[set1914]

I am hoping that the Violator (Lou) puts the band together (Motley Lou) and plays.

I really hate Apatow/Seth Rogan/Russell Brand/Jonah Hill/"they're comedic GENIUSES"-type of comedies.  So, I thoroughly enjoyed that one.  I bet it's even better in extended/uncensored form.

"One little change has a ripple effect and it effects everything else. Like a butterfly floats its wings and Tokyo explodes or there's a tsunami, in like, you know, somewhere."
"Yes, exactly. You step on the bug and the f****** internet is never invented."
"Oh, then you'll have to talk to girls with your mouth."
"Yeah. No. I was more concerned about bigger consequences like not being born."
"Yeah. No. I don't care about that."

Maybe they will get Kevin Shields to crawl back out of the hole he seems to have crawled back into?


Yeah, wishful thinking.

[Fooer]

why are there no leaks?!?!?  any guesses? gimme 3 guesses?

mine are:

Pavement
LCD Soundsystem
Sharon Jones & Dap Kings

No one is too close to the action going down.  Pavement was supposed to play in DC September 25.  Dunno what happened but I see them at Virgin Fest.

They don't let him out in public anymore since he performed "Bomb the Pentagon" at the club mere months before 9/11.

Speaking of which, I'm pumped that Richard Branson is announcing the line-up:

"Hello, darlings...I'm coming to you now from Virgin Airship I, the Virgin space shuttle.  We're just finishing our final approach and are about to land on The Mall in Washington.  WATCH OUT FOR THAT MONUMENT!  Kidding, I'm kidding.  Get the champagne ready, Rico!..."

They can  replace the DJ stage with a line-up of artists from HammondBeat, Tru Thoughts, Truth and Soul, Daptone Records, etc labels.  Since, quite frankly the Retro Funk scene is the only one happening at the moment. And of course let me DJ between act

^I like this idea.

Stream is up on the site! 15 minutes to go.

1. Joan Jett
2. Crappy 90's band (Pavement, FNM, Soundgarden could all fit this bill)
3. Something WARPED tour-esque, for the kids

aren't you the guy that was the total asshole about the free 30th Anniversary show?

you know, I have never censored or banned anyone in the entire history of this forum

you might be the first

I'm pretty sure STP, Joan Jett, and Temper Trap are playing, and I'd bet they throw in Slash.

Phoenix is on the West Coast the day before.
