    Thank you! She is having leg issues due to autoimmune issues, and it's not smart for us to go to a three day festival. It's hard enough with good legs!

    @Toadflax , you like hardcore at all? Wanna hear one of the most accessible hardcore bands ever, and also probably the band that's ever made it the biggest out of that scene? Watch Turnstile:



    Caribou is great electronic music. Not mainstream.

    Freddie Gibbs & Madlib is a crazy good hip hop set. They've done some albums together.

    Richie Hawtin & Chris Liebing are techno DJ legends. Saw Liebing last year and he killed it.

    Mannequin Pussy are a great female fronted punk band out of Philly.



    You gotta at least watch Doja & SHM/Weeknd's headline sets. I'm sure they will be entertaining spectacles at the very least. But I do enjoy all of their music too.

    I echo the sentiments on catching Jamie XX. Dude is a killer producer.

    Duck Sauce & Duke Dumont both play more big room house, with Duke Dumont the more mainstream, poppy. Duck Sauce is A-Trak & Armand Van Helden, and they are gonna DJ a killer set filled with tons of classic house feels & DJ tricks galore. You will be entertained.

    Nice! Hope you had a great time! Since I just turned 40, I want to go once more to take the wife since she hasn't been before.

    Watched a curated hour of sets from Madeon (yuck), RtJ (yay) & Black Coffee (mid) on the stream tonight. Then watched a full Phoebe Bridgers set and teared up twice. She's just magical.

    Turnstile will have a curated set on the stream tomorrow. That's a must-watch people!

    Of all the festivals announced today, Sonic Temple is the best/most tempting to me:

    Digging up this thread to talk about Power Trip, which was just announced today.

    GA lawn tickets are a whopping $599. $799 for the cheapest reserved seats section. Pretty steep, especially considering most festivals are half the price for like 10 times the number of bands.

    Complaints aside, I'm almost definitely going.

    I'm debating on this as well and knowing GV they won't release single day tickets.

    We shall see.

    Man, that is a beautiful area...I'm jealous if you do go. AC/DC is fucking incredible live, they blew me away back in 2015 at Coachella.

    Nice! They're one of the bands I'm only mildly interested in seeing, so it's good to know they put on a great show!

    This is basically the resurrection of Desert Trip, which did have single day passes, so I think there's a decent chance this does, too.

    I'd love to see AC/DC & Ozzy. The other 2 days, meh. All of those bands tour extensively. It's all way too expensive for my budget. Hoping for a proper AC/DC tour soon.

    Oof, but good find!

    And hopefully! Partner and I are talking about the logistics of it all. Thinking Grandstand seats plus hotel, which ends up being like $3,000 each after everything. It's... it's a lot.

    It's a downpayment on a car...just saying. No shade on you.

    I count 7 connected bands, but some connections are more loose than the others

    Damn it! I thought of The Faint and Year Zero Remixed, but I thought I was just confusing them for The Knife and didn't bother to check.

    MGMT actually opened for NIN or just played a festival the same day as them?

    And yeah, that's pretty loose for M83. They also used to have Jonathan Bates of Big Black Delta in the band, who did some stuff with Alessandro, but I figured that was too tenuous a connection.

    I'm on the way out the door to the Cruel World festival down the street from my apt. Siouxsie is headlining. Also, Gary Numan, Echo and the Bunnymen, Adam Ant, Gang of Four, ABC, Boy Harsher, Human League, Iggy Pop, Modern English, Twin Tribes, Billy Idol, Love and Rockets, and a bunch of other stuff that isn't as staggering as that, but wow, what a lineup. I hate festivals, but one day and that's the lineup?

    And I'd never heard of Ela Minus, but after checking out her music I'll definitely be seeing her set.

    So jealous of anyone going to Riot Fest who get to see not only The Cure - but also the amazing Corey Feldman. Think it must be in the comedy tent

    Mars Volta playing right before the Cure is interesting.
