seeking "blend of success, credibility", chops a must.

― Johnny Fever (johnny fever), Tuesday, 9 March 2004 17:49 (twenty-two years ago)

Please, God, no, NOT a Loretta/Jack duetty thing. Spare her some dignity.

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Tuesday, 9 March 2004 17:51 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh, ha! I predicted the Cure without even reading the article.

― Johnny Fever (johnny fever), Tuesday, 9 March 2004 17:52 (twenty-two years ago)

Frightening thought if they're on there. I want my three hour sets!

"What I really want to tell you is that most of the artists that commercial alternative radio broke in the late '90s suck and are over," he offers. "If you want to program anything with substance, you're dealing with artists that have some kind of meaning and legacy, and ultimately, they're all going to be perceived as old, other than Jack White and a few others."

I find this funny.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 9 March 2004 17:56 (twenty-two years ago)

Totally. With D4v3 Gr0hl on drums of course.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Tuesday, 9 March 2004 17:58 (twenty-two years ago)

Then I'm there.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 9 March 2004 17:58 (twenty-two years ago)

Just think: they could get any number of Anticon guys.

Scary, huh?

I'd actually go if only to see Willie and Morrissey, who I have never seen before....Sonic Youth and Flaming Lips I like live alot as well....(although FL's needs some new live schtick ASAP)...don't know alot about String Cheese, I think they are a jam band.

Aren't the Pixies reunion rumored to be headling w/Sonic Youth?.....That would be cool, but not as cool as Willie Nelson/Moz....

― M@tt He1geson (Matt Helgeson), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 16:06 (twenty-two years ago)

Jess wins (tho I'd sub in Truly for Green Apple Quickstep).

― David R. (popshots75`), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 18:09 (twenty-two years ago)

these lineups look like they'd be more approrpiate for lollapalooza 1994. but i suppose anything is better than the emo/pop-punk/nu metal craptacular that would go down if they tried to appeal to the kiddies and their parents money.

― bill stevens (bscrubbins), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 18:17 (twenty-two years ago)

If NIN, the Pixies, and SY are playing Lollapalooza this year, not only will I go, but I will strip completely naked, smear my entire body with peanut butter and black olives, and run multiple laps around my neighborhood for six straight hours screaming "I'm a purple leprechaun" in a display of pathetic fanboy glee.

― latebloomer (latebloomer), Wednesday, 17 March 2004 06:45 (twenty-two years ago)

Though I'm not sure in what sense you meant that list, christhamrin, Juliette Lewis's band is actually playing the Warped tour.

NIN is NOT doing lolla 2004... i am almost 100% sure of this.. Who the fuck wants to see morrisey, he is an old man. And the cure is friggin goth rock. The 2003 lineup will be hard to beat...

― Mikey Tysh, Tuesday, 23 March 2004 00:00 (twenty-one years ago)

Skipping 87 messages at this point... Click here if you want to load them all.

hey Ned and Diablo, you guys are idiots for bashing SCI

I shall proceed to lose a couple of milliseconds of sleep tonight over your complaints.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 2 April 2004 00:16 (twenty-one years ago)

and if you attend Lolla 2004 you will be amazingly surprised at the String Cheese fans... they will appear in full force and be quite vocal

no doubt...this almost seems like a veiled threat at Ned and Diablo....keep one eye up homiez (and rock the hemp kevlar at Lollapalooza if you go)....I know Ned always stays strapped (and beats up homeless people) so he should be fine...

― M@tt He1geson (Matt Helgeson), Friday, 2 April 2004 00:17 (twenty-one years ago)

I know Ned always stays strapped (and beats up homeless people)

No, I just knife hobos. I could however knife String Cheese fans. And string cheese fans at that -- I never saw the appeal.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 2 April 2004 00:18 (twenty-one years ago)

what's the difference between hobos and homeless people? (or hobos and jam band tour people)?

― M@tt He1geson (Matt Helgeson), Friday, 2 April 2004 00:22 (twenty-one years ago)

SLIPKNOT
KORN
INCUBUS

Any lineup that includes Korn is the real joke, brother.

― Nichole Graham (Nichole Graham), Friday, 2 April 2004 00:26 (twenty-one years ago)

They could call it the SKI tour.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 2 April 2004 00:26 (twenty-one years ago)

what's the difference between hobos and homeless people? (or hobos and jam band tour people)?

Usually, working showers.

― Nichole Graham (Nichole Graham), Friday, 2 April 2004 00:27 (twenty-one years ago)

what's the difference between hobos and homeless people? (or hobos and jam band tour people)?

I don't go around knifing homeless people, that's cruel. But hobos, you know, that's different.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 2 April 2004 00:27 (twenty-one years ago)

well, you've got to have your principles

― M@tt He1geson (Matt Helgeson), Friday, 2 April 2004 00:29 (twenty-one years ago)

They could call it the SKI tour.

The choices would be rather limited at the concession stand, though.

― Nichole Graham (Nichole Graham), Friday, 2 April 2004 00:30 (twenty-one years ago)

well, you've got to have your principles

I'll have your principle FOR BREAKFAST.

>what's the difference between hobos and homeless people?

The former get bylines.

― Dock Miles (Dock Miles), Friday, 2 April 2004 02:28 (twenty-one years ago)

RE: "Ticket prices are looking to come significantly down from last year."

Yeah, but if it's a 2-day festival, it will obviously cost more to see all of the bands anyway.

― billstevejim, Friday, 2 April 2004 05:24 (twenty-one years ago)

I only knife hobos if they're dressed better than me, which makes me a serial killer

― Donna Brown (Donna Brown), Friday, 2 April 2004 05:31 (twenty-one years ago)

not so headliners should be...

The Mars Volta
Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks
Nada Surf
The Postal Service
The Unicorns (oh yes)
Quasi

― Sean Lawrence, Sunday, 4 April 2004 21:02 (twenty-one years ago)

The internet certainly brings out all the musically illiterate people. If you don't know SHIT about music SHUT UP!!! eg. sonic youth is crap, morrisey is irrelavent. You people suck and have know concept of a musical community with a diverse line up. Sure Lolla has sucked really bad...for a long time...but this is good news for music. There is 24 plus bands to still be announced so how could you complain!! Maybe if you went to Lollapaloza 1991 and saw the impact it had on music (grunge movement?) you would get it. But you weren't born yet and are hooked on X-games. Have fun at the Warped Tour!! Losers

― r u serious, Monday, 5 April 2004 21:10 (twenty-one years ago)

The internet certainly brings out all the musically illiterate people.

As opposed to being functionally illiterate...

― El Diablo Robotico (Nicole), Monday, 5 April 2004 21:18 (twenty-one years ago)

and if you attend Lolla 2004 you will be amazingly surprised at the String Cheese fans... they will appear in full force and be quite vocal.

I'm sure they will be. The only thing worse than dirty smelly hippies is loud dirty smelly hippies.

― El Diablo Robotico (Nicole), Monday, 5 April 2004 21:19 (twenty-one years ago)

Maybe if you went to Lollapaloza 1991 and saw the impact it had on music

oh I was there in those fateful times! when music mattered, maaaaan! I remember when they warned us about the brown acid...and then Living Color came on and told us the New Jersey Turnpike was closed...

― M@tt He1geson (Matt Helgeson), Monday, 5 April 2004 21:25 (twenty-one years ago)

also, seeing Butthole Surfers doing "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes" for the first time will always be one of my most treasured memories...

― M@tt He1geson (Matt Helgeson), Monday, 5 April 2004 21:27 (twenty-one years ago)

Hah, did they actually do that? I remember little of their set, it was very warm.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 5 April 2004 21:53 (twenty-one years ago)

I remember them firing an air rifle, and that's about it.

― El Diablo Robotico (Nicole), Monday, 5 April 2004 21:55 (twenty-one years ago)

Oh yeah, that's right -- except apparently here they fired off an actual shotgun.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 5 April 2004 21:57 (twenty-one years ago)

KORN

― bill stevens (bscrubbins), Monday, 5 April 2004 22:00 (twenty-one years ago)

God damn keyboard.

Anyway, I was at that crappy lollapalooza where korn dropped out due to drummer having spinal meningitis or something like that. apparently the communication within the korn fan club is pretty poor because there were about a hundred pissed off korn fans/frat boys and they made their displeasure manifest by being a drunken, unruly lot and repeatedly calling the lead singer of james a homo.

― bill stevens (bscrubbins), Monday, 5 April 2004 22:02 (twenty-one years ago)

james and korn on the same bill...that's nuts...

― M@tt He1geson (Matt Helgeson), Monday, 5 April 2004 22:18 (twenty-one years ago)

ok, i agree with anyone who says the line up sucks, its terrible, about the only band i would go to see is the flaming lips, but im not willing to sit around all day to wait for one band i sort of like. As much as i realize that fantasizing of great tour headliners is over, this would be mine.

Tool
NIN
Radiohead
30 Seconds to Mars
The Mars Volta
The Music
team sleep

now thats a real alternative tour.

― bryce, Sunday, 11 April 2004 15:52 (twenty-one years ago)

http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1486303/20040409/farrell_perry.jhtml?headlines=true

"Although it was risky, I was absolutely sure we should build one lineup that incorporated the jam culture, because I experienced it and felt it was ready. Maybe once in a decade there will be a musical movement that is indicative of what is really going on. And in the jam community [as opposed to the indie-rock scene], I felt like the music was leading and the media was following."

Farrell's hoping to create some electronic-rock hybrids of his own with an electronic-music tent that will also feature live musicians who happen to drop by.

With a lineup that promises to expand greatly as the show's first show, July 14 at Seattle's White River Amphitheatre, nears (Gomez and Black Rebel Motorcycle Club have been added to the initial list of artists), a single day just wasn't enough. So Farrell is stretching this year's Lolla experience across two days — a plan he expects will enhance the caravanlike aesthetic.

After the first day's festivities are over, Farrell hopes concertgoers will reconvene at a downtown club to continue the party. He's even expecting some fans to attend multiple shows in different cities and is looking into creating multiple-show packages that include hotel accommodations.

The cutting edge!

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Sunday, 11 April 2004 20:02 (twenty-one years ago)

why not the levellers?

― keith m (keithmcl), Monday, 12 April 2004 00:50 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm telling ya, Green Apple Quick Step's time is now.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 12 April 2004 00:52 (twenty-one years ago)

Farrell's hoping to create some electronic-rock hybrids of his own with an electronic-music tent that will also feature live musicians who happen to drop by.

"This year we're building a place on-site that will be especially for electronic music, but it's going to have a setup that includes Fender amps, keyboards and a percussion area," he said. 'Musicians can come and jam with electronic artists, which should add a new spin on things.'

This sounds like it has an outside chance of being excruciatingly awful at every single venue.

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Monday, 12 April 2004 01:16 (twenty-one years ago)

It's kinda funny -- and almost touching, really -- how Farrell clings to certain notions about musical hybridization and cross-cultural dialogue that may have seemed provocative ten years ago but now look corny or utterly obvious now.

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Monday, 12 April 2004 01:19 (twenty-one years ago)

Well it's funny you should say all that because I remember him trying that very thing with the aftershow club/get-together/whatever type thing in the midnineties with at least one Lollapalooza, but I can't remember the exact name or tied in with the festival it was. So you, sir, are OTM. (I think Traci Lords headlined one night!)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 12 April 2004 02:05 (twenty-one years ago)

Black Rebel Motorcyle Club may have a more annoying fanbase than Interpol even!

― Lil' Fancy Kpants (The K is Silent) (ex machina), Monday, 12 April 2004 17:02 (twenty-one years ago)

You people are way too bitchy....do you like anything?

― tg-611, Tuesday, 13 April 2004 17:23 (twenty-one years ago)

We like you. Intensely.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 13 April 2004 17:34 (twenty-one years ago)

In fact, you're doing an artistic performance with one piece of your body, I dont know wich one yet, while listening your favorite music.

In other Lollapalooza news, experimental rock act Wolf Eyes will appear on
the tour's second stage, at the behest of Sonic Youth principal Thurston
Moore. "I told our agent, 'just give me three bands I can book [for the
tour],' and so far he's given me one, or one-and-a-half," Moore jokes to
Billboard.com.
