According to the ones that I have seen, Fest 6, 7, 8 (which waa my first Fest), and 10 (which I went to) had the best line ups. I found a lack of "headliners" on Fest 9. I couldn't find some of the older Fest's line ups and I am pretty sure that I am missing out on TONS of things.

According to some of you, which Fest has had the best line up?

6 had an awesome lineup. 9 was probably the most fun I have had.

Fuck! I shouldn't have said that 9 looked inferior next to the other ones, then. It's just that to me, it didn't have as many "big hitters" as Fest 8 for example. Still a killer lineup though! Every Fest is fun

"Big hitters" could not be less relevant to my Fest experience.

According to some research that I have been doing in the past days, bands like Whippersnapper, Mastodon, Bayside, Floor, Alexisonfire, Modern Life Is War, and others have played Fest. This Fest has had so many phenomenal bands play, also, did Cursed end up playing that one time they said they would?

SUICIDE MACHINES were worth a few headliners imo. And Me First and the Gimme Gimmes were cool to see again.

nope they cancelled.

whichever Fest the lawrence arms played Common Grounds was really good, maybe Fest 5 or 6?

also, the Fest where Baroness and Planes Mistaken for Stars played Common Grounds was really, really good - Fest 6 or 7....

they alll kind of blend together after a while

Aww, that sucks. I thought that they played yeah, I did some research over all the Fest lineups (or at least the ones that I could find) and all of them looked phenomenal! The only one that didn't look as good as the others,was Fest 9, but it looked great anyway!

9 for me.

Do you all think that Fest 11 will either top or be as good as Fest 10?

I would think it will be hard to top. But I think there's also going to be a bunch of turnover from this year to next so who knows.

Yeah, it will be hard to top, indeed. I was looking at Fest 6, 7, and 8 lineups, and they all looked as great as Fest 10. I just want Lifetime and Shook Ones to play Fest 11. That will pretty much make my life, hahahah

I want New Mexican Disaster Squad to play again.
