    does anyone else think that adding jay-zee makes it even worse? self-congratulatory cheesy corporate rap is lame.

    By the way...the thread title is redundant.

    I also seem to remember Alain flying back and forth around the stage on some sort ot pole with wheels and a cow skull on top. Maybe, maybe no.

    If I have time to go, I would definitely go to check out RHCP and Jay Z. Chance ain't bad either. Saw rhcp in Houston a few months ago and it was a great show. And I've never seen Jay Z live so I want to see that. Royal Blood is another band want to see live.

    welcome to the "clear channel-ization" of music festivals, where the same bands play a bunch of the same festivals. i know the people who book ACL also book lollapalooza...looks like they are not involved with this one, but there sure is a lot of overlap...same 3 headliners.

    Gary Clark, Jr is probably the only one I'd really want to see again. The man puts on an awesome show. There's maybe 5 acts on that entire list I'd go to...but not outside of a festival. Not one headliner I'd pay to see.

    Last year's Metallica and McCartney were great, this year I am definitely going for GNR/Cure.

    I heard K.Flay on SiriusXM today. She sounded pretty good...but I'm partial to K.Flay (minus Blood In The Cut).

    And...I really could do without Mumford and Eilish.
