people over the age of 35 (and that’s pushing it) attending music festivals don’t realise they’re ruining the vibe and weirding everyone out. you might think you’re living your best life but you’re actually living your most embarrassing life. try a real ale festival instead.

Yeah lmao, how many people under 35 do people think are going to see KISS, NIN, and Ministry?

Usually it's a pretty diverse line up with newer groups and a few gen x ones thrown in to cap each nite but this one they went pretty hard on the gen x ones.

Because the last really popular rock group was what, My Chemical Romance? Rock doesn’t bring young audiences anymore, the people paying $400 to go to a concert don’t want to see Imagine Dragons or whatever.

Nickelback's still a 90s band tho
I'm in my 20s and I'm probably gonna go to that festival, but I've seen enough concerts from that era to know that these bands are all geezers and I'm usually one of the youngest people there.

NIN, Alice in Chains, RHCP, Slipknot, and arguably Incubus are all quintessentially millenial. GenXers were all pearlclutching about them in the 90s...

Nah I'm in gen x and then some and we were listening to nin in HS. There's plenty of the younger gen x who loved them and the others you listed. Now the xoomers 5 years older than me like intervention hated em you're right about that.

Anyone who has seen any of these bands in the last 10 years knows that their core audience is now geriatric.

At 20 I couldn’t only afford packed standing room only; now I sit down even when I’m not tired just to feel indulgent, like some modern-day Caligula; that’s the best part of being in the older ppls section.
