The Lineup Of A Summer Music Festival As Guessed By A Mom

"I shouldn't have agreed to this."

I showed my mom various acts from the 2014 Lollapalooza lineup — including some who I've admittedly never heard of myself — and asked her to identify them to the best of her ability. These were the results of her attempt:

Mom: Are any of them country? Otherwise I'm screwed.

Me: Nope. Good luck!

Mom: OK, is she in a band or is it just her?

Me: Just her.

Mom: Give me the first letter of her name.

Me: "I."

Mom: Irene!

Me: No. Her name's Iggy Azalea.

Mom: Oh, I was gonna say Iggy.

"Steven Osbourne."

Mom: The other guy's covered up, maybe he'd give me a clue.

Me: He's not even the guy. It's the other guy.

Mom: What does it start with?

Me: "S."

Mom: Steven... Osbourne.

(Skrillex.)

"Oui."

Mom: Second letter?

Me: "OU."

Mom: Oui!

Me: No.

Mom: Couldn't they be French black men?

Me: I mean. Yes.

Mom: Diana Ross. I know it's not her, but she's got the big hair like her.

Me: No.

Mom: Give me an initial.

Me: "L."

Mom: Why aren't any of them Shakira? Is it a band name or a person name?

Me: It's a person name, but a weird name.

Mom: Weirder than Shakira?

Me: Her name is Lorde.

Mom: Ohhh. That's Madonna's daughter.

Me: No.

"Nope."

Mom: Well, he looks like somebody, but I don't know.... Nope. Smoky Robinson, that's who he makes me thinks of.

Me: No.

Mom: You're looking at your mother who knows people from the 70s and 80s.

Me: Yeah. He's Childish Gambino.

Mom: I shouldn't have agreed to this.

"Curtis."
