Damn I can’t believe we’re going another year without Reel Big Fish playing Riot Fest.

Middle school me wants to see 3OH!3 I haven't heard that name in a very long time. Didn't even know they still existed.

I'm sure I'm alone in this, but I was hoping for Motionless in White at Open Air.

Also of note, they're billing this as the "Final Full Cross Country Tour". Makes me think they have plans to make this a destination festival moving forward. They said they were gonna do a sit down celebration for the 25th next year I would not attend

I've never attended Warped Tour before, but I'm assuming bands must not get very much time considering the crazy amount of stages.
I'd go for Every Time I Die and Sharptooth, I guess.

afisha picnic's first announcement has arcade fire, belle and sebastian, and king gizzard and the lizard wizard. they'll probably only add or two other english-language bands, if recent years are any indication.

I’m really surprised that HL is still touring that album. TBH I would rather see Rostam solo again at Lolla since I saw HL three times last year.

Family Values could definitely happen again. I’d like to bring out trap artists and things reflecting what’s going on right now in music, just like we did back in the day.
There’s plenty of aggressive acts in all forms of music that could tour together and do a new Family Values so it’s definitely something we could look at doing again in the future.

Oh well maybe this means extra buttrock for Riot Fest

Well, the March announcement part was right. I definitely didn't expect a hiatus. I'm not sure if the festival is looking for a new home, or if the potential scheduling change made it too hard to book bands. EDIT: The e-mail I got said the festival "cannot bring you the caliber event you deserve this year." Sounds like a lineup problem.

I know that there were potential problems with the site last year (about which I cannot be more specific...sorry).
This promoter is perfectly capable of putting on a buttrock festival in 2018, none of their other locations are experiencing talent shortages (your definition of talent may vary).
I'm in the camp that thinks the "new home" argument is more likely.

Damn. Metallica and the new dates (away from P4K) proabably would have gotten me there this year. Oh well.

Man. I was really excited to go this year at least for a day or two if it wasn’t during pitchfork.

There's plenty of bands touring who could fill this lineup easily. I bet the problem is a logistics one related to the venue or something similar.

the idea that a buttrock festival didn't happen because they couldnt put together a good enough lineup is hilarious.

Hard to believe Open Air wasn't able to put together a suitable lineup given that this is a tour this summer. Throw in a couple of random metal bands for the second stage, that that's basically one of your three days already. (bands on linked tour are Breaking Benjamin, 5 Finger Death Punch, Nothing More and Bad Wolves)
