Who's going?

I MIGHT be in if I can find someone from Fargo to come meet me there. I will be in Washington DC on vacation until the 7th and then fly to Chicago early on the 7th.

There was a leaked list for 60 bands. Apparently they put in UP TO 6 names not appearing, to keep people guessing.

The headliners aren't as powerful as in the past (IMO) but the mid-tier acts are much better.

Lots of solid bands. I'll go out on a limb and state that Depeche Mode will surpise a lot of people with how good their show is.

Would love to see:

Neko Case
TV on the Radio
Sam Roberts (CanCon)

Probably in.

A couple of cousins fly in from Houston every year with 3-day passes and stay at my crib. Wasn't able to go with them last year cause of work but I'm in for at least one of the days this year.

bolded = reasons I would go.

Also, I love Depeche Mode, but I bet they sound like shit these days. I wouldn't want to be disappointed.

They are in their mid 40s... that is not old. They should sound just fine.

TOOL is the best band on the planet. Enjoy the show !
