Bammy

No, I don't think he will be there maybe next year

Dang, all I'd really want to see is Das Racist, Jack White, ZZ Top and Alvin Risk... I hope the tickets aren't like last year where we have to go through Facebook. Should still be a fun time!

What I meant by "Bammy", was of course "Alabama Shakes".

Pretty good line-up.  That kicks last years line-up azz.  m83, santiogold, protugal, the man, jack white, and future islands is a prett good day.  Never heard of Skrillex or nervo.

checked out the names i didn't know....most of those appear to be DJ's or some shit....seems like the dance forest is really going to blow this year - just boring dj types, no interesting bands (like holy fuck for example)

edit: General Admission On Free Friday, August 24 at 12PM EDT on Ticketfly.com

also other than the no name dj types, pretty strong lineup i'd say

21st century a celebration of the lame

[imbecile]

I like it.  Jack White and Nas were enough to get me excited about this, the rest is just icing.  Hum must've been busy; maybe next year.

Now to figure out how to get tickets.  Anyone know if it's safe to say there will be some pre-sales(frees) like in years past?  I remember seeing them, but never bothered trying as I wasn't able to go regardless, so I'm not sure well they worked for boardies anyway.

I would rather them have no name dj's and save the money for better live acts.

Skrillex is probably free, considering he doesn't do anything on stage.

Otherwise, nice line up!
