I agree that it is a pain in the ass, but there is really no question as to why this announcement was made the week of the festival.

LiveNation is Grande's promoter, so yeah there is a direct correlation.

Probably has less to do with budget cuts than it has to do with a bunch of Ariana Grande fans getting blown up last week.

A couple of practical questions at this point:
1.) Is this essentially the new Every Thread is Every Thread thread, or does it serve some other purpose?
2.) Who is this BANANAPANTS character? What's your deal, dogg.

If you don't want to see the best band on the lineup, I reckon that's your call.
I'll be in a cabin in Cle Elum by then so it's all the same to me.

The three big ones for me so far this year are
The Residents - The Ghost of Hope The Magnetic Fields - 50 Song Memoir Gorillaz - Humanz
50 Song Memoir is one of the most magnificent records I have ever heard in my entire life. In spite of the fact that The Ghost of Hope is one of the single greatest records the Residents have released in their entire 45 year career, 50 Song Memoir will still probably go down as my #1 of the year.

Miley is incredibly talented, I just don't think she's found her niche yet. It for damn sure isn't her role as the puppy that Wayne Coyne carries around in his purse. I honestly thought the stuff she did as Hannah Montana was better than most of what she's done since. 100% not joking. I used to listen to Meet Miley Cyrus on a fairly regular basis. I think she dolphinately has talent, but I agree that she has not yet figured out how to put it to the best use. I had no use for her until I saw her sing 'Silent Night' (I think that was the one) on the Bill Murray/Netflix/Christmas thing. It was so beautiful that I cried. Then I was like, man I bet that girl will do something amazing someday.

...actually I think my alley could best be described as 'Music People Hate'.

There is this band called The Philistines Jr., and after the Residents they are my favorite band. Anyway, there is a recurring theme in the Philistines' lyrics concerning taste in music which basically boils down to 'If I hear it enough times, I'll like it more.'
Which is true, and is also the reason that really I like most music. When I hear music that I really hate, I become fascinated with it. Why am I having such a strong reaction? So I keep coming back to it to find out why. And the more I listen to it, the more I start to understand it. The more I understand it, the more I enjoy it. It's the science behind how that cassette tape that got stuck in your car stereo one summer turned into one of your favorite albums of all time.
I reacted badly to Twenty-One Pilots the first time I heard them. I also reacted badly (VERY badly) to the Residents the first time I heard them. But anyway, there is ALWAYS more going on in a piece of music than you think there is and it doesn't make sense to me to develop a firm opinion on any piece of music after hearing it only once or twice. Music critics do that and I fucking hate it.
All I mean to say is that if you put as much into listening to new music as you are hoping to get out of it, you'll probably find that your horizons will begin to expand.

Yeah, that was condescending of me. I apologize. I totally get why people would not like them, but at the same time I do not get why anyone would be surprised that I do. That shit is pretty obviously right up my particular alley. And although even I could not define the parameters of that alley, I can say for sure that it is wide.
Plenty of room in my particularly wide alley for Twenty-One Pilots.

I mean it is pretty well known that Burrito and I have the most well-balanced, dare I say objectively best, taste in music.
Get on board, folks. Hating pop music because it is pop music is tres gauche.
