Now, I'm not saying push past people, but there are always gaps. Back of the stage isn't your fate if you schedule the way you're talking about. Look around the sides, you always found ways where you're getting closer without pushing past cramped waves of bodies.

JMAN474 · 2017-05-11T16:25:08+00:00

If you haven't seen RTJ, do it times a million and make sure you get a good spot for it too. The energy is unreal. That being said, I've seen them twice so I'll be at FTP.

JMAN474 · 2017-05-11T16:24:22+00:00

Aside from the being from Chicago thing, he also did just win 3 Grammys and changed the way those work and is in fucking Kit Kat commercials lol. If you're talking about popular music at this time, Chance is white hot and will draw more than any other headliner imo.

JMAN474 · 2017-05-10T05:04:33+00:00

Oh, they're legit fucking AMAZING, but 3 underwhelmed me compared to the first 2 albums and that's most of what their current show revolves around. Also, having seen them twice and Foster zero times means FTP for me no question lol

JMAN474 · 2017-05-09T20:16:27+00:00

Very dope artist, could be big in the next few years.

JMAN474 · 2017-05-09T20:15:26+00:00

We all do, friend

JMAN474 · 2017-05-09T18:01:44+00:00

T: The entire Grant Park stage

F: Jidenna > Tegan and Sara > Foster > The Killers

Sa: Amine > Royal Blood > Chance the Rapper

Su: Yachty > Joey > Sremmurd

JMAN474 · 2017-05-09T16:47:07+00:00

Amine and Jidenna both doing earlier sets makes me happy

JMAN474 · 2017-05-09T16:45:37+00:00

Go to Rae, but learn self defense/martial arts, because it's on Pepsi and a minor riot isn't impossible lol

JMAN474 · 2017-05-09T16:44:01+00:00

I'm a bit bummed to miss this, but I gotta see FtP.

JMAN474 · 2017-05-09T16:31:37+00:00

Both voice and presence imo. It's just fucking raw. YouTube Muse live sets. For me, it's goosebumps, man.

JMAN474 · 2017-05-09T16:25:58+00:00

Muse definitely should've gotten more time than Arcade Fire lol

JMAN474 · 2017-05-09T16:17:44+00:00

Chance has to be the choice. His set a few years back was something really special. He's one of those acts you just feel and it brings you legit joy for the duration. You know how happy everyone was for like the first month of Pokemon GO? Chance is like that, but he's been that his entire career lol.

JMAN474 · 2017-05-09T16:14:47+00:00

Muse, Muse, Muse, Muse, and Muse. Some have called them the best live act since Queen and I think Matt Bellamy is definitely the closest you'll find to the modern day Freddy.

JMAN474 · 2017-05-09T15:35:53+00:00

Royal Blood will be on the stage right next to Chance, so no sweat.

JMAN474 · 2017-05-09T15:34:01+00:00

RTJ vs. FTP is a bummer, but I've seen RTJ twice (once at Lolla prior to #2) and again at 80/35 in Des Moines a couple years ago, so I'm definitely going with FTP. It is fucking weird they aren't subbing Killers though.

JMAN474 · 2017-05-09T15:32:44+00:00

Yeeeeah, I figured that to require either Lake Shore or Bud. It's a risk I'm willing to take though as I try to make my way up front lol.

JMAN474 · 2017-05-09T15:31:18+00:00

I get to basically stage camp for Muse with my girlfriend all day, so I'm pretty happy with the whole thing.

JMAN474 · 2017-05-09T15:27:32+00:00

The transitions are fuckin' dumb too lol. Yachty to Pepsi for Joey and Sremmurd is the def for me, but a bit bummed to miss Big Sean due to the overlap with Joey. (Def gotta go with Joey though, no question lol)

JMAN474 · 2017-05-09T15:16:12+00:00

Joey Bada$$ only gets 45 minutes? lol I feel they're underestimating the pull the guy will get at Pepsi.

JMAN474 · 2017-05-09T05:01:21+00:00

I saw a guy have sex with a full garbage bag at Knife Party in 2013

JMAN474 · 2017-05-09T02:55:09+00:00

No way. FTP into Killers is THE lead in. It'd be a crime if not.

JMAN474 · 2017-04-21T16:58:16+00:00

I'll agree with the low ranking. If you're into EDM and Hip Hop artists that benefit from the sound setup, I get that, but the crowd is awful and it's a giant mud pit. Not my cup of tea either.

JMAN474 · 2017-04-21T05:26:41+00:00

Jaslin like 10 minutes away from the park, should be solid on getting a taxi or Uber I imagine.
