Despite its rocky start, New York's Meadows Festival will be back in 2017. A lot of people expected the event to be a shitshow after the Weeknd was replaced by J. Cole at the last minute, and the forecast predicted heavy rain. However, our very own Ryan Leas attended the fest and had a great time despite the fact that Kanye West had to cut his set short after finding out that his wife, Kim Kardashian West, was robbed at gunpoint in Paris. Founders Entertainment -- the team that puts on the annual Governors Ball Festival in addition to Meadows -- told Billboard that Meadows will be back next year and they'll be releasing the dates shortly.
