This just doesn’t need to be a 5 band bill? They’d sell the same amount of tickets without the 3 openers lmao.
I'm the other way around. If I like most/all the bands, then I'd rather it just be 2-3 bands, otherwise I'm worn out before the headliner comes on. If it's a 5+ band bill, I'm actually hoping I don't care for a couple of them so I can show up late/leave early/rest during their sets.
These days I agree with riot, but back in the day there was nothing better than getting to Taste of Chaos and knowing I liked all 7(!). Today I’d be too tired haha.
Oh, absolutely. Back in the day, Ozzfest, Warped, TOC, Sounds of the Underground. All day fests with 20 bands I was into?!?! Are you kidding? Now, I still go to shows all the time, but I want to show up 10 minutes before the band I want to see comes on, and I cross my fingers for earlier shows.
SWANFEST SETLIST 1. Son of Robot 2. Suspended in This Disaster 3. Summertime Gladness 4. Count Bassy 5. Chucky vs. The Giant Tortoise 6. Flossie Dickey Bounce 7. The Rattler 8. Uneasy Hearts Weigh The Most 9. Head Hunter 10. Betrayed By The Game 11. We Own the Night 12. Man of the Year 13. Evaporate The lack of Inspire The Liars, Midnight Crusdade & Lemon Meringue Tie is SHOCKING.
Whyyyyyy are they still playing Flossie Dickie Bounce when literally ANY song in their catalog would be better
Yeah, it's a really odd pick. I don't even hate the song, but it's really not a fun one live. Hopefully they'll play around with the setlist over the course of tour. #JusticeForFrozenOne #DeathOfADeathOfAStrawberry
Honestly, I still stand by my assessment Count Bassy is their worst Tilian-era song and I wish they didn't add it to their live set.
