2026 Mardi Gras

[Brian G.]

None of this is speaks to an objective measure.

For example, fallout boy was the 20th most listened to rock band in 2025 according to Spotify monthly listeners.

I'm moving on.

Per Spotify, for all genres…

Fall Out Boy is ranked #183

Bebe Rexha is right below at #186.

I’m not even that big a fan of the lineup, but not saying there isn’t a “good get” is objectively false per your guidelines - there just isn’t a good get for your preferences, and that’s OK!

While I'm glad my Saturday date has music I like, what band is playing has zero input on whether I attend Mardi Gras.
Heck, the band area gets so crowded, I'm not going to sit around for hours holding a sitting spot. I might just listen to
a few songs standing on the periphery and move on.

I vacation for Mardi Gras since its a happy/fun time. We love the atmosphere and ambiance with excellent theme parks
to boot. And the food booths, parade and strolling bands and dancers are sooo cool. Universal with its parks, CityWalk
and the onsite hotels are the perfect setting to enjoy Mardi Gras in a clean, safe family atmosphere.

We're looking forward to two weeks at Universal in early March for a pure FUN time.

This is a reasonable and productive reply. I stand corrected. Much appreciated.

There is no one here that would encourage me to spend the $$$ to attend any of these shows (some of which are repeat performers from previous years). Maybe next year.

We're all sleeping on Portugal. The Man?

Saw them at Boston Calling and they’re awful live imo

They were great when I saw them in Pomona about ... a billion years ago.

Bebe Rexha is actually a pretty big draw.

Maybe in like 2017.

Seaworld has a much better lineup this year imo

Fall Out Boy was there a DECADE ago when they were a lot bigger, possibly at their height. Now consider that they are still more popular than her on Spotify a decade later after becoming somewhat of a nostalgia act (I’m an HUGE FOB fan btw) and it tells me she’s not a big get.

Honestly, I really don't care.

Y'all can move the goalposts wherever you'd like. It's Mardi Gras, not the SB.
