200 and the best thing they've booked is Devo? They're pretty good, but I really think that's too much for that lineup. I like VW and BoH a lot and I know people obsess over Sigur Ros... Is Wolfmother Australian? Yeah, I just would expect to see Radiohead, Flaming Lips, Sufjan, Jack Johnson, or even Death Cab, just more big name popular artists for 200 dollars...

well I like sigur ros, presets, vampire weekend, cold war kids, wombats, pnau, grates, band of horses, van she, panics, mstrkrft, lightspeed champion and the gin club. So that's 14 bands that I want to see and that's only the first lineup. This time last year there were about 3 bands that I was happy about so for me it is great.

But I can understand why you're upset Todd, no tegan and sara, kaki king, mandy moore, vanessa carlton, evanescence! Fuck not even the Veronicas dude! you must be ropable!

I agree, there's not any band there that I would consider going to see live by themselves for 10 dollars. 200 dollars is ridiculous for any festival.
