At a quick glance I'd say it's probably not as sexy a line-up as last year, but there are a lot of acts I'm very excited about seeing (and shooting): STP, Foos, Gogol Bordello, Sharon Jones, Go! Team, Iggy & The Stooges, Kanye, NIN. This is probably one of the most diverse festival lineups out there.
According to the press release I received, more acts will be added to the bill.
Tickets go on sale May 3rd.
Wait. I just noticed Shudder to Think is listed. Best!
Oh, and UNDERWORLD! I would go just to see them.
