And the rumours are rampant about Radiohead being added to the bill. Given that the Toronto VFest doesn't have an international band with the stature of RHCP or The Who, it's quite possible that another big band is going to be added to the bill.
 
 I'm just worried that Toronto's Olympic Island won't be big enough to contain Matt Bellamy's massive ego.  :)

Yes, every group contains noble souls and assholes??even Mexicans. But almost by definition, groups are assholes. The more one identifies with a group, the less likely they are to be interesting as individuals.

If someone is insecure ?? and hence feels the need for external recognition/validation ?? (read: Hoya) they will invest in a group.  Within the protecting structure of a group, the ??asshole? in people is able to emerge, without the risk of recrimination.  Each collective may have a mouthpiece for the group, but it is unlikely they are saying too much that anyone in the group doesn??t agree with.  Besides, individuals that no longer wish to be associated with the group can always leave.

I never said you needed to support Seth, I said for ME it's priceless to support him, the local scene, etc.  [It's akin to when I proclaim, "that jam band show would have been my nightmare."  Not a generic, irrefutable nightmare -- MY nightmare.]
 
 And not Seth personally, as in helping pave his driveway or send his kids through private school, but for his efforts and dedication to bring good music to this area and keep us 'on the map' musically.
 
 Yes, yes, he makes money, but I (and I think a lot of folks) see a passion to his work.
 
 God knows I don't expect that you'd go out of your way to support anyone outside your own home.
 
 
 Big huge summer festival in BALTIMORE?  Come on, that wasn't a no brainer by any stretch... [/b]

What exactly does "pre-show party and luxury round-trip transportation" entail?

Oops, just posted this as a new thread.  My bad.
 
 The transportation is a rented bus, generally a nicer, luxury bus with a bathroom and everything.  On Tap gets liquor licenses for the busses, so you can drink on the bus - BYOB.  The pre-show party is generally set up at a bar...but I have no idea what it will be since it is so early in the morning.
