They definitely loaded up on talent this year and I'm so glad that they did. The fact that Monotonix and BLK JKS is on the bill is a pleasant surprise (both are great foreign bands) but the headliners of Nine Inch Nails, Janes Addiction, and TV on the Radio, plus Fleet Foxes, Erykah Badu, M. Ward, and the Yeah Yeah Yeah's has my skin tingling as well. And you can get all of this for $154 if you act fast on the last day of the month.

Erykah Badu should have M.I.A. as her surprise guest so that they can do a new moms set together!

All bow to Jane's Addiction, because without them the magnitude of this festival would not even be possible.
