    Strong lineup! Great poster! Don't like the headliners, but the rest of the lineup would make we want to go.

    Lineup and price both make this a well put together fest so far.

    If this was in Kansas City, Kansas, it'd be no question. But I'd go anyways.
    I thought we had a real moment when I was finger banging you during Ghosts N' Stuff.

    I'm sorry. Not feeling this one, which is too bad because I really liked the previous versions of this fest. The poster looks great, though.

    While I'm not a huge fan of the headliners, there's enough on the rest of the lineup (especially on Saturday) to get me there. Great poster as well.

    My favorite poster. Would certainly go for Jay-Z, Pulp, REM, Supertramp, PJ Harvey and fun.

    Had to take a close look to spot the gems (Suicide, Teddybears, The Wedding Present) that tipped the balance. ie That's a yes.

    Headliners: 3 for 4
    Subs: 11 for 22
    Undercard: 39
    Location: meh. At least it’s close.
    Price: pretty damn reasonable for a huge 4 day fest like this if you ask me.
    Comments: very weak saturday for my tastes. but points for moz & slowdive and closing out w/ elton & billy would be super fun.
    I want you!

    Crossroads
    Headliners = 4/4
    Subs = 13/16
    Undercard = 39 acts I would like to see
    Essential Acts = 15 (R.E.M., Elton John & Billy, Coldplay, The Killers, Wye Oak, I'm From Barcelona, Mumford & Sons, Wilco, Local Natives, Jonsi, Explosions In The Sky, Kid Cudi, Morrissey, Guided By Voices, James Blake)
    Location = 1st place (4 hour drive)
    Price = 4th place
    At this point in the contest I would be interested in attending this festival. (I will do a much more in-depth review after the schedules are released.)
