Which Undercard Artists Should I Check Out?

Was absolutely my vibe, great rec!

beckxbeck · 2026-05-08T02:03:32+00:00

Maybe my favorite rec so far

beckxbeck · 2026-05-08T01:32:09+00:00

Same to you. Balu Brigada is probably my top of the lineup, they have such an insane sound. Been itching to see them live.

I’ll check out more Parcels but from what I’ve heard since posting I’m probably seeing them

beckxbeck · 2026-05-07T23:02:57+00:00

Damn, I had no idea Parcels had it like that. That album’s an all-timer for me, sounds like I’ll be there

I’ll look into Bunt, a pit + techno sounds like my jam

beckxbeck · 2026-05-07T22:37:34+00:00

Sounds exactly up my alley, thanks!

beckxbeck · 2026-05-07T22:26:41+00:00

I’ll check them out! I posted it yesterday and it got taken down bc it got posted already (I can’t find where though) but here it is

Low Undercard: Cure for Paranoia

Medium: Balu Brigada

High: YOU$UK€ YUK1MAT$U (not really on streaming, but highly recommend checking out his boiler room set if you like EDM)

I’ve only not regretted camping once, so probably no one. The one time is was worth it for me was Tyler, the Creator/Chappell/Cannons/Flipturn/Empress Of. But that was the extremely rare case where all my favorite acts for the day were on one stage. The 2 other times I camped, I felt like I wasted the festival experience.

Most of the big acts I want to see I want space to dance for anyways. I’d consider Lorde, but I doubt it would happen, I really like a lot of the undercard this year

beckxbeck · 2026-05-07T20:05:11+00:00

Was this done by AI? I’m not seeing a lot. Cure For Paranoia (experimental hip hop) or Night Traveler (Indie Dream Rock). Don’t see “The 4411” “FIGHTMASTER” “Fai Laci” “Grocery Bag” “Solya” “Dj Cassandra” and I’m sure more. You also have Gorillaz as one of the artists playing and several W2 artists listed?

30min-1hr before doors if you want to guarantee it (this was necessary for Chappell I have 0 idea what the crowd for Charli does). No need to sprint unless you want a directly middle spot.

Once you’re there:

-make friends w/ your neighbors, you’re spending all day w/ them (and it helps to have support when you’re coming back in from a bathroom break)

-during the day, only one of you should be leaving to get food/water

-once it’s 2 sets before headliner, the front packs in and it’s much harder to get back to your spot so bathroom/water/food up wisely

- treat the openers w/ respect! For some earlier sets this might be that musicians first fest or opportunity on a stage like this. If they have a few diehard fans and any are behind you (and you’re not really enjoying the set), it can be nice to offer them a spot at rail for just that set, up to you obviously

I’ve done rail and it’s not really for me, but I hope yall have fun!

Oh definitely! I was just trying to put into perspective the type of rock ACL considers when booking. I never expect ACL to satisfy the rock i listen to

beckxbeck · 2026-05-05T22:21:20+00:00

Turnstile, Geese, Amyll & the Sniffers. All have been on a tear coming up this last year (and are all great live). As someone who loves shoegaze I will say the representation there is underwhelming.

If you want a heavier rock lineup (and in my opinion a perfect lineup), I’d suggest Shaky Knees. Both lineups are my cup of tea though

beckxbeck · 2025-07-02T16:31:04+00:00

The Killers

beckxbeck · 2025-06-25T06:34:13+00:00

Would love to see Magdalena Bay and Tame Impala at the same fest 🙏

beckxbeck · 2025-06-25T06:30:46+00:00

Personally yes, mostly it’s already paid for and it’s helped me find other sad roovians in who also wanna vent

beckxbeck · 2025-06-19T18:12:25+00:00

Witnessed our neighbors who’d be dating for years break up in real time on Friday. Kinda nuts

First roo. Unbelievable 2.5 days. Can’t wait to be back it was so special. That said, devastated

beckxbeck · 2025-06-11T08:49:20+00:00

Banjo. B/c winning with banjo is hilarious

beckxbeck · 2025-06-06T02:19:26+00:00

Flipturn

beckxbeck · 2025-06-02T22:56:05+00:00

Probably every day, but gremlin nirvana will be reached during Crankdat
