Ya, this is definitely a pretty LAME lineup for a 3 day event.
Rage Against the Machine is about the only REALLY good band (a couple of others that would b ok to see as well) But over all - complete shite.
I wont be traveling to this event.

looks says – reply to this

104

It's like a Coachella rehash lineup from 2003.

I've never heard of a single one of those acts.
Kim says – reply to this

107

Perez, you obviously got the memo last–the line-up has been out for months.

Im sick and tired of you looking down on rock artists. Jut b/c you're shiteous Katy Perry and Robyn arent there doesnt make the event crappy.

COME ON…RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE AND NIN ARE PERFORMING! Far from "blah", my friend.

Day 3 looks good, the rest is crap
BOB says – reply to this

111

If anyone plans to go - check out Paul Green's kids perform (I saw they were performing twice) - they are amazing. There's a documentary out based on his Rock School. These 9- 15 year old kids will blow your mind with their uncanny Zappa covers. Incredible talent. If CJ is still with the band, you're in for a real surprise.

badass lineup… i wish i was going

radiohead, NIN, the kills, bloc party, gnarls barkley, kanye, the black keys, lupe fiasco, explosions in the sky, BSS, does it offend you yeah, foals, toadies, the ting tings, the raconteurs… i mean holy shit, i wish i could go and see all these amazing artists!!!

JP says – reply to this

113

Out of all those bands, only 3 are really worth it. Radiohead, Rage against the machine, and Nine inch nails.

Larry says – reply to this

117

Dude you suck, and i predict your so called music career will be over real soon (if in fact you do have one) because you don't know shit about music. This line up is pretty good, and judging by most of the posts you are the minority here fat boy.
Slap says – reply to this

118

Kinda lame.

Last one I went to in 1996, I got to see Metallica and Soundgarden.
Slap says – reply to this

119

I must have clicked a different link, because I didn't see RATM or NIN on the lineup.

Shit, I'd LOVE to see Rage.
Moonmoth says – reply to this

120

K'naan, Cadence Weapon & Gogol Bordello are all wicked, I would get tix just for those 3 acts.
Anna says – reply to this

121

YESSSSS I'm going to this! Theres nothing blah about it!
Organ says – reply to this

122

cat power, radiohead, RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE, the black keys, wilco, DEVOTCHKA, girl talk.

what are you saying, "kinda blah"?? stop listening to the fucking radio
alco says – reply to this

123

perez i love you but thats retarded. blah? radiohead, wilco, rage, kanye??? blah?? I think not.
odyss says – reply to this

124

I think you enjoy music with an element of cheese factor. Campy can be good but most of the music you endorse is just so bad. The line up is is what a good rock show should have. Not retarded 16 year olds who are tone deaf.
eh... says – reply to this

125

at least it's hella better than ACL this year
cody says – reply to this

126

The Lineup has been plastered all over the cta for at the very least a month…
Manda says – reply to this

133

You are such a massive tool. I'm fucking excited, but the I HAVE been. It was announced eons ago. What a stellar fucking line up! (Save for Kanye-he's a tool, too)
capta says – reply to this

134

just because your fag hag club and all those underage boys are not playing… it makes it blah? RAGE AGAINST THE FUCKING MACHINE DREW ONE OF THE BIGGEST CROWDS EVER TO COACHELLA LAST YOU YOU FUCKING MORON.

God, sometimes i am embarassed i read some of the garbage you post.
Lolly says – reply to this

135

Day 3 looks pretty good!!
wow says – reply to this

136

how you think a lineup including Foals, Bloc Party, CSS, The Raconteurs, The Go Team, The Ting Tings, The Enemy, Louis XIV, THe Cool Kids, RATM, Lupe Fiasco, Brand New, Does It Offend You Yeah?, John Butler Trio, Flogging Molly, Kanye West, Gnarls Barkley, Mark Ronson and Black Kids is blah is beyond me.

And you think you're sum hot shot advocate of music these days, get a grip mate.
jasin says – reply to this

137

PEREZ HAS NO TASTE IN MUSIC!!!!!!!
bloc party, mgmt, nin, ratm, the black kids, radiohead etc = blah!?!?!? you fucking queero perez you have no knowledge of good music
Tres says – reply to this

138

BLAH??? Are you fucking kidding me??? There's plenty of amazing there if you'd care to give them a good listen.
P says – reply to this

139

You're such a fucking asshole! the lineup came out april 7…..THE SCHEDULE came out TODAY you idiot… and kind of blah???? Radiohead, NIN and RATM are three of the most important bands of our generation. but oh! hey, i get it… Robyn nor Katy Perry are on the lineup, so i see why you wouldnt like it. This comes to show why you will NEVER be the most important man in the music business like you thought Pete Wentz was calling you, and how you're a fucking poser who's just interested in having your 15 minuts of fame.
kp says – reply to this

140

kinda blah? are you fucking kidding me? look at the lineup. the kills, brand new, manchester orchestra, ratm, radiohead? that's fucking amazing.
L says – reply to this

141

your an idiot. how can you say cat power, rogue wave, radiohead and the raconteurs are blah??
you have no taste in music whatsoever.
not to mention your way late.
E says – reply to this

142

KRIST says – reply to this

143

PEREZ YOU IDIOT. THE LINEUP WAS ANNOUNCED AGES AGO. BUT THANKS FOR LETTING US KNOW THAT THE *SCHEDULE* HAS BEEN ANNOUNCED!
rache says – reply to this

144

It's an awesome lineup! What the fuck's the matter with you Perez??? Damn I wish I could go!!!
ihave says – reply to this

145

I can't believe Robin's not headlining!!! You have no musical taste , this is the best line up ever.
PwMgP says – reply to this

146

It's sooooo much better than the ACL lineup.
Shann says – reply to this

147

CANT WAIT!!!!
luci says – reply to this

148

i can't believe you thing the lineup is blagh. it's nothing but huge bands!! you don't know what's up, perez.
chris says – reply to this

149

tip for anyone who goes to this, dont wait around to see kanye's lame ass on sunday. his show blows and he likely won't show up.
mike3 says – reply to this

150

Did you not just plug a show you did with the lamest band in human existance today Simple Plan? Exactly.
Shelb says – reply to this

151

perez are you mixing up schedule and lineup? the lineup was released in like march!…and radiohead alone could make it (and does) AMAHZING
Cass says – reply to this

152

Manchester Orchestra is sooooo gooooood.
rob i says – reply to this

153

You are out of your f'ing mind. there are 23 killer bands playing that show. if i had the money, i'd go. fortunately, most of them will be at Austin City Limits. Unfortunately, Radiohead and Rage won't be among them.
Maxim says – reply to this

154

Great, great lineup. As far as NIN and Kanye playing at the same time….Kanye will probably be an hour late, so everyone can watch NIN. PRoblem for Kanye is that once people start watching NIN they'll forget all about Kanye.
wanke says – reply to this

155

Mario,
did you ever stop to think that you might not be the target audience?

just because Madonna, Cher, the spice girls or Rick Astley aren't playing doesn't mean it sucks.
Taco says – reply to this

156

Are you fucking kidding me? Radiohead alone makes Lollapalooza worth attending. Great line-up.
your says – reply to this

157

the lineup is awesome. how could you think its just blah?
Me says – reply to this

158

I'm pretty sure I would give my left leg to be able to go.
lillo says – reply to this

159

anyone who says that this line up is bad is a fu*king idiot who doesn't actually appreciate music.

The line-up has been up for months, by the way, it wasn't just announced fucktards.
me says – reply to this

160

blah?? thats an amazing line up… we got this festival in oz it would be sold out in less than an hour!!
Geno says – reply to this

161

You have no idea what good music is! A stellar talented lineup.
sarah says – reply to this

162

ummm….RADIOHEAD is not blah!
Mark says – reply to this

163

Re: Yep I – My thoughts exactly… Just because "RiRi" or "Britni" aren't playing…. Give me a break. Perez doesn't have any taste… He's about as superficial and plastic as Pamela Anderson's tits. I don't care if he doesn't like the line up, but he certainly is no expert on good music…
Star4 says – reply to this

164

Perez - Get your shit together. The line-up has been out for a few months now. The SCHEDULE just came out today.
Rober says – reply to this

165

Looks like something PearAss would attend (all from the D-list!)
gwmj says – reply to this

166

i rarely disagree with you but this is a pretty great line-up. better than this year at coachella. i had a great time but the line up was much worse.
Jenni says – reply to this

167

There is nothing dull about Radiohead and Bloc Party, sorry they couldn't fit in the mainstream pop you love so much.
dfds says – reply to this

168

The Raconteurs are the shit. go fuck yourself.
colly says – reply to this

169

I would just go to see manchester orchestra and it would be soooo worth it.
Jocel says – reply to this

170

Looks good to me, are you kidding?
sab says – reply to this

171

weak. maybe bands should take a pay cut, lower ticket prices, which in turn will sell more seats and thus boost the economy.. just sayin
Liz says – reply to this

172

um ya know except for the fact that RADIOHEAD is on that list you fucking retard.you don't know shit about music, so just stick to talking shit about people you're jealous of.
britt says – reply to this

173

obvioulsy our llittle perezers isn't as hip on his music as he thinks he is…..that lineup kills a lot of other lineups i've seen so far this year…..he didn't even know who devendra banhart was before he went trashing him for dating natalie portman………for someone who claims to be a connoisseur of sorts, he really should brush up on his knowledge and quit it with the top 40 bullshit.
PDXpr says – reply to this

174

What are you smoking? That looks like a pretty stellar lineup to me!
MP says – reply to this

175

Yeah, it's kinda blah… not like they have Radiohead or The Raconteurs, or CSS, or Bloc Party, or Lupe Fiasco, or Wilco, or Rage Against the Machine, or Nince Inch Nails, or Mark Ronson, or Gnars Barkley, or Kanye FUCKING West. It's a crap show. Don't buy tickets.

You Idiot, Perez. I bet if Katy Perry was playing it'd be a whole different song, right?
Annie says – reply to this

176

All they did was take the Osheaga lineup and copy it.
victo says – reply to this

177

just because katy perry and robyn arent there doesnt make it blah. get good taste in music asshole
britt says – reply to this

178

Re: britt – also, katy perry isn't that special. i'm pretty sure any blind deaf retard could steal a jill sobule song idea and switch a few words around……and i know pete wentz said you were something special in the music industry, but hate to break it to you…………his band sucks. this lineup has been out for months. if you weren't so busy listening to cover songs on the radio you might know that. if you're gonna be an asshole on the internet at least know what you're talking about.
Ashle says – reply to this

179

The line up looks like a music DVD that would play at American Eagle.
jman says – reply to this

180

It would only be right if EVERYONE go see NIN at the time Kanye comes on and there are only 10 people left who would want to see his dochebagy overhyped bullshit of a set.
oh pe says – reply to this

181

the lineup has been up for AGES. they just put the schedule up today….

Radiohead is amazing enough to make up for any bad band performing.

Not fucking blah. KINDA FUCKING SWEET. Racountuers, MGMT, Broken Social Scene, Wilco, Kanye, Gnarles Barkley, Radiohead, it's fucking off the wall good!

sandr says – reply to this

196

in the midwest, this is a stellar line up - dont waste your time with kanye though - he fucked us at bonnaroo this year - playing two hours late - backstage munching on his ego spinach!
miche says – reply to this

197

i have never left a comment on this but to say this amazing line up is "kinda blah" is about as stupid as saying amy winehouse is straight edge
anon says – reply to this

198

are you kidding? what an incredible lineup. brand new, manchester orchestra, broken social scene, bloc party, radiohead, lupe fiasco, iron & wine, etce etc.. just because you havent heard of something (and post about shitty bands on your blog) doesn't make them blah. jesus fricking christ. get a little taste.

and yeah- this was posted ages ago.
