6. Gang Gang Dance
7. Mastodon (although I doubt the people I’m going with will want to see them)
8. Henry Rollins?…uhh…awesome.
9. Beirut
10. TV on the Radio

Top 10 reasons why I’m disappointed:

1. No Blur
2. No Animal Collective (however I’ll be seeing them this spring…but still!)
3. Possibly a Leonard vs. Paul stage timing
4. Patton and Rahzel? No Faith No More? C’mon Mike!
5. No She & Him
6. Will Amy Winehouse live long enough to perform?
7. Possible TV on the Radio vs. Fleet Foxes stage timing
8. Expen$ive
9. Where’s Basement Jaxx, Chemical Bros, Orbial, Underground?
10. Crystal Method? srsly?

I wonder who the March surprise will be…

Anyone else got any thoughts on this?

Henry Rollins – Horses

Gang Gang Dance – Blue Nile
