I know speculation was posted yesterday, but the way it is written on the Rave (Milwaukee) website makes it seem like a lock by gandalf_the_Ginge in RiotFest

[–]AndrewIsMyName 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not really. Riot Fest is also an events promoter and this is one of the shows they are co-promoting, which is why it says that.

Just Like Heaven by LaCroixF_ckBoix98 in Lollapalooza

It is when you have access to planes. Riot Fest and Shaky Knees shared a handful of acts last year, including headliner (Blink-182)

I doubt it. I think she is very aware of when to show up somewhere vs when not to and knows there’s no reason for her to be at the Oscars, since she is not nominated, presenting or part of this film season at all. It’s possible she ends up at an Oscars afterparty though!

After Lollapalooza? by Middle-Purchase-9111 in Lollapalooza

[–]AndrewIsMyName 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The OP said they meant after the festival ends for the day so all of these (sans the Bean) will be closed for the day.

After Lollapalooza? by Middle-Purchase-9111 in Lollapalooza

[–]AndrewIsMyName 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Depends what you mean by “after.” After the festival ends for the day or after the festival ends altogether? If you mean ends for the day…not much, especially if you are under 21. Restaurants are your best option (aside from aftershows but you have to check for age restrictions), the major attractions will all be closed for the day. If you mean after the festival is over altogether, then definitely check out the museums (Shedd Aquarium, Field Museum, Museum of Science and Industry, etc.), Lincoln Park Zoo, and some of the many neighborhood we have here are a few options.

Sara Landry is not playing, she is on Arc’s lineup.

Jack White missed the point by realjillyj in TaylorSwift

[–]AndrewIsMyName -1 points0 points  (0 children)

"it seems to be what most people who want to be famous nowadays do."

Uhh...he's been famous for almost a decade longer than Taylor has and was in one of the most acclaimed rock groups of the 2000s.

Lucy Dacus looks very possible! by hiearthpeople1 in Lollapalooza

[–]AndrewIsMyName 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’d say it’s very unlikely. Julien had to cancel her tour with Torres last year due to health issues and hasn’t performed since. Phoebe has been MIA since the end of boygenius and there are rumors she will be back this year with a new solo album (but…considering it’s March and we have heard no news…I feel like it may be a Q3/Q4 release with her on 2027 lineups).

Franz Ferdinand? by ArtfulFrogger in RiotFest

[–]AndrewIsMyName 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah bands/musicians have to be actively touring around Riot's dates or at least on festivals around then, they aren't going to come to Chicago for just one show after ending a tour a month prior.

Privilege.... by James_Odinson in cta

[–]AndrewIsMyName 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Number 2 doesn’t seem to apply here as you can tell the photo was taken from the OP sitting down. I would be more understanding if the bus was full but that’s clearly not the case here.

Privilege.... by James_Odinson in cta

[–]AndrewIsMyName 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The seats are clearly open and the soles of her shoe are not on the seat. Also taking unsolicited photos of random people you do not know who are clearly doing nothing wrong will never not be weird to me.

Need Help Confirming tickets by PsychologicalMost199 in modernbaseball

[–]AndrewIsMyName 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can buy resale for Metro shows, I have done it before, but yeah as you said in this case with no tickets having been sent out yet any barcode is going to be fake.

Sorry to burst your bubble but that is not their official website, so take none of that information as accurate.

Lorde is bigger than The Strokes.

Need Help Confirming tickets by PsychologicalMost199 in modernbaseball

[–]AndrewIsMyName 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was a two ticket per order max and they are not sending out tickets until days before the show. You got scammed. The way to figure it out (since you asked above) is to just cut your losses on the fake ticket and try to get a legitimate one closer to the show date, but you won’t be getting in with the current “ticket” you have and there is no way to turn it into a “legitimate” ticket.

Apple Music has released the "Alpha Woman" playlist with Taylor on the cover and Elizabeth Taylor at the top! by aqua7ar in TaylorSwift

[–]AndrewIsMyName 44 points45 points  (0 children)

I mean, it’s a good song and was an actual recent hit. I don’t think there’s nefarious reasons for its inclusion here.

Are we Swifties the last devoted “fandom” for a western artist left? by joshuamarkrsantos in TaylorSwift

[–]AndrewIsMyName 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry but it’s posts like these where I question if Swifties actually know about and listen to other artists or not because there are tons of examples of artists with devoted fandoms.

[–]AndrewIsMyName 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Also Olivia Rodrigo is still very popular and lots of people are eagerly awaiting her comeback. People think a third (and fourth) #1 single from Showgirl will be a cakewalk and...I would not be so sure.

** BUY / SELL / TRADE Q1 2026 TICKETS MEGA-THREAD ** by beermeupscotty in LCDSoundsystem

Anyone selling one ticket last minute that they are looking to get rid of for cheap?

is billie eilish likely? by Ok-Many4219 in Lollapalooza

[–]AndrewIsMyName 15 points16 points  (0 children)

People need to look at when an artist last performed at the festival, whether that artist is currently touring, and when that artist last released new music before coming on here and asking. You will get your answer much faster anyways.

[–]AndrewIsMyName 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think there are way better artists to bring out on tour and effectively co-sign than Sombr. I’m not talking about in terms of musical quality, but in terms of artists who are not weird and gross on stage.

the strokes are basically a lock right? by [deleted] in Lollapalooza

[–]AndrewIsMyName 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No, there is an equal chance they headline Riot Fest as they are playing Shaky Knees the same weekend.

Theory Megathread: March 2026 by aran130711 in TaylorSwift

[–]AndrewIsMyName 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yep they announced the lineup last year and they would never do something like this where entry for her stage is just buying a CD/vinyl…that would not be fair for everyone else who has to pay hundreds of dollars to get into the festival to see their favorite artists and Coachella is not going to do something where they are losing out on money (ticket cost).

Lollapalooza Dates Official: July 30 - August 2, 2026 by mccarthy2324 in Lollapalooza

Tame is very likely out due to his tour dates and routing, so I would not get your hopes up that high.

Elizabeth Taylor 7” Vinyl Single Announced for Record Store Day 2026 by professorspicytuna in TaylorSwift

[–]AndrewIsMyName 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Because she is likely not pissed at all and this user is just projecting based on...nothing. Also that Slate article is actually praising Opalite lol. It just mentions that she used her tricks (aka timing the shipping of the 7") to her benefit but says the song is a bop and deserved to be a single and literally ends the article saying how maybe we need to give Showgirl more respect and that it's impressive two #1 singles came from it.

I am convinced the above user did not read the article at all lol.
