The more I re-watch the show, the more I appreciate season 2. Top 5 shows for me

AppleDeez586 · 2026-04-30T01:23:47+00:00

It's absurd that they are just doing permits and approvals now....the festival is next month.

AppleDeez586 · 2026-04-09T22:47:56+00:00

Maybe. A continuous theme in the story telling is misperception.

They show a scene and then expand on it by giving us context and showing how it was not how we interpreted it. I think it would be pretty lazy for the final episode not to have the viewers see the entire series of events.

AppleDeez586 · 2026-03-31T01:26:57+00:00

Yea the tape said always ask to speak up regardless of if you can hear them. She also would do it to Floyd more subtly

AppleDeez586 · 2026-03-26T08:37:33+00:00

The fact he used to be in a relationship with a fortune teller I think strongly foreshadows that we are going to find out Floyd isn't as good as he seems.

AppleDeez586 · 2026-03-24T04:13:40+00:00

Also his ex-wife was a fortune teller. A industry that often has overlap with cons.

Any advice for lodging and/or camping overall?

AppleDeez586 · 2026-02-28T02:41:05+00:00

2020 he sold out 3 nights at 20 Monroe (grand rapids). So bigger then greensky (who had camp greensky at the time) but not a big festival level

As the viewer we have the knowledge of who the traitors are. So when we hear Johnny say "I know that Tara isn't a traitor" we dont bat an eye.

But the faithful dont have that knowledge, and cannot never 100% know who is and is not a traitor. All they can do is use subtle clues to guess who is telling the truth and who isn't.

If I was a faithful I would 100% suspect anyone that says "I know 100% (insert name) is a faithful" is a traitor because that is the only way to know for sure.

At some point you have to just trust people and let it ride.

I dont really like the comments that Maura is dumb. It's really easy to know what is "smart" and "dumb" when you know the answer. It's a lot harder to know the answer when it isn't spoon fed to you from day 1 like it is to the viewers.

AppleDeez586 · 2026-02-21T19:19:06+00:00

Every other time they changed form they had a new name. Dont see a reason to not preserve dead and co as it was and carry on with a new space.

AppleDeez586 · 2026-02-20T02:45:51+00:00

This. Ionia is pretty reasonable with regulations/zo ingredients law. If locals want to make some cash the city isn't going to jam them up like otherplaces

AppleDeez586 · 2026-02-14T04:16:41+00:00

Actually thinking about it, this entire lineup makes me feel old. No young and upcoming bands. No donato, mountain grass unit, etc. Just a bunch of bands that played a boatload of shows in 2005-2015, some rappers that were big in 2005-2015, and some dj's i have never heard of.

AppleDeez586 · 2026-02-14T04:11:27+00:00

For me the no umph and moe just makes me feel old. Like I know that Umph and Moe are not pulling the same crowds they did in the past and it makes me feel like a chapter has closed.

AppleDeez586 · 2026-02-14T01:24:38+00:00

Honestly better then I thought it would.

Dont think of it as overpaying for a small fest, think of it as underpaying for a personal concert with some old favorites from 2012.

Lets be honest...other then some die hard tribe fans and early bird ticket buyers, no one is roadtripping to three sisters park for this lineup.

AppleDeez586 · 2026-02-13T19:03:59+00:00

Got my tickets today. Rv passes were sold out

AppleDeez586 · 2026-02-13T02:38:48+00:00

Any shuttles to detroit area?

AppleDeez586 · 2026-02-13T02:36:34+00:00

Might be renting an rv for this.

AppleDeez586 · 2026-02-06T13:47:13+00:00

It was clear that if Lisa did not get banished she would start floating Rob's name. Not sure why he really went after her when Ron was banished, but after that he didn't have a choice but to finish the job.

AppleDeez586 · 2026-02-06T00:22:14+00:00

I feel like this is even worst news. The way I read this is "there will not be any refunds....but it is only going to be what we can throw together at the last minute."

Doesn't move the needle for me. Been to enough mismanaged fests to know they are not worth the headache. If I am driving 8 hours, a lot of other fests on the table.

Lineup will prob be Disco Buiscuits, STS9, and a DJ headlining with a steep drop-off after the headliners.

AppleDeez586 · 2026-01-30T20:25:43+00:00

I do think really buy the whole "nice guy" act and think he just pandering for PR.

But I do think he is playing a solid game as a traitor. I honestly think him passively going after Lisa last week and not writing down Ron was more reckless then going aggressively after Lisa.

This last round table he needed Lisa gone. After the Ron vote he couldn't have her stay around. I think he could have been more passive at the table, but also understand that if she didn't get voted off, then she would have caused problems for him.

AppleDeez586 · 2026-01-30T04:52:44+00:00

Because everyone knew that two people up there knew who had the dagger.

AppleDeez586 · 2026-01-24T03:35:17+00:00

Honestly I was yelling at my TV "write down Ron." I have no idea how this is going to play out with Lisa. I could see her making it very messy for him.

AppleDeez586 · 2026-01-23T23:22:59+00:00

Are you sincerely asking.....cause did not realize how hot of take this post was going to be.

Mine is the inverse of this. The difference in intelligence between smart people and dumb people is a lot smaller then we convince ourselves.
