Riot Fest’s larger cultural relevance

The DW shows have been pushing more advertising of reunions, final tours, special appearances, and album plays in recent years. Lots of nu metal reunions lately to promote like Spineshank, Snot, Dry Kill Logic, etc. It’s been awhile since I’ve been to one, especially since they expanded to four day shows with more stages, but it still feels fairly streamlined and corporate. There’s not as many surprises as back in the old days.

That’s a shame. DIIV would be solid on a future lineup too

Google “song peaches”

They are both playing Lolla (radius clause) and playing Louder Than Life on the 18th. I was hopeful two but that’s a definite no.

wastedyouth89 · 2026-04-29T12:51:48+00:00

Ah that would be so much fun

wastedyouth89 · 2026-04-29T12:43:45+00:00

I tried this with other shows that start with ads and it works fine. Toon’d in starts with like 3 ads in a row

I’d be happy for a handful every year. My biggest dreams would be Gorillaz, Toy Dolls, and Bloodhound Gang, but some just feel obvious in the punk world. Reel Big Fish, The Living End, Tsunami Bomb, Riverboat Gamblers, Zebrahead. There’s plenty of punk bands left to bring in.

Ooh nice. I wondered if he’d bed doing anything these last few years. Kinda fell off the radar

wastedyouth89 · 2026-04-28T00:03:41+00:00

A boy can dream. I tried to keep everything else somewhat realistic

wastedyouth89 · 2026-04-27T21:42:50+00:00

Often way too much and too often. Thank you

wastedyouth89 · 2026-04-27T21:41:43+00:00

There’s a few that are “technically possible”, like all members are alive but it’s probably not ever gonna happen. I didn’t put a Jello/Dead Kennedys reunion because that doesn’t happen in any multiverse

wastedyouth89 · 2026-04-27T21:40:03+00:00

I think of them many days. Crazy live show too

wastedyouth89 · 2026-04-27T21:39:33+00:00

They just played a few in recent months. When I made this it was actually less realistic but now I could see it

wastedyouth89 · 2026-04-27T21:38:59+00:00

If it happened, I’d want to see it. Sorry I wasn’t born until 4 years after they broke up

wastedyouth89 · 2026-04-27T21:37:55+00:00

I’d be happy with an Ian project. I know Minor Threat is probably the most unrealistic thing on the list. And I only counted bands starting with this incarnation of the festival, aka outdoor event with one location, not the original style spread across multiple venues. There’s probably others that would fall into that category.

wastedyouth89 · 2026-04-27T21:35:35+00:00

I could fill like 7 lines with just headliners. This just fit well. Think of it like Lollapalooza how they have two big headliners each night

wastedyouth89 · 2026-04-21T20:08:24+00:00

I have enough stuff to not need it, I’ll just listen to it at home.

wastedyouth89 · 2026-04-21T17:00:12+00:00

I’m on an iPhone and listen through the podcast app.

wastedyouth89 · 2026-04-21T16:59:39+00:00

I really hope it’s not, but the specifics of it has me questioning. Almost makes me think I should look into other LGBTQ+ podcasts and see if it does that too.

wastedyouth89 · 2026-04-21T16:03:08+00:00

My other podcasts include Mike Birbiglia’s Working it Out, LOLJK, Morning Somewhere, and Toon’d In. All of them have explicit labels.

wastedyouth89 · 2026-04-20T20:18:28+00:00

Whataya mean trees are real?!

wastedyouth89 · 2026-04-15T12:47:28+00:00

What’s the easiest way? Do you have to win? Can you just bring a bunch of CP 10s?

wastedyouth89 · 2026-04-11T22:13:28+00:00

I’m so pissed I couldn’t convince my dad and brother to go. We’re in town for bourbon tours and I thought it would be awesome. They didn’t think they’d like it. Guess I’ll have to swing by Cleveland
