Oh shit man. The Make-Up is such a great band. You're going to love them.

[shotglass75]

I had to look up this guy. I found this.

Who the HELL are the Stone Roses???? How the hell are they headlining??? WEAK!!!!!!! At least I will have some time to see other acts as I won't be wasting my time with this drivel. /rant

I guess when you absolutely know nothing about music you are going to think other people don't know squat either.

Stone Roses are fucking horrible, I'm entitled to my opinion. I could care less what the fuck you think about music or anybody else for that matter. After reading your other posts I realized it was a joke. Also, why isn't Nick getting flamed for the SAME reply? You guys are hilarious.

[microcuts]

That first one is probably true. And Vampire Weekend guy should have stuck with acting.

Just playing dude. Give em a try.

I honestly did give them a try even before the lineup was out since everyone was talking about them possibly being booked. Just not my type of music, I really don't think they are horrible I just can't see myself spending my Friday night listening to this stuff. I also think a little of it comes from the plain and simple fact that they should not be a headlining act at Coachella. That being said I LOVE the undercard we got this year so I guess it's a little trade off from last year's great headliners and weak undercard. Hope you guys enjoy them I'll probably be at Jurassic 5
