A Music Festival for You
You have just been named the General Manager of your very own Music Festival. You get to pick all the headliners. The only caveat is that you can only pick one musical act per decade. Your goal here isn't ticket sales or mass appeal. Your goal is to share your musical preferences with the world. A few notes: Every act is assumed to be at its absolute musical peak. If you pick The Beatles, they're all alive in their prime. If an act was huge across multiple decades, I made a judgment call on which decade was their peak. I might be wrong. Deal with it. The 2020s and 2010s are combined because we're not done with the 2020s yet. If I'm missing an act you want to include let me know and I'll add it.
