OMG, we have another brainiac in the thread now....

So, what you're saying is that once a station is off the air for a couple months, despite having a 20+ year run on the air and were pivotal in showcasing artists that no one else would play, their 'flow is gone'? Where do u want me to begin???

Before you were even 10 yrs old and nowhere near old enough to get into Buzz, it got shut down by authorities for several months (in fact, this happened on 2-3 separate occasions over the years). < And THAT is why Buzz goes by the name Cubik- Nation didn't want the heat of having the Buzz name attached to their club (just a little bit 'o history for ya). If we go by your 'formula', I guess that means they woulda lost their flow too, and you've been living a lie for so long.... (sarcasm) Trust me-if there never was a WHFS station, there would be no Buzz in DC. Know your roots.

Again, I understand your lack of interest in this lineup based on your age- like I said, this lineup appeals a lot more to an older crowd, which is fine by me. If it actually attracts an older crowd, it would be even better. The 1st HFStival or 2 were really good, but then the young rednecks & young kids from the outer counties all found out about it and started coming. Dumb kids who think its cool to crowd surf and slam dance to even the slowest of ballads. Even dumber were the guys who think its cool to molest and / or strip the girls who went up to crowd surf. If this lineup can keep morons like that away, power to them.

Back in the day, I knew a lot of the bands of the Vans Warped tour, but since I've been listening to EDM for about 85% of the past decade, and since I've moved to Toronto I've hardly gone to any concerts (as opposed to my 1-5 live shows/ week in DC), I've lost touch w/a lot of new acts. I'd be lucky if I recognised 3 acts on the (very large) Warped tour lineup last year, but in no way would I say 'it sucked' just cuz I wasn't familiar with the bands.

In a way, I'm glad the EDM tent won't have any acts I'm incredibly interested in, so as not to lure me away from the main stage. Besides, from friends who have attended in the past where the Buzz tent was present, the idea of spending time in a hot steamy white tent w/a buncha young kids trying to use glowsticks in the daylight, is something I am comfortable missing out on.

I don't know about you all but who want's an all "old" crowd that partied when we were "10 years old"

i agree with the lineup being weak. Some good ones in there . . . but you wont see me cramped in a sea of sweaty half naked rednecks for that lineup.

foo fighters and jimmy's chicken shack are good but as far as billy idol?? His time is over. No need to see an old man croak white wedding.

how about green day, story of the year, yellowcard, john mayer, blink 182, CKY, paul oakenfold

So do you think that these acts are all little kids like you?

Give it up- U can't win this one.

The Godmother has spoken.

yea green day was insane.

ill pass on partying with the over the hill gang, because obviously those bands are OLD so let the OLD people go and have a little woodstock fiesta

Little puppy can't party with the big dogs....

and can't admit that the other artists he named aren't ANY younger.
Can't admit that just cuz he has no clue who many of these legendary acts are, it does not make a shitty lineup.

I've been doing a little research on these bands I'm not familiar with that you suggested, and here's another little tidbit for ya- Story of the Year has a song feat. guest vocals from Ray Cappo of Youth of Today, & Toby Morris from H20, both from my generation. I was going to Youth of Today shows when u were just a concept in your mommas mind. Obviously, THEY dont seem to think that they're 'washed up' either.

Again, without these people (and this station) to lay the groundwork, there wouldn't be any HFStival, whether u like the lineup this year or not.

Don't forget- one day you will get 'old' too, and hopefully u will come across a little brat with an arrogant attitude to remind you how you were when u were once a kid...

H20 is a kickass band. Saw them at warp tour a long time ago.

My old roommate grew up with those guys. When they toured thru here a few years ago, i got their very last copy of a picture disc they were selling, and got it autographed by the whole band. Nice collector's item...

Thats cool and all, but the lineup still sucks!


But for all who are going, have a GREAT time and be safe! =-)

Did someone say something relevant?

Nope, didn't think so.

Ya still cant back up anything.

go play in your sandbox & dont forget to share your toys.

EOD & thread closed. :P

lol- u changed your reply.

I'll give you credit for that at least.

Sounds like someone might be.... Might... be maturing as we speak!

Nah, It still would suck. I'm just trying to clarify to everyone I'm not hating on HFS, Just merely noting that the lineup is indeed a weak one, Probably the weakest I've ever seen it.
