Riot Fest 2021 (September 17-19, Chicago IL) Tour • Page 271

Even googling 'A Strabucks song' is not easy lol

 

Yeah, it's even harder when their biggest hit was named "Nothing"

 

Just signed it lol

 

The Misfits, My Chemical Romance, and ABBA. The holy Riot Fest trinity.

 

Just need Stamos and CM Punk.

 

I signed it and hope they get it but I’d take Dolly over abba 100 times out of 100.

 

Signed it myself!

 

Signed!

 

Not a fan but I’ll sign it just so I don’t have to camp at the main stage 3 days in a row

 

Signed, let's get weird!

 

Riot fest should get weird with their lineup. Abba would be amazing

Rem is my dream

 

ABBA headlining with Weird Al playing right before them

 

But honestly… It would be awesome if for like, their 20th anniversary, Riot just said “fuck it” and made a lineup of absolutely off-the-wall acts

 

To be fair, there's a decent chance Sunday on the Main Stages goes Mr. Bungle -> Devo -> Flaming Lips -> Slipknot which is pretty off-the-wall for any year except 2021 lol

 

REM would be sick but Lolla has first dibs over them if they ever reunite. The guy who does the booking for Lolla said in a Reddit AMA REM is his dream act he wants to play the festival.

 

Nah, not even in 2021 could that happen. I think they will change whatever schedule Mr Bungle was originally given.

It would seem pretty natural to have the last 3 bands on the Riot stage be The Ghost Inside, Mr Bungle, and Slipknot with the last 2 bands on the Roots stage being Flaming Lips and Devo.

 

We're on the same page, I consider Riot/Roots to be the "Main Stages" and seeing those 4 bands bouncing back and forth will be a lot of fun

 

As much as I'd love to stick around for Slipknot... I really hope the pair of main stages has Devo playing at 6 or 7ish.

 

I’ve only seen The Flaming Lips once and they were fun but it was a free show and I’m not super well versed in their music.

 

I have never been to a giant festival before (except riot/bamboozle/warped) but I would definitely consider going for REM. Big time bucket list band

 

Looks like Dinosaur Jr. is out

 

Now that we have a ~mostly~ ~secure~ lineup, what are people's priorities?

Smashing Pumpkins, Coheed & Cambria, NOFX, Motion City Soundtrack, Circa Survive, The Lawrence Arms, Beach Bunny, Living Colour, The Sounds, Meet Me @ The Altar, Kississippi

Run the Jewels, Dropkick Murphys, Taking Back Sunday, Mayday Parade, Bayside, State Champs, The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Andrew WK, GWAR, The Bronx, Citizen, Fucked Up, Man on Man, Action/Adventure, Just Friends

Slipknot, Machine Gun Kelly, Devo, New Found Glory, Simple Plan, The Ghost Inside, Body Count, Thursday, K.Flay, 3OH!3, Fever 333, Kennyhoopla, Ratboys, The Weak Days

If I can go Thursday, then I'd watch Alkaline Trio, Patti Smith, and Joyce Manor, as well as try and compete in that singing competition.
