so you're saying there will be less than 50k ? what's the wager?

was expecting garth brooks for 2016. this seems like such a rehashed lineup.

Sounds like the worst concert ever.

I haven't listened to country in a few years, but I liked Eric Church. He was never a toolbag.

Still.. I'd rather see him in a non-festival atmosphere and preferably a small venue. Large concerts are only fun if you fork over the money to be close up where people are more lively.

I went to BCSF years 1&2, and it was so miserably hot that I said I'd never go again. Don't think I've ever been that hot in my life.

I'd be interested in seeing Randy Rodgers on a big stage like that. But it's not worth having to listen to the rest of that crap. I'll just settle to see RR at the varsity next week.

Actually, he kind of acts like one, but he's certainly the best of the 3 headliners and has good qualities. This festival has certainly gotten stale with its act selection.

One of these things is not like the others...

Exactly what I was thinking. Good for them tho.

I dunno. They got hurt by crappy weather Saturday-Sunday. Didn't they have to cancel or delay some performances? And I can't remember if the Taylor Swift concert Friday counted or didn't count toward attendance -- she wasn't part of Bayou Country, it was a separate show.
If the weather is good, the crowds will be good.

I'd rather see Randy Rogers at the varsity and skip all the rest
