Put those two bands on the Freefest lineup and I'd be all over the tickets.

Queue the TMUL hissy fit over what lame taste I have.


All I know it's a whole lot better than fucking HFStival that you have to pay for... Minus Dr. Dog and Avett Bros

They are the two best bands there...

He talked about how the boards are and how people would complain. 

hopefully he also noted how grateful the majority of boardees are.  we'll be among the 25k on hand on sept 10th, the whiners won't be.

First, stop kissing so much ass.  It's unbecoming.

Second, the whiners WILL be there, because even the biggest bitchers on this forum STILL SEEM TO GO TO FREEFEST.  That's probably the most annoying part about it. 

Look, this line-up didn't bowl me over, so you know what I might do?  Not go.  Seems pretty simple to me, but whatever.

For all of the good that the internet has brought to the world, the worst is giving trolls the impression that people give a shit about their input on things.

I don't think its whining to point out the lineup isn't as strong as previous years.

In any case, whats the word on VIP tickets?

Ditto, I think it's great that it's not all the same bands that are at every other festival this year, and is a chance to see the acts free.  Hope lots of folks get tix!

Too bad about the facebook requirement - not that an account is difficult to get, but it eliminates those of us who work for a living, will be at work on Friday, and whose employer blocks access to social media sites like facebook.  Guess I'm s.o.l.

Yup.  My thoughts, exactly.

It's a good line-up.  Have never seen Black Keys, TVOTR  or Patti Smith.

And you attend weekly, right??

oh.. i see.. we can only say that the lineup is great!


the fact that its free is irrelevant ..lots of live music- most actually- is free..the kennedy center has a free concert every night.

Since everyone else is bitching, Black Keys aren't a band that should be playing an ampitheatre.*

*I'll still be there and enjoy the hell out of it, slugging back 24oz Coronas.

P.S. Many of you still owe me a drink from last year.  ???

the odds of there being a meetup?  pretty good, i'll call it once we have set times.

odds of more than 4 people showing up?  who knows... (yada, i had a beer waiting for you at last year's meetup.  sorry, i don't deliver ;D)
