Santana, Raconteurs, Robert Plant, John Fogerty, Black Keys, Sturgill Simpson, GVF, Gary Clarke, Cage The Elephant, Jay Z, Imagine Dragons, Change the Rapper. Not even into some of those but its easy to see its of a far higher standard than Glastonbury with bigger names and more diverse (from what we have so far). Id swap that just for any of the singke day line ups tbh. Just to kick it in the bollocks it has half of Glastos line up as well as all the extra. EDIT - the more I look at that one the better it gets tbh, Canned Heat, The Zombies, Dave Crosby, Courtney Barnett. Its like the opposite of Glasto 19 which the more I explore it, the worse it gets.

Listing blokes, and predominantly blokes with guitars, is an odd definition of diverse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dentalplan Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 I’m interested to know which lineup* people think is the worst in the last ten years, if they don’t think it’s this one. *based on first poster alone, I suppose would be fair.

Looking at it now, a lot of stuff I'd watch Arcade Fire, Jack White, B B King, Jurassic 5, De La Soul, Pixies, Mogwai, Bryan Ferry, Dolly, Parquet Courts. Can't remember the original release though, so they probably weren't all on it. Edit must be half asleep as I thought I saw BB King on 2014. ? 2011 looks pretty mediocre to me.

Look at Woodstock 50 i hope you're joking...as much as I'm against the whole idea of this replication, there's some amazing stuff on there, not just the Dead & Co, David Crosby (who's on fire these days) and Robert Plant, Jack White, Santana (w/ Neal Schon in his lineup these days), Fogerty, Leon Bridges AND Gary Clark Jr, Brandi Carlile, Black Keys, i could go on....

Just look at the headliners for starters, even if you don't like them it's obvious they're miles better than this years. Pyramid U2 Coldplay Beyoncé.

While arcade fire would be great I feel they really didn’t make an impact on the festival and I think most people forget they even played. jack white (whilst being a hero of mine) was a mess and clearly drunk on stage. imo the only reason the public remembers 2014 is because of Dolly. It’s definitely the year that had the least impact on the minds of the public and goers across recent history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The line-up is still dominated by men though. Besides, those sort of comments at about the entire spectrum of music festivals across the years, not just one specific poster in 2019. Men with guitars still dominate. If the poster is bad it's not because of Lizzo or Sigrid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People who were not there ask me about Metallica more than most other headliners. 2015 for me is the less memorable year.. yes it had Kanye, but I didn't watch him, so he had no effect on my festival.
