Tungsten Gruvsten Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 Lots of awesome, lots of ghastly. Perfect festival! hehehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmic ChrisC Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 OK nice new thread. So as mentioned in the rumour thread, hooray to Maiden and Cooper on the 7th. Ollie just told me about Fishbone and Melvins...however, they are on at pretty much the same time on the 4th. WHAT? WHY?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmic ChrisC Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 Skrillex and Mastodon on at the same time on the 14th. Grrr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouche Posted April 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 The RFID bracelet is going to get some people talking about privacy concerns. Other festivals connect them up with your credit card or debit card and, you're entire experience can be paid for with these. Neat technology if they're going that route, but I'm sure some people won't want everything they buy tracked, or showing up on receipts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmic ChrisC Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 That bracelet will be transferable...could someone just steal it...what if I get rolled for my bracelet? I suppose it can probably be inactivated if lost or stolen right?I miss tickets already. If I was not able to go one day, I'd give my ticket away. Giving the bracelet not so easy...gotta plan how to get it back etc. Urgh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AD Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 Seems this site is getting the updates published quicker in case you need to know RIGHT NOW. I'm sure Bouche will post the complete list once all the press releases go out etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flipzoso Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 Very, very few bands I'd be interested in checking out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Not Bob Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 It doesn't look like I will be able to get my usual full pass this year, so I am actually very happy to see this set list, as it looks like a good year for me to take off. I might go to Tedeschi-Trucks, but don't really feel like I am missing too much. Even Alice Cooper looks to be playing a shorter set earlier in the evening.

dave-O Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 Charles Bradley is a religious experience.The rest of the line up looks pretty weak to me, compared to years past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Booche Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 (edited) Someone has to say it: BlechtronicafestAlthough it appears to me Big Wreck is coming! Akron Family followed by Billy Bragg the first night, The Wooden Sky, Deep Dark Woods, Maiden, Zeus and Snoop are the same day, Plants And Animals , The Sheepdogs and I might as well check out this Charles Bradley fuckhead if its a religious experience. I havent had one of those since the Gorge in 98. That will do pig. That will do. Edited April 25, 2012 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bagochips Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 The arrogance of the pricing is just beyond me. They have just presented us with what is probably the least inspiring line-up in the last 15 years, and then they want to nearly double the price?
