Been on the front rail, in the middle, and in the far back at a bunch of 40-80k festivals. Generally prefer to be on the front rail for the acts I enjoy, which is relatively easy to do. Made eye contact with artists, head nods, setlists, picks, etc. Prefer to be in the middle for acts I don't know that well, to feed off the energy of the those around me who do know the music well. Also enjoy smaller acts in smaller venues, but that's not what this thread is about.

I've seen hundreds of acts, but the bigger ones would include Rush, Gorillaz x2, Radiohead, The Police, Rage Against the Machine, System of a Down, Jack White x2, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Paul McCartney, The Who x2, Muse x2, Snoop Dog, Tom Petty, Eric Clapton, Roger Waters x3, Nick Mason, The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan x2, Neil Young x2, Kendrick Lamar, Questlove (DJ set), Post Malone (side stage early in the day in 2016 before he got huge), The Zombies, Metallica, Lana del Rey, Cypress Hill, The Killers, Eminem, Queens of the Stone Age x2, Elton John, Paul Simon, James Taylor x2, The Smashing Pumpkins, Sarah McLachlan, Jack Johnson, Alanis Morissette, etc etc etc.

Going to a festival in July mainly to be front row for Weezer, Foo Fighters, and The Smile, plus gonna see Shania Twain, Robert Plant and Alison Krauss, Pitbull, Ludacris, etc etc etc.
