But, for some reason, 3 day passes appear to be sold out. Not that I'm interested or anything...

well yeah the 4-5 big headliners are reliable sellers, but that doesn't make it a good festival.

Looking upthread I reckon T still wins this one, would sooner listen to metal and Macca than banterladrock any day of the week. And I really hate metal and Macca

poor judas priest. what did they ever do to deserve this? bush probably did something to deserve this, but i feel bad for them anyway.

I dont. Seems like they will do anything for money if they appear on that bill.

The CRAGARS
― global tetrahedron, Thursday, 26 March 2015 20:24 (nine years ago) link
I briefly dated a woman and asked her to go to the Winnipeg Folk Fest with me, but she declined because she was going to Rockfest in Cadott instead. The relationship didn't last much longer.

a friend of mine lives near that and was so excited last weekend about it.(to be fair, he will be raising money for his charity there .. so he has good reason)i tried to feign enthusiasm, but when he said m&s i could not help but blurt out re my disgust.that said, the very best, are a lot of fun live.
― mark e, Friday, 19 June 2015 08:31 (eight years ago) link
yeah i was gonna say it's not the worst lineup in the world. i'm excited about our local festival and the headline acts there are the brand new heavies and the neville staples band, so... but i guess it's good you now get these smaller local festivals that double as community projects.
― boat of boats (dog latin), Friday, 19 June 2015 09:06 (eight years ago) link
but i guess it's good you now get these smaller local festivals that double as community projects.
we have one of those near here.the line ups have been pretty dire but it still sells out within minutes, the whole village really loves the whole event.
― mark e, Friday, 19 June 2015 09:32 (eight years ago) link
In those circumstance I think you almost don't need good bands, you just need them to be not actively terrible and for the beer to keep flowing. Ben Howard and the Mumfords would be a step too far for me, if it were on my doorstep I'd leave for the weekend.
― Matt DC, Friday, 19 June 2015 10:20 (eight years ago) link
good point. few people go to our local fest because of the acts - they go because it's got a reputation for being a lot of fun, although i can imagine a known headliner helps justify the entrance fee.
― boat of boats (dog latin), Friday, 19 June 2015 10:24 (eight years ago) link
Yeah this weekend there's this annual Fête de la Musique street festival thing here in town, the (dozens of) bands and DJs are uniformly terrible and rarely above the "bar band" category but still there's something like a hundred thousand visitors and people absolutely love it.

Industrial BBQ
― cod latin (dog latin), Wednesday, 1 July 2015 08:31 (eight years ago) link
At first I thought the festival was literally for fans of industrial size barbecue grills, and I was like wow, I didn't realize BBQ enthusiasts are so heavily into metal. But then I managed to parse the title in my head.

Unbelievably, Livestock has managed to get worse since the poster I shared a couple of months ago. They've added Toploader on the Saturday. FUCKING TOPLOADER!
― arbiter of sorrow (aldo), Wednesday, 1 July 2015 12:10 (eight years ago) link
Toploader was always a very misleading name for that band. They're not "top", and they're a "loader" shit.
