    Default Huge disapointment for 09 lineup

    This lineup makes me not even want to go this year. The entire lineup for 09 is about half as good as one day of 08's. Did all the big name acts decline to preform this year? Whats the deal? Do they plan on releasing newly added artists at some point??? There arent even enough artists to play the entire time if the format is the same as last year.

    The '09 lineup is much more similar to the lineup of '07 (by the amount of artists). The first year the artists all played their full sets instead of only having an hour or so of stage time.

    And if you don't like the line up, don't go. It's pretty simple.

    I kind of like the idea of the longer set format. For me, it's not all about the artists anyway--it's the whole experience. There are still quite a few people I want to see so I'm not gonna complain!

    I'm happy with the lineup. The only thing I'm wanting to hear more about is the smaller stages and their lineup/timing. Then when the schedule comes out, it's frantic coordination time.

    I am hoping there are some more added to the side stages. Only about two to go see...who are you looking to see on the side stages? I want Charlie D of course and Ricky Scaggs, but no one else really interests me like there were the past two years. My feel will be happy!

    Hi guys and gals, I have been waiting for the announcement for sooo long and it finally came! Yipee, happy about Kenny and Brad - does anyone think that Keith Urban might appear as a surprise due to him playing with both of them before?? The prices are so high this year. For just me and my hubby in our rv in Gold would be $2,100.00!!! Yikes! Also a bummer, it's the same weekend as bikefest in Laughlin that we go to every year. I am going to have a very hard time talking my hubby into going to Stagecoach this year instead of Laughlin.

    Your right on ..
    It is very expensive.If I did not live right around the corner and have work to do I would be going to Maui for that kinda money....

    Play my ipod on the beach with all my favorites.
    Guess thats why they have layaway...
    Ummm I wonder how many will be trying to sell there tickets when they get laid off and can't make the monthly payments.
    Sounds like a great deal for all involved...
    Yet so many will overspend just to have a good party.....
    Finally getting fun in here once more.....
    Ok that is my 2 cents worth.....

    Kinda nice knowing they won't be adding Friday....too much chaos last year, and too many days. I'm sure artists will be added, and who knows Brad may have to cancel if his new baby arrives at the same time. I'm only torn about buying the assigned...expensive seats and then wanting to go to the other stage for other performances

    It is smaller then last year, but me and a friend of mine, were talking and we said its probably smaller so that way having one artist totally have no audience while a big artist is playing on another stage is pointless. They are keeping it so that way everybody should have an audience. I am about seeing the artists for a longer time then just a stinking hour. Like IHML said, its about the experience of a whole is what thrills me about going. The drive up with all of my group, the waking up to freshly made margaritas, the partying and seeing a country concert is just the icing on the cake.

    I'm also with Sacramento on what she said in her last line. Nothing mean; just trying to save you some money.

    C'mon, Reba McEntire!!!!!! All I need to do is see her and I am good for the weekend!!

    ok.. here goes.
    Folks, this is a good line up.. fun music, well known artists, and a great variety..New stuff, old timers and even a throw back from the 70's (poco). All ages are represented, all ages can relate, and all ages will find entertainment. Ok,, we know not all of us like the new music of Kenny,.. no big deal, he'll entertain us with his old stuff too. Reba, well she is an icon in the industry with a huge fan base. She was my first country concert. But CDB will rock the house with The Devil went down to Georgia, ZBB will get me off my seat, Brad will make us laugh with his fun songs. the way I see it.. if you don't like this performer, there's another stage . 09 will be especially fun for me because of so many people I met in 08!!! What a great reunion!! Yes there are cost increases, and I'm feeling the pinch like everyone else.. but gosh... what a great weekend we're going to have. My kids laugh that this is "mom's woodstock"....ok.. maybe it is... no responsibilities, no job, I can let me hair down, drink if I want, have fun, and no one needs to complain, or judge me...or tell on me!!
    ok... I feel much better... remember my motto from 08....what happens at stagecoach, stays at stagecoach.

    i agree... mostly. however LAST years list was WAY better. they really couldn't top that so anything would have been a step down. however, it will be just as fun. i believe we already had this discussion in another thread but ill say it again. this lineup isnt bad but it isnt good either

    ok.. I do respect your thoughts Honkytonker....can you tell me what part of the line up you don't like? what would you change? keep in mind the planners may have thought the same as you, but the artists declined. I'm thinking about who sould or should not be there?

    I respect your thoughts too everybody. just wondering what is so upsetting about a smaller line-up.

    Alan Jackson,
    Brooks and Dunn,
    Craig Morgan,
    Dierks Bently,
    Faith,
    Jack Ingram,
    Keith Urban,
    Shania Twain,
    Sugarland,
    Toby Keith...

    etc. i understand those would piss a couple people off as well but they are among my favorites and would LOVE them in concert. I will say that lady antebellum and Miranda Lambert as well as kenny are GREAT picks.
