Saturday, May 26th:
Björk, Arcade Fire, Manu Chao Radio Bemba Sound System, M.I.A., Citizen Cope, Neko Case, The Hold Steady, Grizzly Bear, Ghostland Observatory, Electrelane, Two Gallants, The Slip, Loney, Dear, Aqueduct, The Thermals, Viva Voce, The Blow, Gabriel Teodros

To me…this lineup looks fantastic. Hell, I’d go for Bjork, Beastie Boys, and The Slip alone — but every other band is a bonus and there are plenty of other must-see’s on this bill. Fantastic, I say!

    If you don’t like the lineup, don’t go and don’t bitch. There are wonderful bands playing. If you simply opened your mind and expanded your musical repertoire beyond Metallica and Madonna, then you may find something you really like. Also, music is about expansion. It is created to make our simple lives as humans more bearable and understandable. That is why I cannot comprehend the thrashing most people are giving this year’s fest. I’ll be there in the front row jumpin up and down to the BBoy trance and you’ll be sitting at home beating something that should be left alone and singing to Michael Jackson. Thanks for the extra elbow room!

    There are a lot of names I don’t know also..but am willing to check out, and maybe learn they are amazing..isn’t that the beauty of festivals, instead of one-headliner concerts?

    I’m personally stoked on the line-up and happy that the organizers added some diversity … yeah so maybe this will draw a different crowd, and I can only see this happening to the better – people who enjoy different genres of really good music and love to dance – now that’s love. Bjoerk, Michael Franti & Spearhead, Manu Chao, M.I.A., Ozomatli, Mix Master Mike, Blackalicious … I’m so glad there’s more than Indie Rock … it’s good, just the performers mentioned above got a bunch more flavour!!!! Excited to Be There!!!
