    I don’t think there’s any way around it. I must go.

  2. Maureen Says:

    Hey, I got a ticket today…if you average it out to $50 a day, that’s not a bad deal!

  3. mike Says:

    (or as they mention on the website ~ $1 per band)

    I MUST GO!

  4. Maureen Says:

    Dude I know, either way you look at it, it’s a good deal!

  5. DJ Nizzle Says:

    2 things.

    1) Let turn the bold on for Q.O.T.S.A. (That is Queens of the Stone Age in case you are retarded)

    2) What the f**k is Poi Dog Pondering or “POI DOG” as their fans say. doing om the list? That band is so EXPIRED. Maybe Natale Merchant and Rusted Root should get on the bill as well. Better yet those artista should start their own tour named SNOOZE-A-PALOOZA.

    3) Where is the hardcore gangster rap? This event is the only time suburban kids feel safe enough to see one of those acts. Those buzzed college kids really enjoy resonding to to “Everybody in the house say HO-OO, C’MON NOW…SAY Ho. Ho.”
