This is par for the course with some of the second wave adds in past years. One notable sub, two notable mid-card acts, and a few much smaller bands.
if Andrew WK shows up and sings for Marky, that'd be fucking sick (btw he's probably not, Riot just released a band picture with the current singer Johnny)
just saw coolio on july 4th! the 90s dance party (coolio, montell jordan, young mc, tone loc, & color me badd) did a free show downtown .. fun time, coolio was definitely the highlight!
Still a little bitter about the year Marky was supposed to do a Ramones set with the Bouncing Souls at Riot. And then cancelled.
Were Night Spice always there? It's a band with former members of a local metalcore band called El Famous. They are more electronic and less screaming than their former band.
I saw Coolio at one of those I Love the 90s nostalgia tours and he was fine. This might be a more fun environment to check him out at though. Might watch TBS if time allows too, but I was already sold on the lineup.
if you guys try a wall of death during Gangsta's Paradise, it's very possible he will leave the stage
He was the only artist EVER vocally against Weird Al doing a parody of their song... you are a brave man
So it was true, they were waiting for the Taking Back Sunday Chicago show to announce the 2nd wave. I would say Im a little dissapointed but with the great line up we have already I cant complain
Holy fuck I’m so happy about TBS getting added to Friday. MCR + TBS + Bleachers + Placebo + Lucky Boys Confusion all in one day…yes please
Totally jumping to conclusions but Sunday has 3 more bands than Saturday and 2 more than Friday.. maybe even more get added
riot is retweeting a bunch of bands that are putting up the new poster, and a few are saying 'full lineup' so looks like this is it barring cancelations and replacements
Mostly underwhelming adds for me, but Cumgirl8 is a cool addition and watching Coolio for Gangster's Paradise would probably be fun.
cumgirl8 should be interesting live! Pretty rough-production synthy punk from NY. The thought of watching them mid-morning outdoors under the sun is a little disorienting haha
I'm sure whatever program is spying on my work computer is beeping like a motherfucker every time I type Cumgirl8
Would be funny if some random unannounced band would go on one of the stages and after a minute or so CM Punk would come out and beat the hell out of them, then announcing their replacements: EVE 6!
TBS was obvious and I think it's cool I'll finally get to see Marky and the best Ramones cover band if it doesn't conflict with anything else.. I could totally see him showing up during the Misfits set since he played with Doyle & Jerry for a bit
