That's a really really good lineup, but it just isn't great enough to get me to travel for it again this summer. Y'all Chicago-adjacent folks should get a 3-day though.... or wait until they drop to like $100 on SH.
Edit: Re-read the lineup and deleted a "really"

rtj - the national is the most boring possible two headliner combo

Keep going back and forth between hating and loving it - love the lower and mid, have very little interest in YYY and the National.

Divino Niño might be the best band of the last 100 years so that's a good lineup

Okay time to do some baseless prognosticating on lineup placements that may not even be real!
Jehnny Beth is pretty high up, no? I could see Savages in that spot, but they must be feeling really good about the anticipated reception to her solo stuff.

goodson a friend sent this to me. They told me their friend got it from a booking agent they have some connection to. I checked the obvious internet speculation places before posting it here to make sure they didn't just pull it from there.

That has enough to get me there all three days, plus I can leave early on Sunday unless Yaeji ends up closing the blue. Pretty great lineup this year.

I would go to this and have a good time. I always like seeing The National/Big Thief, have only seen Cat Power once and it was before her most recent album, haven't seen YYY and would like to, but it seems to be missing a liiiiiiittle something.
That being said I like seeing bands and I like being outside in Chicago during the summer and I live within reasonable driving distance so I imagine I would have fun at this if it was legit.

Hop Along playing instead of Frances Quinlan is also strange (also Hop Along being that low is strange; didn't they sell out the Metro?)

I’m going with this being the real lineup

I agree that this has some weird inconsistencies but the actual lineup has had similar weirdness in the past as far as how high/low people are billed. Whitney being 3rd on their respective day is very similar to what's going on with TP here. Big Thief at #2 over Kim Gordon is the weirdest to me.

My friend said "someone from Riot Fest said it's real" which honestly reduces this lineup's credibility LOL

Twin Peaks that high seems really wrong lol twin peaks sold out the riv late last year i believe Similarly, Big Thief sold out like 4 shows at Webster Hall in the fall. Not surprised to see them make this lineup jump. |

Twin Peaks that high seems really wrong lol twin peaks sold out the riv late last year i believe Twin Peaks is a bigger draw than probably anyone other than the National in Chicago on that lineup which is another reason why it seems unlikely to be real |

only care about yyy, angel olsen, and deafhaven. the rest of the lineup is, to quote an act, bad, bad, and not good.
*doesn't like sonic youth, doesn't like sonic youth solo projects.

Bosma will like this lineup because other than Kim Gordon, maxo kream, run the jewels and Deafheaven every band on this lineup could also be in a gap commercial and no one would blink
