I’ve been having some issues getting any new postings up on the main page, but it looks like that the bug is finally fixed. So why not post some festival news:
The Vegoose festival has announced this year’s line-up, and it looks like Superfly is continuing the festival trend of mixing several big rock acts with a variety of mid-size bands of the jam and indie set, sprinkled with some classic hip-hop. With the success of Langerado this past spring and Bonnaroo this summer, Vegoose is clearly hoping this type of mix bodes well for ticket sales. We’ll see how the jam kids and indie rock folks mix it up in Vegas, but LMM’s take is that it’s a pretty decent line-up…
