A friend sent me this. Apparently, that is a lineup or potential line up for appears to be a potential concert. Anybody heard any thing about this? I am rather skeptical but there is a website up so its kinda real.....

Is it just me, or does that lineup seem ridiculously improbable. That and I thought "SoundGarden" was two words and "Off Spring" was one...

Well some of those bands are confirmed for summer sonic or fuji rockfest (I forget which one is around the same time) so I think some of those bands could happen. I am also aware of the woodstock bars, been to a couple of them but that doesn't help much with this.

You'd be wrong about Soundgarden and right about The Offspring.

Awesome line up, I'd pay big bucks to see all those bands.



I wonder if it's really plausible to get them all here.


I wonder who I'd have to screw to get my band on as one of the side-stage acts.



Edit: This also appears to be happening August 13th-15th.

It's a brilliant lineup! Don't worry, I'm sure Britney and/or Justub Beiber will come to Korea soon enough so you can get your fix.

Do not put any faith in show line ups announced this early.

It has happened many times before where a festival announces some stellar line up where the actual acts may or may not be totally confirmed.

They announce early to stir up interest.

Usually, the really big acts pull out, cancel, or were never really confirmed in the first place.

Sorry to burst anyone's bubble, but until you actually see that group take the stage, I wouldn't make any great bets on them showing up.

It's just from experience here.
