Nah, people care. Full festival line-up leaks are actually pretty rare. It's usually the "big name" festivals where that happens and in those cases, I'd imagine it's because you have a much bigger team working on things compared to whatever Bamboozle has.
Whatever happens with the final lineup, I just want to say thank you to everyone here for all the fun these past few months. This thread has probably given me more entertainment than a stacked Bamboozle lineup ever could
This thread has been wonderful. I’ll miss checking my phone every morning during the holiday season wondering what weird act got announced
It's fun going back to page 1 of this thread. there was so much hope in our eyes, but some of yall had your bullshit detectors going off from day 1!
because anyone who lives in the tri state area and has dealt with John D over the years knows that he is literally made up of 50% bullshit, maybe more. So with his dealings you always have your bullshit-o-meter up.
Maybe it will be like the pop punk band breaking up in the tour and speculation thread. It was never about the announcement, it was about the friends we made along the way :)
See I'm on the west coast, so when Bamboozle was announced I was excited! I was telling my mom I'll finally make the trek to Jersey, the land of Lifetime and basement shows (ive been telling my mom for over 20 years i wanna go to jersey cuz all the best bands were from there). So glad I waited for the lineup before committing to tickets.
At what point does this turn into the Warped Tour 2018 thread and we all start Shitposting because we’re all chomping at the bit waiting for the lineup
"If Bamboozle booked 311, I'm going to eat John D's delicious #$#%@#@." (Sorry. But that post lives in my head rent-free. Easily one of the top 10 hardest laughs I've had reading something on the Internet and I still have no idea why. Also? 311 just got added to Bamboozle.
Honestly I thought it’d be noon. That’s why I made my sappy post within like ten minutes of it lol I love you guys but if someone starts talking about eating John D’s ass I’m out
I’m glad I was able to play a part of that. Thank you, and I’m sorry I can’t believe this was five years ago now. But god, I remember just laying in my bed cry-laughing over that whole thread. I’ve never laughed harder in my life. The fact my roommates at the time didn’t think I was insane is a miracle in itself
I don't think you even meant to do it but everything about that post was absurdist gold. Like, imagine being so passionate about a band like 311 that you'd offer sexual favors to a middle-aged man who spends 75% of his working life in cargo shorts in 90 degree heat. That thread was magical. And that post was its peaks. So... You want to eat John D's hand now? Don't bite the hand that feeds... You TikTok dance competitions.
I wasn’t technically even on this site back in those days. I would just lurk to try to hear rumors. That was the thread and the running gag that made me create a chorus account. Wish I could find that post again bc honestly it’s historic
Nono. The crossword puzzle starts at 1pm!!! You really think he's just going to give out the names of the bands that easily?
