ACL WE2 Preview
Weekend one at ACL Festival 2024 had some interesting buzz, positive and negative, on the socials and elsewhere. Chappell Roan apparently runs the universe now, country music leveled up and the middle-card is dominated by tiktok. However, reports of way oversold GA+ areas, VIP wristbands having their open bars removed and more means the luster may have been worn out fully if not for those few standout performances for the Reels crowd. Even more intriguing (and despite my old man yelling at clouds routine), wristbands were in full demand, reselling at double the price well into Friday. This weekend’s ticket exchange rates are a bit more normal; just above face value is easy to get, so keep an eye out as prices drop.
One kind of cool thing, one of the stages was 100% run on renewable energy.
Now, I was not able to attend, so we dispatched our stealthy photo guy, Nick Radcliffe, to grab some pics and take in the pretty lighting to act as a preview to your WE2 revelling. I recommend hanging with me when Being Dead kick off Saturday at noon. We can watch the UT/OU game in the tent later. Heh.
