Im also glad that Phoenix is being represented at the festival with Landmine Marathon on the Damage Inc stage..........makes me happier that Im going......

Lineup just improved astronomically, with those two alone.
Makes me think how epic it would have been with a full bill of proper metal bands.

Damn right!

[ampman]

I think having all of the bands Metallica likes along with them is perfect.

Plus, Metallica has put out enough music that "isn't teh br00tal" to play along with some alternative bands.

Fans who came in because of Load/Reload will like the alternative bands (along with some other fans), and the rest will get to watch Suicidal Tendencies, AX7, Sepultura, Red Fang, etc.

I think they should add maybe one more big metal name tho. Another big name in any other genre wouldn't hurt either. But I am happy with the current band list.

Suicidal and Sepultura This thing gets better and better, can't wait... I hope Rob's joins his former bandmates on stage

Funny Eric Church is on the bill. I just saw him in concert last Thursday

Any good?

I was amazed to see that as well. Pretty much the only country act on the bill. He's one of the frontrunners of the new country (ala Jason Aldean, Luke Bryan, etc) that has been coming out for the past couple years. Really diverse acts for this festival, pretty cool.

[ARCH_STANTON1138]

Lucero has plenty of country in them as well........

[!!DM!!]

Any good?

I dont really like country music but I went with my girlfriend and ya he was actually pretty good made me a fan.

[Bartman]

Wooden Shjips are playing now?

I approve of this festival. Shame I can't go, y'know because of economic and geographical difficulties.

It's a beautiful, beautiful hipster fest.

Yeah, I thought I was watching a trailer for Bonnaroo. But I think it's really cool to have very different bands. That's the whole point of festivals for me. It's the best way to discover new bands...bands that you wouldn't listen to otherwise. Few of the artists on the trailer already caught my attention.

This is a bit extreme, though.

This festival needs more metal bands. You know, there are tons of great and unknown metal bands and I hope Metallica remember them as well.

I'm also excited to hear The Call of Ktulu live again.

Fucked Up are actually pretty great live. Saw them support Foo Fighters last year, tis just good punk music (well modern punk I should say). The singer really knows how to work a crowd, hardly spent any time on the stage when I saw them, spent most of his time running around the field singing with fans.

[lightning master]

Not sure if this is new or not, but Ghost are booked now apparently! Cool.

[Justice Rider]

I haven't heard! Good news their really cool. I knew they'll eventually be on cause James is a fan of theirs. Still want Machine Head and Mastodon on the bill.

It was just announced yesterday.....along with Letlive on the Damage Inc. stage, Don Jamieson and Jim Florentine from That Metal Show, and a surfing expo........

[flawless114]

so it' Metallica, Avenged Sevenfold, and a bunch of shit that I wouldn't even consider "music"....all so Metallica can boost their own ego. I'm a huge Metallica fan since I was little, but what is up with these guys the last few years? Only touring Europe, making up stupid music festivals with nothing but crap bands, this is bullshit...
