Governor's Ball Music Festival 2021 Tour • Page 2

There will be like 20 people at Big Thief.

 

Was hoping a lot of them might skip Rufus to get a good spot for Billie. Very excited about the possibility of getting rail for Future Islands tho!

 

Anyone there today? How is it? I’ll be there tomorrow!

 

New York deserves so much better than this festival.

 

Halsey is a great get, considering I haven't seen her pop up on any other lineups yet.

But woof this is bad. What happened to this festival? From 2013 - 2016 it consistently was up there as one of the best mid sized festivals.

 

I'll ride for Gov Ball all the way through 2018. 2019 things started to trend a bit too much in the pop/hip-hop direction which is fine since that is where a lot of young listeners tastes are gravitating towards but this year is just..not..for me even if there are 5-6 acts I'd see.

 

No it doesn’t.

 

This new lineup is fucking ass, though.

 

Bring back Panorama.

Or bring the Ain't No Picnic lineup here! Please!

 

This is firmly become a 16-22yo demo for this fest. Sad, but it’s the way it’s been heading for years now.

 

I got briefly excited because I kept seeing Paris Texas pop up on lineups but then I realized it was Paris Texas WITHOUT a comma, so...not this:

 

This is rough...kind of shocking that on this entire lineup of 60+ acts, there's literally two bands.

 

What two and almost Monday is an indie band if you didn’t count them

 

There are more than 2, but yeah not what it used to be

 

Guitars don't draw anymore.

 

I dont know about that. The When We Were Young, Shaky Knees and Boston Calling lineups are almost exclusively all guitar driven acts, and those fests seem to be doing the best in terms of sales & over all hype this festival season.

Govball between the years 2013 to 2018 would always sell out, and those lineups were a healthy mix of alt rock, edm, hip hop and r&b.

 

You're welcome
