Quick heads-up from the Roo subreddit: before you drop a hot take that “this lineup sucks,” remember to add “for me personally.” One fan’s reminder — that music is subjective and a lineup someone hates might be another person’s dream — is the kind of slow-burn common sense the festival scene needs right now.
The post points out the usual cycle: older fans grumble about younger artists, fresh lineups get roasted, and in a few years some of those same acts will be held up as career-defining. It’s a good reminder to actually check out the undercard — you might discover your next favorite in a tiny tent, not just on the headliner thread.
Bottom line: taste is individual, lineups are a showcase for current music, and a little humility goes a long way. Save the vitriol; bring the vibes. See you on the farm.
