Boy, That Show Has Really Fallen. Back In The Day It Was Awesome. Only Good Band I See There Now Is Unkle.

They bring awesome lineups every year. But I might've been fooled. I guess that promotional poster might be fake, and that might not be the lineup at all. They're seriously within a couple of weeks of tix goin on sale, and the official announcement of the lineup comes right before that. So we'll see how accurate it is.

If the lineup does prove to be accurate, it's really top-heavy. From what I've seen of past lineups, the headliners are great, but there are a lot of more unsung, underground acts that I look forward to seeing. I don't get that vibe with many of those this year. The headliners are pretty cool, but the lesser-known acts don't excite me much. But it's also a festival of discovery, so you'd leave there loving some acts you've never heard of before.

Sorry to be gullable, but that lineup I put up was fake. I wanted to believe it, because it was kickass. But here's the way more undferwhelming official lineup-

Not the worst thing I've ever seen, but I wouldn't be completely thrilled about it, just about a few of them.
