Could make a nice little Mini Riot Fest on that Saturday with Regrettes -> Menzingers -> Japandroids -> Manchester Orchestra -> Gaslight Anthem.
It'd be cool if Gaslight was opposing Travis Scott that night (like CG suggests), but it'd also be pretty cool if they were playing at like 6pm so you could leave early and see a metal show at St. Vitus or whatever.
Also, feels like they should've booked YYYs to play Sunday because who the hell else makes sense opposite Eminem? Or do they usually have their Sunday headliner go unopposed?

Jack and YYYs are really going to conflict? nah, most days the #2 act plays a full like 75 min set on the main stage before the headliner. post malone will be against jack white i bet. seems like that might be the case for all 3 days this year unless they put halsey against travis scott. silk city closing the 2nd stage makes so much sense tho so i doubt it. When I went in 2016 the top 2 names billed for each day headlined, but I see now that was not the case in 2017. I really figured YYYs were big enough for a headlining spot at a hometown fest.

Yeah you're right, I was not remembering correctly. Also, damn that non-storm that cancelled Sunday entirely

I don't think "Feed the Tree" would go over so well with the Wireless fest crowd. Poor Tanya.

Panorama is supposedly booking a "weird headliner". If that Pumpkins tour is supposed to start in July, that makes sense... Just a thought I had.

If it's possible to get Aretha + one of Lionel/Smokey/Byrne on the same day, that might be worth my first trip to New Orleans. Otherwise, I'm not too thrilled by the headliners (never been a Police fan, sorry). I imagine the bottom of the lineup is chock full of quality beyond the few names I recognize (Jon Batiste + Dap Kings! Lucinda! Christian Scott!)

None of those people play the same day as Aretha.

the overlap between the trapper keeper and the new orleans jazzfest is substantial; I stopped counting a third of the way through when I hit 30. maybe I'll go through it again. edit: I've seen 60 of these acts, some of them more than once or twice.

Definitely angling for that Pale Hose dollar with the Aerosmith booking.

I am planning on seeing them one last time. However I will gamble the Aero Vederci tour will make a Chicago stop, despite Steven Tyler's upcoming appearance at Naperville Rib Fest.

Good call. Although if you look at Naperville Ribfest bookings as currency for leverage, maybe Tyler solo can jump to the top of next year's Bonnaroo poster like Sheryl Crow.

I've been convinced since last summer that Aerosmith will headline Chicago Open Air since the festival had that partnership with the Loop last year. I can't think of too many other 70's acts that would fit into bill outside of the Scorpions and Judas Priest.
Blue Oyster Cult could play, but they're obviously not headlining.

Anyone remember when we got a COA announcement last year? Do we even know the dates for this year?

Anyone remember when we got a COA announcement last year? Do we even know the dates for this year? we got the lineup like mid january last year. was nice. without breaking confidences im pretty sure AB was told to expect COA to come back the same weekend again this year (so now a weekend before p4k) but nothing on lineup or tickets

Post by Pale Hose on Jan 23, 2018 11:35:48 GMT -6
Oh jeez I hadn't even considered Open Air. I would really rather not miss P4K but I suppose if that's the Chicago show I will be at Toyota Park.
Edit: Just read Wretched's post, not conflicting with P4K would be nice and also makes a ton of sense for them.

My prediction: Since that reddit guy says no Eminem at Lolla, he will headline COA. He's going right for the jugular of that Joliet fan base

I guess I'll make a COA prediction:
Friday: Tool/Breaking Benjamin Saturday: Avenged Sevenfold/A Perfect Circle Sunday: Aerosmith/W.A.S.P. *
*W.A.S.P. rarely ever does U.S. shows anymore, but one can dream.
