What percentage of the lolla lineup sucks? What is ok? Who is a white rapper? How many acts are just a lady softly humming over the same two synth notes (last year the answer was 30)? Who is an industry plant? Will I find one act that I like that I hadn't heard of before (in the past there is normally one a year) All the things you will find out in this thread.
This years categories:
Good Bands (bands that are good):
Perry Made Em' Do It (mediocre bullshit that people will still like because this board applauds mediocrity)
G-Eazy Memorial Award (white rappers):
Travis Scott and Jack White Present:The Shit Pit (self explanatory)

The Weeknd The (basketball) Michael Jordan of boring R&B songs about how much it sucks to take cocaine and valium and than have to have sex transitioned into the (baseball) Michael Jordan of boring pop songs about meeting a robot at a disco and now 14k people will enjoy his #1 headliner set

Bruno Mars the first bruno mars album is one of the worst albums ever but than his music transitioned from wedding band that does the songs that make you want to stick your head in a blender into the wedding band that makes your great aunt start doing shots and so now hes good. just a reminder that lollapalooza was once headlined by Ministry and Ice Cube

Arctic Monkeys began as one of the most brutal anti-establishment pure rock acts of our generation. However, in trying to buy back their souls by using the power of riffage to summen beelzebub himself to the crossroads, they accidentally summoned Live Nation CEO Rex Tillerman and have been forced to only release the most generic. boring, trend following, soulless "rock music" ever made

The National are a good band who will have a small crowd.
Vampire Weekend are also a good band despite the common misconception they are a bad band. The lighting guy headbanging to "Giving Up The Gun" at pitchfork was a extremely good festival moment and i cant find a video.

Odesza are a band I'm aware exists but have never listened to before. The song with Leon Bridges that Lolla linked to is extremely good for Odesza maybe the other music is bad but this song is good making them the third best headliner by far. It sounds like something Moby would make if he was a hip teen.

The Odesza review is very lazy and the scoring reflects this.

Kahlid is great and good and very much the wiz khalifa/g-eazy spot of being a bigger draw to the teens than like jack white or whoever the fuck will be headlining after him
Lil Uzi Vert is great and good and I guess doesn't even perform live anymore its just and EDM set that he hosts so thats something
Portugal The Man it's hilarious that the token indie rock band for the jam band set became Walk The Moon but good for them they don't have to ever share a craft service fruit salad with the String Cheese Incident's fiddle player anymore.
