I noticed all the big question marks at the top. Any rumors as to who the real headliner is? For the money it seems like it could be a nice little festival. |

I've heard of like 5 of those bands. That's better than most festivals. |

In the far bottom right corner, it says "No D'Bags Allowed". Is that a band name, or a prerequisite for entry into the fest. If it's the latter, you'd have to wipe more than half of these tools off the line-up, starting with "Sublime with Rome".

Brand New and Atmoshpere do it for me. I think 80% lean towards doing this. |

As you move down the list some that looks like a solid lineup. Blink 182 is awful live because they aren't very good musicians to begin with. You can keep Rancid and Fall out Bags and Rome. Motorhead and public enemy would be cool to see. The bands I want to see: Brand New, Screeching Weasel, Yellowcard (saw them last november and they were excellent), Pennywise, The Broadways, Against Me, Gwar, Of course the amazing and awesome Lawrence Arms, Saves the Day, Bayside, Pennywise and Public Enemy have to hook up and collaborate on something. |

I did not go last year and regretted it afterwards. There are for sure some bands on there who would not be playing together but for a paycheck, and will be terrible. Depending how it the schedules shake out, I suppose. I'm sure all those ska bands are going to be lumped together on the same night, which is a shame for Toots and the Maytals. Bob Mould is great live. Peter Hook is still really good live. Rancid could potentially be great. |

White Mystery is the best band on that bill. Most of the rest of it is a nostalgia tour, the Gen-X version of Grand Funk Railroad and Wishbone Ash playing at Frontier Days. |

A rather disappointing start to my day to log on to the internet and find out that Blink 182 still exists. |

I doubt Mars will play with them. Maybe Michael Bland on drums. |

I have seen Rancid put on some amazing, furiously intense live shows. When they feel like performing, they are very, very good. |
