[neckermanncj]

Definately. I love Bowie, Depeche Mode, The Cure, and The Smiths.

you'd probably love the 1st day then, i mostly put those similar bands together

[overcookedbacon]

Besides the hypothetical reunions of Pavement and Neutral Milk Hotel (which already make this worth traveling to the other side of the world for), I would give up my limbs and possibly organs to go to this fantasy festival.

[back_blows]

There are a few bands I wouldn't mind seeing (SSU, R.E.M, Sonic Youth, The Cure). I probably would not go, because I don't want to sit through the rest of it:p

[thedaniel]

David Bowie
Pixies
The Strokes
Against Me!
Bomb The Music Industry!
Muse


I'd buy a ticket.

reunions of The Smiths & The Stone Roses too! :D

also the battle of Oasis & Blur would be interesting :D

[neckermanncj]

im reviewing the list and i can't imagine how EPIC Sigur Rós & Radiohead would be... i don't think i'd be able to handle it

[afterstasis]

the 1st and 4th day are mostly good, and the 2nd and 3rd days have a few gems.

however, i don't like fests and really don't have the cash to see bands that big anymore.

[kwami42]

I would faint if there was a music festival like this. I would give my right arm to see it.

[zeldazeppelin]

There are enough good bands that I would and would only listen when those good bands are on.

[Insane3]

Oh damn where is that?!

Edit: What a ****ing deception. I didn't read the whole intro, I thought it was real:(

[Alright_Computer]

Overall, I'd give it a 3.5 out of 5. The first day is solid with no duds at all and awesome bands like MBV, SSPU, Sonic Youth, Pixies, Bowie, and the Stone Roses, although I would choose MBV over the Police to headline. The second day is worse. It has only two bands I like (the Decemberists and Spoon) and quite a few bands I can't stand (Death Cab For Cutie, the Strokes, Snow Patrol, Oasis). The third day is marginally better than the first day if only for Pavement, the Flaming Lips, and MGMT. However, RATM as the headliners doesn't make me happy at all; I saw them at Lollapalooza and instantly wished I saw Wilco instead. The last day is very hit and miss for me. It has Beck (!!!), Wilco, Neutral Milk Hotel, Interpol, and the New Pornographers. On the other hand, it has Bloc Party and Arcade Fire, two bands I don't really like.

I would go to this festival, but to be honest I'd only be there for the whole day on the first and fourth days. The second and third days I'd only show up for select bands and then leave once their set was done.

How badly did Rage Against the Machine do?

[WhiffleBallTony]

I'd go just for MBV.

[Alright_Computer]

How badly did Rage Against the Machine do?

They weren't necessarily bad, it's just that I don't particularly like their music and I'm sure I would've enjoyed Wilco much more.

[Zidane]

It's really uneven and although I like a lot of the bands, I also hate a lot of the bands (The Cure in particular.) I also don't understand why Rage Against the Machine is headlining and not The Flaming Lips. They give a way better show than Rage ever could. Night 1 and 4 seem to be the best line ups. I'd go, but there would be some down time.

I would have to agree with this. They would have no live show if it weren't for the "OMGBREAKSTUFF" vibe. The Flaming Lips would be a much better choice IMO.

[DarkSide247]

I would definitely go. of Montreal, Radiohead, Bowie, The Cure, RATM, My Bloody Valentine, The Smiths, The Pixies, Sonic Youth, Strokes, Muse, Sigur Rós, The Shins, Wilco and Beck I find would make for a great festival.

[classicrockdude]

i might

[Grimman_Dark]

What's with all the RatM hate? I can't say I love them, but they're good.

Don't know if I could go to his festival, seeing as I haven't heard a single song from half these bands.

[Oscar-Rio]

There are some i enjoy, but for the most part i could skip a lot of those and not lose any sleep over it.

[neckermanncj]

i just put RATM as headliners beacuse they are the biggest band playing that day, also the other bands aren't in any particular order other than thats the way i listed them


also changed NMH to day 2 added Keane and added Broken Social Scene to day 4

[Bub]

Yes but just to see the bands I like then I leave.

[supernova1324]

My Bloody Valentine
The Stone Roses
Depeche Mode
R.E.M.
Pixies
The Cure
Sonic Youth
The Police
Neutral Milk Hotel
Oasis
Blur
Muse
Against Me!
The Flaming Lips
MGMT
of Montreal
Rage Against The Machine
Modest Mouse

I'd see these

[ryan12147]

sspu? im there... no questions asked :)

[clashcityrocker10]

Yeah, I'd go. I'm not a fan of all the bands on the list, but I do like a good amount of them.

[Coldplayer]

I would go. There are some bands I'm not interested in (Police, RATM and others), but enough that I must see. (Sigur Rós, Radiohead, Arcade Fire...)

[exittoanywhere]

I saw the first band. No. Dont need to read anymore.

saw the first band. yes. dont need to read anymore.

[Zeleii]

These bands = HELL NO :eek:
What's wrong with Interpol and Death Cab for Cutie and Sonic Youth?

[Parodygm]

Holy crap, that's a no brainer. If I collapsed and died after day one then I'd die a happy man.

[My name is Fez]

I know and like probably 50% of the bands, know OF and am interested in probably another 15%, know and don't like 10%. Then the rest I either don't know, or know the name and have never heard a single song.

So, absolutely.

[Gowienczyk]

Morello ruins it for me.

[WhiteManJohnson]

Kind of middle of the road for me. Equal distribution of hits and duds in there.

[jayou521]

Silversun Pickups
My Bloody Valentine
The Smiths
Depeche Mode
The Cure
The Police
The Strokes
Muse
Rage Against The Machine
Wilco
Interpol
Radiohead
I thought this was real when I first saw it, I was like :eek:

I'd love to see all these bands live.

[Demenise]

I would see the first day indefinitely and leave right after.

[neckermanncj]

i just put RATM as headliners beacuse they are the biggest band playing that day, also the other bands aren't in any particular order other than thats the way i listed them


also changed NMH to day 2 added Keane and added Broken Social Scene to day 4

i want to reiterate this, it got stuck on the bottom of one of the pages
