Not nearly as good as last years lineup, but I like that they got the Geto Boys.

Lived in Houston for 3 years and never went. This lineup is pretty legit.

2 years ago it was brutal. If you do get tickets its worth paying however much extra for the "fantasy pants" or whatever. The air conditioned tents that gets you in are life savers.

shite yea.

Already got my fancy pants ticket.

Just TVOR justified my ticket.

Everyone else is just a cherry on top.

All my friends that complained about the heat last year are out of shape people who don't even like to sit on the patio when it's hotter than 80 degrees.

Everyone should stay home, less people to deal with.

You can find me at the Amli 2121 pool before and after the hot days.

Dude I'm in shape and it was 110 outside. That is hot for anyone and I didn't have the fancy pants.

Ween made up for it though. Last year Willy Nelson and Primus. This year doesn't come close.

Was awesome. Chromeo and Yeasayer were also a lot of fun.

It was hot, but it was hands down worth it. Just stay hydrated and party.

It was miserably hot last year. Definitely splurge for a Fancy Pants ticket. Weaker lineup than last year's for sure.

I still appreciated and enjoyed seeing Z-Ro the past couple of years even though he is from htown. And how often do you see the Geto Boys doing a live show in houston? I think it's been over 5 years

I saw Passion Pit in Atx this past summer, they put on a pretty good show. Calvin Harris usually does a pretty good job as well. Will be interested to see who they give the headliner time spots to.

I went a few years ago and that shite was ridiculously hot. I saw storm clouds building and prayed. The rain god answered my prayer, of course then getting up and down that hill became quite the challenge.

That's a pretty decent lineup this year.
