58 irl 43. Yo Gabba Gabba? Is that a band or the actual kids cartoon people?
50, but a lot of ones I recognise are the older ones like Pete Tong, Jimmy eat world and Kraftwerk.
So I’m 60. Possibly even older because I might recognise the names, but I don’t know the music.
Only aged up for 7 years or so
A buddy and I drove cross country for Coachella the year RaTM first reunited. That would’ve been 2007
So I was originally going to make the point that while this current day lineup is written in a foreign language, there were still a ton of bands you wouldn’t recognize even from the ‘07 lineup…
That’s not exactly the case, lol. I think you could play the inverse of this game with the older lineup, starting at a younger age but going up with bands you recognize, and probably end up around the same age.
The more depressing part of this is seeing some of the acts I missed back then. Oh well…

How did Misfits end up being the only act to get their actual font/logo on the poster?
Travis Scott? Isn’t he the asshole that told his audience to harass the paramedics at his concert?
I’m 80. Don’t know how that’s possible, but here we are.
49
In my defense, all the ones I know I don’t listen to very often so it might just not be my type of concert.
They must put the artists millennials would recognize in larger font because our vision is starting to go.
The fuck is Travis Scott still allowed to perform concerts after letting people die in the crowd
Travis Scott is still allowed to perform?
I thought it was a fake image at first. I’m 65

What’s going on with the casual small print of Kraftwerk and Jimmy Eat World?
I recognise about 30, so I’m 3 years older than I am.
Pretty good I think.
53. But about half of those I only recognized the name. I’ve never heard a Charlie xwhatever song in my life.
Edit: guys I’ve learned so much about this Charlie girl since posting this. She did the “I DON’T CARE!” song, and she is neither American nor a rapper as I had assumed. She’s English! And she did a song with iggy azalea, and what I know about her is that she’s Australian but wants to be black so, so bad, someone very publicly cheated on her, and she had that video where she was dressed up as Cher from clueless.
Now I’m gonna go learn about Megan thee stallion. BTW, if anyone wants to test my knowledge on green day, I could have a presentation ready in about an hour.
63
73? What the heck! Feeling a little older after this, although I’m still not sure if this is a real Coachella poster or an AI fever hallucination word soup.
51 (actual age 42), but no fair, I’ve been following these lineups for the past 13 years and the bulk of each year’s entries are artists that are seriously niche, even for younger audiences.
57
Screw you, I don’t like this game! Jk
I got 39, which is my age…but I have teenagers so I know most of them. I “try” to listen to artists and bands they listen to lol. Keyword is try….
44… not too far off!
What a quack fuckin lineup
Ok, so Green Day, Misfits, Prodigy, Kraftwerk (and Lady Gaga but I don’t care nor do I know what is she doing there?). Also Gustavo Dudamel is an orchestra director so pretty random. And who tf is Bob Vylan? They didn’t have the budget to sign the real thing? The rest just looks like that web “AI generated names for your business”
Okay so that makes me 64 Lol👵🏻
I’m 52

I didn’t even recognize most of the artists playing at Coachella when I was in college, let alone now.
