Giuseppe Zangara Posted March 18, 2006 Report Posted March 18, 2006 The Smoking Popes are still around?
Annabelle Posted March 18, 2006 Report Posted March 18, 2006 there's about 4 artists there id like to see. about 3 more i'd tolerate. and the rest i'd give a shit about.
haVoc Posted March 18, 2006 Report Posted March 18, 2006 Sitting out on a lawn with a bunch of dirtbags listening to Kanye West? I'll pass....
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted March 18, 2006 Report Posted March 18, 2006 deadboy & the Elephantmen HOLY FUCKING DOGSHIT
Dogbert Posted March 18, 2006 Report Posted March 18, 2006 Headlining the show will be Timmy and the Lords of the Underworld.

Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted March 19, 2006 Report Posted March 19, 2006 I might try sneaking in, but there's no way I'm paying a full ticket price to watch Dax Riggs play his indie type stuff for half an hour.

Team Mates of State Of Montreal 15 bands I wouldn't mind seeing. Too bad I don't live anywhere near Chicago. Wilco, RHCP, Flaming Lips, and The Go! Team sound good. Of Montreal and the Shins do nothing for me. My feelings on Kanye West have been made clear. Blues Traveler was cool when I was in 5th grade. Sleater-Kinney is allegedly great but I don't care for that riot-grrl nonsense.
k thx Posted March 19, 2006 Report Posted March 19, 2006 The Go! Team are phenomenal live. I highly reccomend.
C Dubya 04 Posted March 21, 2006 Report Posted March 21, 2006 Disco Biscuits kick ass. Iron & Wine is an enjoyable experience. Reverend Horton Heat is good for shits and giggles. I'd like to see them along with the above mentioned bands (particularly Wilco).
snuffbox Posted March 23, 2006 Report Posted March 23, 2006 Did anybody here go to this last year? The website's schedule made it look the bands had some rather short set times.
A Happy Medium Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 I would have to drive 1000 miles to go to this. The good news is that I know how to navigate Chicago's public transport system. I like Grant Park. I can stay at my Grandma's house. Perfect location for an August festival too. Right on the lake. Even during a terrible heatwave, the temperature should only get up to about ninety. Another good reason to go....I haven't been home in two years. The line up is good enough for a square like me.
Jorge Gorgeous Posted March 28, 2006 Report Posted March 28, 2006 Cot damn. How much do tickets for this thing usually run?
