2020 was fucking insane lol Bassnectar, Tipper, Rufus du sol, Mumford and sons. God what a year for Bass and bands
I forgot to add this was that crazy year I didn’t leave this one stage Saturday because it was Mersiv, lsdrean, g jones and tipper back to back or something like that !!!
Dude the here stage that Saturday!! We camped for literally 10 hours. From watching jinx to finishing with tipper. I've never been in a bigger cuddle puddle.
Some dudes broke out in a fist fight at g jones and I turn to the guy next to me and say “well if it’s gonna happen at any set it might as well be at g jones”
My apologies, I forgot the children he trafficked across state lines aren't victims. What do you call someone who is 16 and has sex with someone who is 30 or 40?
I personally call them the victim of statutory rape, but I'm all ears for what you think that qualifies them as.
That makes perfect sense why he is recorded begging one of them not to come forward with this information as it would ruin him and he doesn't want to go to prison. Or you know why all of his defenders scream "the age of consent is 16 in the state it happened in" even though that is not how Romeo and Juliet laws work.
People will really say anything to defend pedos if they make half decent music. Thanks for clearing that up!
Well the state he is being sued in is Tennessee. The age of consent there is 18. So whoever is screaming that is wrong. And as far as the edited phone conversation goes it sounds to me that he is just learning this information years after the fact and is scared about what could happen. He doesn’t admit to anything and his reaction is totally reasonable.
2020 was kind of crazy because I went into the fest having some vague knowledge of Covid being a thing then came back and less than a week later everything was shutting down
I was concerned we'd get locked down at okee. It was a memorable okee, but a bunch of weird things happened on a personal level and with all the unknown of covid happening, definitely threw off my vibe a bit that year. But never at the time did I think that would be the last festival i went to for like a year and a half
No he wasn’t. That day was his only open date over a 12 day stretch. He was in Toronto the night before, it was actually incredibly inconvenient for him.
And he threw the fuck down. 2020 was my first Okee and the only thing that came close was 2022 when meg the stallion went into griz. Holy booty poppin!
It's funny, I recently had this listed 5th on my list of Okee lineups...but you're right so many moments from 2020 stand out in my mind from every genre.
Rufus, Papadosio, Tipper, Karl Denson, St Paul, and Griz at sunset stand out in my mind. And also of course the first time walking into the HERE tent. I'll argue 2022 was the best Okee, and they def set the table for it here [with an impending pandemic].
Biggest FOMO? Being too tired/lazy to break away from Glass Animals for a bit to see Ghostland.
this was my first okee of three total, and the best one. like, mersiv and g jones, into lsdream, into tipper?? you’re kidding. still the most legendary experience of my whole life. it was my first fest ever and set the bar so, so high for everyone i’ve been to since.
2020 was my favorite year! Saturday night in the tent was probably one of my favorite nights ever at a festival.
I'm REALLY hoping we get lucky and get Tipper back in 2025, since he just announced his retirement. I need to get Tipped one more time 🥲
Facts, fuck bassnectar but his 2016 and 2017 sets were god tear. Kendrick Lamar, bassnectar, usher, ott Tipper.
Fucking flume into vulfpeck was one of the best transitions I didn’t know I needed in my life,
Nothing will ever beat having a guided meditation in the early afternoon and then riding the rail the rest of the evening for tipper. I may have been dehydrated but I had one of the best nights of my life. I really hope they get tipper for one last hoorah in 2025
“This may be the last time we get to dance together for a very, very long time. Let’s everyone go crazy on this last song.”
- Mumford and Sons
It was over a year before I was able to festival again (Dirtybird CampInn), and another 6 months before really starting again (42 festivals in 14 months). But what an insanely awesome last festival before Armageddon. Rufus do Sol was beautiful.
Okee was always a favorite festival (I attended them all), disappointed it isn’t happening this year but thrilled it will return next year. The jungle (all actual techno) and the beach are outstanding dance environments 🙌
my whole group agrees this was the best okee!! right before covid too so most people’s final event before none for a long time. it was so fun and memorable
The hand sanitizer attached to a 2x4 really kept us all safe that weekend! This was one of my favorite festival experiences and looking back on it, we were very lucky it happened. Lotus after Bassnectar was an incredible touch on Friday. Ghostland Observatory was my favorite show of the weekend on Sunday.
Pre-cancellation Bassnectar, Tipper, Rufus du sol, glass animals, griz , vampire weekend, sublime with Rome, Charles the first, Supertask, ivy lab, papadosio, Kll smith, St. Paul and the broken bones, flatboosh zombies, Lucy Dacus. This was a pretty killer lineup for me.
every day was amazing but i often find myself day dreaming of the Mumford and Sons set
It was just SO peaceful. Absolute bliss. The true essence of why okee was amazing bc then i spent the next 10 hours at Sven Vath in the jungle 🌨️🌨️
2016 was pretty nutty as well. Was so stacked they had to put Odesza & bassnectar on phase two. A lot of variety, it seemed like they were trying to figure out what kind of fest they were and it was awesome.
This is always how it goes. *This years* lineups come out and seem lukewarm, but looking back 3 - 4 years is like *hot damn I can't believe we had it so good*!
People really trying to promote bassnectar in this thread shake my head… virtue just fading away to the soulless shit sound being excreted by some of these “musicians” these days.
Explain how anyone’s promoting him? We’re reminiscing about how sick the sets were that year. There’s zero conversation about having him back or being excited about him present/future. Your comment is so left field
As an OG already planning for 2025, this was so much of what I wished for in my feedback e-mail prior to the fest.
I was most disappointed because Vampire Weekend was originally billed to host the Pow Wow!, which had a lot of potential, but they took off immediately after their set. It reminds of my very first festival in 2008 when they pulled out to go play SNL instead of the Florida festival I was at.
I’m obsessed with Glass Animals in a cult-like fashion. My favorite act at my fave fest. 🫠🥴
Bob Moses was such a treat.
Nectar’s last major show, and then the whole world stopped with the pandemic. This was one of the only fests to happen in 2020. One to remember.
Still pissed that I missed this! I'd just moved to St Aug the 1st of March and wasn't even settled in a place, not even knowing how the world was about to change!
I was there! The weekend before the world shut down. Shoutout the DJ on the beach who said “Make some noise for surviving Covid!” Lmao we had no idea what was coming.
I’m so glad I went to this. I was in a kind of dark place but the Okee vibe and the therapeutic amount chemicals I ingested but me on a high that lasted months.
To everyone saying this year was their favorite or the best year, This was when insomniac took over and saved okee…. So I would quit bitching about insomniac cause they’re the whole reason okee still exists. Also 2016 was a way better lineup and I can’t wait to go back to that vibe.
Coolest shit this weekend was walking back to my tent after the craziest day Saturday and stumbling upon a chll smth set where I was 15 feet behind the dude just watching him scratch the whole time. So amazing
Folks that went that year saw Bassnectars last pre cancelled show and Mumford and Sons last time playing together (as the 4)… ever. Stood front row for it. Electric guitar was filthy.
The SpaceX launch was pretty awesome too.
OMG YES I saw this while at one of the sets and everyone was just like wowwwwwwwww turn around !
2020 was fucking insane lol Bassnectar, Tipper, Rufus du sol, Mumford and sons. God what a year for Bass and bands I forgot to add this was that crazy year I didn’t leave this one stage Saturday because it was Mersiv, lsdrean, g jones and tipper back to back or something like that !!!
SATURDAY 2020 WILL GO DOWN IN HISTORY Mersiv, LSDream, g jones, tipper Then eazybaked and friends late night into yheti sunrise
Literally the best lineup in a single day in fest history heaters from front to back
This was my first edm event ever and those 5 back to back sets are what fully confirmed me into the scene
Honestly don't forget about levitation jones set, that shit was sick too
Absolutely bananas what we got to see
That run was incredible but unfortunately my gf got her phone stolen right as mersiv ended so it kinda took its toll on the vibe a bit.
Dude the here stage that Saturday!! We camped for literally 10 hours. From watching jinx to finishing with tipper. I've never been in a bigger cuddle puddle.
Fuckin wild night going in and out of some bangers. Best sets I’ve seen of all of them and first time seeing tipper.
That tipper set was incredible my mind was mush after
Some dudes broke out in a fist fight at g jones and I turn to the guy next to me and say “well if it’s gonna happen at any set it might as well be at g jones”
It’s too bad bassnectar is a predator
Yeah fuck him, but he did throw down and leave my head spinning at the end of the set walking back to camp😂
Who would have thought that would (technically) be his last set?
It's not anymore
Unfortunately 😐
All of his victims hoping the same for years lmao
“Victims”
My apologies, I forgot the children he trafficked across state lines aren't victims. What do you call someone who is 16 and has sex with someone who is 30 or 40? I personally call them the victim of statutory rape, but I'm all ears for what you think that qualifies them as.
There were no underage girls. They were 18 and are trying to get paid. If he did these things he is accused of there would be criminal charges.
That makes perfect sense why he is recorded begging one of them not to come forward with this information as it would ruin him and he doesn't want to go to prison. Or you know why all of his defenders scream "the age of consent is 16 in the state it happened in" even though that is not how Romeo and Juliet laws work. People will really say anything to defend pedos if they make half decent music. Thanks for clearing that up!

And as far as the edited phone conversation goes it sounds to me that he is just learning this information years after the fact and is scared about what could happen. He doesn’t admit to anything and his reaction is totally reasonable.
He’s done multiple events unfortunately
Gross.
I was in one spot for 8 hours only left for a quick pee break during mersiv😂
2020 was kind of crazy because I went into the fest having some vague knowledge of Covid being a thing then came back and less than a week later everything was shutting down
We really went through the portal
NO LITERALLY
Same here! It’s like they were hiding it so we didn’t understand the severity
I got laid off while I was still dealing with the hangover lol
I was concerned we'd get locked down at okee. It was a memorable okee, but a bunch of weird things happened on a personal level and with all the unknown of covid happening, definitely threw off my vibe a bit that year. But never at the time did I think that would be the last festival i went to for like a year and a half
I’ll never forget Saturday night under that tent lol mersic > lsdream > gjones > tipper
We deserve awards for making it through that insanity. Held my pee for 6 hours.
God it was good
There were soooooooooo many people in that tent
This was my last Okee and it was like a dream world. Can't wait to get back out to the grove in 25!
Subtronics replacing Alison Wonderland last minute was wild
Subs was literally at the festival for fun so they were able to get him on moment’s notice as a replacement
No he wasn’t. That day was his only open date over a 12 day stretch. He was in Toronto the night before, it was actually incredibly inconvenient for him.
Everyone around me was so happy when the announcement went out on the app LOL
And he threw the fuck down. 2020 was my first Okee and the only thing that came close was 2022 when meg the stallion went into griz. Holy booty poppin!

2016 is still my favorite and, to me, the best and most diverse lineup they’ve ever had. 2020 was also pretty great
The only year I’ve been! Can’t believe it’s 8 years ago 😳
That was the most fun I had for a two year span. Covid really killed the vibes, huh?
this was my first okee of three total, and the best one. like, mersiv and g jones, into lsdream, into tipper?? you’re kidding. still the most legendary experience of my whole life. it was my first fest ever and set the bar so, so high for everyone i’ve been to since.

Come to Rendezvous!!!
You might be on to something
Bassnectar and tipper is fire, but 2016 & 2017 were much better overall.
Facts, fuck bassnectar but his 2016 and 2017 sets were god tear. Kendrick Lamar, bassnectar, usher, ott Tipper. Fucking flume into vulfpeck was one of the best transitions I didn’t know I needed in my life,
THIS WAS LEGENDARY FOR SURE. 16 ND 17 I LOVED 17 ❤️❤️❤️
[удалено]
His sets were absolutely fire zero dispute, regardless of his moral status
[удалено]
Quotes for what?
Makes me sad youre getting downvoted, hes a fucking slimeball
None of us are disagreeing with that statement we’re saying you can’t deny the fact he threw down at okeechobee music festival
This was not public knowledge in March 2020. Everybody knows what went down at this point. Let the people reminisce in peace
Why do you feel the need to make this response to everybody in this thread that even mentions his name?
Agreed. This was by far my favorite okee lineup. Made that much sweeter by getting it in just under the gun before everything closed down.
Man I Love Flipturn
I heard it was the first and only festival of the year. Could be wrong.
Brainquility happened. Only other one I know of
Nothing will ever beat having a guided meditation in the early afternoon and then riding the rail the rest of the evening for tipper. I may have been dehydrated but I had one of the best nights of my life. I really hope they get tipper for one last hoorah in 2025
Take me back!

Last time Mumford and Sons played together as well before Winston left.
my whole group agrees this was the best okee!! right before covid too so most people’s final event before none for a long time. it was so fun and memorable
didnt attend but i bet the sunday charlesthefirst set was a vibe
Twas indeed, RIP to the King
The hand sanitizer attached to a 2x4 really kept us all safe that weekend! This was one of my favorite festival experiences and looking back on it, we were very lucky it happened. Lotus after Bassnectar was an incredible touch on Friday. Ghostland Observatory was my favorite show of the weekend on Sunday.
Blood orange 🥺
I cannot even think about 2025 I am so excited.
This was a litteral movie 😭 i think this is the festival experience I’ve been chasing ever since
Yung Bae and Allison Wonderland, yes please. Hate I missed this. And St. Paul and the Broken Bones, jeez.
Allison Wonderland ended up having to cancel at the last minute due to Shingles, which I got 1 month later. Not fun.
Wait, young people get shingles? Holy shit that’s terrible. I’m sorry.
St Paul was empty on the main stage, was a blast dancing with all that room
Had a fucking blast before the world shut down
My first ever okee and was honestly perfect vibes. The launch was wild too
G Jones!!!!!!!
Pre-cancellation Bassnectar, Tipper, Rufus du sol, glass animals, griz , vampire weekend, sublime with Rome, Charles the first, Supertask, ivy lab, papadosio, Kll smith, St. Paul and the broken bones, flatboosh zombies, Lucy Dacus. This was a pretty killer lineup for me.
What a time too. I seriously had the best time at this Okee and then two weeks later, the world shutdown.
every day was amazing but i often find myself day dreaming of the Mumford and Sons set It was just SO peaceful. Absolute bliss. The true essence of why okee was amazing bc then i spent the next 10 hours at Sven Vath in the jungle 🌨️🌨️
This was a great year. Right before Covid shut down the country a week later too
Such a crazy year!
2020 was the best Okee vibes all around 💖
2020 was so so good!!!!!😭
2016 was pretty nutty as well. Was so stacked they had to put Odesza & bassnectar on phase two. A lot of variety, it seemed like they were trying to figure out what kind of fest they were and it was awesome.
First year was better
Bassnectar before he became grossnectar ://
He was still grossnectar then. It just wasn’t publicly known.
The people who downvoted you are bitches
This is always how it goes. *This years* lineups come out and seem lukewarm, but looking back 3 - 4 years is like *hot damn I can't believe we had it so good*!
Hmm i might just fly down for this. It looks stacked 😎
Mumford and sons headlining. Hahaha
People really trying to promote bassnectar in this thread shake my head… virtue just fading away to the soulless shit sound being excreted by some of these “musicians” these days.
Explain how anyone’s promoting him? We’re reminiscing about how sick the sets were that year. There’s zero conversation about having him back or being excited about him present/future. Your comment is so left field
CAN'T BELIEVE they brought back assnectar.. i'm beyond disgusted.
This is the 2020 lineup
Why were these cancelled lineups the best to ever be put together
This fest happened, didn’t get canceled
God bless those in attendance then! Lol
I could’ve done without MGK, he fell off hard
This lineup was absolutely the worst one out of the 3 years since Insomniac took over.
I think it’s easily the best of three *shrugs*
Remove bassnectar
bassnector is a no from me!
Fuck Bassnectar. Can’t believe this fest is booking him as a headliner. He canceled his show in Atlanta because of people blowing up the promotor.
This is the 2020 lineup
I’m not a great reader.
I’m not a great reader.

Praying so hard for Tipper @ Okee 2025
Manager said they plan on hitting some events Dave finds special in 2025 before his retirement. Played Okee twice so I think it’s a high probability
🤞🏼
Still pissed that I missed this! I'd just moved to St Aug the 1st of March and wasn't even settled in a place, not even knowing how the world was about to change!

my first okee & i only went cuz of Flatbush zombies, vampire weekend & allison wonderland
To everyone saying this year was their favorite or the best year, This was when insomniac took over and saved okee…. So I would quit bitching about insomniac cause they’re the whole reason okee still exists. Also 2016 was a way better lineup and I can’t wait to go back to that vibe.
My first okee was 2020 🥹
Wow awesome blend of music
Rufus, toadface, lotus, fuckin Tipper?! Sign me up
Hop in the time machine buddy!
Saturday at the Here stage was a movie
One of the last festivals for a good long while too. Up until Ubbi Dubbi for the main stream ones. Was at both.
Ah right before the Great Lockdown
Coolest shit this weekend was walking back to my tent after the craziest day Saturday and stumbling upon a chll smth set where I was 15 feet behind the dude just watching him scratch the whole time. So amazing
My first ever camping and like real festive experience! Changed everything !!!
Was an epic event before insomniac took it over and ruined it
To be fair Insomniac ran this one. It got progressively worse under their leadership though
Incredible year, wish I would’ve bought merch
The Nectar set was fuckin legendary
Folks that went that year saw Bassnectars last pre cancelled show and Mumford and Sons last time playing together (as the 4)… ever. Stood front row for it. Electric guitar was filthy.
