Why is my timing off?  I'll be in California 2 weeks before this show.  If only.....oh can't go back again 2 weeks later

It's cool that they're playing there again but I'm very bummed I'll miss BSB this year.  It's the first BSB I've missed since 1998.
I'd also like to see Heart and Queens of the Stone Age and Jenny Lewis and Elvis Costello.
Sigh.

The good news for us east coasters is that there will be a live stream.  The quality of last year's stream was pretty good (GNR wasn't) and only 5 dollars a night.  I'm sure they'll offer something similar this year.  This year's lineup is a huge upgrade. 

[Tired Eyes]

This year's lineup is a huge upgrade.

While I'm bummed I'm going to miss BSB this year, I disagree with this.  MMJ, Heart, Jenny Lewis, Elvis Costello, and Queens of the Stone Age should be terrific.  But fun. is one of the worst bands on the planet.  And last year's Neil was with Crazy Horse while this year's is CSNY.  I'll take Neil & CH over CSNY any time.
Last year's lineup also included Jack White, The Flaming Lips, Guns N' Roses (bad on Saturday but better on Sunday), Sarah McLachlan, Lucinda Williams, Steve Martin and the Steep Canyon Rangers, k.d. lang and the Siss Boom Bang, and Gary Clark Jr.  Foster The People provided a nice break so folks could get some food/drink and take a bathroom break.  I was there last year and had a great time at the shows.

It's all good.  Everyone has their opinions.  I thing the Lips are lame and I prefer the White Stripes over Jack's solo stuff.  Adding MMJ and Elvis Costello into a lineup with CSNY and the Killers is pretty solid imo.  Obviously the Horse is better than CSNY, but Neil can play with a high school band and I'm going to love it. 

[Tired Eyes]

I like the Flaming Lips and the Killers do nothing for me whatsoever.  Too bad for you that you prefer the White Stripes to Jack solo...cause I doubt very much the White Stripes will ever be a band again.  Like you said...everyone has their opinions.

[adam_pliskow]

I guess what it comes down to is that MMJ is on the lineup and that makes it great!

Hoping for another 3 day/no repeats run announcement this week.  It was one year ago this week that PC was announced.   
Which will it be?  Louisville, KY or Port Chester, NY .  I'm hoping for PC, but my gut is telling me KY.

I think the lineup is awesome - with the exception of fun.  I'll be in the bar during their set.

Tom Waits has been added to the Sunday lineup.

The Killers have pulled out of Saturday's show and have been replaced by Jack Johnson.  Don't know if that makes a difference to some of you.
