It should be exactly what it is. A moderately priced festival that appeals to the LA region with a lot of great though not overly huge acts.

I'm really stoked on this line up. Definitely worth a $99 price tag. But... I wonder how long until they raise the price? Also, I wouldn't fly from NY to LA for FYF either. Its great for what it...

Some of the venues are so far away to from the rest of the venues it almost doesn't seem worth it. Getting to the Hawthorne and the Aladdin would be such a mission. It seems like it would be best...

I love that FYF brings real hardcore to the fest every year and not the image conscious shite that warped tour touts around the country every year.



I could see Local Natives filling in...

I've been browsing Portland Eugene/Corvallis craigslist. Scalped tickets are still a bit high. If anyone in the Portland area comes across 2 extra tickets for $350-400 I'd appreciate the heads up.

I think its just that, more or less, commercial radio has lost its relevancy. We have events like Coachella now.

I'm thinking about driving up that weekend and seeing if I can get a ticket for relatively close to face value + service fees. What do you think the possibilities are? Worse case scenario I just go...

^ That would be the headliner to bring ALL the hipsters out from across america to LA for this event.

Edit - I looked at their schedule. Their first dates aren't until October and its listed for...

Very cool. Keep sorting through the undercard. You're making the work easier. I generally wouldn't listen to an act like Bombino in my spare time, but sometimes its still really cool to catch...

look into the miyako hotel in the Little Tokyo district. The park is just a short trip away on the metrolink. Its a pretty nice hotel for the price, rooms come complete with a bidet toilette ;)

I thought that all the fuckers drooling over knife party who missed him (or couldn't get enough of him at Coachella) would be drooling this line up simply for his inclusion. I guess you can't really...

I have a feeling the Neighbourhood could show up. They've been making the rounds. They played Coachella. They're local. No August dates. It would give them more exposure. Not really a...

Right. Good call.

You've got 4 months. Why don't you just hold on to them and see if some one else wants to go or see if he changes his mind?


Honestly, people who have been to OSL know that this festival is so...

I would say Paul would play Saturday simply because he is arguable the biggest of the 3 headliners. Metallica was arguably the biggest of the 3 last year (they were the only one with pyrotechnics)...

They need a tented stage just for hip hop and EDM. Keep the party moving.

Honestly, the only thing that's disappointing with this line up is the undercard. It doesn't have quite the buffet of bands like Lolla. No Local Natives, Alt J, Beach House, Death Grips, Major...

Phoenix is the last confirmation till tomorrow. We can all stop bitching about them being there now. They're not a headliner.

I was also looking at Tyler the Creator or Odd Future, they have nothing in August currently booked, they're playing a couple fests over the summer.

McCartney, NIN, Phoenix, RHCP, Prince? Honestly, that would be the line up of the year, imo. Prince, NIN, McCartney alone.

and I know its not going to happen, but it'd be nice if the festival...

the OSL viral marketing team... oh how they tease!!!

It's part of Golden Voice's slew of shows that occur in between Coachella weekends. Do you think this formerly nocks them off of FYF's list this year? Generally speaking, artists at FYF promoted...

I'm betting Phoenix will be a 2nd tier headliner like Foo Fighters and Jack White were last year. Also, weak headliners just give me more reason to go catch the twin peaks acts after watching the...

I think I paid just a little over $500 for 2 last year at regular price. Special Price tickets are just under what the reg was last year.

Special Price is still going. Friend just shot me a text saying he got his.

- edit - Just got through, I'm holding on to one Special ticket so there are still some.

THe website is a piece of crap. I just bought it on my phone no issue. Website crashed.

Dream List:
Led Zepplin
Rage Against the Machine
The Smiths (Maybe even just Morrissey at this point)
Radiohead
Pink Floyd

I recall that it's limited to only a couple hundred, so overall a very small amount. But they're opening it up past the early bird so more will be available to claim your ticket early. Just as a...

Yes worth it. No extra stops. Just fall asleep, they turn the lights on when you get back to the drop off area. What's an extra $40? Nothing compared to how much you'll be spending in general.

Kendrick Lamar would have been an excellent choice as well. He absolutely killed it at Paid Dues. The man can hold his own against tens of thousands. Absolutely spectacular. To bad he won't be in...

If queens of the stone age show up..... Oh lord!

Is the national headlining material? Maybe sub headliner but not what I would use to sell an additional 10000 tickets. Even with Paul, the headliners have to be strong every day.

Where's the fake line up at?

Like he gave phoenix the meat? Sounds fun

Nobody is going to let go of Daft Punk until they show up! lol

The same for Coachella. They will be rumored to play every year until they actually play.. one of these days...

I was hoping to hear about early bird tickets some time soon. It was announced March 13 last year. Maybe we hear something about it next week. Maybe they scrap early bird special.

Im just waiting for the guy who told us about Metallica, Neil Young, and Stevie last year to come back and fill us in.

Macklemore, probably. This is their year. Atoms for Peace? Im not sure I understand the constant rhetoric with this one. But again, their fall plans haven't been announced yet and the festivals...

The thing that's tricky with predicting the FYF line up is they seem to pull a lot of bands that will be prominent in the spring/early summer festival circuit for the following year, save a few 2nd...

I was hoping for Kendrick and Local Natives. As mentioned, Monsters, the Shakes, and Neil Young were all there last year so they were never on the list to begin with.

Do you think OSL will even...

The XX and Postal Service are playing some shows in the area in between their Coachella weekends. If we are to apply the same logic that we're using for Green Day, we'll call it the Law of Spring,...

^ I could very well see them doing 2 bay area shows simply because it is their home town. OSL is going to be more heavily promoted throughout the area. I remember driving into SF last year and...

Converge had the best pits the whole festival. So much fun.

^ that is true. It was very easy to catch the first half of the headlining set and then go catch the Twin Peaks set.
...

Sasquatch has an extremely low capacity compared to other major festivals, can't really compare when that sales out in 1.5 hours compared to Chella or Roo. Capacity-wise, OSL is on the larger scale....

Working off a wild theory, but would be very exciting if true.. so here it is. Sigur Ros isn't playing in any LA area venues outside of their appearance at Coachella. They're not playing in...

Willie Nelson would be epic!

Note about early bird: It sells out FAST!!! I've had a lot of luck using the ticket master app on my phone to get through and get tickets on high demand tickets...

Like others have said, there are things to do in the city. Last year, OSL was running more intimate shows at the area's nearby venues, but I think most nights we ended up just getting back to the...

The first time and only time I saw Sleigh Bells, I went into them without any judgement. But as they got deeper into their set the more I realized that it wasn't for me. I'm not saying they suck,...

Yes to all the above. But if nothing else, I'd kill to see Grizzly Bear at Twin Peaks. Also... I'd kill for APE to have video screens on the Sutro and Twin Peaks stage.

I'd also be stoked if...
