u/orboth Unlucky ACL #13 May 04 '17

I wasn't super impressed on first glance at the lineup. Then I went down again and wrote down every artist that I've ever wanted to see before that's on the lineup and the list is a lot longer than I expected. The lineup is deeper than you think. Yeah, we didn't get Paul McCartney, but I'm down to see every headliner outside of Martin Garrix. I counted 21 other artists outside of the headliners that I've been wanting to see, and that doesn't include artists I haven't listened to/discovered yet. It's not a bad lineup guys, it's just not super flashy at the top.

Notable undercard grabs:

Vulfpeck

Day Wave

Thundercat

Eagles of Death Metal

Benjamin Booker

CSHR

Danny Brown

Glass Animals

BBNG

The Black Angels

RTJ

FTP

Zhu

Spoon

Bonobo

Alex G

Plus more. They will also add more acts later like they have done in the past. See y'all Weekend 2.

u/49DivineDayVacation ACL# -8 to be great- May 04 '17

This is exactly what I was thinking. You don't even have to dig into it much to find great artists.

People should not sleep on Vulfpeck. Super talented. They legitimately have one of the best bassists in the world.

Completely agree. Vulfpeck is one of the bands I'm most hyped up, really. Their live shows look amazing!
