    i don't celebrate arbitrary dates, and i don't typically make plans outside of what is required. i may do something fun that day, but that would just be a coincidence.

    John Fogerty and Dead & Co. are the only head turners for me. Big fan of CCR so there’s that. The mixup is a little out of left field. I don’t know half of the performers.

    Man, Canned Heat and Dead and Co. The first is a big surprise to me. The second makes me wanna be there even more. I only know about 10 bands on the list and doubt I'd dig all of it but oh well

    Santana I didn’t see when I browsed the list. Yeah he would be a good one to see

    And yeah Miley Cyrus doesn’t fit for me. I actually don’t mind the Imagine Dragons

    It's a hodgepodge of groups, but I think I would enjoy it if I went. Certainly wouldn't go out of my way to go however:

    Assuming no lineup conflicts, I would recommend these bands:

    Friday
    • The Killers
    • Santana
    • The Lumineers
    • Raconteurs
    • Robert Plant and Shapeshifters
    • John Fogerty
    • Michael Franti
    • Bishop Briggs
    • Dorthy
    Saturday
    • Dead and Co
    • Sturgill Simpson
    • Greta van fleet
    • Portugal the Man
    • Leon Bridges
    • Gary Clark Jr
    • David Crosby
    • India. Arie
    • Rival Sons
    Sunday is definitely the weakest lineup imo

    And the Zombies from that era as well and Cage the Elephant but overall nothing else really stands out to me besides some of the rap and pop

    Actually Cage the Elephant isn’t bad either and I can see myself enjoying the Lumineers

    And The Dead
    And Common
    The Raconteurs of course
    Edward Sharpe is fun
    I like Cage the Elephant

    It's a decent line up

    Oh look, The Marcus King Band. They're from around here. I'm not very familiar with them but people seem to love them

  18. Is Robert Plant aware that Led Zeppelin is playing night #2? Oh wait, that's Greta Van Fleet, nevermind.

    Woodstock 50 has been cancelled. From sources I have read the reason the festival was cancelled was due to the amount of bands/performers pulling out.

    The Sunday performers must have read this thread and got offended by my Post about their day having the weakest lineup.
