The people in charge of Outside Lands have already noticed that tickets to the Golden Gate Park festival have been unusually slow. It could be the mediocre line up, or the fact that the festival this year is only two days instead of three. Whatever the reason, they have decided to drop ticket prices. One day passes are now $75 ($90 last year), and two day passes are $140.
The first year of OSL brought 130,000 people, mainly because of Radiohead. Last year, 85,000 people came out to see Dave Matthews Band and Pearl Jam. This year Kings of Leon and The Strokes headline, but OSL just can't seem to attract the ticket buyers. They also have a permit for Friday still, but couldn't attract someone big enough to headline the date.
The event's promoters, Another Planet Entertainment, told the Chronicle that they're "scared to death." What do you think about the lineup? Why can't OSL get the numbers Lolla or Coachella can?
