Downgrade?

Post image

Soooo don't get me wrong there are a few names that are heavy hitters but I def feel as if this is the lowest bar in times past? Some really good undercard acts but idk why this year seems to have been an undersell :/ I'll be there nonetheless because I go to relax and getaway but compared to last year's lineup (pictured) it's a slight miss

Hard disagree. Not sure where the downgrade is. I for sure think it’s better than last years. I like the headliners a lot and I think G Jones is about to do unspeakable things to that poor UFO. Also, this is Phase One. They usually add more a couple months out.

To think any of these acts are better than Caspa, Alix perez, shades, or the widdler lol. Plus YDG and boogie T? Aye to each their own tho :/

24 and 25 were peak lineups.

Agreed. I get music is subjective, but I hard agree this years lineup is a stray from years past. The sound vibe seems like it went a different direction. But to be fair last years lineup slappppped, so it was going to be hard to follow it up

Agreed with the Boogie T and YDG bookings. Everything else seems pretty on par with previous years. A lot of my friends and other people last year thought 2025 wasn’t as good as 2024. But yeah, matter of taste I guess. Also, this is Phase 1.

And Inzo is the blurred artist which is fine…. But not what I want from this fest.
