When We Were Young Festival (Las Vegas) Tour • Page 19

Depends on the band, how recent the newer material will be, etc. but I'm sure they'll all mostly focus on the hits. But if an artist has a new single or full-length out/coming out? I'm sure they'll play a new song, but probably only one.

Glassjaw might just straight-up do a jam session the entire time out of spite. (I'm half-joking about that. Kinda.)

 

I have it on good authority that Taking Back Sunday is just playing the first half of New Again.

 

Should be noted that they are now listing this as 11am-12am with “multiple stages of various sizes with several bands performing at the same time” and “opening acts will have shorter set lengths while headlining performances can range up to an hour or more”

 

Yep just came to post that. They answered questions on their Insta Stories.
Hopefully now that it's confirmed it's running an hour longer than we thought, and confirmed that headliners will play more than hour, that will stop all the weird theories that bands are only playing 4 songs each.

As infuriating as some of these conspiracies are that people are latching onto, let them believe it. Less people to fill up the queue when tickets go on sale tomorrow.

 

All bands are also required to play all My Chemical Romance songs.

 

i'm out

 

I'd absolutely take this over the inevitable TAYF heavy set they'll do.

 

Tickets on Stubhub are already listed at $350.00+ so the resale value has already been set. If this sells out I imagine those prices will skyrocket but we will see.

 

yoooo they changed "three stages" to "multiple stages" on GA line item:

• Performances all day on multiple stages at Las Vegas Festival Grounds

 

I've noticed Manchester Orchestra hasn't plugged this festival once.

No post about it on any of their socials. I know they have their own Spring tour to promote, but many of these bands have other tours going on. Interesting.

Any other bands not promoting this?

 

Part of me feels like it's still only 3 stages, but they changed the wording to "multiple stages" to shut up the complaining lol

 

Three stages still seems feasible especially if it is at all like that one festival you posted. Openers will have less time than headliners, like most concerts. I agree with you.

 

The 3 stages is almost starting to grow on me, reduces the amount of potential conflicts.

 

I heard it’s a three story rotating stage so everyone can see all 60 bands at once without needing to move.

 

You get a set of noise cancelling headphones and can switch through bands like channels at Planet Fitness.

 

Hahaha like one big silent emo disco. Or like that Josie and the Pussycats concert.

 

I love the people that think it saying “no refunds” means they are just putting tickets on sale to cancel and steal everyone’s money. Have none of these people ever noticed that all festivals say “no refunds”?

 

Even has somewhat who's a bit more skeptical of this festival than most, the no refunds part is standard boilerplate language for any ticketed event in 2022.

 

Every festival/concert/sporting event says "no refunds." Stupid people be stupid.

 

I've spent more time this week trying to put together a Spotify playlist for this fest than I have on actual work projects.

 

This ticket on sale will be a shit-show tomorrow.

 

Someone on Twitter was convinced every band would be sharing the same drum kit to cut down on changeover time. Unreal shit.

 

That drum set would be obliterated by the end of the day lmao

 

Better idea would be to share guitar/bass pedal-boards. Guarantee 75% of the bands playing this could do that and no one in the audience would notice.

 

I love this website so much

What is this? The Ernie Ball stage?
