It Starts Now: Volume Four - 2012 Lollapalooza Headliner Speculation

[nikkirkpatrick]

Jane's Addiction vs Bon Iver? Wtf is that shit?

[oasisfan]

A way that would make the crowd evenly split that involves Jane's Addiction.

[nikkirkpatrick]

it would be a way to ensure that day didn't sell out, that's a fucking certainty.

[oasisfan]

I agree.

[oasisfan]

now a crazy prediction

Bruce Springsteen * David Bowie * Prince
Radiohead * U2 * Jane's Addiction

[El Goodo]

LOL, that is as advertised.

"Festivals with U2 as the #5."

[oasisfan]

I honestly had no idea how to rank them with a festival like that.

[nikkirkpatrick]

U2 is probably the biggest band in the world.

[oasisfan]

U2 is probably the biggest band in the world.

but against Bowie, Bruce, and Prince? Yeah got Radiohead beat even though Lolla goers would probably go see Radiohead over U2

[nikolajz1]

but against Bowie, Bruce, and Prince? Yeah got Radiohead beat even though Lolla goers would probably go see Radiohead over U2

Prince being bigger than U2....lol.

[90sRevival]

I just hope that Tosh goes through with his "One Hit Wonder" Festival

[oasisfan]

Prince being bigger than U2....lol.

its arguable.

[oasisfan]

get Krentist in here, he loves Prince I'm sure he could make a valid argument supporting it.

[concertgoer]

Prince being bigger than U2....lol.

I am still trying to get my head around the idea of U2 being a 5

[concertgoer]

get Krentist in here, he loves Prince I'm sure he could make a valid argument supporting it.

He does, but he would still say that U2 would be #1

[oasisfan]

I am still trying to get my head around the idea of U2 being a 5

i said it was a crazy prediction.

[MadBird11]

I am still trying to get my head around the idea of U2 being a 5

Must be 1992.

[90sRevival]

Prince being bigger than U2....lol.

that's like ACL booking Stevie Wonder over Coldplay.. I mean come on

[nikkirkpatrick]

get Cheney in here, he loves going to war, I'm sure he could make a valid argument supporting it.
.

[MadBird11]

that's like ACL booking Stevie Wonder over Coldplay.. I mean come on

No it's not.

[Krentistthedentist]

get Krentist in here, he loves Prince I'm sure he could make a valid argument supporting it.

No, I really couldn't.
I saw Prince in a basketball arena on a Friday night 15 minutes from Manhattan and it wasn't even close to full.
I saw U2 pack soldier field on a Tuesday.

[MadBird11]

I saw that too. The U2 one, anyway. I'd be amazed if they ever do another festival ever again.

[concertgoer]

Yeah it's for sure a long shot, especially now that festivals can sell out without massive headliners like U2

[WretchedSkye2113]

GUYS, THEY CAN'T FIT THE CLAW ON THE NORTH STAGE.

[MadBird11]

^That too.

[Krentistthedentist]

I saw that too. The U2 one, anyway. I'd be amazed if they ever do another festival ever again.

You have a kid?

[MadBird11]

No, but I had a free ticket.

[Krentistthedentist]

They're a pretty good live band.

[MadBird11]

They we're alright, but you can't beat free.

[concertgoer]

Yeah they don't hold a candle to Bob Dylan's live show

[MadBird11]

That was low, CG.

[TonyPicker690]

No, it means they played in 2007 and therefore have an artist page like every other artist who has played the festival.

Don't check this much, but that was the point I was trying to make..

[TonyPicker690]

Is there any possibility that the Black Keys WON'T headline next year??

[concertgoer]

A slim one

[nikolajz1]

Metallica- Red Hot Chili Peppers- Lil' Wayne
System of a Down- The Black Keys- Bon Iver

Metallica vs. The Black Keys
RHCP vs. Bon Iver
Lil Wayne vs. System of a Down

[MadBird11]

We'll get the Chilis. We'll get the Keys.

Can't be worse than this year... Can it?

Edit: Eh, I guess Niko thinks it will.

[nikolajz1]

Next years Lolla headliners are gonna be shitty as hell. I dont have a good feeling.

BRING BACK COLDPLAY

[concertgoer]

Metallica- Red Hot Chili Peppers- Lil' Wayne
System of a Down- The Black Keys- Bon Iver

Metallica vs. The Black Keys
RHCP vs. Bon Iver
Lil Wayne vs. System of a Down

Needs moar Fleet Foxes and No Doubt

[Krentistthedentist]

Metallica- Red Hot Chili Peppers- Lil' Wayne
System of a Down- The Black Keys- Bon Iver

Metallica vs. The Black Keys
RHCP vs. Bon Iver
Lil Wayne vs. System of a Down


Any divergence from my recommendations is inherently wrong.

[MadBird11]

Lots of booze and would depend on the undercard, but yes.

[Krentistthedentist]

I can't imagine even the most fervent Weezy haters choosing to see CHOAD over him.
Except Wretched, maybe, but that's to be expected from Peoria.

[nikolajz1]

id go home early?

[WretchedSkye2113]

I can't imagine even the most fervent Weezy haters choosing to see CHOAD over him.
Except Wretched, maybe, but that's to be expected from Peoria.

read that as "Weezer" haters and i was like "soad vs weezer? what an odd pairing."
but yeah, fuck lil wayne. System wins that by far.
and am not the only one on here who would make that choice. at all.

[concertgoer]

I would watch SOAD with you Wretched

[nikkirkpatrick]

I would watch SOAD with you Wretched

same

[Krentistthedentist]

I would watch SOAD with you Wretched

This was your big chance to put your hatred of metal to good use.

[WretchedSkye2113]

would also guess that at least Stelles and Beefy would join.

also, metal. lulz.

[nikkirkpatrick]

i'll be sneaking in two 1/5's of ouzo so we can celebrate the armenian genocide.

[Thisismyname]

Hell, even I would see soad over weezy.

[concertgoer]

would also guess that at least Stelles and Beefy would join.

also, metal. lulz.

Yeah they are no metal band

[WretchedSkye2113]

self-titled and Toxicity had nu/alt-metal elements,
but by Steal This Album! they were just radio hard/alt rock.
and Mezmerize/Hypnotize is more experimental/progressive rock than anything else.

[Krentistthedentist]

maybe I should've used the quotation marks.

[MadBird11]

I'd rather get drunk and jump in the fountain, to be honest.

[WretchedSkye2113]

maybe I should've used the quotation marks.

a tilde would've been the most appropriate thing. and probably still got your point across.
disagreeable though it may be.

[Krentistthedentist]

I'd rather get drunk and jump in the fountain, to be honest.

Weezy would be a way better show to see drunk FWIW
Much better field, too. Unless you like fat meth head chicks.

[MadBird11]

No doubt, but I dislike him.

[WretchedSkye2113]

you're gonna hate me for arguing this-

but SoaD would probably take the South field.

[Krentistthedentist]

Well they're a fucking terrible band so I hope they don't take any field.

[concertgoer]

I really don't think either act will be at Lolla next year

[WretchedSkye2113]

that's a different matter.

but regardless of who would have the bigger crowd (i would think SoaD would, being "reunited" and all),
SoaD has the rock crowd thing going for it. They would get the area with the bigger spaces, a la the Muse 2011 justification.
or for the sake of safety ie RATM 08.

[Krentistthedentist]

that's a different matter.

This was a stupid fucking idea, though, so I'm not sure it'll set any precedents, even at this festival.

[90sRevival]

is it at all possible for Coldplay to come back? they'll still be well into their tour at that point, so could we see back-to-back?

[symbionese]

that'll happen.

[Krentistthedentist]

One can only hope.

[Caseysitsallgood]

Is there any possibility that the Black Keys WON'T headline next year??

think I read somewhere they've got a new album in December?

[xbadx1233]

think I read somewhere they've got a new album in December?


*Slow motion yelling of "NOOOOOOOOOOOOO"*

[TonyPicker690]

think I read somewhere they've got a new album in December?

Yeah, it's called El Camino. Which they will probably follow with a tour.

[TonyPicker690]

http://onethirtybpm.com/news/paul-simon-preps-graceland-box-set-tour/

Paul Simon performing Graceland? Most likely to be at Coachella or Bonnaroo, but one can only hope.

[symbionese]

in related news: vampire weekend now obsolete.

Yes please.

[concertgoer]

That would be great

[xbadx1233]

Sub for Radiohead?

[symbionese]

Sub for Radiohead?

first day listening to music?

[Audiobully]

Wait, someone thinks Paul Simon would be a sub??

[Thisismyname]

Would make a lot of sense in the Buffalo Springfield/David Byrne slot at Roo IMO.

[austincarstens]

(i would think SoaD would, being "reunited" and all)

Whatever day Wayne would perform would be the first day to sell out. He has way more fans and several people would go to Lolla just to see him. Just like Eminem.

[Krentistthedentist]

At first I thought you were saying "The day Lolla books Lil Wayne will be the day it sells out!" and I was gonna be like "Uhhh, might be a little late for that, bro"

[MadBird11]

If we're going to throw an old guy on stage, let it either be Paul Simon or Neil Young. Preferably the latter, but I'm sure we'd take either one of them.

[IAmScareMongering]

I'd rather see Paul Simon p/ Graceland than Neil Young.

[symbionese]

Whatever day Wayne would perform would be the first day to sell out. He has way more fans and several people would go to Lolla just to see him. Just like Eminem.

john wayne is dead. has been for several years.

[johnd12751]

Kanye West * Red Hot Chili Peppers * The Cure
The Black Keys * Death Cab For Cutie * Modest Mouse

[xbadx1233]

0/6

[Krentistthedentist]

I see at least 3 bands there better than the one represented in your avatar.

[Unlikely Japan]

0/6

0/69

[Krentistthedentist]

Can't wait for xbad to make another hilarious pitchfork joke to defend his pure shit taste.

[concertgoer]

Yeah I really cant see someone not liking at least one or two of those acts

[sleeping]

Even though there haven't been any true leaks I think it's pretty likely that we already "know" half the headliners: The Black Keys, RHCP, and Jane's Addiction. If I were going to bet I'd say all three had very, very good odds.

[arbee]

I see at least 3 bands there better than the one represented in your avatar.

Who is in his avatar?

[Krentistthedentist]

Looks like Muse.

[concertgoer]

Who is in his avatar?

I was also wondering that

[MadBird11]

john wayne is dead. has been for several years.

Oh, I see what you did there.


0/6

Actually, that was the best somewhat realistic prediction made in several pages. So, fuck you.

[xbadx1233]

K I lied, RHCP and The Cure I would see, but still...

This is like one giant game of your-favorite-band-sucks

[MadBird11]

Only cause it does.

[xbadx1233]

That made no sense, but ok

[oasisfan]

Muse sucks is what he's saying.

[MadBird11]

Muse sucks is what he's saying.

You'll go places eventually kid.

[symbionese]

you mean like stanford?

[xbadx1233]

You'll go places eventually kid.

Well maybe we'll agree on something someday.

Who did you end up seeing Friday night then?

[oasisfan]

You'll go places eventually kid.

thank you, i think.

[Krentistthedentist]

K I lied, RHCP and The Cure I would see, but still...

This is like one giant game of your-favorite-band-sucks

Oh man. You just can't get it right, can you?

[MadBird11]

Well maybe we'll agree on something someday.

Who did you end up seeing Friday night then?

lol


thank you, i think.

Wasn't trying to be sarcastic. You're welcome.

[90sRevival]

I'm feelin' a Sigur Ros and Coldplay year. oh, and Third Eye Blind as well

[austincarstens]

Even though there haven't been any true leaks I think it's pretty likely that we already "know" half the headliners: The Black Keys, RHCP, and Jane's Addiction. If I were going to bet I'd say all three had very, very good odds.

I'm not so sure about Jane's this year...I tweeted at him and asked him if Jane's was a lock for lolla.

Now, If any of you have seen his tweets they aren't completely coherent. This was his reply: perryfarrell: 'NO but if you start a petition'

I'm not sure if that even means anything, but I though I would share.

[JML]

Like you said, Perry's tweets mean jack shit.

I think they're the biggest lock there is. I'd be shocked if they weren't there next year.

[Audiobully]

I loves Jane's Addiction so that's good news to me.

[MadBird11]

I might see Jane's again depending on who they're up against.

[JML]

I might see Jane's again depending on who they're up against.

Pretty much how I feel. I wouldn't mind seeing them but I wouldn't really be excited for them either.

[nikolajz1]

In all seriousness at this point, Jane's should be a subheadliner.

[sleeping]

Jane's headlined Chilepalooza last year so they'll probably do the same at Brazilapalooza this year. That's the only reason I can think that they might not headline in Chicago. But they'll probably do both.

[Audiobully]

Just need a full time bassist.

[Broc1123]

So why again is Jane's the closest thing to a lock?

I just don't really see it. Like is this new album really gonna excite people enough to justify bringing them back so soon? I guess Dave Sitek is helping out with it but still.

I think the Black Keys are probably the closest thing to a lock. Probably will be 3rd on the lineup too depending on how this album does.

[Caseysitsallgood]

if the Keys' album comes out in December like I've seen, that'd be the perfect amount of time for it to get big if it's any good and them to tour. I could definitely see them as a top 4 in 2012.

[sleeping]

Just need a full time bassist.
Isn't Chris Chaney back in the band full-time?

[MadBird11]

So why again is Jane's the closest thing to a lock? 1

I just don't really see it. Like is this new album really gonna excite people enough to justify bringing them back so soon? 2 I guess Dave Sitek is helping out with it but still.

I think the Black Keys are probably the closest thing to a lock. 3 Probably will be 3rd on the lineup too depending on how this album does.

1. Because they founded the festival, they are in the mix every year. It's just that some years are more probable than others.

2. Considering it's the first album since 2003, yes, but does it really matter? Why wouldn't Perry want to put his name back in the common music fan's mind, especially when it sold out last year and (assuming they continue down the same (shitty) path) could easily do it again next year?

3. The Black Keys have been confirmed to play odd numbered years for the next 10 years. Better start memorizing Howlin' For You lyrics.

[xbadx1233]

Jane's has played once at Chicagopalooza. No reason to think they'll be back soon without any hype. And we all know Perry has little to do with booking. It's not like they will waste a headlining spot on Jane's just because Perry wants to play. There are lots of bands that would generate more hype and sell more tickets in that spot.

I think you mean even years with Keys. Cuz they didn't play 09 or 11 and next year is 12.

[TonyPicker690]

You're good. I can't tell if this is sarcasm or serious

I can't tell if this post is sarcasm or serious!

[TonyPicker690]

Could Jane's possibly do what APC did this year? Announced as a headliner, but in a sub-spot. I know this is Perry's fest, but c'mon I saw Jane's crowd in '09

[MadBird11]

Well shit.

Points one and two still stand though. Honestly, how can you go from a headliner to a sub in just two years, especially when you've been active during that time?

[JML]

It's not like they will waste a headlining spot on Jane's just because Perry wants to play. There are lots of bands that would generate more hype and sell more tickets in that spot.


Maybe I'm really overestimating JA's popularity in 2011/2012 but I think they can generate as much hype/ticket sales as MMJ did.

[Broc1123]

Yeah I don't think they would. I mean it'd be somewhat close considering MMJ had played 2 shows in Chicago in the year prior to Lolla. I just don't understand why they'd book Jane's besides the fact that Jane's started the original fest. I mean Coachella and Roo aren't gonna book them are they?

[Krentistthedentist]

Maybe I'm really overestimating JA's popularity in 2011/2012 but I think they can generate as much hype/ticket sales as MMJ did.

They could.

[sleeping]

I just don't understand why they'd book Jane's besides the fact that Jane's started the original fest. I mean Coachella and Roo aren't gonna book them are they?
Funny that you'd mention the festival where Perry Farrell has performed in some capacity every year since 2001.

[Krentistthedentist]

And how many of those times was he there with JA?
Remind me, please.

[Broc1123]

Yeah I'm pretty sure at least the past 5 years have been a DJ set. Maybe Satellite Party earlier on?

[Thisismyname]

Janes Addiction more or less saved Coachella from extinction.

I don't think they'd bother booking them at this point, but there's no denying the band/perry has a huge connection to the fest.

[concertgoer]

And how many of those times was he there with JA?
Remind me, please.

once

[Krentistthedentist]

They are a 2 at Coachella.
Still 4-6 at Lolla.

[symbionese]

jane's?

[Krentistthedentist]

Correct.

[symbionese]

you're off a slot on both. maybe even two at coachella.

[Krentistthedentist]

Eek.
That might be a little harsh. To clarify, I mean 2 for the day, not the weekend.

[symbionese]

sorry. i thought you meant time slot.

you're right -- though i could see them dropping to a three at coachella.

[Krentistthedentist]

That's what happens when you put out a song like "Unstoppable Force"

[austincarstens]

Jane's isn't good enough to headline anymore, but it makes total sense that they would. No one would be surprised to see them there. I bet either on Friday or Sunday.

[MadBird11]

Great analysis right there. (IRT carstens)

[MadBird11]

I was about to say, didn't we just have this argument Broc?

[johnd12751]

i know that they are a chicago band and all, but seeing wilco's tour dates with 4 shows in chicago in mid december, i am doubting they will be at lolla next summer

[nikolajz1]

i know that they are a chicago band and all, but seeing wilco's tour dates with 4 shows in chicago in mid december, i am doubting they will be at lolla next summer

MMJ

[IAmScareMongering]

i know that they are a chicago band and all, but seeing wilco's tour dates with 4 shows in chicago in mid december, i am doubting they will be at lolla next summer

And after tomorrow, each one will be sold out. If Lolla wants to have them, it would work.

[90sRevival]

i know that they are a chicago band and all, but seeing wilco's tour dates with 4 shows in chicago in mid december, i am doubting they will be at lolla next summer

shouldn't that just encourage them to play Lolla? either way, I don't think they miss out

[El Goodo]

Yeah, I don't think these shows have any bearing one way or the other on whether or not they play Lolla. I'd guess that is up to Wilco if they play this year or not. I'm sure there is a spot for them if they want it.

[90sRevival]

in all seriousness, could blink-182 see a headline spot ?

[MadBird11]

i know that they are a chicago band and all, but seeing wilco's tour dates with 4 shows in chicago in mid december, i am doubting they will be at lolla next summer

heh



in all seriousness, could blink-182 see a headline spot ?

Unfortunately

[El Goodo]

Probably a 4-5-6, I'd guess.

[90sRevival]

Unfortunately

I don't know. their live album from '01 or so is pretty great. even though they aren't at all the band I used to be, I bet they could put on an alright show

[90sRevival]

'swhat I was thinking

Not really my point, but alright.

[Krentistthedentist]

Shows don't even come close to satiating the demand for Wilco in this market and they could be a cheap alternative (with broad appeal) to some faggot south stage headliner.

[MadBird11]

Awful username.

lololol

[90sRevival]

you're welcome :)

oasis is pretty good, but would say they're your favorite music group ..? like ever?

[nikkirkpatrick]

thread is in the toilet.

[ChiCity]

My Prediction:

Metallica * Linkin Park * Oasis * Mumford * DMX Revisited * Pretty Lights

I would go to that fest.

[concertgoer]

I miss DMX

[Krentistthedentist]

If I could see DMX Oasis and Metallica I would go.

[oasisfan]

Nope I listen to Nickelback, Kid Rock, Creed, and My Chemical Romance, more than I listen to Oasis.

[concertgoer]

If I could see DMX Oasis and Metallica I would go.

DMX was my favorite rapper circa 98-99

[Krentistthedentist]

Who is your favorite rapper now?

[xbadx1233]

Nope I listen to Nickelback, Kid Rock, Creed, and My Chemical Romance, more than I listen to Oasis.

You forgot Godsmack and Puddle of Mudd

[concertgoer]

Who is your favorite rapper now?

Come on now

[Caseysitsallgood]

Come on now

Snow?

[MadBird11]

Gotta be Based God.

[JML]

Snow?

Well played.

[MadBird11]

No it wasn't.

[JML]

Well

I looked up the lyrics to Snow's song and it wasn't "Come On Now" like I thought it was
Still decently played

[littlelionman]

Just leave the fucking board and come back with a different name.
Seriously. Once you get a clue and maybe some taste you'll thank me.

I love that you, amongst others here, are short-sighted enough to assume that I have poor taste because I mentioned one band that you happen to not like. As for my name... yes, it is a reference to a Mumford and Sons song....but it is one that has strong personal meaning for me, so I went with it. That is more than I can say for a pointless reference to a scene from an episode of the Office being used as a message board name. Spend less time acting like you're superior to people making their first posts on this board, and more time focusing on your own insecurities, and maybe you can stop being such a miserable asshole. :)

do you know Krentist?

[littlelionman]

But yes, if they play they will headliner.

as much as i love them, i would still rather them be a subheadliner... headlining spots are better suited for more established acts. you're probably right though.

Hmmm, funny that you should single me out since I was the only one that offered anything in the way of real advice. Also, people like you have time and time again come on here with the pop-psychology "you're just a miserable asshole" bullshit. It's never worked before, and it's certainly not going to work coming from anyone psychologically shallow enough to experience a "strong personal" connection with Little Lion Man. So don't even bother.

[littlelionman]

do you know Krentist?

no, but i've spent enough time on message boards to know his type...unfortunately

[oasisfan]

I feel like I need to listen to Little Lion Man a few more times to see if I have a strong personal connection to it.

[ChiCity]

Ibut it is one that has strong personal meaning for me, so I went with it.

lulz worst decision hehe DUMB

you were the one that inferred that i have bad taste (based on one band) and that i should leave the board and change my name. i would say that out of all of the negative posts that I read regarding my post, yours was the most vicious, so I don't see why I wouldn't focus my response towards your post. I did add "amongst others" in my response though, so I wasn't exactly singling you out.

[arbee]

I like Mumford & Sons and i would still take Krentist over littlelionman

[Krentistthedentist]

bystanders: do you think it was helpful for me to suggest littlelionman comes back with a new name? how should littlelionman expect to be treated as long as he/she/it has that username?

[oasisfan]

I liked Mumford & Sons til I heard Little Lion Man and The Cave for about the 18971247591234576th time.

[littlelionman]

I like Mumford & Sons and i would still take Krentist over littlelionman

but would you attack either of us for our names just because you're bored and have nothing better to do with your time?

[oasisfan]

bystanders: do you think it was helpful for me to suggest littlelionman comes back with a new name? how should littlelionman expect to be treated as long as he/she/it has that username?

does this mean I don't have the worst username on the board right now?

[littlelionman]

why does it matter? it's a message board name... :confused:

[Krentistthedentist]

At least Oasis is actually a good band.

[Krentistthedentist]

why does it matter? it's a message board name... :confused:

Yes. A name that you will be mercilessly mocked for.

[ChiCity]

Come on guys....quit hating this guy over his user name....if there's a reason to hate him it is obviously for his shit taste in music.

Also....Oasisfan and Krentis have no grounds to make fun of anyone's user name.

[oasisfan]

I'll take that, mainly cuz I feel like a some point ppl will just accept the name.

[ChiCity]

why does it matter? it's a message board name... :confused:

for real dude quit being a little bitch

[Krentistthedentist]

Come on guys....quit hating this guy over his user name....if there's a reason to hate him it is obviously for his shit taste in music.

I never "hated him"
I just told him in plain language that he should probably go back to the drawing board if he wants to not be mocked every time he posts.

[oasisfan]

I never made fun of his name, just said I need to listen to the song a few more times.

[littlelionman]

Yes. A name that you will be mercilessly mocked for.

and why should anyone mock someone for their message board name? it's fairly clear that you were just being one of the mockers, and were not really concerned for my reputation on this board. quit acting like you were doing me a favor. :mad:

[arbee]

I liked Mumford & Sons til I heard Little Lion Man and The Cave for about the 18971247591234576th time.

But that's your own fault for listening to radio.

[Krentistthedentist]

But that's your own fault for listening to radio.

And his fault for thinking they weren't pure shit in the first place.

[littlelionman]

But that's your own fault for listening to radio.

the songs are a bit overplayed. it's tough when you loved them before they were famous...

[arbee]

FUCK YOU KRENTIST YOU FUCKING FUCK ASSHOLE PIECE OF SHIT

[Krentistthedentist]

and why should anyone mock someone for their message board name? it's fairly clear that you were just being one of the mockers, and were not really concerned for my reputation on this board. quit acting like you were doing me a favor. :mad:

Of course I don't give a shit about your reputation and of course I was mocking your awful name, but that isn't to say I wasn't doing you a favor in the long-term.

[oasisfan]

I work at a grocery store that plays shit music all the time. Also it wasn't that bad at first it was catchy for a bit, kinda like Foster the People to me.

[arbee]

FTP are the worst

[Krentistthedentist]

Instant hate.

[oasisfan]

it was kinda nice at first, but jesus christ Pumped Up Kicks is horrible to me now.

[ChiCity]

i heard kesha in the grocery store today. shit changed my life

[oasisfan]

I hear nothing good in the store, ever really.

[ChiCity]

the songs are a bit overplayed. it's tough when you loved them before they were famous...

this is kinda how i feel about creed.

[Krentistthedentist]

you spin my head right round right round when you go down the frozen food aisle

[arbee]

no making fun of Dead or Alive k?

[oasisfan]

oddly one song we don't play. however "closing time" by Semisonic manages to play almost every night within an hour of closing time.

[ChiCity]

...by design.

[littlelionman]

Of course I don't give a shit about your reputation, but that isn't to say I wasn't doing you a favor.

i'm smart enough to know the difference between insults and constructive criticism. there was clearly nothing altruistic about what you said. if i took your advice and changed my name (which I won't), you would find other ways to mock me...which is sad, because all I've done is indicate that I am a fan of one band. you have no clue what I think of the countless other bands that exist, or about who i am as a person.

[Caseysitsallgood]

wait, do we think M&S are going to headline then? or even play the fest? I'm so lost...

but hey, it'sallgood!
