WE ARE EXCITED!! YAY TO RAGE – YAY TO NINE INCH NAILS – YAY TO WILCO – YAY TO RADIOHEAD – YAY TO THE RACONTEURS!!!!

Fortunately, there are a LOT of more-than-noteworthy acts to experience. Here are some of the others we are looking forward to, and some of the songs that grabbed our attention:

The Black Keys (Friday 8/1 4:15) - “Psychotic Girl” - Attack & Release

Battles (Saturday 8/2 6:30) - “Atlas” “Prismism”- Mirrored

MGMT (Saturday 8/2 3:30) - “Electric Feel” “Time To Pretend” - Oracular Spectacular

The Gutter Twins (Saturday 8/2 2:30) - “Idle Hands” - Saturnalia

Saul Williams (Sunday 8/3 5:00) - “Sunday Bloody Sunday” (yes, cover of the U2 classic) – but from an album called The Inevitable Rise and Liberation of Niggy Tardust…it definitely got our attention (in a good way).

Oh and YAY for the return of old musical friends!

Love and Rockets (Sunday 8/3 6:15)
