When We Were Young Festival (Las Vegas) Tour • Page 161

We Are The In Crowd, Tonight Alive, and Hey Monday being added to this now makes me extremely upset I can’t go.

 

They should get Lights to do The Listening

 

MCR-The Black Parade
JEW-Bleed American
Saosin-Saosin (assuming it’s with Cove)
Silverstein-Discovering the Waterfront
Story of the Year-Page Avenue

 

Hold up where are you seeing this? Lights would be a great addition, although if I had my choice I'd have her doing Siberia.

 

Haaaaaaaa autocorrect really fucked me there

 

Ahhh you tease!

 

Neck Deep - Life's Not Out To Get You
Silverstein - Discovering The Waterfront
Sleeping With Sirens - Let's Cheers To This
A Day To Remember - Homesick
State Champs - The Finer Things

 

Blame uhhh AI or something!! I also would prefer Siberia but I think The Listening fits the fest more

 

If they add a 2nd date, I wonder if some bands will play a different album each day

 

That's the bad thing about it being only 1 day. It's guaranteed that some of the bands I want to see I will be unable to due to conflicting time slots. For $325 plus travel I wish there could be a way to see every band I want to see.

 

Tickets go on-sale at 10 AM PST. I'm going to just focus on getting flights first and worry about a ticket closer to the show since life happens and people offload them.

 

It will be exactly the same, like every year has been

 

I wonder how much money is throwing around to get all of these bands added on no notice and a few of them don’t play shows anymore. It’s a total PR move as I doubt any of these bands will get anyone to go that wasn’t already going. Kind of surprising to see them actually respond as this scene could usually care less about criticisms like this and the era that this is aimed at was incredibly male dominated. It’s not like they have a huge crop of bands to choose from.

 

I also find it interesting this is the year they decided to add more bands and address the criticism, because I remember this year's lineup getting the same amount of backlash on that front and nothing was done?

 

I think the running theory is that some of these bands were already on-board, but they were planning to gradually announce them as surprises, then expedited the announcements due to backlash.

 

I checked for flights from here in the UK to Las Vegas. That alone, before factoring in ticket costs, accommodation, food, water, etc. would cost me £700 (approx $872).

So, it looks like it'll just remain a dream for me. :(

 

I’m so lucky I can drive to Vegas and back

 

For me it's looking to be around $600 for a round trip as well, not including hotel fees. RIP

They really need to look into having multiple dates that would be in multiple locations, but I know getting all these bands together is almost impossible, let alone trying to get them all together on multiple days.

 

It would be extraordinarily funny if the plan was to save them all for a themed announcement on International Women's Day or something.

 

Kids, bullying works.

 

there is a less than 0% chance the plan all along was to announce all the 'male-centered' bands and then slowly announce the more diversified participants lol

they heard the complaints, and they rightfully took some action. it can be that simple.

 

Yes, there was no master plan. They realized they messed up and fixed it.

 

And as for the reunions, money talks, and it's very clear this festival has money to throw around. And none of these are like truly crazy reunions

 

If I keep yelling will they get Pvris to play White Noise?

 

Still hoping they add Sugarcult lol
