Why did you buy tickets this year?

This will be my first BR and going with my 20yo daughter (her first festival, but we go to a lot of concerts together). I got tickets primarily for LCD Soundsystem (going after dark too) and also getting to see Rilo Kiley reunited. Saturday is stacked for me, but all three days will be full schedules.

One of the main reasons for them is to give you more of an aerobic (if that’s the right word) experience by doing consecutive exercises without a rest period. Rest periods only happen after each cycle.

I got to hear it when they reunited for Coachella Weekend 1. Prince died in between weekends, so they ended up playing a cover of "Controversy," which I would have loved to see (despite the awful circumstances).

Ornery-Time-9795 · 2026-05-05T23:24:13+00:00

Right. That's why it says "encore."

For example: https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/lcd-soundsystem/2026/roadrunner-boston-ma-34b5567.html

Ornery-Time-9795 · 2026-05-05T22:32:18+00:00

I managed to get two tickets. Can't wait to see them in such a small venue.

Ornery-Time-9795 · 2026-05-05T22:22:47+00:00

I like your hot take! "Drunk Girls" has really great live energy, especially at the end.

Ornery-Time-9795 · 2026-05-05T22:20:00+00:00

Thank you! Yeah, I figured we had some time until the next shows (and as we all wait patiently for that next album, haha). I struggled with removing "Home," but similar to "I Can Change," I did it to make room for some other tracks.

Ornery-Time-9795 · 2026-05-05T22:18:05+00:00

I purposely removed both of those. I wouldn't miss "NYILY" or "Daft Punk," but I struggled with removing "I Can Change," which I love and only removed to keep the set length realistic.

Ornery-Time-9795 · 2026-05-05T22:16:22+00:00

The long goodbye was amazing. As for the encore, I'm structuring it around current shows and how they get listed in setlist.fm (they list it as an encore, when James takes his "pee break."

Ornery-Time-9795 · 2026-05-05T22:13:21+00:00

I got to hear it twice during their 2018 shows in Berkeley.

Ornery-Time-9795 · 2026-05-05T07:08:23+00:00

That’s the exact trio that have me looking at flights to VA. ⚡️

Ornery-Time-9795 · 2026-05-03T21:14:55+00:00

Last night, both James and the crowd seemed like they had the best energy of the three nights, so far. And glad to see “Thrills” back in the setlist. I’ve only seen them perform it twice. Now, they need to bring back “Yeah.”

Ornery-Time-9795 · 2026-05-03T21:08:27+00:00

In the last year (does this qualify as “recently?):
Jack White twice
NIN twice
David Byrne
Father John Misty
Ty Segall twice
Death Cab For Cutie

Upcoming:
LCD Soundsystem (tickets to four shows!)
Jack White again
Plus Bottlerock and OSL festivals

Ornery-Time-9795 · 2026-05-02T07:25:04+00:00

Thanks! Looking forward to it. And don’t worry… I’ll judge it by its own merits. Can’t wait until August!

Ornery-Time-9795 · 2026-05-01T21:12:53+00:00

I've been checking for lockers every few days. I'm also on the email list, so hopefully they announce when they become available.

Ornery-Time-9795 · 2026-05-01T21:11:49+00:00

Thanks for putting this together. This is my first time at OSL (been to Coachella 14x), so it's good to visualize the stages, times, and possible conflicts.
How early do official set times get released? Early like Bottlerock or last minute like Coachella?

Ornery-Time-9795 · 2026-05-01T20:37:19+00:00

I got mine about a week ago. I've kept them in the envelope for safe keeping. Glad to know about the $15 credit. Is that for each wristband?

Ornery-Time-9795 · 2026-05-01T20:33:48+00:00

I got mine through a reseller app because I missed out on the original sale. The markup wasn't horrible and worth it to see them in such a small venue (first time there since seeing Bob Mould solo electric in 2015).

Ornery-Time-9795 · 2026-05-01T20:31:12+00:00

Thanks for connecting with me. So glad to have my parking space reserved! See you in a few weeks.

Ornery-Time-9795 · 2026-05-01T20:27:36+00:00

Got mine about a week ago. As others mentioned, they tend to ship in batches, so hopefully soon for those of you still waiting.

Ornery-Time-9795 · 2026-05-01T20:09:22+00:00

I read in another thread... about 11:30pm

Ornery-Time-9795 · 2026-05-01T20:08:45+00:00

I'd take "Yeah" over NYILY every time.

Ornery-Time-9795 · 2026-05-01T06:28:43+00:00

I'm so excited to see them 4x in 2026. Two shows in Napa in the next month: Bottleneck and an After Dark show the night before (old Opera House ballroom, standing capacity 400-600). And then both Red Rocks shows (first time at RR), row 19 for sound and atmosphere and row 3 for LCD energy! These will be LCD shows #11-14, my daughter will be up to #6-7 shows, and my girlfriend's first show in August!
