very solid line-up. great variety this year.

[strong woman]

This looks awesome!

[Over 50]

And only $250+ for the 4 day pass ..

[pjdutchville]

The "surviving members" of the Grateful Dead? How ironic.

[Schnozzy]

Yes! Finally!!!

[Where is my bong]

The Grateful Dead and Dylan.........and you thought you saw drug overdoses last year.

[barbershopgirl87]

250 dollars for that line up? outrageous!!!!!

[oj simpson]

This is a great lineup!!! I'm checking out Man Man because their sets are a crazy awesome mess, and Girl Talk cause their latest album is amazing. You can buy it for whatever you think its worth online.

[Whuteva]

I agree with some of the others. Very strong line up. Sounds like a great weekend!

[cynical]

And you thought LAST YEAR was a drug fest.........

[Where is my bong]

That is a terrible lineup. Not even close to being worth $250. However, the money you'll save on dope for the weekend makes it worth it. Ohhhh the contact buzz. You can't beat it.

Over 100,000 un-bathed hippies sitting in the hot sun...NO THANKS!

[Marla]

WOOOO I can't wait to go!

[larry]

What a joke! Why would aanyone waste that much money on a couple of acts that are that old? Then see a bunch of other bands that mtv wouldnt even put on lol Waste of money..Should of got Axl Rose and his band. Or what about kid rock or eminem?

[RAB]

They should rename it the "pot fest" as that's all that's gonna be in the air with these folks playing.

[Schnozzy]

If you don't like the music or the people, why do you bother to post on this forum. Stay out of it. It's not like we go and bash on you for what you like to do. The Dead is an AWESOME band. Gov't Mule is some of the best blues/ jam band I have heard in a long time. Ani DeFranco, Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, great music, even though they are considered vagina music. Oh and for FOB that says unbathed hippies, that's just gross. I am far from a hippie and they do supply MANY SHOWERS!

Youre thinking of White-Trash-Meth-Fest. Thats in August, somewhere in Detroit.

I hear they have 'wife-beatin' and 'free dental care' tents. Sounds like a real hoot!

How many hippies does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

...they dont screw in lightbulbs, they screw in sleeping bags.

Stop with all the negativity. This festival brings a lot of money into West Michigan's economy. All of the local gas stations and markets will benefit from this. I hope it is a huge success. I have never heard of most of these bands myself but if this is what the kids are listening too - GREAT!! I hope they have twice as many people this year. It was well organized last year.

I'm sure you'd rather spend $250 to watch a bunch of cars make left turns around a track
