I really like Wrister. They sent me a demo ages ago along with another CD of an old band Despite All This (I think). Both were great. I'd love to see them!

OK, Tony at No Idea just confirmed my new band STD (Stone Temple Douchebags) will be HEADLINING this year's Fest.

No Idea put the re-united Misfits (with Glenn), Replacements, Fugazi and Negative Approach shows on the backburner to accomodate us.

It took months to negotiate the deal, and I know Tony had some heartburn about some of the backstage inclusions on our standard rider (green M&M's, Sponge Bob & Squidward butt plugs, 6 assorted barnyard animals, three brown midgets and 2 dozen McRib(TM) sandwiches), plus the all-expense-paid trip to Sea World's Seal Sanctuary (doiiingggg!!!!) - but we are on like Donkey Kong!!!

If you would like to open for STD, please include as part of your application submittal nude pictures of your grandmother with the Green Bay Packers.

i remember last year there was a lot of speculation that witches with dicks were going to break up after last year's Fest.... somebody please come to my rescue and tell me that the band that is witches with dicks is in fact alive and well... and im loving the iron chic demo as well

I'm going to admit, i knew about 40% of the bands on the confirmed list, so I decided when I bought my ticket that I would listen to every confirmed band.
So far I've made it through the letter F, and I've already found some bands that I'm absolutely in love with (Armalite, Daggermouth, Gatorface).
I just wanted to be able to go to see any band at the Fest and already know what I'm heading into.
