EARLY ACCESS: Music Festival Fuck-Ups in 2024

Hey everyone, it's Early Access Day! If you can spare a few moments from trampling people for a good deal on a new TV, feel free to watch this weekend's Dose about 5 different Music Festivals managing to either lose bands, their entire festival, or... guests? Enjoy!
As we get closer to wrapping up the year, Buckley looks back at the 2024 Music Festival season and a number of incidents... including bands cancelling a Metal show because of the special guest (you'll never guess who it was), an entire Festival shutting down with NO REFUNDS, controversy at the When We Were Young Festival, and the Warped Tour re-launching and taking pre-orders... with NO bands? Plus, it wouldn't be festival season without at least ONE death!

I didn't go this year, but i did go to the two previous WWWY festivals. I'm not a festival fan, but it really wasn't all that bad. The crowd was definitely too big for general comfort, but honestly I really enjoyed it. I do agree that the idea to have the bands do full length albums was kind of a miss, but i wasn't there this year to verify haha. I guess one factor for me was that I ACTUALLY do like and regularly listen to a majority of the bands that were at WWWY both previous years, and had a hard time deciding which ones to see and which ones to skip!

that picture of fat kyle rittenhouse had me laughing my ass off, thank you.

Now that is a band I haven't heard mentioned in a year with the number 2 in it. The crusty ska people are still out there. Few months back a car in front of me had a Mustard Plug sticker on it. Thought that's cool, wait WTF! Only real suprise was the driver didn't have a pork pie hat on

True it’s funny how badly he messed up his 15 minutes of fame/infamy, also just as much as he didn’t belong there, neither “side” belonged there! He probably gets a lot of sympathy because he was protecting businesses and putting out dumpster fires
Adam Buckley
I don't think I said he crossed state lines WITH a gun, I know that was debunked, but either way he had no business being there. While I understand it was ruled self defense (and yes, that coincidentally one of the people he killed was a child predator, info he had NO WAY of knowing beforehand) my issue is the EXACT same as with the George Zimmerman case. George shouldn't have been where he was. HE was "attacked" while in someone else's neighborhood, as an antagonist, and it was ruled self-defense, but he never should have needed to defend himself because he shouldn't have been there. Kyle was not a police officer or a member of the national guard or reserves. He went there with a gun hoping for a fight, he got one, and now he's decided to capitalize on that by getting paid to speak at events and trying to make a garbage "video game" that didn't make him any money.

Great video, the Kyle rittenhouse thing was wrong though! He was staying with his father in town, he didn’t cross state lines with a gun, and while he did shoot a felon with a skateboard who was part of a mob trying to kill him, he also shot a child predator with a gun who also tried to kill him! His victory in court was a major win for self defense and the second amendment in the United States, shame he squandered all that by being a loser ever since

Omg, Swedish metal Greta had me laughing out loud.

Irony with choosing a Slipknot cover band, being that Slipknot have a festival held every year with their namesake called 'Knotfest', wherein Slipknow and their people choose the bands that perform there.
Adam Buckley
Yeah I just heard about that. Looks like, at the very least, no one's going to lose any money (at least not customers).
Adam Buckley
Yeah I'm just hearing about this now. Guess that could have gone in here too! At least it looks like they plan to offer refunds, so it's maybe not as bad as Lucidity at least.
Mr. Scadoop
You made this video and then sick new world cancelled their whole fest lol
Bree Boracheff
But did you hear about Sick New World 2025!? They cancelled it already “due to unforeseen circumstances”, but the rumor is that they offered the bands too much money and are in the hole by a few mill even if they sell out💀
Adam Buckley
Haha it's not bad. You gotta do it as "ahh" at the start, and "ya can't".
Adam Buckley
Haha that's ok. I'm finding out how popular Mustard Plug is with my audience today. Maybe in another video I'll reference the Mad Caddies and really stir something up!

I tried to type in Bill Burr but I dont really know how to do it

ey, you can't make dark comedy jokes nomoar

I want to be offended by the Mustard Plug comment but........
