It's too bad this is right before BM. The weekend before/after (at the very least) would have been a much better choice. Still...I hope I can swing it...

Just the thought of having Cafe Tacuba and the Cool Kids and Regina Spektor on the same bill blows my mind.

Does anyone know where the waste.uk tickets will be coming from, and when they will be mailed? One might as well wait till Sunday, since there's no way it'll sell out. I mean, especially if they're expecting 45,000 people.

Oh! it isn't as good as my hometown. When you visit it, you can feel the special emotion as me. So simple and so wonderful.

Single-day tickets are going on sale this week. http://www.sfoutsidelands.com/tickets/

Since Radiohead & Beck are both playing Friday night, I think I'll just go that day.

the single day tickets are well worth it, for about 100$ a pop.

Gonna bring my Djembe and enjoy the grooves! Bring lots of munchies and fluids as they will be charging a good sum for these things there! Also you will have to hit the bushes to enjoy your smoking as there will be" no smoking" signs and lots of "yuppies" so enjoy yourself and watch out for "50"
