How bad will it be....
« on: April 13, 2004, 10:27:00 am »
...about as bad as I can imagine.
 
 They're rolling out the HFStival band announcements over this whole week -- three bands per day until Saturday, when tix go on sale.  What the hell, let's see how bad it is. (I think the only saving graces will be Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Modest Mouse, neither of which is enough to get me out there...)
 
 
 As of March 13:
 
 The Offspring
 O.A.R.
 Papa Roach
 Yeah Yeah Yeahs
 Lost Prophets
 P.O.D

Postal Service is a rumor....
 
 Now, if there's Modest Mouse, Postal Service, Yeah Yeah Yeahs....will that be worth $40 and a day with the kids at RFK?  I can't help thinking that those bands will come through and hit clubs....

yyy seems to come through fairly often, ditto gibbard bands. getting worried that mm will be here twice at stupid festivals and decide that's enough. i mean, we still haven't got a proper gbv show for earthquake glue

Not like dates or the full lineup but I just saw a billboard.com article like 2 days ago that confirmed Morissey, Flaming Lips, BRMC, String Cheese Incident, Modest Mouse, Gomez, Polyphonic Spree and someone else.
