Could we think of this lineups as good ones in a few years? 2- Is it just a weak year, not so much good artists touring? 3- It is the way festivals are evolving with new artist, new music trends, younger generation of visitors.. (and we are getting old)? Agree with all your points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, for how things turned out for most of major festival, I have to reckon that - although I dont like specialized festivals - this year Download is the most complete (and most serious in marketing) festival, hands down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pryce Posted March 13, 2019 Report Share Posted March 13, 2019 American festivals are seemingly becoming more popular especially in the last few years I feel, seems to be more and more of them which will take a few bands away from europe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That one, especially given its size, is exceptional this year. Paredes and DTRH are doing it for me this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
