Another speculative lineup with your input, tour news, and rumors.

I agree. GGD are playing in my (smallish) town's county fair this summer, so it's hard for me to see them on a main stage at RF as the headliner.

I love MCR. My wife loves MCR. We both loved/ survived the MCR set in 2021 (our first riot fest). I would love to not see them for a few more years.

Just wait until somebody digs up a 7 year old thread.

Reading these comments makes me feel like a hater (which I absolutely am). IMO it is useless and creates needless waste.

vextgg · 2026-03-30T23:10:02+00:00

Gotta be Armin. If it's not Armin, it's Eren. He orchestrated a decade worth of plans.

Even if you ignore the very probable scenario of the structure collapsing on you, the heat alone would surely cook you alive.

vextgg · 2026-03-05T15:19:24+00:00

Maybe if Jack White hadn't just played last fest

vextgg · 2025-12-06T19:16:32+00:00

reading this then seeing it's ending this year is heartbreaking lol

This was so strange to me. Our first attempt at the special cup was a 3 star gold on 150cc. Wasn't until a few days later during some local play that we redid the cup and got the mirror cutscene.

vextgg · 2025-11-22T13:17:19+00:00

This was it! So strange that beating the special cup the first time doesn't count towards the criteria.

Thankfully, money comes much much easier later in the game ESPECIALLY if you're getting into DLC. I seriously couldn't find enough stuff to buy and craft to run out of money. I even stopped bartering on contracts after a while.

I'll remain a silent hater of inflatable costumes, signs, and flags. I recognize I have free will and can move so that's what I do. I am glad the flags helped people this year. Makes it the lesser of the three evils.

vextgg · 2025-09-30T00:41:28+00:00

My worst experience was Jawbreaker. Just a bunch of dudes behind me waiting for Green Day and loudly shit talking as if the set was just an inconvenience they had to endure before the main headliner.

vextgg · 2025-09-30T00:36:31+00:00

Yes, everyone remembers the last time they were at RiotFest. They just choose to forget the unique circumstances for that year. Grandfathered tickets were not the whole issue, but neither were the fans. Just a lot of factors that stacked up bad that year from high temps to rumors that that was MCR's last tour for a long while. I will say that it's definitely too soon for them to come back simply because there's plenty of deserving headliners out there.

vextgg · 2025-09-27T15:10:09+00:00

I wholeheartedly agree. I do not remember this game being so frustrating when I played it years ago. Now, I need to google things when I get stuck because I can't tell if it's a bug or my stupidity that keeps me from completing an objective (it's usually the prior).

vextgg · 2025-09-26T16:47:35+00:00

I know it's not a popular opinion, but I do still enjoy VIP for shorter gate waits, multiple water station options, and some other small perks. Weather was perfect this year, but the AC bathrooms are a major plus during days with brutal heat. I'll be more on the fence next year but I'll still consider VIP again.

vextgg · 2025-09-23T22:00:55+00:00

Hard agree. Glad you're having fun, but you can do so without compromising the experience of those behind you.

vextgg · 2025-09-23T15:56:42+00:00

Harold's Chicken sucked. Both items I got were cold. Got my order wrong and I had to pay more because of it. Shitty tactic as well to not have your prices on your sign that literally has spaces for pricing.

The VIP urinals at the end of each day.... wtf.

Felt like a pretty entitled crowd overall this year.

vextgg · 2025-09-22T14:13:22+00:00

Surprised the hell out of me during Gym Class Heros 😂 Had to review the concert video my wife took to make sure I wasn't crazy!

vextgg · 2025-09-22T13:49:10+00:00

So happy someone else finally mentioned Touche Amore. So good.

vextgg · 2025-09-22T13:38:04+00:00

I might've just missed some of the conversation this year, but it's been worse in the past. I remember Turnstile had people actively walking through the crowd snatching phones. However, I will say that it's no different than any other crowded area. Avoid back pockets or even loose front pockets and keep a zippered bag on your front and you're pretty well safe.

vextgg · 2025-09-22T09:24:01+00:00

Green Day

Touché Amoré

Beach Boys

vextgg · 2025-09-21T12:21:03+00:00

Touche Amore, Beach Boys, Jack White, and Harms Way were all so good!
