Yeah, I'm sure that would be great....if one had the money to do such things.

the way i see it is, if i was to see each of these bands individually, it would probably cost way over $150, and that includes the camping.

im pumped.

Wow. Now that's the kind of roster that I would consider camping out in a field to see (as opposed to Bonnaroo). That lineup is really really good. I wish I could go. It's just so far away.

hmm... that's certainly an opportunity to ponder.

now that i think about this event, i so want to go. I could use my federal tax return and fly up there and back, plus tickets and food and still have half my return. the problem is, i need to save all of my return. Had I not known about this event, my life would be content, but as it stands, i live in turmoil.

Don't forget Spiritualized, The Roots, Tortoise, and Underworld....They'll be there too. I like Thom's "Nein, No, Non" shirt in the advertisement I got. I heard the event is only $65 from someone who was considering going. To me, New York's about as plausible as Glastonbury.

That's the single day price. It's $150 w/camping initially. The price increases the longer you wait. I would expect this show to sell out quick.

yes, you were right. at 9:04am (10:04 NY time) the ticket price was already in the second price range.

but I still got one

AND IM GOING TO SEE FUCKING RADIOHEAD AND THE BEASTIE BOYS!!!!!

I'm so friggin' jealous. We'll be expecting a full report.

oh don't worry, there will be an essay posted on the FMB on june 9th. when i return, and i'll tell you all about how liz phair fell in love with me and we have crazy lesbian hippie sex in front of everyone in the bodypaint section.

until then, i will try to keep gloating to a minimum.

stalker, are you going to both days or just the first? My friend just got a ticket for me, and I was under the impression that the first and second day require separate tickets. I don't know...I'm really confused. All i know is that I'm getting to see Radiohead, and whoever else is playing on that day. I hope The Roots and Spiritualized are playing on that day too..

This should answer all your questions. Tickets are sold separately or together with or without a camping fee. Radiohead and Beck headline the first day and Sigur Ros and Beastie Boys the second.

Once again, all of you who are going suck.

I got a ticket to both days. radiohead is on the first day and spiritualized is playing that day too. i think the roots are on the next day, though. not positivo, though.

i had a dream about it last night im so pumped.

one of my friends is going...he bought his tickets today.....im very jealous

sigur rose- what the fjuck?
beck, beasties-what the funk?
radiohead-what the "where the fuck did the guitars go"?
i wonder if this will hurt bonnaroo northeast.

grrrrr...we should kill him and steal his. he alread willed me his potential future '72 telecaster in the event of his untimely death, so i win twice on this deal.

we should pull a tonya harding and fuck him up hardcore.....

I guess you haven't heard "Hail to the Theif". They're back, baby.

***sighs*** i would sure love to go to this...but...ummm...yeah.
can you say "no money dogg!"
