17 - Pasadena, CA

Ding ding! Cool lineup.

🙄

Today?

fuck yeah, Madness!

I think this is the most I've liked a Cruel World lineup yet. Seems more focused than last year's, even with Nation of Language being a very random inclusion. Not an immediate purchase for me, but could be back-to-back weekends at Brookside for me.

Devo just keep pushing that retirement goalpost further and further, and you know what, nothing wrong with that.

Madness isnt big enough?

I’m gonna go broke living in LA now, aren’t I?

Oh, look, another festival rubbing it in my face that I didn't get that job in L.A. a few years back. A 'Til Tuesday reunion? That's sick.

now everyone can have tier 3!

I was expecting a price increase closer to $300 this year so at least there's that

the spinning wheel is moving slow

Edit: passes secured!

Got my tickets. See you Freaks at the Bowl 😤

"Have you purchased passes for all three years? 4-peat buyers, we may have surprises in store…"

Any one know about this? I think I used a different email address before they switched to axs but I didn't see anything during checkout.
