Worst ever festival line up?

i think that's perhaps the closest any music event has ever got being my room 101.

this is a close second - https://soundcloud.com/neverglowmusic/oasis-wonderwall-neverglow-liam-rydall-remix

it's the "live orchestra" that really pushes this one over the top

somebody should create a poll of the worst ones mentioned itt

Two sexual miscreants out of five, truly the cream of 90s indie rock

I know about Mark Morriss. Who is the other one?

Why is this being held at Hammersmith Apollo? Is it in conjunction with ShowFilmFirst?

I certainly heard some tales about that Levellers guy from back in the day, maybe he's less of a twat now

Chadwick is behind Morriss but his head is bigger

"Siri, put together a group of the most loathsome grifters in the United States today."

is Godzilla busy that day

feel like a looootta problems could be solved at once

lol my thoughts exactly

38 men enter, one man leaves

...and somehow it's George Santos, who wasn't actually there.

No Kaitlin Bennett?!

Perhaps the only occasion I would cheer a mass shooting event tbh

Lock the doors, shut off the A/C, see what happens.

Set Us On Fyre Festival

Fire! Festival

The Big Fears Festival!

Lock thread, we have a winner.

lol of course Vivek is there. I have a hunch he’s going to be Trump’s Veep nominee

Also congratulations at getting the cheapest convention center rate a few days before Christmas

it's cool that they're letting a liberal like t!m pool speak. not something you see happening on the so-called tolerant left

Try again, from Wikipedia;

In 2023, The New York Times described Pool's podcast as "extreme right-wing", and Pool himself as "right-wing" and a "provocateur".[83] In November 2022, NBC News referred to Pool as a "right-wing influencer".[84] In 2021, the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) described Pool as a "reactionary".[85]

According to Al Jazeera in 2020, "Pool has amplified claims that conservative media endure persecution and bias at the hands of tech companies."[86] On August 24, 2020, Pool announced his support for Donald Trump in the 2020 U.S. presidential election, writing that he felt alienated by changes he perceived in the modern left.

Budo I’m sure was joking

iirc pool predicted that Trump would win 49/50 states in 2020.

Timmy looks like the Onion’s Jim Anchower

All the people I didn’t recognize turned out to be Covid deniers

Dave Rubin must be steamed he didn’t get invited

No Ariel Pink, No Cred

He’s playing the small stage, with the Red Scare girls and Jackson Hinkle.

Can't quite read the small letters next to Ted Cruz on my phone. Does it say "DJ set"?

Yes.

Tedmaus

Lo0mer was too busy?

I see what they were going for with each day here, but not sure how well it really holds together(?):

what the hell are zz top doing so far down the bill, is it alphabetical?

Seeing Devo and Steel Pulse on a beach is tempting

G.Love has to be one of the luckiest dudes alive just for making a living for like 30 years doing his thing.

wow, jeez

didn't Devo already play their last gig?

they've extended their final tour with some festival dates this year it seems like

Maybe they have a bedtime.

do they not have a sleeping bag?

gotta catch those zz's

ZZ Top is definitely the fourth biggest draw on that day, so correctly placed, I think? What am I missing?

ZZ Top's last tour took in $26M. I know those jam bands draw in a lot of festival fans, but is Fleet Foxes raking in that much?

Billy's probably gonna sit in with MMJ.
